  4. This is not a new, original episode of the series. The cast will be appearing as themselves, not as their beloved characters (4/10/2020).
  5. “The cast and producers are all very excited to go into production, as this will be the first time since the show ended that the whole cast will be together, and on the original sets to reminisce," the statement continued. "There are loads of great surprises in store and lots of rare behind-the-scenes footage they are eager to share. We will keep you informed as plans solidify and once we have a firm premiere date." (4/10/2020).
  6. “We want to share some background information about the production dates for the upcoming unscripted 'Friends' reunion special for HBO Max. As was previously reported, production was delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. This means that the special will not be available on the streamer on Day 1 of launch. But it is coming!” HBO Max said in a statement (4/10/2020).
  7. As Matt LeBlanc told USA Today (8/8/17), "I made a lot of money, a f---ing lot of money on Friends. How much? Over $100 million. We still make money on it. And my accountant would love a reunion. But that show was about a finite period of time, between finishing school and getting married, when your friends are your family. To go back and revisit that ... all those characters have moved on. In the finale, everybody went their separate ways: Phoebe got married, Monica and Chandler got married, Ross and Rachel got married. Joey’s in California. What’s the story?”
