Lisa Kudrow: 'Friends' Reunion Isn't Likely

We have bad news to report: It doesn't look like there will ever be a Friends reunion. Lisa Kudrow said to Us magazine that the sitcom gang probably won't be heading back to sip coffee at the Central Perk, or to the famous apartment with the picture frame around the peephole. "Everyone's busy!" she said at an event in Santa Monica.

Even though the actors have all moved on from the show, it seems like the program's producers are the ones with the biggest objections to bringing everyone back together on the small screen. "I guess they don't think it's a good idea," Lisa said.

And even if the former cast was jumping up and down, demanding a reunion, Lisa sounds like she thinks it would be sort of pointless: "It would be fun, but I don't know. How? Why? Really?" she said.

It would be a nice payday for the stars, though. They were making up to $1 million an episode by the time the series stopped in 2004, after a decade run.

There's a mini Friends reunion on Courteney Cox's new show Cougar Town if you're really itching for some new Monica-Phoebe time. Lisa makes an upcoming guest appearance on the show, and it looks like that's as good as it's gonna get.
