Lisa Kudrow Calls Ross 'A Bad Boyfriend' in New Friends Take on Tonight Show

Her blunt view marks a shift from reunion-era answers toward a fresh reassessment of the show’s most argued relationship.

Overview

  • Lisa Kudrow, appearing Monday on The Tonight Show, said Ross was a bad boyfriend and argued Rachel should not have reconciled with him.
  • The live crowd broke into cheers at her answer, and after she stayed quiet on whether David Schwimmer knew her view, Jimmy Fallon joked that he does now.
  • Kudrow said the issue goes beyond the old on‑a‑break question, pointing to Ross flipping out when Rachel focused on a work crisis.
  • Coverage recapped past cast views, noting Schwimmer said in 2020 that they were on a break while Jennifer Aniston said in 2021 they were not.
  • During the interview, she also reminisced about filming the show’s fountain credits and credited Matthew Perry for keeping the cast laughing, while promoting The Comeback.
