As part of the ongoing celebrations for Friends' 25th anniversary, the former cast and crew have been sharing their memories of the show in TV specials, social media posts and memoirs.
Writer Saul Austerlitz has written about a number of scrapped plots in his book, Generation Friends: An Inside Look at the Show that Defined a Television Era, including one reportedly turned down by actor Matthew Perry, in which his character Chandler sneaks into a gay bar because he loves the tuna melts it serves.
