​Lisa Kudrow is sharing a surprising and painful experience from her days on one of TV’s most iconic shows. Although “Friends” made its cast worldwide celebrities, Kudrow discloses that her off-screen reality didn’t always align with the series’ enormous triumph.

She disclosed that some at her talent agency called her “the sixth Friend,” implying she was viewed as less marketable than her co-stars. As the series surged in popularity—particularly from season two onward—many castmates secured major film roles, but Kudrow sensed those same opportunities weren’t available to her, prompting doubts about her industry standing amid a massive cultural hit.

She starred in low-budget films like “Clockwatchers” and took on supporting roles in movies such as “Mother.” Nevertheless, she valued those experiences, fondly remembering how significant it was to collaborate with actors such as Parker Posey, Toni Collette, and Albert Brooks. Her big break arrived with the 1999 comedy “Analyze This,” in which she appeared with Robert De Niro and Billy Crystal. That part was a pivotal moment.
