The long-awaited Friends reunion is just around the corner, airing May 27 on Binge. Could we be anymore excited?

It probably doesn’t come as a surprise that we’re pretty keen to see the Friends cast – along with a stack of special guests – get together and reminisce about the much beloved sitcom. If you really want to get into the mood, we’ve put together our 10 favourite Friends episodes to watch before the reunion drops.

If you’re on a break from rewatching the series (because you’ve already seen the entire series at least 50 times), but still have Friends fever, there are few other ways you can fly the flag for your favourite sitcom.

Want to know everything there is to know about this sitcom? Friends Forever: The One About the Episodes is a chunky coffee-table book that goes through all 236 episodes from the series.

If you’re keen on reading how the show originally came together and how it transformed both sitcoms and pop culture as a whole, Generation Friends is the book you want.

It’s a pretty breezy read and even if you consider yourself an unbeatable trivia buff, it has some surprising behind-the-scenes details about the show’s production. Did you you know Monica and Joey were originally going to be the show’s big romantic couple?
