While the internet is busy debating whether Friends is actually a good show, the cast members are minding their own business and keeping fans fed with mini-reunions on social media.
Since a full-fledged revival of the long-running sitcom is probably never going to happen, Courteney Cox’s Instagram account is likely the closest any of us will get to seeing our Friends back together again.
The actor shared a rare snap of herself with co-stars Jennifer Aniston, wearing some glasses from the Tony Stark collection, and Matt LeBlanc on Saturday night.
“A rare night and I love it,” Courteney captioned the photo, likely referencing how infrequently the gang hangs out these days.
Back in June, Courteney shared a photo from a “girls night” featuring Jennifer and Lisa Kudrow, who joked that the group was “halfway there” to a full Friends reunion.
The three former co-stars squeezed in tight for the sweet snap, which drew much love from fans on Instagram, including one-time Friends guest star Reese Witherspoon.
Perhaps Courteney, Jennifer and Matt have been bitten by the nostalgia bug, as the series recently marked its 25th anniversary with a slew of events, pop-up shops and social media celebrations.
An anniversary screening of a handful of Friends episodes across three nights grossed $2.9 million at the box office, drawing more than 230,000 fans and becoming the second-highest-grossing 2019 US event cinema release.
Most of the cast shared synchronised Instagram posts to honour the milestone, sparking rumours that maybe an official reunion was in the works.
“Celebrating a Thursday night 25 years ago,” Courteney wrote. “Thank you to all of our loyal fans across the world. You’ve certainly been there for us! ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️I love these guys!”
“Seems like yesterday. Thanks to all the fans for watching,” Matt added in his own post.
