As we mark nearly three decades since the show first aired, Aniston's revelations remind us why 'Friends' continues to hold a special place in our hearts.
Remember the camaraderie that made 'Friends' feel so real? Aniston recounts a hilarious episode involving a surprise hair-washing prank on Lisa Kudrow.
"Matthew Perry and I were having lunch somewhere, and we knew Lisa [Kudrow] was getting her hair colored," Aniston recalled. "So we ran into the hair salon, and I snuck up — she was in the sink — and I took the nozzle from the guy that was supposed to be doing it and just started washing her hair."
She continued: "It definitely flew out of control, and that was unfortunate. But the excitement we had, it feels like yesterday."

But it wasn't all pranks and laughter. Aniston shared a tender moment during the interview, revealing that revisiting 'Friends' episodes often brings her to tears. "It's happy tears," she assures, highlighting the deep emotional connection the cast shares with the show.
The journey of 'Friends' is not just a series of episodes; it's a treasure trove of cherished memories that continue to evoke strong emotions, even years later.
One of the most intriguing insights Aniston shared involves Lisa Kudrow's reaction to the live audience's laughter. Contrary to what one might expect, Kudrow wasn't always a fan of the audience's interruptions.
"She'd be like, 'I'm not done! It's not that funny!'" Aniston jokes. This peek behind the curtain reveals the unique dynamics and challenges of filming a sitcom in front of a live audience, adding another layer to our appreciation of the show's comedic timing.
Perhaps the most heartwarming takeaway from Aniston's interview is the enduring friendship among the 'Friends' cast. "It’s a family forever," Aniston states, reflecting on the unbreakable bond they share. From FaceTiming with Courteney Cox to catching up with the rest of the gang, it's clear that the connections formed during the show have withstood the test of time.
"To me, those are the best multi-cams — when you just feel like you’re watching a play, and your laughter isn’t interrupting the flow of the series," Brunson said. "But who knows? Maybe one day I’ll do a multi-cam."
"I think you and I could do one together — hello? — because it was a pretty nice experience, and we can bring it back to whatever maybe we want," Aniston proposed.
"The fact that it’s had this long, wonderful life and it still means a lot to people is one of the greatest gifts I think all five of us — all six of us — we never could imagine," Aniston said. "And we see each other. I talked on FaceTime with Court[eney Cox] last night for an hour, and Lisa and the boys, and we just have a really — it’s a family forever."
