Friends 20th Anniversary: Top 10 Funniest Ross Geller Quotes

It has been 20 years since hit US comedy Friends graced our screens and thankfully has never left our sight thanks to multiple reruns in countries across the globe.

Barring Courtney Cox, who had already appeared on US TV in Family Ties in the 1980s, Jennifer Anniston, Matt Le Blanc, Matthew Perry, David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow, were all relatively unknown actors when Friends was launched on 22 September, 1994. They could never have anticipated the wave of huge popularity that would follow in the next 10 years, which would propel them to international stardom.

The last episode in May 6, 2004 drew 52.5 million viewers - making it the fourth most-watched series finale in television history.
