“I make you laugh pretty hard. And you were like, ‘No, no, you don’t understand. This guy’s really [funny],’” O’Brien recalled of Kudrow’s initial reaction to her late costar.

The former romantic partners remained friends as they both moved on to other romantic partners: O’Brien attended Kudrow’s wedding to Michel Stern in 1995 and went on to marry Liza Powel O’Brien in 2002. Appearing with Kudrow on the podcast, O’Brien said that back when she was starting to work on the series, “you called me up, and you were raving about…” Then Kudrow interjected: “Matthew.” “And you were saying, ‘He’s so funny,’” O’Brien said. “And there was part of me that was jealous.

That I never even in a million years could have envisioned anyone playing the character like that and with his own rhythm and everything. It’s his own.” Since Perry’s sudden death at age 54, Kudrow said she has been able to experience Friends in a whole new light. “I used to not be able to watch it at all,” she explained. “I mean, I’d see it on and be, like, mildly interested, and then I’d see me and say, That’s enough of that. I can’t bear it.
