If someone mentions the theme to Friends, in your mind you start singing The Rembrandts’ I’ll Be There For You. You loved that song and it puts a smile on your face whenever you hear it.
But it was a different story for the cast of the beloved sitcom. After talking about Sex Toys on BBC’s The One Show, Jennifer Aniston was asked about that tune we know so well. Rachel revealed, “We were all never a big fan, no was ever really a big fan of that theme song.” Then she added, “We felt it was a little, I don’t know, dancing in a pond, felt like a fountain, felt sort of odd, but we did it.”
It might’ve felt odd to her, but the fans loved it. That is why you can close your eyes right now and see them dancing in that fountain she hated.
And whenever I close my eyes during any of the movies she has done since the sitcom, all I see is Rachel because every role she does is her character on Friends. Seriously, tell me I am not the only one who thinks she is a one note wonder.
