TV by Michele Manelis 26th May 2021 6:05 AM The feverishly anticipated Friends reunion, otherwise known as The One Where They Get Back Together, is finally almost upon us, and series star Lisa Kudrow sounds as if she still can t believe her luck - more than 17 years after the show ended its decade-long run. Friends was everything, says Kudrow, smiling and shaking her head as she reflects on her time as essentially a sixth of one of history s most beloved sitcoms, which taped its two-part finale in January, 2004. The six of us were so excited to come back, she continues. The first time we were on a call together, we could barely stay on topic because we kept making each other laugh.
