Lisa Kudrow and the ‘Friends’ cast are still getting paid. After all, 22 years after the end of ‘Friends,’ the actress and her costars—including Jennifer Aniston, Courtney Cox, David Schwimmer and Matt LeBlanc—are still bringing in about $20 million a year in residuals when the show is re-aired, according to The Times. And Lisa has one theory as to why they’re getting so much in fees, quipping to the outlet in an interview published April 23, “Because Phoebe Buffay was so great?” In all seriousness, the 62-year-old has another idea as to why the show has stuck with fans all these years later, noting she rewatched Friends following Matthew Perry’s death from the acute effects of ketamine in 2023. “After Matthew died I watched the show again,” Lisa shared. “Before, I only saw what I did wrong or could have done better. But for the first time I truly appreciated just how great it was. I felt I did OK, but Jennifer and Courteney? Amazing. David and Matt? They had me laughing so hard. And then Matthew—he was just beyond us all.” Full Story: https://www.eonline.com/news/1431440/lisa-kudrow-friends-cast-money-salary-s20-million-residuals
