The show is often criticised for its lack of diversity. The first episode was aired on September 22, 1994. The show has made Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and Matthew Perry household names with fans still referring to them as their characters' names. It's been 25 years since Friends found its way onto the small screen, and started its journey to create history. Also, Maggie Wheeler (Janice), Tom Selleck (Richard), and James Michael Tyler (Gunther) were back on the sets, making the reunion complete.She continued, "I mean we've always encouraged people of diversity in our company, but I didn't do enough and now all I can think about is, what can I do? What can I do differently? How can I run my show in a new way? And that's something I not only wish I knew when I started showrunning, but I wish I knew all the way up through last year." Malala Yousafzai, David Beckham, and Kit Harrington talked about their favorite episodes. Cindy Crawford and Justin Beiber walked the ramp with iconic Friends Costumes. And guess what, Friends The Reunion did manage to have a similar kind of surprise element. Be it Danny DeVito, Sean Penn, Julia Roberts, Brad Pitt, or Ben Stiller. And one of the most enchanting love stories was penned down for the screen.įriends had the most memorable guest appearances of all time. And so the scripts and ideas were reevaluated and improvised.

But the response of the audience was so overwhelming that the writers were forced to think about it again. It was earlier planned that Chandler and Monica would just have a fling. The performances, the improvisations in acting and in writing too just took the show to a whole new level. Each actor fitted into their character as if it had been written keeping them only in mind. Innumerable actors were auditioned before the fabled six were finalized. They had such distinct outlines of every character that they just didn’t want to settle for something that didn’t fit. David Schwimmer was the first to get on the board. It was the aspiration of every young adult to be a part of the world that they had created.įinding the right cast took the creators a long time. Each character in itself was a protagonist. It was not about a single protagonist and his 5 friends. That was the strength of the distinct features they had in their mind for all 6 of them. What they did best was conceiving 6 different characters that had the depth to hold the whole show by themselves.
They decided to write about a phase of our life when friends are our family. They were all in New York, writing and making shows. These were the three people who were responsible for conceiving the premise of Friends. Let’s look at some of the most memorable moments of Friends The Reunion.ĭavid Crane, Marta Kauffman, and Kevin S. No other show I know has been blessed with such longevity and relativeness.

When David Crane and Marta Kauffman decided to write Friends, they themselves didn’t know that it would become such a phenomenon. It has crossed borders and touched the lives of billions of people all over the world.
