The 58-year-old actor - who played Ross Geller in the iconic sitcom, which aired from 1994 to 2004 - has revealed how he and LeBlanc (Joey Tribbiani) marked the show’s 30th anniversary in September last year.
During an appearance on the Smallzy’s Surgery podcast, host Kent Small asked: “Do you reflect on when you hit a milestone like 30 years? Do you think: ‘how did that happen? Wow, what a great run. I don’t even know.’
“Or do you go: ‘God, I feel really old. Like, don’t say that?’”

The Goosebumps star added: “I happened to be back in Los Angeles around the day that marked the 30th year of when we aired, and I took [Matt] LeBlanc out to dinner, actually, and we reminisced and we toasted to the 30 years.
“I mean, it’s amazing. It’s amazing to me that people are still watching and find it funny and comforting, and I feel nothing but gratitude, really.”
During an appearance on Jesse Tyler Ferguson’s Dinner’s on Me podcast, she explained: “It [the reunion special] was so good.
“We’d only had dinner, the six of us, once before since the show ended.”

She revealed the dinner took place around “10 years” after the end of Friends and added: “It was like we didn’t miss a beat. Just us at someone’s house and had dinner and, like, didn’t miss a beat.”
Appearing on Dax Shepard’s Armchair Expert podcast, she confessed the “six-way relationship took some work”, and the group “worked hard at being friends”.
Over the 10 seasons, the castmates became genuine pals away from the camera, and so they would try to “really talk things through” if there were any disagreements.
She recalled: “If someone said something or did something, it didn’t get too big because it was, ‘Can I talk to you?’”
