<p>Lisa Kudrow shared that she found comfort in rewatching<em> Friends</em> following the passing of her co-star Matthew Perry.</p><p>&quot;After Matthew passed away, there were marathons and that was really comforting watching the show, also because it&#x27;s just makes me laugh, and there he was and he was so funny, the funniest, sorry everybody else,&quot; she remarked in a recent interview with Capital FM. </p><p>The actress admitted that she had not seen every episode of the hit sitcom during its original run due to her busy schedule at the time.</p><p>&quot;So I thought, &#x27;Why don&#x27;t I just see what this show is about,&#x27; you know. &#x27;Cause I didn&#x27;t watch every episode when we were shooting. I had a kid, I don&#x27;t know, just none of us were,&quot; she said.</p><p>Lisa also revealed that she previously found it difficult to watch herself on screen.</p><p>&quot;When I would see parts of it or something and see myself I would be, depening on my mood, &#x27;Ah come on, just stop it. Why would you do that?&#x27; You know, that stuff. And now, I can just say, &#x27;Alright I can forgive you for that. And also, &#x27;Oh she&#x27;s funny, she&#x27;s a funny character,&quot; she said.</p><div><br/></div><iframe class="instagram-media instagram-media-rendered" id="instagram-embed-4" src="https://www.instagram.com/p/CzrZeG5P0n6/embed/captioned/?cr=1&amp;v=14&amp;wp=470&amp;rd=https%3A%2F%2Fod2-workbench-web.abs-cbn.com&amp;rp=%2F#%7B%22ci%22%3A4%2C%22os%22%3A475721.2000002861%2C%22ls%22%3A333348.09999990463%2C%22le%22%3A333620.5%7D" allowtransparency="true" allowfullscreen="" frameBorder="0" height="572" data-instgrm-payload-id="instagram-media-payload-4" scrolling="no" style="background:white;max-width:540px;width:calc(100% - 2px);border-radius:3px;border:1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219);box-shadow:none;display:block;margin:0px 0px 12px;min-width:326px;padding:0px"></iframe><script async="" src="//www.instagram.com/embed.js"></script><div><br/></div><p><em>Friends</em> aired from 1994 to 2004, with Lisa portraying Phoebe Buffay and Matthew playing Chandler Bing.</p><p>Matthew passed away at the age of 54 in October 2023.</p><p>Following his passing, Lisa and her <em>Friends</em> co-stars Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, David Schwimmer, and Matt LeBlanc, released a joint statement expressing their grief.</p><p>&quot;We are all so utterly devastated by the loss of Matthew.
