However, he did admit that he was nervous about joining the cast of the hit series in 1996.

“I hadn’t done a three camera live show since ‘Taxi,'” he said.

“It scared me a little.

But that’s the price you pay for opportunity!”

Selleck went on to reveal that Richard was only supposed to appear in three episodes.

However, the story took on a life of its own and he kept returning for more.

“They said, ‘Hey can you do a few more?'”

“So then I did more.

And I quickly realized, ‘Wow, this is a big deal.'”

Will there ever be another Friends reunion or revival?

“Like, we’re not going to do this [again] in 15 more years.”

Thankfully, Tom Selleck got to be part of the reunion.

However, that doesn’t mean that the world will never see another version of “Friends” again.

“I don’t think there’s going to be a ‘Friends’ reboot.

I mean, not with any of us in it,” she toldWhere is the Buzzin 2022.

“I would love to see what the now-version of that would be,” Kudrow said.
