Anna Faris of CBS' "Mom": Forever a Friend of "Friends"

(Editor's note:  This column, the first in our Friends of Friends series, was originally published on June 1, 2016.)  It’s hard to believe 12 years have passed since the door to Monica’s empty apartment closed and the characters on “Friends” headed to Central Perk for one last java.  Fans of the series might live in hope of a much talked about reunion, but most of us are content with endless re-runs of this modern-day sitcom classic.
