“Friends” fans can put their knowledge of the show to the test by competing on “Fast Friends,” an upcoming game show based on the classic NBC comedy, Warner Bros. announced Sept. 23.
The new four-part game show, which will stream on Max, begins production next month at “The ‘Friends’ Experience” interactive exhibit in New York.
The show will invite die-hard “Friends” fans to answer trivia questions, solve puzzles and participate in challenges that take place in the exhibit’s re-created sets from the show.
“From racing through Rachel and Monica’s apartment to darting across Joey and Chandler’s bachelor pad and grabbing a coffee at Central Perk, fans will re-live their favorite moments while being put to the test with trivia, puzzles, and games that will keep even the most die-hard FRIENDS fans on their toes,” the studio said.
The team that makes its way through the challenges the fastest will win the title of “Ultimate Friends Fan.”
The announcement comes as “Friends” celebrates the 30th anniversary of its debut episode on Sept. 22, 1994, which marked the first time viewers met Ross (David Schwimmer), Rachel (Jennifer Aniston), Chandler (Matthew Perry), Monica (Courteney Cox), Joey (Matt LeBlanc) and Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow).
