What Actor on Friends had the best career

[low-key]

The show was magic, but as individuals they all have been working actors afterwards but none huge

I will go with Jennifer Aniston

Aniston, but they all make so much money from residuals it's tough to say. A talented bunch for sure. Matt LeBlanc on Episodes on Netflix is one of the funniest sitcoms of all time for me. I've watched all 5 seasons 4 times over the past couple of years.

you are correct jenifer Aniston

 

[Kittyblue]

She's the one that did the most after the show, I think. Matthew Perry didn't do too bad, I'm actually surprised he didn't do more. He's funny.

 

[mumto3girls]

Another vote for Jennifer Aniston.

 

[Disneylover99]

I’m probably wrong but I’m going to rank them career wise off the top of my head……

Rachel
Joey
Ross - just cause I know he has a series out at the moment
Monica/Chandler/Phoebe - tied for last - I can’t think of anything they've been in after Friends

Sorry, I couldn’t think of all their real names. Lol.

 

[fla4fun]

I don’t know. I am inclined to choose Lisa Kudrow. Not just because of her acting career (several movies and tv appearances), but her work as a writer and producer. I really like the show Who Do You Think You Are? and she was an executive producer on that show.

 

[low-key]

you know an argument could be made for each actor

 

[EricLaurie]

Another vote for Jennifer Aniston. All of the others have done well and have worked steadily with the possible exception of Matthew Perry who has had some health issues.

 

[Dan Murphy]

Never watched it when first run, nor in re-runs. I know Aniston's name, that's about it.

I can watch sitcoms made after the 70's for about 5 minutes. 70's sitcoms for maybe 15 minutes. 50's and 60's, the full program usually.

come on Dan it keeps us young by keeping up with the times

 

[neverlandsky]

Technically Aniston was a legacy kid and had a leg up in the field since her parents were both actors. Not to say she didn’t work hard because she definitely did and has earned everything. Yet since she had an easier start career wise, she’s not my first pick. So Leblanc ultimately gets my vote.

 

[starry_solo]

None of them.

The gals did better than the guys as far as acting goes.

CC Had the scream movies But thats it.
LK had Remy & Michelle's HS reunion but that was the only thing I remember.
JA had ? Well Brad Pitt, lol. I think she's on an Apple TV show now?

I remember Matt le blanc was on a spin off of Married with Children...that didn't last long. Lol. But that was before Friends.

Courtney Cox starred in Cougar Town.
Kudrow was in Curb Your Enthusiasm and does a lot of behind the scenes work.
Aniston has been in several comedies. Horrible Bosses, We're the Millers et al. She's probably had the most steady work.
Schwimmer did Band of Brothers, the Madagascar movies, The People vs OJ Simpson.
LeBlanc was in Episodes, was a presenter on Top Gear, and had that CBS sitcom.
Perry hasn't really had much in terms of hit shows. He did beat up PM Justin Trudeau when they were kids, so I guess there's that.

 

[Kitty 34]

I only watched a few episodes of Friends but I would have to say Aniston.

I do like LeBlanc in his sitcom "Man with a Plan" even tho I think that is canceled now.

With the exception of Matthew Perry, who hasn’t had a lot, they’ve all gone to have hit tv shows again.

Anniston (Rachel) definitely has had the most notable post Friends career, but they’ve all continued to stay busy in the industry.

Aniston:went on to do over a dozen hit movies and currently stars on The Morning Show (Multiple award noms)

Kudrow: The Comeback & Web Therapy, plus is producing a lot.

Cox: Cougar Town, will do the 5th Scream movie, also turned to directing/producing

Schwimmer: Madagascar, People vs OJ (Emmy nomination), returned to theater, took up directing/producing

LeBlanc: Episodes, Top Gear, Man with a Plan

Perry: some single season sitcom, some directing

We loved Episodes.
