The Handmaid’s Tale is not friendly by nature, even when actual Friends show up. One of Season 2’s most bizarre moments almost didn’t happen, as producers reveal a labyrinthine process to get brief footage of a classic Friends episode into Gilead.
Now that one of CBS’ most visible 2016 decisions is out of the way, the eye network sets its gaze on the new crop of pickups, and what they might replace. Officially ordered to series now are a Training Day sequel with Bill Paxton as the lead, and a thrice-baked MacGyver reboot, among others.
NBC’s Friends may have given us one of the last great three-camera sitcoms, but might it have been so successful under the original title, Insomnia Café? Or with Jon Cryer as Chandler? Find an extra capable of working the espresso machine, as the 33rd episode of ‘You Think You Know TV?’ commandeers the couch at Central Perk for some friendly facts from Friends.

In what we can assume was either Showtime's most expensive attempt at a pun, or either the most redundant Google search, Showtime has officially issued a triple-decker for Matt LeBlanc by ordering another round of his hit meta comedy. But in all seriousness, how many episodes will the next round of 'Episodes' be? Will the former 'Friends' star receive a reduced order,
'Shameless' and 'House of Lies' have fallen to the wayside, and now we have 'The Big C,' 'The Borgias,' and 'Nurse Jackie' to tide us over for the time being, but how else are we going to survive the long wait until 'Dexter' and 'Homeland?'
