Jennifer Aniston Shares Tearjerker Texts With Matthew Perry

Aniston played Rachel Green, a fashionista who begins the show as a waitress at Central Perk before working in several careers whose on-and-off romantic relationship with Ross Geller is a key storyline throughout the series. Matthew Perry portrayed Chandler Bing, a statistical analyst and date reconfiguration expert (who loathes his job) known for his sarcastic sense of humor. His relationship with Monica Geller, Ross’s sister, is also a major plotline in later seasons. 

When it comes to Rachel and Chandler’s love interests, Ross is a paleontologist who harbored a lifelong crush on Rachel. He both marries and divorces three times in the course of the show and highs and lows of his love life are a recurring element. Monica, on the other hand, is a chef reputed for her extreme cleanliness and competativeness who later marries Chandler. 

The show was adored for its razor-sharp humor, constant stream of catchphrases, and unrivaled in-cast chemistry. The comedy series counterbalanced uproarious humor with emotional depth, earning it a gigantic audience which continues–even grows–to this day. Who can forget the classic theme song?
