Lisa Kudrow, famously known as Phoebe Buffay from Friends, recently opened up about her experience revisiting the iconic sitcom and an emotional scene that brought her to tears.

Speaking on the Dinner’s On Me podcast, Kudrow revealed she has only recently started watching episodes of the beloved NBC series, despite its ongoing popularity. “God forbid, if anyone walked into my house and saw me watching my show, I’d be mortified,” she admitted.

The Emmy-winning actress explained her hesitance, noting she hasn’t seen all the episodes. “There’s episodes I’ve never seen. I mean, I was at the table read. I don’t know what the rewrites were for the other stories, you know?” Kudrow confessed. She also shared that rewatching the series brings a mix of feelings: “It’s like there’s a certain amount of anxiety around watching it.”

However, one moment from the show stands out for Kudrow: Phoebe’s wedding to Mike Hannigan, played by Paul Rudd, in Season 10. “When Phoebe got married, and she’s walking down the aisle and has this huge smile on her face, I teared up because she was so happy,” Kudrow said. “She deserves to be this happy.”

Kudrow’s portrayal of Phoebe earned her an Emmy in 1998 and remains a fan favorite, showcasing her talent across all 10 seasons of Friends.
