Another potential contender could be Channel 4, which aired the sitcom from its first season back in 1995 on Friday nights. The success of the sitcom in the UK spiked further when the cast and crew flew to London for the fourth season, which saw David Schwimmer's character, Ross Geller, marry Emily Waltham, played by British actress Helen Baxendale.
In more recent times, Friends has been available to watch in the UK on Comedy Central and on Netflix UK, who acquired the rights to stream all ten seasons.
The reunion on HBO Max will also feature some special guest stars
Meanwhile, the stars of the multi award-winning comedy have been gearing up for its release later this month. Jennifer Aniston, who played Rachel throughout the ten-season run, was one of the first to share a teaser clip on Instagram.
The video sees all five Friends walking hand-in-hand while an acoustic version of the theme tune, The Rembrandts' I'll Be There For You, plays in the background. The actress wrote in the caption: "It's official! The #FriendsReunion premieres May 27th on @HBOMax. Could we BE any more excited?"
