It's impossible to see Lisa Kudrow and Jennifer Aniston together without thinking about the TV show that made them household names: "Friends." In a recent video call for Variety's 'Actors on Actors' issue, the pair discussed the scenes that would have the entire cast in fits of laughter.
The pair revealed that they are both guilty of spending hours watching "Friends" bloopers online and laughing at what they find. Aniston admitted to Variety, "This one time I was with Courteney [Cox], and we were trying to find something to reference, an old "Friends" thing. And then we stumbled on—there’s bloopers online—and we sat there at the computer like two nerds watching these bloopers laughing at ourselves."

Aniston began by looking back on her partnership with Kudrow, “You and I would always get into these fits of laughter because you had this wonderful ability—you were about to hit your punchline, and you would do this adorable thing where you would break. You would say the punchline, and you would always turn to the audience and say, ‘I’m sorry, it’s really funny.’”
Aniston then went on to name some of the group's biggest goofs. The iconic scene from the season 7 episode entitled 'The One with Joey’s New Brain.' This is where Ross tries to persuade Chandler and Monica to allow him to play the bagpipes at their upcoming wedding.
"There was the scene when the bagpipes happened. Where you started to sing full 100%-committed, with the bagpipes, sounding like the bagpipe—I couldn’t hold it together. No one could hold it together," Aniston reminisced. It's quite clear that Aniston is holding back the laughter even in the final cut of the episode.
Unlike her "Friends" co-star, Kudrow stated that she doesn’t re-watch episodes of the show. She spoke optimistically saying, "I’m still not watching it in the hopes that one day we sit down and watch them together."
If you miss seeing the hilarious cast together, you may not have to keep watching re-runs, as it has been confirmed that there will be a "Friends" reunion special for HBO Max. We are sure there will be even more moments of laughter to come from the group!
