During its heyday, no show on television made audiences laugh like Friends. This pinnacle series helped to define '90s pop culture and is still hailed to this day as one of the greatest sitcoms of all time.
Recently, it was announced that Friends star, Matthew Perry, will be penning his own memoir detailing the highs and lows on the set of Friends. The book is packed with laughs and introspection and promises to hold nothing back.
Friends told the story of The Central Perk Six: an eclectic group of best friends, all living in Manhattan, New York, looking for love, family, and financial success in the most hilarious ways imaginable.
Friends wasn't just your average sitcom, it was an American institution. When the series finale aired, 52.5 million viewers tuned in — thus making it the 4th most-watched episode in television history.
Each character was different and fans all had their individual favorites. But whether fans fancied themselves as more of a Monica or a Rachel — there's no denying that nobody made us laugh quite like Chandler Bing.
It was recently announced that Matthew, aka The Chan-Chan Man, is set to release a tell-all memoir detailing his struggles with addiction, as well as his true feelings toward his Friends co-stars.
Fans can expect to see the book hit shelves on November 1st, 2022. When Matthew was probed as to why he was releasing the book in the first place, he responded by saying that now was the time to set the record straight.
Before apologizing for the fact that the memoir wasn't going to be a pop-up book, Matthew said "The highs were high, the lows were low. But I have lived to tell the tale, even though at times it looked like I wouldn’t. And it’s all in here."
"It wasn’t always a bed of roses for Matthew on and off the Friends set," the source told Us Weekly, "and Matt isn’t going to sugarcoat the tougher times that he went through with the cast."
During the promo and in the wake of the reunion itself, fans began expressing their genuine concern for Matthew's well-being, after the star was shown slurring his words and staring blankly off into space.
“But given the nature of Matt’s life and his experiences, that guarantees this will be an incredibly juicy read!” Could I be any more excited? No, I could not.
