Lisa Kudrow : I would like to do Friends reunion season
Quote:
Naturally—because, as we know, Friends cast members are legally required to be asked about Friends in every interview they give for the rest of their lives—there were a whole bunch of Friends questions, beginning with, of course, the one of whether Kudrow would be down for a reunion. Her answer, which promises to re-ignite yet another fervent cycle of anticipation? “I’ll go for it,” Kudrow replied. “A whole season, because to spend that much time with those people again would be heaven.”
This would probably work better than a movie.
I think all of the cast would commit but they'd probably want to see a script beforehand, no-one wants to ruin the shows legacy.
I don't think this will ever happen but if it does they should do it in 2019 for the 25-year anniversary of the premiere and the 15-year anniversary of the finale.
Wasn't she the first one to shoot it down initially?
No, what happened was that there was that fake promo going around about a friends reunion that thought believed was a real teaser. She was just the first Friend to say that it wasn't real and that it wasn't happening. People starting getting mad at her as if she's the one that was stopping it from happening.
Honestly I'd prefer a TV special. Kind of how UK shows do Christmas specials of shows that are long gone. Just an extra long episode would be cool, provided that it had all the original writers doing it as well (which is the only way). But I think the writers are firmly against doing it and are happy leaving it as it was. Part of me would love to see them one more time, but I don't really know if it's the best idea, it's been so long. They all look so different now. Plus we all saw what happened when they attempted to bring back Arrested Development which ended up being good only because of the nostaligia of it all. I'm not sure how well a reunion would work.. but I'm willing to find out..

I'd settle for a Phoebe spin off with her opening a massage parlor in Miami with Cloris Leachman.
