Kudrow
If series star Lisa Kudrow is any indication, NBC and Warner Bros. TV shouldn't count their "Friends" out just yet.
Kudrow, for one, may be willing to continue with the show beyond this upcoming season, which as of now will likely be its last.
Interviewed for the second season premiere of Oxygen's "Conversations From the Edge With Carrie Fisher" (which airs Aug. 18), Kudrow told the host that she didn't know if this would actually be the final season of "Friends."
"You know now I hope not," Kudrow said. "I'm actually comfortable saying I'm not. Which means it probably will be the last year.
"You know we all get along, and we still have fun and the writers are still working really hard and they do good stories," she said. "You look around and you see that a lot of reasons shows finish is (that) the ratings are really bad. We were No. 1 for the first time ever in our eighth season."
