What was there to hate about it? Seemed solid to me, just a walk down memory lane for the cast, they kept it light hearted and non controversial.


I enjoyed it, but I was expecting a show with new skits, lines, etc. I wasn't expecting it to be a walk down memory lane. I obviously don't ever watch trailers or commercials, etc.

Kudrow looks great and has had minimal work, if any. Same for Schwimmer and LeBlanc. Cox and Anniston have both had work done. Jennifer Anniston seems a little stiff and guarded to me, although she's gorgeous. She's had the most post show popularity and it probably shows.

If I were going to hang out with any of them, it would be Kudrow and LeBlanc. Matt LeBlanc seems fun and Lisa Kudrow seems very grounded.

I enjoyed it, but was disappointed. I wanted a where are the characters now show, with Ross and Rachel divorced and hilarious comedy with the twins. I wanted Phoebe living on a commune and Joey a crazy reality TV star.

Did you even read what I wrote?

He sounded fine on The Odd Couple remake though that last aired in 2017.


Also that was one slip up. He wasn't slurring words the entire time.

With the exception of Ross and Phoebe the actors would need some work or damage control to be camera ready.


Add Jen Anniston to this bunch. Her Apple TV Morning Show is very good. It's so weird to see she and Steve Carell doing serious drama.

It was very forgettable IMO.

Why did James Corden have to host this?

He also apparently had dental surgery right before the reunion so it's possible his teeth were bothering him. If he's hyper sensitive about maintaining his sobriety he may be the type to refuse all painkillers even if they are prescribed for legitimate reasons.

I heard that at as well. Seems everyone was trying to make it out to be a medical issue or drug issue, when it was actually significant/emergency dental work that caused his speaking issues.

Why in the world would you have expected that from a reunion show though? The reason I ask is because my wife and stepdaughter said the same thing. But in no way does “reunion show” mean actual new Friends episodes to me.

I actually enjoyed it more than I thought I would. IMO Friends doesn’t hold up terribly well, but I really enjoyed the trip down memory lane.

I think it’s held up well for what it is and was. I’ll still put it on at night as something mindless on when trying to sleep.

Looking back crazy how big a sitcom could get back then pop culture wise and now they barely exist
