Friends of course follows siblings Ross (David Schwimmer) and Monica Geller (Courteney Cox), along with their close-knit group of friends, Chandler Bing (Matthew Perry), Phoebe Buffay (Lisa Kudrow), Joey Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc) and Rachel Green (Jennifer Aniston). The series debuted in 1994 and proceeded to become one of the highest-rated shows on television, and it continues to be a smash hit worldwide.
