In the words of Janice, OH. MY. GOD.
The trailer for the Friends reunion special on HBO Max dropped on Wednesday afternoon, and yeah, it looks awesome. From everything we know about the special, we know it’s going to be quite an event, with plenty of guest stars and such.
But what did we learn from the trailer? Let’s run through a few things we saw that are notable ahead of the special dropping on May 27th, from the test (!) to the visit to some of those iconic sets. (And while you’re at it, we did a whole Friends week with content devoted to everything from ranking the friends to the greatest sports moments from the show).

They play a trivia game like the one from "The One with All the Embryos"
It appears they’re being tested on actual Friends trivia.

They visit the old sets
There are Monica’s and Joey’s apartments (with the chairs!), Central Perk and it appears they’ll do something outside with the fountain where the opening titles were shot.

They all seem so happy to be together
So much love!
our lovely family 💜💜💜💜 #FriendsReunion pic.twitter.com/0s6yrAmHGt
