Jennifer Aniston has such good memories of filming Friends, she has said she doubts she’ll ever make another sitcom.

Aniston was speaking on the SmartLess podcast when she was asked if she’d make another comedy show, and replied: “If I knew it would be the same experience as I had with those guys, yes, but I doubt that will ever happen.”
She added that making Friends been the favorite job of her long career and that every single day still, she misses the schedule of filming: “It’s the best schedule ever on the planet.”
Twenty years after it ended, Friends remains one of the world’s most popular sitcoms. In 2004, 52 million US viewers watched the series finale, called ‘The Last One’, which was the most watched television episode of the 2000s.
All six leads went on to individual success, with Aniston most recently starring in AppleTV+’s The Morning Show. Schwimmer, Cox, Kudrow and LeBlanc have all gone to appear in TV comedies on both sides of the Atlantic. Perry died in 2023 of a drug overdose.
