I'm kinda surprised that the fact that Courtney Cox went through miscarriage was not in this list, especially considering that it was during the arc of her and Chandler trying to get pregnant. There was a reason that phone call of Monica finding out her uterus is a "hostile environment" was so sadly well acted by

[samsmith]

I'm kind of surprised that they didn't mention how Courtney had to film "The One Where Rachel Gives Birth" shortly after she had a miscarriage. Yet Jennifer not liking her hairstyle makes it to the list ???

Still can’t believe he’s gone. You’ll be remembered forever.

Absolutely heartbreaking for me. Friends got me through so many rough years. Rest in paradise Mathew

Unfortunately Matthew Perry hasn’t been sober since 2001. The memoir discusses how he has relapsed 50-60 times over the years, the most recent being 2018 which left him in a coma. He just did a whole press tour about it, it’s a big detail to get incorrect.

To me, the saddest story has to be about Matthew Perry. Chandler has always been my favourite character. Thanks to Matthew. I remember him playing Carol Seaver's boyfriend Sandy in "Growing Pains". Sad episode too. I really wish him the best. My best Friend, indeed.

Jennifer Aniston not liking her hair is not a dark truth, guys.

[Lirio-bo]

"When you're alone you lose", so true Mathew. He had finally come to terms with how the decease of addiction never stops trying to torment you especially when you're alone. He realized that it attacks and tries to reel you back into it's web when you're alone. One can never learn enough about this caniving decease...
RIP Mathew Perry 🙏

[ChildrenoftheCorny]

As someone who lost a few years of my 20’s to addiction and Homelessness, seeing Mathew Perry towards the end breaks my heart and will keep me fighting to stay sober for another 9 years

I love that they all wanted to get paid equally.

[bigmediafan]

The full story of the pay negotiation is more interesting than that. It was actually David Schwimmer. One of the highest paid of the 6 who got them together and insisted that they do it. Matthew Perry thanks him in his autobiography for it.

[trinaq]

It's very clever how the writers were able to incorporate Joey's injury into the script. Also, David Schwimmer seems like a swell, shy guy in real life, I can understand why he wasn't entirely thrilled with his newfound fame, same with Matt.

RIP Matthew Perry your legacy will continue to live for more generations to come ❤. Rest easy

[RSully]

Matthew, Matt, Lisa and the others all did an incredible job on the show and I hope with Matthew and Lisa in particular they are in better places now with their mind and body.

[calumsanderson]

The irony of Andre Agassi getting jealous over Brooke Shields licking Matt Leblanc's fingers, being unable to tell between fiction and reality, when that was Brooke's entire goddamned arc on the episode.

[paradigmshift]

What’s sad about Perry’s situation is that now all the little teens on tiktok just make fun of him and talk trash about him even though he’s clearly a very broken person.

[sandralvacca]

I hope the entire cast knows how much this show touched us all and made us smile, laugh, and even cry. 🖤 I wish them all the best.

[AmyLSchulte]

The editing of inserts from the show that correlate with each “truth” are brilliant.

[trinaq]

Wow, I had no idea that Andre Agassi was THAT jealous over Brooke merely licking Matt's hand on screen. Maybe his anger issues are why their eventual marriage only lasted for two years.

[victoriaR]

I kind of just want to give Mathew Perry a hug. He went through alot
