“Friends” will always be there for them.The beloved sitcom turns 30 this month, with its premiere episode airing Sept. 22, 1994.
In honor of the monumental moment, the ‘Friends’ co-creators, Kevin Bright, Martha Kauffman and executive producer David Crain, revealed the possibility of a reboot.“When you have pre-teens coming up to you, telling you how much they love your show and asking you, ‘Will there be more episodes?’” Bright told Today in an interview that aired Sept.
20.“We get that a lot. I get emails about it all the time. And everybody has a great idea. And the great idea is their kids grown up doing a ‘Friends’ show,” Kauffman chimed in.As Crain put it, “Oh, no, no, no, no.”As for how it feels to have the long-standing show, which also starred Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc, and David Schwimmer, turn 30 this year?“I would imagine it’s kind of what it must feel like when your kid turns 30 and you’re like, ‘How did that happen?’” Crain pondered.One thing is for sure: the cast had a connection right from the start.“When the six of them got onstage together, I literally got a chill up my spine and thought, ‘This is special,’” Kauffman admitted.Sharing some behind-the-scenes secrets, the creators told Today that “Friends,” flirted with being named a variety of other titles.“Insomnia Café,” “Six of One” and “Friends Like Us,” were some of the top options.
The trio also reflected on the loss of Matthew Perry, who died at age 54 in October from effects of ketamine.Bright noted, “He’d been fighting the good fight for so long, and it really did feel like, from the reunion, that he had finally found some peace.”“It’s a huge loss, and it does make the 30th a little fraught,” Kauffman shared.
