Aug 22, 2019
This September will be the 25th anniversary of the first episode of the hit TV series, Friends, and it will be celebrated in true-to-the-show New York style.
Are you a Friends fan? Tell us your favorite characters or episodes below to win a 25th Anniversary coffee mug and Central Perk limited edition ground coffee!
The Big Screen
Friends is coming to a movie theater near you! Called "Friends 25th: The One with the Anniversary", you can check out twelve of the show's most memorable episodes over three nights, plus never-before-seen extras. Airing on 1,000 screens, tickets are on sale now through Fathom Events. Though most of these shows are sold-out, it's worth checking to see if any tickets are left in a theater near you.
Visit Central Perk
In New York this September, there will be an immersive pop-up show, recreated to look like Central Perk and featuring all kinds of memorable items, according to the Hollywood Reporter. Chandler and Joey’s recliners and foosball table are sure to bring laughs and memories as well as Monica and Rachel’s purple door. The Central Perk will be recreated with a look-alike orange sofa and real props and costumes from the show will be on view. There will even be a fountain area from the show’s iconic opening theme recreated inside the shop. Though the tickets disappeared quickly, you can join their mailing list here - if enough people show interest, maybe they'll extend the time.
If you're on the West Coast, you can visit The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf in Santa Monica or The Coffee Bean in West Hollywood, where you can check out Central Perk, orange couch included. There’s memorabilia from the sitcom and specialty drinks named for its cast, including The Rachel Matcha Latte, The Joey Mango Cold Brew Tea and The Phoebe Cookies & Cream Ice Blend. But be quick, both end on Aug. 23.
Bring it Home
Do you want to have a little Friends in your home forever? Visit Pottery Barn, where you can buy several Friends items, including a replica of the legendary apothocary table (from the days of yore), recreated down to the last detail. It now costs $1,099, a lot more than the "one and 50 dollars" that Rachel told Phoebe she paid in that episode.
For a more fun, make-it-your-own memory, check out the Central Perk replica that you can build out of Legos. Of course it includes the couch and chairs, but it also has the stage where Phoebe performed on her guitar and Ross played his keyboard. Bonus: the set comes with 7 minifigures, including the 6 main characters plus Gunther. Order here starting September 1.

I always loved Chandler and Monica's relationship and how it evolved
by heatherfarr | CREEDMOOR, NC
I love Friends!!! All of the episodes are hilarious. My favorite character is Monica because I can relate to her need for organization. One of my favorite episodes was when Ross got his teeth whitened.

I never really watched friends, but my daughter in law is a huge fan. She loves Phoebe and her craziness!

I not only watched Friends when it aired 25 years ago, but I then binge watched it with my teenage daughter a few years back. Awesome family show! Rachel is my fav, and I still love the haircut!

Phoebe
by Bjakosh16 | LEECHBURG, PA
Joey is by far my favorite character! He is hilarious and great with the ladies. Even if he's not the sharpest crayon in the box.

Phoebe for making me feel like a genius.

Joey is my favorite!

Love win these mugs be great

I think that all of the characters were fabulous and worked extremely well together. My favorite episode is a really hard choice. There are many!! Ill go with the episode where Ross and Rachel go to Las Vegas and get completely plastered on the flight. Ross writes on Rachel's face with permanent marker and they end up getting married.

I love friends and am looking forward to the lego set coming out. My favorite characters are Ross and Rachel of course, 'We were on a break.' But I will say the Thanksgiving episodes are the best and funniest and every Thanksgiving I watch all ten Thanksgiving episodes. Its become a tradition for me and I love it.
