The 6 protagonists return with many supporting characters, looking back at the ten years from the beginning of filming to the end of the decade, and also revealing some little-known behind-the-scenes footage. In addition, Guests such as Justin Bieber, David Beckham, Bulletproof Juniors (BTS), Lady Gaga and other guests also appeared on camera. Most popularly, Cass revealed that during the filming of the first season, Rose's actor David Schwimmer really liked each other with Rachel's Jennifer Aniston.
The first season of "Friends" began airing in 1994 and quickly became popular, and its popularity continued until the tenth season in 2004. Even after the end, the popularity of "Friends" has not decreased, and it continues to be watched by audiences around the world, affecting the audiences of different eras after the 70s, 80s and 90s, and it is not too much to be regarded as the most well-known and influential American drama.

This time, in order to improve the users of HBO MAX, Warner reunited the 6 main actors and the main creator of the show to launch this "Friends Reunion Special", full of nostalgia. This film is actually a documentary, combining live interviews, past clips and other celebrity interviews to re-review this classic series for the audience, so that the audience can't help but shed tears of the times.
The most touching scene of this reunion is the beginning when each actor re-enters the restored studio. The decoration in the shed is exactly the same as when the shooting was taken 17 years ago, and the details are exciting to see. In fact, the show's producer, Marta Kauffman, revealed that at the end of the series 17 years ago, all the set in the studio was demolished the next day, because they had to shoot a new show, and they didn't have time to take pictures. However, Kass left blessings and inspiration on the wooden boards in the shed at the end, which are still preserved and reappear in this show.

Another touching scene is a look back at the last episode after filming, the castors used to cry in the narrow new York apartment corridors. In the 17 years since, 6 people have only been reunited once. Most of the time they are in contact with each other by text message. Three of the actresses often meet. Jennifer Aniston and Monica's courteney Cox remain best friends to this day.
The most surprising thing in the film is a fashion show, where singer Justin Bieber, models Cindy Crawford and Cara Delevingne appear on the catwalk in some of the show's classic costumes, while Joey's actor Matt LeBlanc re-dresses the layers of clothes that were in the show, restoring the impressive classic plot.
Tom Selleck, who played Monica's ex-boyfriend Richard, Maggie Wheeler, Chandler's ex-boyfriend, Elliott Gould and Christina Pickles, veteran actors who play Rose's parents, were also surprised to reunite with the 6 lead actors. Reese Witherspoon, a well-known actress who has guest starred in Rachel's sister, also sent her blessings.

This drama also has a lot of star fans. Although the well-known South Korean group Bulletproof Youth League (BTS) is after 90, the recorded video shows that "Friends" has a profound impact on them, and Captain RM is watching this drama to learn English, which is of great help to him to use English fluently overseas later. British star David Beckham also recorded a video about watching "Friends" to relieve his boredom when he traveled away from home to miss his relatives, and thought that he was most similar to Monica because he had cleanliness. Singer Lady Gaga brushed up Phoebe's hairstyle and sang the play's famous song "Smelly Cat" with Phoebe's lisa Kudrow.
Surprisingly, Rose's actor David Humer revealed that he had a crush on Rachel's character Jennifer Aniston during the filming of the first season, and the two also had a period of ambiguity, but neither told anyone. However, because they did not want to affect the shooting and each had a partner, they never let the relationship develop.
Cass and the choreographer also said that they did not plan to continue to shoot sequels or movies because the characters each had the best ending that year, and if they wanted to overturn or change this ending, there was no need. The casters thought that their marriage and children were the best ending, and That Joey, the only one who was still single at the end of the tenth season, might have opened a sandwich shop by the sea after moving to Los Angeles, which was also the perfect ending for him.
