Matthew Perry is an actor that many of us are acutely aware of for his portrayal of the awkward, joke-spinning Chandler from the sitcom Friends. What people may not be aware of is that he is currently starring as the lead in a play of his own creation in the West End, presently at the […]
This Thanksgiving, I decided to watch all 9 Thanksgiving episodes of Friends in order to finally determine: “Why does Ross, the largest of the Friends, not simply eat the others [for Thanksgiving]?”* Here are the lessons I learned: – The first instalment, The One Where Underdog Gets Away, features one of those “early sitcom family […]
*Sigh* I really did have my fingers crossed for Go On. I wouldn’t say my hopes were all the way up, since the premise – snarky sportscaster Matthew Perry is forced into group therapy after the death of his wife- sounded tired, but I really was hoping for the best, if only for Perry’s sake. […]
