What you get is what you get. The cast of this hit sitcom Friends said that you will never see the six of them sitting together in the same room ever again – or at least not in front of the cameras.
The stars, which include Jennifer Aniston, Lisa Kudrow, Courtney Cox, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, an Matthew Perry, all agreed that the HBO Max Friends Reunion special is the last time that they will reunite publicly. Here’s what you need to know.
Courteney Cox made the announcement during the reunion special, with the rest of the cast looking on tearfully.
Friends Reunion: The Cast Of Friends Will Never Do Another Reunion Again
“Honestly, this will really make me cry, but this will be the last time that we’re ever asked about the show as a group that we will do this,” she said. “Like, we’re not going to do this [again] in 15 more years.”
But that doesn’t seem to really matter as the Friends Reunion special has gotten some pretty lukewarm reviews from critics. That’s because fans wanted to see their beloved characters come back to life and not just listen to the stars talk about how much they miss their paychecks.
Some critics said, “The special feels like a missed opportunity to see the characters we’ve grown to know so well over the past 25 years truly come back to life,” along with, “Every part of the show that’s not just the six of them talking struggles to justify its existence.”
Another critic put it this way, “Just seeing the core cast, 17 years older and inhabiting the sets out of character, is a little bizarre, but what makes the reunion so much weirder (to the point where I had to take a break 20 minutes in) is how desperate it feels.”
