‘He Was Just Beyond Us All’
During an exclusive interview with The Times, Lisa Kudrow, who played Phoebe Buffay, discussed the show’s continued popularity. She mentioned that after Matthew Perry’s tragic passing, she watched the show again. In a more serious tone, she said, “Before, I only saw what I did wrong or could have done better. But for the first time, I truly appreciated just how great it was.”
She claimed that she did an “OK” job in the show, praising Jennifer Lawrence and Courtney Coxe for being “Amazing” throughout the show. Meanwhile, Matt LeBlanc and David Schwimmer made her laugh throughout the 10 seasons of the sitcom. She added, “And then Matthew — he was just beyond us all.”
She added, “There was a genius at work. And whatever any of us do in the future, we will never experience something like that again.” The report also mentioned that despite ending in 2004, it is still one of the most-streamed series in the UK, and the remaining cast members still earn $20 million from repeat fees.
