Remembering Matthew Perry with his iconic moments as Chandler Bing on Friends

Chandler Bing's iconic moments

It's been a year since the Friends star Matthew Perry left us. Perry made millions of people laugh out loud with his portrayal of Chandler Bing. On Oct. 28, 2023, Perry was found in an unconscious condition in the hot tub of his Los Angeles home.

Perry, who started acting at the age of 15, rose to fame when he starred in the role of Chandler Bing in the 90s series Friends, which made him a star overnight.

Friends, which went on to become the most beloved show in American TV history, revolved around the story of six friends living in New York. The show starred Perry as Chandler, Jennifer Aniston as Rachel, Courteney Cox as Monica, David Schwimmer as Ross, Lisa Kudrow as Phoebe, and Matt LeBlanc as Joey. While six of them have their specialities and bring uniqueness to the show in their own way, Chandler's witty one-liners make his character stand out.
