5 biggest revelations from the Friends Reunion
Friends: The Reunion is streaming now on HBO Max, and fans of the dear sitcom are feeling all the emotions seeing the famous sixsome back together on that iconic orangish burrow.
The reunion special has plenty of bully segments. And then many in fact that we ranked our favorite moments (and a couple nosotros didn't like so much), but ane of the well-nigh surprising things virtually the feature-length bear witness was all the new information stuffed within its runtime.
Sure, we already knew that the initial pitch for the show was "a sitcom focused on the period of your life where your friends are your family." Likewise, the cast's musings on where each grapheme would exist now didn't exactly plow upwardly many surprises — though we did similar Matt LeBlanc claiming that Joey would own a sandwich shop by the beach (even he knew the whole beingness an actor in LA thing wouldn't pan out!).
However, in that location were besides several revelations that we didn't see coming and even a few tidbits that hardcore fans who can recite each episode front and back were shocked to learn. So, nosotros've rounded upwards the biggest talking points from Friends: The Reunion.
David Schwimmer really, really didn't like Marcel
"Information technology was time for Marcel to f**m off" was perhaps the quote of the unabridged bear witness, every bit David Schwimmer revealed that working with Marcel, the capuchin monkey, in the first series of Friends was not a fun experience for the actor.
Schwimmer had recently come from a stint in the theatre earlier Friends, so working alongside a Monkey was probably non what he envisaged for his outset major role on network television.
While Ross was devastated later on making the difficult decision to give his primate companion up for adoption to a zoo, Schwimmer was clearly very relieved. They exercise say never work with children or animals.
Monica's lines were on the tabular array
If you've ever wondered how actors memorize and so many lines, the reply is they don't. I of the first revelations of the Friends Reunion was that Courtney Cox used to hide her script pages around the apartment prepare in case she couldn't recall a gag.
Upon outset walking onto the rebuilt apartment Matt LeBlanc's start move was to quickly check under the fruit bowl to see if "Courtney yet has her lines written under the table". It was a hilarious moment, and just one of the many insights into the day-to-twenty-four hours routine of the cast while shooting the show.
At the time of being cast in Friends as runaway bride Rachel Greene, Jennifer Aniston was actually already booked to appear in another show CBS'southward Mudding Through. Due to contractual commitments if that show had taken off Aniston would have had to drop out of Friends.
NBC execs, not wanting anyone else for the part, planned a crafty motion to ensure that Aniston wouldn't accept to leave the Primal Perk six. During the summertime that Mudding Through premiered the network scheduled blockbuster movies at the aforementioned fourth dimension in order to tank the show's rating and ultimately lead to its counterfoil.
The plans worked, Mudding Through only lasted nine episodes and the producer of the ill-blighted sitcom told Aniston that Friends wouldn't ever brand her a star. Yikes!
Ross really crushed on Rachel in real life — and vice versa
This juicy revelation has caused something of an internet meltdown, as David Schwimmer revealed that during the filming of the prove he had genuine romantic feelings for Jennifer Aniston. And she had reciprocal feelings.
Ross and Rachel were (and arguably still are) the ultimate will they/won't they television couple, so finding out the actors behind the iconic pairing were actually crushing on each other the whole time has floored Friends fans.
Unfortunately, bad timing meant that Schwimmer and Aniston never got together in real life, though Matt LeBlanc jokingly hinted that they may have at least shared some class of a romantic encounter in the show'due south heyday.
Is it too late for us to re-build that send anyhow?
How Matt LeBlanc really broke his arm
Think the season three episode "The One With the Jam", where Joey gets his arm in a sling afterwards taking a tumble while bouncing on his bed?
If you lot've ever wondered why the author crafted that scenario so never did anything with it, it'southward because it was a comprehend for a existent injury that Matt LeBlanc sustained on the ready during the filming of the fan-favorite episode "The I Where No One'southward Ready".
LeBlanc had to dive into an armchair and during this stunt, he tripped and dislocated his shoulder in front of the studio audience. The squeam-inducing footage was shown during the Friends Reunion and all credit to LeBlanc for soldiering to pic the side by side episode while injured. We assume he requested a stuntman in afterward seasons.
