There is basically no sitcom as iconic as Friends. The NBC hit first premiered on Sept. 22, 1994, and ran for 10 seasons until the finale on May 6, 2004.
The beloved sitcom — starring Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, Lisa Kudrow, Matthew Perry, and Matt LeBlanc — kept audiences laughing for 236 episodes across 10 seasons. In the 2020s, Friends found a whole new generation of fans after becoming available on streaming, cementing its place as one of the most popular TV shows of all time.
Since the series wrapped in 2004, the cast has taken on a variety of projects. Some have remained TV fixtures, while others have branched out into film, Broadway, producing, and more. In 2021, the six stars reunited for an HBO Max special — a nostalgic celebration that would sadly mark the final time they were all together before Perry’s tragic death on October 28, 2023, at the age of 54.
