Friends reunite for fan fiction sketch on Jimmy Kimmel Live

Video: You need to put aside 8 mins to watch this reunion with Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Lisa Kudrow and, umm, Jimmy Kimmel.

2014-08-29_0006Three of the stars on Friends have reunited on Jimmy Kimmel Live, in a ‘Fan Fiction’ sketch penned by Kimmel.

It doesn’t really matter if Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow were in on the act.

I’m just glad they turned up.

This is quite long but totes worth it for any nostalgic Friends fan.

Meanwhile a Central Perk replica pop-up cafe is setting up shop in New York with props from the show , the iconic orange couch, and Gunther (James Michael Tyle) is even set to make a few special appearances. It will appear from mid September to celebrate 20 years since Friends began.

  1. What a waste of an opportunity… if they had to do such a heavy satire of fanfic, they could have at least got the actresses to act in character. At least to begin with.

  2. Incidentally, back in the mid 90s, Channel 7 tried to play hardball with Channel 9 (who bought the rights to Season 2 and subsequent seasons before Season 1 had aired in Australia) by waiting almost two years to air Season 1. They then tried to prevent Channel 9 from airing Season 2 by deliberately not showing the second last episode of Season 1 (“The One With The Birth”), believing that it would prevent Channel 9 from showing Season 2 because they were legally obliged to wait until Channel 7 had aired the entire season before they began airing subsequent seasons. Channel 9 went ahead and started airing S2 the week after Channel 7 aired the S1 finale (during the non-ratings period), so we actually had three seasons of “Friends” back to back (from 1996 through to the end of 1997), which was brilliant.

  3. Still the best show of all time, in my opinion! Really pleased that Jimmy Kimmel managed to get the girls to agree to this. Jennifer was obviously asked to act as though she was a reluctant participant. Channel 7 news is taking Jimmy’s offhand comment that he spent “$80 000” to recreate the set as gospel and reporting it as fact!!

  4. Love how Courteney and Lisa pushed Jennifer on, yes it was a silly script but still fun.

    Can’t believe it’s been 20 years since the show started! Bet you ch7 is still kicking it’s sell they didn’t take up an option for the 2nd season, letting it slip to ch9.

  5. What great sports they are & what a shame the guys aren’t there also.
    There is a movie of the week waiting to highlight what Courtney has done to herself. Tragic.
    Lets hope there may be a real reunion soon.

  6. Jennifer and Lisa look like they could’ve walked off the set only a couple of years ago, not 10! Jennifer is especially blessed.
    But Courteney… omg… if ever there was a stern advertisement to not mess with your face, then she is it! She was such a naturally beautiful young woman, not a thing wrong with her, and yet she went and did this to herself.
