‘Friends’ Castmates Are Coming Up with a “Bittersweet” Plan to Mark 20-Year Anniversary Since the Show’s May 6, 2004 Finale While Also Honoring Late Co-Star Matthew Perry

Friends.

The beloved NBC sitcom Friends turns 30 years old this September; the next month will mark one year since the unexpected and tragic death of one of the show’s six main cast members, Matthew Perry. (After a long battle with addiction, Perry died at his Pacific Palisades home on October 28 at just 54 years old; his cause of death was determined to be due to the acute effects of ketamine, while drowning, coronary artery disease, and effects from buprenorphine—a medication used to treat opioid use disorder—were also listed as contributing factors.)
