So sad too lose such a star so early..only reason I’m watching this and binge watching it because of his loss! I thought I would reply just to show some love at this sad time..I’m in recovery too and could almost feel his pain in some interviews..anyway his book I’m certainly going’s out to buy in next few days 🙏
I had to get up 4am (SA show)to get to studio before 7am to write camera cues from scripts that was only fine tuned a few hrs earlier also Continuity and shot caller also cue on cutter. I loved it but totally totally true on how much work goes in. Home time- only 8pm resulting- A takeaway burger and i just plonk on bed (sometimes with that days clothes on)when i got home. I slept so hard I sometimes woke up with drool marks on pillow. I didn't even notice one night when I plonked on my bed that I was robbed earlier that day while at work.😂 I don't know how the writers do it, they never sleep especially on live shows with a studio audience. Crew is totally under celebrated in the 'real' world.
@angelthman if it wasn't for the people behind the scenes the show wouldn't have been as successful as it was. They come up with the characters storyline props and etc.
It’s still hard for me to believe that matthew was going through so much in his personal life while still delivering such great work and professionalism. The dude was a comedic genius when it came to writing, timing and delivery of lines!! I remember clearly when he started talking openly about his struggles during Friends and I was just in shock! I would never have guessed how someone who was apparently in the top of his game was dealing with addiction and sometimes recording while still hangover. When I have a hangover I can barely function… Matthew Perry really was one of a kind. Not just a genius comedic actor but also a brave human being who helped more people than he will ever know just by being vulnerable and honest about his disease. RIP Matthew❤
The efforts they put for a single episode or for a single dialogue is amazing . No wonder this show ruling the world for decades . I'll be there for you🥰🥰🥰😍
Yes, and to think also that shows like Seinfeld and Frasier had the same kind of behind the scenes machine! Wow, it's a very impressive operation and production.
It's interesting to see how different the process is to UK comedy show writing. Most of our most successful comedic series are written by a single writer or maybe a duo. I loved Friends and it was such a big part of my 20's ❤
26:23 Matthew saying he "still gets nervous before each show" hits really hard now. We had no idea that that "nervousness" was pure hell, fear and anxiety to make sure he delivered perfect jokes for us every week. RIP Matty. You were a genius and were much too hard on yourself. You were more than enough all along. Millions of people around the world are mourning your loss. You'll never be forgotten. 😭
Yes, and the part of this where they showed the making of Sound effects, intro/outro scene music playing, or even the many different Laugh tracks that they used. It really is amazing, and maybe the next time i hear FOOT STEPS in a scene i'll remember how they made it.
The level of details in the making of an episode; from things that we likely didn't notice (e.g. coffee display window) to how faint the marking is on Ross's forehead, is spectacular! I tell you thing I've watched Friends over and over again, over the years. It plays in the background, I turned it on when I want something fun to watch, and I've never noticed the coffee display but now, I will go and pay attentions. The stars are wonderful but this crew of people behind the camera deserve all the applause. The long hours, the back & forth of questions/thoughts & creative genius was well well worth. Hope they got paid the pretty pennies.- they deserved it
This shows how much that every single person on this show mattered. Right down to the studio audience who influenced line changes! This whole production was an art. Nicely done FRIENDS!
I love how simple friendship bonding they have back then, reading books, solving crossword puzzle, playing cards, catchball, having gossip about ugly naked guy hahaha.. i miss the times like this.. not worrying how many likes or views in social media 😢
The hardwork behind the scene is soooo amazing! No wonder Friends is the greatest show ever! This is my comfort show up to this year 2023.. they have to grow old together yet.. we miss you chandler!
I'm so heartbroken. I've been crying for days. I can't even imagine the pain Courtney and the rest of the cast are feeling. My heart goes out to all of them.
wow no wonder the actors mess so many lines in the bloopers, they change and make up jokes on the fly, really interesting to see how my favorite show was made.
Always incredible to see the show this way! Kudos to everyone behind the scenes too! 👍. After 20+ years, it continues to entertain me! That's the hallmark of genius.
man this give a whole new perspective to one of the greatest sitcoms. Kudos to all the people who worked behind the scene. There is so much hard work that goes that the audience is not even aware about.
The great thing about friends is that it feels like meeting up with friends, you have seen them loads of times ,we know what they are like ,yet we still enjoy their company, we laugh we cry, we have fun with them. I dont feel like im watching people sitting in a coffee house ,I feel like I'm in a coffee house hanging out with my friends.
A little eerie how Perry is the only one not in the thumbnail. RIP Matthew, you were always my favorite Friend. Thanks for more childhood memories than I can count. You will forever be missed
Wow. This was amazing. Who knew all that went into making a show. They did a great job. On a sad note, we will miss you Matthew. You were a comedy genius.
Oh Matthew Perry! I got to know him through watching FRIENDS. What a great person and taken too soon. He’s truly a masterpiece. “Two bottles of vodkas walking in human forms…” what a genius to be able to come up with it on the spot and still funny. 🕊 🙏
I’m blown away to learn that the writers turned to him when they were in a rut of needing a joke. “Let’s ask Matt” was so casual you know they leaned on that often. RIP
The beauty of a finished product after ALL that hard work...is that it appears to be so easy and effortless. The art of mastery on so many levels all coming together.
Thank you for this insider look. A lot of time, work and dedication goes in to a single episode. I never knew. Bless Mathew Perry, you were this fans favorite since day one. I hope people carry your message of humor from now on, it is a gift to make people smile. You will be missed by the whole world.
Much appreciation to the crew for putting it all together so the cast can bring the characters to life, we often only see the 6 friends but there are hundreds of people behind the scenes creating the funny moments we cherish today
Yes Matthew Perry will always be remembered ..All the others he worked with deserve to be remembered also im sure they are taking this awful hard loosing him ..Thank you to you all for coming in our homes and being our friends ..RIP Matthew Perry !
NOT to be contrarian , BUT they had I Love Lucy, Beverly Hill Billies, MASH, Cheers, Kramer. I am sure others have their own list. I was just going by witty wholesomeness and humor. I love Outer limits , Night Stalker and Twilight Zone but not same genre. But still good. and lets not forget odd couple. Let us hope there is and will always be more to come.
I'm 50, my nieces are in their 20's and their early teens and we all still watch and rewatch Friends. It's positively timeless. They were funny without cell phones and computers incorporated into the show...imagine that?
@@trevormiles5852 I agree, there will always be New talent and New shows to come. Just like there are New incredible athletes that come along in every Era.
It really is amazing how much goes into a show that needs to be cut down to 22 minutes. So happy Matthew Perry was part of this amazing team of people. He was everyone’s favorite. We are all blessed to have known him thru friends.
These specials along with the blooper reels will always have a new and special meaning to most of us now. Thank you for all the best laughs Matthew. You will be very missed. May you rest in peace Mr. Perry. God speed
Never had I been able to watch a show millions of times, knew what was coming, still laugh at every scene, and want to see more of it because it brings back wholesome heart warming memories of my childhood. He will be so missed :/ I’m actually sad, I’ve never been so attached to any characters on tv or movies but friends was different
Makes you look at the show so differently when you watch this. So much behind scenes. When watching show it just seems real and you forget sometimes it’s a show and all acting. Etc. They couldn’t have casted better.
Thank you Mathew perry, my childhood is not what it was without catching you and the others on channel 4 in the UK at 9pm on a Friday to see what you guys were up to next, turns out I ended up being more like you than i could of imagined, thank you for the book, the laughs and for being a friend Amen 🙏🏻
There is so much joy and fun and professionalism captured in this documentary. I even wonder where those people in the audience are now. This is a perfect little thing frozen in time.
Can we just take a moment that the people who got to watch the show live were the luckiest cause you see its one in the life time opportunity ..... And now I'm soo jealous 😅😅
Watching this during lock-down 2020 was the initial thing that got me interested in screenwriting. Three years later, I have written at least 6 scripts, and just finalized my first one. Re-watching this was definitely worth my time, and a bit like a full-circle moment. Thank you for uploading.
@@butchieblock9118 it was what happened during the initial very virulent phase of Covid , to try to stop it spreading too much/ quickly. Most of us were all locked in, working from home, etc. (In England ).
This show helped me get through 2020. I grew up loving these people and watching them. When I was 39-40 it was so different but just as enlightening and entertaining❤
A lot of shows in this genre, even when great, show their age over time. Friends, however, seemed to really capture a timeless feeling. It doesn't seem dated. I think that has everything to do with the fact that we see ourselves, or people we may know, in those characters that were brought to life in this great show.
I don't think I'll be able to watch this show again... It's not even my favorite show but Chandler was my favorite character. Good bye Mathew Perry, and thank you very much. I don't believe in such things but, wherever you are, I truly hope you are at peace.
It's a show you can watch every episode again and again and still laugh your butt off even though you know what's coming ! I'm still watching it at 67 !
I’ve never seen anything like this. Thank you so much for showing me all the behind-the-scenes work that’s so many people put into my favorite show of all time. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
it’s truly such an intricate process that i’ve never realized before and i genuinely think that’s the beauty of the show. we can always watch it over and over again and not get bored because it’s perfected to the tiniest detail. best. show. ever.
I'm so devastated. It's difficult to watch anything with Matty in it. He did so many great things in his life. Friends was just a small part of his ENORMOUS personality. And, even though it was small, it had such a huge impact on all of us. RIP Matthew Perry. We'll always be here for you.
I didn't really discover Friends until Thanksgiving of 2020 when my husband and I split, and I moved out. He used to watch Disney every night. But wow. I was hooked immediately and watch reruns and fall asleep to Friends every night. This show wouldn't have been such a success without all six of them. I can't even pick a favorite. They all were perfect. Would've loved to have been in the audience. Would love to have the entire series on DVD. My only complaint is that I feel the final season was too rushed with everybody settling down with their soul mate, with the exception of Joey, of course. I know their contract was about to run out, but I would've loved to have seen that build up a bit longer. I sooo miss Matthew Perry though. So sad what happened there. He's sooo loved and always will be. RIP Chandler Bing.
It’s crazy to get this insight into the production of the series. I wonder how many different ways the show could have gone with different jokes and different storylines that were changed during production. I truly love the show - I have probably seen it over 10 times and would not even hesitate to start over again. It gives you joy, laughter and nostalgia and is so heartwarming. For that I am forever thankful of all the people involved - especially Matthew, who made the Character of Chandler so funny, relatable and lovable. May he rest in peace.
I was lucky enough to attend eight tapings over the years, talked with Matthew three times (hugged by him once) and had David Schwimmer dance for me with his leather pants around his ankles (TOW All the Resolutions). I was sitting 10 feet away in a wheelchair (I had sprained my ankle the day before). During the taping, the script supervisor hit my ankle with her podium on wheels (I yelped). A week later, I received a box of FRIENDS goodies (FRIENDS t-shirts, a watch, a lunch box, pens, frisbees, pins, a book, and a pair of sunglasses).
Thank you to everyone who was involved in creating this show and making it work so well. And as for casting, you couldn't possibly have chosen better actors! There were no weak links, and the script had the most well known lines. You can say "Aaaah, unagi" and most people know exactly what you're talking about. Blessings to all of you and thanks again for 10 unforgettable seasons! Friends will always be my all time favourite tv show
I'm really Thankful too! I put Friends ahead of......... Seinfeld, Frasier, Two and a Half men, King of Queens, Everybody Loves Raymond, Golden Girls, Reba, Mike and Molly.
It is so amazing how much work they put into the project. One seldom thinks about the people behind cameras. Absolutely marvelous the work they did. Friends is so epic. ❤
Matthew you will be terribly missed. Thank you Marta Kauffman, David Crane and Kevin Bright for putting together such a great tv show as Friends. It’s my favorite show of all time. You put a great cast of actors and actresses together. The whole crew the writers the directors and behind the scenes you all did a great job of putting on a great tv show. There is no finer people than you all. I will always love Friends. Love how you all have treated each other like family. That’s what I love. Love everybody from Friends on screen and off. You all will remain in my heart forever. Matthew is gone but his legacy of his accomplishments will live in our hearts forever. Thank you for making us laugh. Matthew Perry will live forever in my heart. Sleep with angels. 🙏😇
The show was genius with Thanks to the script writers & chemistry between the cast. I have been watching Friends since I was 25 & turned to it for comfort ,laughter viewing. Got me through darker times. So sad to realise that Matthew Perry was struggling & suffering behind the scenes. I loved Chandler's sarcasm & related it to our Bristish humour. He was relateable & im glad he was chosen for that part. RIP Matthew Perry 💔😢
A very unique and successful show with wonderful actors.. I love seeing behind the scenes and I am so impressed with the acting they did, with all those lines and actions, the right tones and movements and facual expressions ❤
I've always loved the props in the show. It was so interesting to me to pay attention to every detail in their apartments. This prop stylist was fantastic!! 💗
I find it much easier to go Back and watch reruns of Friends, than say Two and a Half men. To me it's about the comaroderie and positivity that makes it all So great!
Best show ever. I have seen every episode a million times, except the last one. I watched an episode yesterday but I had to turn it off, it hurts too much knowing he is gone💔
The great thing about friends is that you can watch it multiple times and know what's coming next but it still makes you laugh.
Unagi
@@disrupt-net aah salmon skin roll
True😂 i keep watching
@@edcampion3998 Oh Man!! what memories did we have and now they are all part of history
knowing what's coming and saying dialogues with them 'IS THE BEST THING'
You will be so very missed, Matthew. You were one of a kind. Thank you for the many years of laughter.
So sad too lose such a star so early..only reason I’m watching this and binge watching it because of his loss! I thought I would reply just to show some love at this sad time..I’m in recovery too and could almost feel his pain in some interviews..anyway his book I’m certainly going’s out to buy in next few days 🙏
I fell so bad, cause I was shocked by Mattthew's death.Fells like I have lost one of my best friends forever.
This laugh will be continued every time we will watch Friends agan and again, this way Matthew will be still with us giving joy and happiness.
😢
He sure was, he was a natural in the role.
I never realized how much work goes behind the scenes till this video. Much thanks to the people behind the scenes. The real MVPs

@Justine Underhay my goodness!! What is SA show
I remember watching a blooper on Three’s company when the camera bumped each other.😁
Why would you thank them? They got paid very handsomely and everyone is super rich from the show. They weren't volunteering in a charity.
@angelthman if it wasn't for the people behind the scenes the show wouldn't have been as successful as it was. They come up with the characters storyline props and etc.
the actors were insanely great , but these guys , behind the scenes were absolutely genius
C'est eux les vrais cerveaux
its amazing how Matthew came up with some amazing lines right on the spot...
could he BE any more Chandler?
It's like that episode where Joey is doing the same thing and really annoying the writers
A now he’s dead. Rip
🇨🇦 great comment 🇨🇦💔
You mean “ Sarcasm “? Rip.

I agree, I don't know how he did it all without us knowing what was going on in his life...amazing human being.
I echo your sentiments ❤
Comedic genius????? Not even at the ankles of every member of Curb & Seinfeld. He was low-brow comedy
You can in series 7 especially when watching it back now his speech was very slurred

22:10 matthew perry writing lines for the show. A real talent. RIP good sir
Rip
I love how they were stuck for a good line and they said, "Let's just ask Matthew". He was Chandler. He didn't need to be written for.
26:23 Matthew saying he "still gets nervous before each show" hits really hard now. We had no idea that that "nervousness" was pure hell, fear and anxiety to make sure he delivered perfect jokes for us every week. RIP Matty. You were a genius and were much too hard on yourself. You were more than enough all along. Millions of people around the world are mourning your loss. You'll never be forgotten. 😭
I never realized there're hundreds of people behind the 6 great figures who gave their heart and soul for this epic show...Thankyou for this show ❤
Yes, and the part of this where they showed the making of Sound effects, intro/outro scene music playing, or even the many different Laugh tracks that they used. It really is amazing, and maybe the next time i hear FOOT STEPS in a scene i'll remember how they made it.
The level of details in the making of an episode; from things that we likely didn't notice (e.g. coffee display window) to how faint the marking is on Ross's forehead, is spectacular! I tell you thing I've watched Friends over and over again, over the years. It plays in the background, I turned it on when I want something fun to watch, and I've never noticed the coffee display but now, I will go and pay attentions.
The stars are wonderful but this crew of people behind the camera deserve all the applause. The long hours, the back & forth of questions/thoughts & creative genius was well well worth. Hope they got paid the pretty pennies.- they deserved it
They said that the writers ARE very well paid because of all the hours the put in, so that was good to know! 👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻👌🏻
La série rapporte à la production 1milliard chaque année donc ils sont très bien payé
It feels like a loss of a dear friend. RIP Chandler. you'll be missed
This shows how much that every single person on this show mattered. Right down to the studio audience who influenced line changes! This whole production was an art. Nicely done FRIENDS!
They should really release a super fan edition - with all the takes and retakes and bloopers. Fans would pay good money for that.
I’d pay good money for an entire HD box set of that😄
I love how simple friendship bonding they have back then, reading books, solving crossword puzzle, playing cards, catchball, having gossip about ugly naked guy hahaha.. i miss the times like this.. not worrying how many likes or views in social media 😢
Exactly, they were better adjusted people i think, to a degree.
Simply THANK YOU to all the cast and crew for this masterpiece 🫶 and thank you, Matthew Perry 💔 you live on in our hearts 💔
It's amazing.. now the technology is very updated and modern and yet none can beat the talent that these crews have .
If you have a good idea and talented people working on it you don't need updated and modern technology.
The more technology progresses the less ppl need to use their brains
I loved the husband/wife team doing the sound effects with old shoes and other objects.
The writing of this show was impeccable. Just top notch.. Matt Le Blanc saying fancy stuff is like an illusion.
The hardwork behind the scene is soooo amazing! No wonder Friends is the greatest show ever! This is my comfort show up to this year 2023.. they have to grow old together yet.. we miss you chandler!
I'm so heartbroken. I've been crying for days. I can't even imagine the pain Courtney and the rest of the cast are feeling. My heart goes out to all of them.
We always focus on the actors, but every Person involved is Amazing. And just as important. I will always LOVE Friends.
Fly high Matthew. You'll always be a cherished man and a household name world wide.
Absolutely Amazing Amen 👣🙏❤️💔
Rest Easily Matthew Perry. You will never be forgotten.
wow no wonder the actors mess so many lines in the bloopers, they change and make up jokes on the fly, really interesting to see how my favorite show was made.

Each episode becomes a work of art. If only they did not have to be edited to a time slot. Behind the scenes is always fascinating to watch.
That's what i was thinking. They probably have to cut out some really Funny stuff every episode, to make the 22 minute time slot.

I’ve never seen anything like this. Thank you so much for showing me all the behind-the-scenes work that’s so many people put into my favorite show of all time. ❤❤❤❤❤❤
it’s truly such an intricate process that i’ve never realized before and i genuinely think that’s the beauty of the show. we can always watch it over and over again and not get bored because it’s perfected to the tiniest detail. best. show. ever.
I'm so devastated. It's difficult to watch anything with Matty in it. He did so many great things in his life. Friends was just a small part of his ENORMOUS personality. And, even though it was small, it had such a huge impact on all of us. RIP Matthew Perry. We'll always be here for you.
Friends was one of the best shows ever. I still watch the reruns.
I didn't really discover Friends until Thanksgiving of 2020 when my husband and I split, and I moved out. He used to watch Disney every night. But wow. I was hooked immediately and watch reruns and fall asleep to Friends every night.
This show wouldn't have been such a success without all six of them. I can't even pick a favorite. They all were perfect. Would've loved to have been in the audience. Would love to have the entire series on DVD.
My only complaint is that I feel the final season was too rushed with everybody settling down with their soul mate, with the exception of Joey, of course. I know their contract was about to run out, but I would've loved to have seen that build up a bit longer.
I sooo miss Matthew Perry though. So sad what happened there. He's sooo loved and always will be. RIP Chandler Bing.
It’s crazy to get this insight into the production of the series. I wonder how many different ways the show could have gone with different jokes and different storylines that were changed during production.
I truly love the show - I have probably seen it over 10 times and would not even hesitate to start over again. It gives you joy, laughter and nostalgia and is so heartwarming. For that I am forever thankful of all the people involved - especially Matthew, who made the Character of Chandler so funny, relatable and lovable. May he rest in peace.
I could watch friends all day everyday. That's since about 96 I started watching and I still find it funny
I was lucky enough to attend eight tapings over the years, talked with Matthew three times (hugged by him once) and had David Schwimmer dance for me with his leather pants around his ankles (TOW All the Resolutions). I was sitting 10 feet away in a wheelchair (I had sprained my ankle the day before). During the taping, the script supervisor hit my ankle with her podium on wheels (I yelped). A week later, I received a box of FRIENDS goodies (FRIENDS t-shirts, a watch, a lunch box, pens, frisbees, pins, a book, and a pair of sunglasses).
Wow U r so lucky,.I don't envy but ofc I wish to have had this experience...
So cool to get to experience this
this show still makes me laugh after all these years. rip matty.
Thank you to everyone who was involved in creating this show and making it work so well. And as for casting, you couldn't possibly have chosen better actors! There were no weak links, and the script had the most well known lines. You can say "Aaaah, unagi" and most people know exactly what you're talking about. Blessings to all of you and thanks again for 10 unforgettable seasons! Friends will always be my all time favourite tv show
I'm really Thankful too! I put Friends ahead of......... Seinfeld, Frasier, Two and a Half men, King of Queens, Everybody Loves Raymond, Golden Girls, Reba, Mike and Molly.
It is so amazing how much work they put into the project. One seldom thinks about the people behind cameras. Absolutely marvelous the work they did. Friends is so epic. ❤
I love these kinds of behind the scenes so much. Thanks a lot for putting this up online.
it's the first time I see "behind the scenes", I never knew how much insane work is to only make a few scenes, not to mention a full episode 😮
...must be amazing for todays generation watching to see that people existed perfectly well without being on phones all the time
My life is going to be longer because of FRIENDS truly said.
OMG they are painting the freaking floors! That is insane! All those people who work in the shadows are both so lucky and so amazing!
Matthew you will be terribly missed. Thank you Marta Kauffman, David Crane and Kevin Bright for putting together such a great tv show as Friends. It’s my favorite show of all time. You put a great cast of actors and actresses together. The whole crew the writers the directors and behind the scenes you all did a great job of putting on a great tv show. There is no finer people than you all. I will always love Friends. Love how you all have treated each other like family. That’s what I love. Love everybody from Friends on screen and off. You all will remain in my heart forever. Matthew is gone but his legacy of his accomplishments will live in our hearts forever. Thank you for making us laugh. Matthew Perry will live forever in my heart. Sleep with angels. 🙏😇
I hope Mathew Perry got paid for writing jokes too
No
I mean he got a million per episode 😂
The show was genius with Thanks to the script writers & chemistry between the cast. I have been watching Friends since I was 25 & turned to it for comfort ,laughter viewing. Got me through darker times. So sad to realise that Matthew Perry was struggling & suffering behind the scenes. I loved Chandler's sarcasm & related it to our Bristish humour. He was relateable & im glad he was chosen for that part. RIP Matthew Perry 💔😢
This is an amazing video. There's no other like it showing everything that goes on behind the scenes of a sitcom. It's fascinating.
It's the best ever! I still watch friends again and again, and so do my children. He was so right! ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
A very unique and successful show with wonderful actors.. I love seeing behind the scenes and I am so impressed with the acting they did, with all those lines and actions, the right tones and movements and facual expressions ❤
مسلسل عظيم بكل ماتحمله كل حلقة انه الاجمل والاعظم على الاطلاق لا ولن تاتي مسلسل شبيه لفريندز ابدا
I've always loved the props in the show. It was so interesting to me to pay attention to every detail in their apartments. This prop stylist was fantastic!! 💗
Thank you Chandler, for you were there when time was hard for me. Rest in peace. :')
I was so happy to see this documentary about Friends. It's still my favorite show . I watch it on cable TV on Nick at Night .
I find it much easier to go Back and watch reruns of Friends, than say Two and a Half men. To me it's about the comaroderie and positivity that makes it all So great!
It'll be another generation before we see a show of this magnitude, if ever......Matthew Perry RIP 🙏..... an Irish Gen X'er
i love how they were strugling to find a joke so they went to mathew
Wow... it takes so much work to do one episode. I'm "speechless"
Damn each episode is hard work, I appreciate Friends even more now
Rip Mathew 🙏❤ thus is an amazing video, much appreciated ❤️❤️
Best show ever. I have seen every episode a million times, except the last one. I watched an episode yesterday but I had to turn it off, it hurts too much knowing he is gone💔
F.R.I.E.N.D.S! LOVING YOU GUYS ALWAYS AND FOREVER!!! GOD BLESS!
