Friends Characters: Who Are They?
So, what are the characters of the hit TV series Friends
all about anyway? Take a look at this list of the main characters, their relatable personalities, and iconic quotes.
Joey Tribbiani is the goofy, handsome guy next door. He’s smooth with the ladies, capturing their attention with a wink and suave catchphrase, “How you doin’?” One thing about Joey is that he loves sandwiches and can often be found digging through Monica’s fridge for leftovers. When Joey isn’t hanging out with the group, he’s pursuing his acting career.
Rachel Green is the beautiful woman everyone wants to be. She may seem like just a pretty face, but Rachel is so much more than that! She’s got an eye for fashion, is a caring and thoughtful friend, and is incredibly confident. When she moves in with her childhood bestie Monica, she pushes aside her richie-rich roots and starts learning that life is a series of trials and tribulations.
Ross Geller is the dorky but lovable friend. He’s obsessed with dinosaurs and even has a Ph.D. in paleontology—he’ll never hesitate to share an exciting dino fact. Ross has a lot going on: his ex-wife is a lesbian, he has a young son, and he’s been in love with Rachel since high school. More often than not, this guy is caught pivoting between priorities and explaining that they were simply “on a break.”
Monica Geller is the dependable mom of the group. Neat, organized, and dignified, she’s always willing to lend a helping hand. She’s a highly esteemed chef in the big city, driven to the career by her love for food. Her apartment is the center of her gathered friend group, and even her brother Ross spends more time there than at his place. At the end of the day, Monica knows she can be a bit overbearing, which is why she constantly rebuttals with, “I know!”
Chandler Bing is the sensible one of the group. An executive specializing in statistical analysis and data reconfiguration, Chandler is your run-of-the-mile office guy…or so it seems. As he once introduced himself, “Hi, I’m Chandler. I make jokes when I’m uncomfortable.” This man is full of witty one-liners and sarcastic comments. While he may be the humorous one of the group, he also uses humor to mask his existential crises.
Phoebe Buffay is the creative one. Eclectic, enthusiastic, and optimistic, Phoebe is the light at every party. When she’s not working as a masseuse, she plays original songs on the Central Perk (the coffee shop where the group hangs out) stage, reads people’s auras, or advocates for animal rights. Her unique take on life stems from her interesting upbringing. After all, she did grow up believing her grandma got her recipe for chocolate chip cookies from a French friend named Neslée Toulousé.
