The NBC hit sitcom FRIENDS introduced the world to six characters who remain beloved by millions. As fans eagerly followed their every move, from their sarcastic remarks to their fashion choices, the show seamlessly blended fun storylines with high-profile guest appearances.
Although Rachel may have kissed many of these famous faces, there’s one record she didn’t claim: being involved in the show’s sleazier moments.
Interestingly, that honor goes to Matthew Perry’s Chandler Bing, whose character became known for several such moments throughout the series, as reported by some users on Reddit.
Chandler Bing: The Sleaziest Record Holder in FRIENDS History
Chandler Bing, the quintessential office worker with a razor-sharp wit, remains one of FRIENDS‘ most beloved characters. His quick one-liners and endearing awkwardness have made him a fan favorite. Yet, beneath his comedic charm lies a side of Chandler that often goes unnoticed: his occasionally questionable behavior.
In fact, one fan on Reddit observed a recurring pattern in his actions, which could very well crown him as the show’s unintentional king of sleaze.
After coming across the above-mentioned reddit post, several users rushed to the comments section to voice their opinions.
Redditors quickly pointed out several moments from FRIENDS that truly highlight that Chandler Bing has in fact seen everything throughout the series. For instance, one user mentioned the memorable line, “Gum would be perfection,” from Season 1, where Chandler found himself stuck in an ATM vestibule with supermodel Jill Goodacre.
This scene perfectly captured Chandler’s heightened awareness and nervousness around the model. Although he initially declined her offer of gum, his later attempt to correct his mistake led to a hilariously cringe-worthy moment. While some of these scenes might have felt inappropriate to certain viewers, they undeniably provided countless laughter-filled evenings.
As we reflect on what would have been Matthew Perry’s 55th birthday, it’s heartwarming to remember the unforgettable memories he left behind with his portrayal of Chandler Bing – memories that will undoubtedly be cherished by several generations to come.
Remembering Matthew Perry: FRIENDS Shares a Heartwarming 55th Birthday Tribute on Instagram
The beloved actor, Matthew Perry, was honored on August 19, marking the first anniversary of his passing. Best known for his iconic portrayal of Chandler Bing on the hit sitcom FRIENDS, Perry tragically died at the age of 54 last October. The official Instagram account of the sitcom paid tribute to the late star with a heartfelt post, stating, “On this day, we remember the light that was Matthew Perry.”
Perry’s death was ruled a fatal ketamine overdose, and subsequent investigations have led to charges against five individuals, including his live-in assistant, Kenneth Iwamasa. Prosecutors allege that Iwamasa, who lacked medical training, administered drugs to Perry in the days leading up to his death.
Two doctors, Salvador Plasencia and Mark Chavez, are accused of supplying Perry with a large quantity of ketamine, while alleged street dealers Erik Fleming and Jasveen Sangha, dubbed the “Ketamine Queen of Los Angeles,” are also facing charges.
Perry’s long-standing battle with addiction was well documented, and his untimely death deeply impacted his loved ones and fans worldwide.
