Later, in the same show, Jennifer Aniston talked about being on the FRIENDS reunion, which was overwhelming for her, calling it a “sucker punch.” As none of the cast members were ready to feel the “intense” emotions full of melancholy.
“It was a sucker punch.No one really expected what we were gonna feel. Because in your mind you’re like, Ooh, time travel! That sounds really cool! And then you’re there and you’re like, Oh, that’s really intense — because so much has happened since.”
While their emotions played a major role in making Rachel Green and Ross Geller an iconic couple, it also became a key highlight in the 10 seasons of the show. But the actors never dated each other.
Rachel Green and Ross Geller’s On-point Chemistry
While the actors are close friends off-screen, their on-screen chemistry as Rachel Green and Ross Geller was unmatched by other on-screen couples. Throughout the 10 seasons of the show, the characters had a complicated and turbulent relationship, that featured numerous breakups and makeups.
Their on-screen relationship began in the first season of the show, when Ross Geller confessed his feelings to Rachel Green, though they dated only for a short span. And while they broke up and dated numerous other people throughout the show, their emotions for each other were always present. While the two characters got back together in the finale of the fourth season, their relationship was again short-lived because the couple wanted different things for themselves.
Ross Geller and Rachel Green have given the viewers a lot of memorable moments from the show, one of the most hilarious moments being from The One Where Ross And Rachel Take A Break episode. In the episode, Ross Geller slept with another woman, and when Rachel Green asked why he did that, he screamed “We were on a break!” and then they had a massive argument.
FRIENDS can be streamed on Netflix.
