A wave of nostalgia has caught those who are stuck in lockdown during the quarantine. Reunions, like that of the “Friends” cast, has been popular. The cast recently revealed which episodes they truly liked, while Lisa Kudrow said that she would watch old episodes of the show if only the main cast members watched it with her.

According to US Magazine, Courtney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc and Matthew Perry revealed which moments on the hit TV show they liked the most. The show ran for 236 episodes over 10 seasons, but there were a few scenes which left its mark on each of the cast members.

Aniston said that she loved a season 2 episode, “the one with the prom video” where Monica was fat, Rachel had a pre-nose job appearance and Ross donned an Afro. For Cox, it was the scene with Ross in “The One With the Blackout,” while Kudrow said that her personal favorite was that scene that had Sean Penn in it.

The boys have their favorites too. Schwimmer’s was “The One With the Blackout,” but he also picked where he dressed up as an armadillo, “The One With the Holiday Armadillo.” Perry chose “The One with Ross’ New Girlfriend,” where Joey told Chandler to go to his tailor. As for LeBlanc, it was the two-part finale, “The Last One,” for obvious sentimental reasons.

Meanwhile, according to The Sun, while Kudrow had her favorite episode, she held off watching it – and others – for so long in the hopes that the cast would reunite to watch those together. She revealed this to “Friends” co-star Aniston during the “Actors on Actors” interview series with Variety.

Aniston, on the other hand, is no stranger to the scenes from the show. She revealed during the interview that she had been watching the series again, all 236 episodes of it. She fondly remembers which scenes Kudrow made her laugh, citing the actress’ knack for finding the right punchline, even during filming.

The series hit the headlines in November 2019 after the revelation that the gang would reunite for an HBO Max special. Lisa, Jennifer, Courtney, Perry, LeBlanc and David were all confirmed to be in it for one final run.
