Fast Friends will test participants with Friends-themed trivia, puzzles and games, with one team winning the title of Ultimate Friends Fan. It was filmed in October at New York City’s interactive Friends Experience location, allowing contestants to see the show’s iconic sets and re-live their favorite show moments while racing for the top prize. Comedian and actress Whitney Cummings (Whitney, Undateable) has been tapped to host.
“As a longtime fan of Friends, I am beyond thrilled to host the first-ever game show,” Cummings previously said in a statement. “After 30 years, the fandom surrounding this beloved series only continues to grow and now I have the great pleasure of awarding the ultimate fans with bragging rights for life.”
All 10 seasons of Friends are currently available to stream on Max. The sitcom’s very first episode aired on Sept. 22, 1994; get in on TVLine’s 30th anniversary-themed debate about which Friends character is actually the best friend. (Plus, why isn’t Friends spinoff Joey streaming anywhere?)
