But do not preserve your breath for more episodes: Sitting down at Tribeca TV Festival Friday night time, co-creators Marta Kauffman and David Crane squashed any hopes for a likely reboot or reunion show.
"The motive we won't do a reunion is this is a show about that time for your existence when your buddies are your circle of relatives and when you begin having a family, that adjustments. So it would not be what is at that the heart of the display anymore," Kauffman said. "The different motive is, it's now not going to overcome what we did."
"We actually experience like we did the display we desired to do and we were given it properly," Crane delivered. "If you visited those characters now, it'd simply have a one-of-a-kind DNA, and probabilities are, it wouldn't be as true a display. Why pass returned to them nicely?"
Kauffman and Crane screened two episodes on the competition, speakme approximately each in the course of a panel in a while. The first episode, Season 4's "The One with the Embryos," follows Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow) as she has the same opinion to become a surrogate mom for her brother, and changed into written as a manner to contain Kudrow's actual-lifestyles pregnancy into the display.
The other, "The One Where Everybody Finds Out" from Season 5, reveals Chandler (Matthew Perry) and Monica (Courteney Cox) attempting to hold their courting mystery from the rest of the institution. Kauffman explained how Monica and Chandler have been originally simply going to have a one-night time stand, however, the target audience response and actors' chemistry turned into "so strong that we concept, 'Oh, there may be an actual dating right here.' "
Kauffman went on to show storylines she has regrets about: Phoebe's stalker (played by David Arquette) in Season 3's "The One with the Jam," and Phoebe's hen pox in "The One with the Chicken Pox" from Season 2.
"We did a whole lot of rewriting on (the stalker episode) to make that work, and I'm now not sure the fowlpox worked either," Kauffman stated. "I watch the display occasionally, and it's much tougher for me to revel in the best moments when there are moments that I'm like, 'Oh, my god, we let that happen?' "
Kauffman also remembers an appalling observe from an NBC executive in 1994 whilst writing the pilot episode, insisting that viewers would not "like" Monica for having sex on the primary date with Paul the Wine Guy (John Allen Nelson), who tells her he hasn't had sex on account that his last breakup two years in advance. Monica later learns from a co-employee that he was lying, and it becomes merely a line Paul uses to get ladies to sleep with him.
"The character who becomes the pinnacle of NBC at the time felt that Monica got what she deserved for napping with a guy on the primary date," Kauffman said, earning gasps from the competition crowd. NBC even "did a survey to discover how people felt about that, like did they think she turned into A) a trollop, B) a slut, D) not one of the above. And no one cared!"
