After years of fans requesting them to come together on screen again for a reunion, the iconic six lead cast members of “FRIENDS” finally did. On Thursday millions of FRIENDS fans from around the world stopped everything else to watch their favorites – David Schwimmer, Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, Matthew Perry, Lisa Kudrow, and Matt Le Blanc finally come together for this much-awaited friends reunion. 

​The special episode was ninety minutes, and started with the cast members walking inside “Stage 24” of the Warner Brothers studio in Burbank, California, after 17 long years. Schwimmer, who played the nerdy paleontologist Ross Geller on the show was the first one to step foot on the legendary set of “FRIENDS”, followed by Lisa Kudrow who we know as the “flaky” Phoebe Buffay and then the others joined.
