Friends actress Courteney Cox thinks modern sitcoms are "just not that funny".
The 57-year-old, who famously played Monica Geller in the hit US series, made the revelation during a podcast appearance in recent days.
Courteney told the Variety podcast how she is afraid to star in another as she came from such an iconic show.
She explained: "I find sitcoms just not that funny any more. I come from such an iconic sitcom where it still holds up and it's so funny and it was so relevant to everyone."
She added: "I'd be really afraid to do another sitcom because I wouldn't want to ever be compared to Friends."
Courteney is now gearing up for her latest TV role which sees her play the part of Pat Phelps in horror comedy series Shining Vale.
Pat is a former wild child who became famous through writing raunchy female empowerment novels, and is caught cheating on her husband.
The episodes will follow the dysfunctional family as they move from the city to a small town and into a house where in the past, terrible atrocities have taken place.
Recently, Courteney spoke about the pressures her co-star Matthew Perry struggled with while on Friends.
During an interview with The Sunday Times, she admitted he "struggled for a while".
She also opened up about the long-awaited 2021 reunion.
When tuning in, fans noticed that Matthew's speech was slurred and that he appeared forlorn during chats with host James Corden and the cast.
At one point, the actor admitted how he had desperately fed off the live audience's reaction during the filming of Friends, where he played Chandler Bing.
"For me, I felt like I was going to die if they didn't laugh," he said, describing how he'd "freak out" if a line fell flat.
Referring to his comments, Courteney told The Sunday Times : "That was a lot of pressure he put on himself. That's a lot to think how much he relied on that for his own self-worth."
The mother-of-one then added: "He's just struggled for a while. I think he's doing great now."
Asked if she ever gets fed up of talking about Friends, Courteney replied: "No, that was such a huge part of my life.
"It was such a lucky situation that I fell into the show, and I went through so many things in those 10 years."
Speaking about the close relationship she has with Jennifer and Lisa, Courteney said: "We're just really comfortable. We've shared so much history together and we laugh.
"Lisa's laugh alone is the most infectious laugh I've ever heard. It's adorable. We have deep conversations, we also have silly times," she added.
