TVLine Items: Second Friends Reunion Set For Web Therapy, Big C Casts Mercy Grad And More!
Former Friends David Schwimmer and Lisa Kudrow will soon reunite on the latter's new Showtime series, Web Therapy.
Schwimmer has booked a four-episode arc on the comedy's upcoming Season 2, EW.com reports, playing a man who was traumatized after witnessing a "romantic encounter" between his father and Kudrow's character, Fiona. What's more, he's now only attracted to women who resemble the therapist. Hmm, wonder if he knows she has a sassy twin who waits tables in NYC?
A Season 1 stop-by from Courteney Cox marked Web Therapy's first reunion of Friends.
