“Friends” fans who want more from Friends: The Reunion—we understand your pain! After the show finished out their seasons 17 years ago, we’ve been just waiting for more. And then the HBO Max TV special was announced.
The highly anticipated reunion special premiered on Thursday, May 27, marking nearly 27 years since the show first aired on NBC in September 1994.
But now that it’s over, well, we just need to see more, ya know?
Thanks to Jennifer Anniston, who played Rachel on the show, we’re getting a sneak peak into some of the exciting behind-the-scenes moments that occurred during the filming of the reunion episode. She recently shared some never-before-seen photos on her Instagram, and they’re all pretty amazing.
“Still basking in all the love from the #FriendsReunion,” Aniston captioned the photo album she posted. “Thank you each and every one of you ❤️”
The batch of photos included a picture of Anniston and her five of her former costars, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, Matthew Perry, Courteney Cox, and Lisa Kudrow, taking an epic selfie. There’s just something about seeing the old crew back together again that’s giving us all the feels!
“The bazillionth selfie taken with the five of us,” she captioned it.
Adorable, right?
In addition, she also posted a picture of herself posing with Friends director James Burrows, calling him “the legend himself” (ain’t it the truth), plus a photo of her and Schwimmer sitting on the iconic Central Perk orange couch next to Justin and Hailey Bieber, who mad guest appearnces on the special.
“When two TOTALLY different worlds collide,” Aniston wrote in the caption. “[David’s] face says it all ☺️.”
The last picture in the album: A cartoon rendition of the cast sitting on the couch n front of the fountain we see in the intro credits. “Could this be an more of a small outdoor gathering with vaccinated friends?” it stated under the photo.
Pretty solid choice of photos here! However, there’s nothing more than actually hearing from the cast themselves about their time on the show.
