    It’s happening

    • Oracle says:

      She’s really being ‘extra,’ for the Apple TV thing and award season. She wants a Golden Globe nod, dangit!!

      I guess it was her PR flack’s idea to have her promotions and activity land the exact week Angelina’s movie comes out. What a coinky that AJ hasn’t had a huge premiere in 3-4 years, but wahddya know, Jen will be there doing the most at the exact. same. time. LOL

      Like I say, her PR flack’s machinations are as predictable as the setting sun…yet genius.

      It’s so funny how he got rid of the Twitter Marvel clip in 24 hours.

      • Bonita says:

        Well, if you really want to go conspiracy theory, Disney probably moved the premiere of Mal 2 up to just before the Nov. 1 debut of “The Morning Show”. After all, it wasn’t supposed to hit the screens until next year! Total coinky-dink that Disney (who is starting their own streaming service) chose the exact same time period as that of Apple’s big streaming launch featuring Aniston and Witherspoon. 😉

      • Bonita says:

        The Apple TV thing that you mentioned.

      • Anne Call says:

        How many people under 30 even know that Aniston and Pitt were married or even care? That’s old school gossip.

      • lucy2 says:

        LOL, do you really think that Jennifer’s PR firm planned this to happen at the same time as Angelina’s Maleficent 2? REALLY?
        Both of these projects have been in the works for YEARS.
        Promotion for projects is always a few weeks before the release.
        Apple’s The Morning Show season cost $150 million. Maleficent was $180 million, so the sequel is probably around $200 million.
        Not to mention the millions spent on ads.
        Not to mention the hundreds of other people involved in each projects – writers, directors, producers, studio executives, crews, casts, etc.
        Apple and Disney are 2 HUMONGOUS companies that are launching new aspects of their businesses.

        You REALLY think Jennifer’s “PR flack” arranged all this, based on 15 year old gossip? Wow.

      • whatWHAT? says:

        lucy2, to add, it’s not like these two are competing projects, either.

        two COMPLETELY different kinds of stories. people aren’t going to choose one or the other due to whose promotion they see. they may choose one or the other if they’re still on one team or the other, but if you don’t care about a 15 year old marriage and divorce, you’d pick which kind of story interests you (maybe BOTH!). and there is NO WAY IN HELL that either of these promotions will cancel out the other one.

        Oracle is going balls out crazy again!

      • Chocolatephrophet says:

        Nah they have all moved on from this triangle nonsense years ago.
        Something that cannot be said for yourself
        Wow.Just Wow .

    • olliesmom says:

      I think so too!

  2. Skylark says:

    I absolutely love that ‘Friends’ reunion pic. That is all.

    • FHMom says:

      I am loving it, also.

      • Bonita says:

        I love the fact that 25 years later, they actually ARE friends. There’s probably not very many long running shows where that actually happens for the cast.

      • lucy2 says:

        I agree Bonita, I think it’s pretty rare, especially for it to be the whole cast. The women especially seemed to have stayed pretty close.

        To be fair, Jennifer was questioning social media use by kids, not so much adults.

      • Bonita says:

        @Lucy2: Real Housewives (of anywhere) 25 year reunion is not going to be quite the same ambiance, lol.

      • Oracle says:

        I heard she and Schwimmer and LeBlanc and Kudrow didn’t really get along after the show ended – esp when she was milking the triangle for all it was worth, and also when Schwimmer got married she didn’t even know he had gotten married and to who – acted clueless on a late night talkie as I remember. So how close can you be?

      • DaisySharp says:

        Really? I heard the opposite, that they are very very close. And that any issues arose because Jen was everyone’s fav. Like, she’s my best friend. No, she’s mine! That kind of thing.

      • whatWHAT? says:

        Daisy, you crack me up.

        how close can you be? close enough to hang out and pose for an insta pic together, I guess. not BFFs, I’m guessing, but do they have to be to do this?

        whatever rift she and Schwimmer had (which I think most folks had forgotten about) has clearly been mended, as they’ve appeared together in various capacities, and are hanging out here. he got married about 10 years ago. I guess he’s able to get over things.

      • DaisySharp says:

        Thanks What? I’m glad there are people who get my sense of humor here. lol

      • cee says:

        Never watched Friends. And can not stand Aniston. She is a liar and a phoney. She does everything for PR, i.e. Joining Instagram which she said she never would, She said she wanted to be a Marvel heroe and now she hates it. Jealous you never got asked much

    • Jess says:

      Me too, I was watching Friends last night and wishing they would do some type of reunion show!

  3. Hmmm says:

    Im not surprised at all. APPLE has a lot riding on the show she has with Witherspoon. They basically backed a giant truck full of money and dumped it on the series.

    I def won’t be getting what apple is selling. I’m happy with Hulu and Netflix. Do we really need yet another streaming service?

    Disney is coming out with one too, ugh!

  4. DaisySharp says:

    Good gawd, I hope she disables the comments on her account.

    • Bonita says:

      Or goes on Kimmel or Howard Stern and reads out the most virulent insane ones for the public to appreciate.

      • DaisySharp says:

        LOL that would be funny, and some of the commenters here are going to be on tv if that happens. Because I just know they ran right over to that instagram page, lol

      • Bonita says:

        She’s probably been getting anti-fan mail like that for years… Lol

      • whatWHAT? says:

        gee Daisy, I CANNOT imagine who you’re referring to. 😉

        those “reading mean tweets” are HILARIOUS. Aniston has done that before, so I’m sure she’d be OK with reading mean insta comments.

    • Chris says:

      That’s a great feature imo – certain individuals would have to hire full time staff to monitor & delete offensive comments…

  5. SM says:

    Can you blame her? She has a new show and she finally got more pro active, so it is kind of mandatory.
    A side question: is it just me, or her hair is looking really wacky during the Morning show promo tour?

    • Hmmm says:

      I never got the Omg her hair is amazing thing. Her hair always seems flat and lifeless to me but it’s one of her “things” or whatever, lol

    • jenner says:

      She really needs a makeover, especially that haircut!

  6. Isa says:

    Her mental health is going to go through the roof.

  7. DiegoInSF says:

    Did they take it with a banana? So grainy and dark!

  8. Jules says:

    It’s crazy that Aniston joining Instagram is considered news.

    • whatWHAT? says:

      it is, but I think it’s because she’s openly admitted that she’s pretty anti-social media, and “stuck in the 90s”. if you consider that an A-lister doesn’t have a FB page, an insta account, etc…it’s strange in these times that someone in her shoes doesn’t use that tool to promote anything.

      add to the fact that her very first pic has over 2million likes, and it’s a news story. whenever a celeb who’s fairly “reclusive” (that’s not Aniston, of course) or isn’t present on social media much actually posts on insta, it’s news.

    • horseandhound says:

      it’s because she is so loved and people are happy for her presence. I love friends. it’s one of my top 3 favorite shows of all time and I love jen as rachel. she is a great comedic actress.

      • Jotis says:

        Agreed! I love her and FRIENDS so much! Followed her immediate as soon as I saw she joined! People can be change their minds too. I go back and forth all the time on social media/internet. YAY for F.R.I.E.N.D.S BEING FRIENDS

      • Hmm says:

        I dislike friends so much. It’s so corny. It has nothing to do with how I feel about Aniston and her weird
        Pr stunts. The acting is atrocious,
        !

        feel like Courtney Cox was the worst out of them all. Cringe and terrible.

  9. SJR says:

    Friends and Frasier, both are on Netflix right now and I admit to tuning in to either of these shows pretty often.

    I can’t find much on tv these days. I don’t give a hoot about all the politics, police, reality, endless chat shows on air.

    It is funny that people under 30 have no clue about Friends or Frasier. They were very much shows “of their time” the 90’s, and most comedy is not timeless and it ages badly.
    I find them “comfort shows” on in the background while I iPad or do chores.

    • Seán says:

      A huge number of under 30s know Friends. People in their mid to late 20s were teens when it was on air and younger generations are finding it on Netflix and it’s incredibly popular. In Ireland and UK, it’s also aired constantly on TV.

      Frasier might be a little less known but also still relatively popular.

    • Erinn says:

      “It is funny that people under 30 have no clue about Friends or Frasier. ”

      This is insane lol. There are SO many gen z kids obsessed with Friends. And there are some that watch Frasier too. I’m 29, so right around the cutoff, but I was watching Frasier when I was at uni.

      • Jess says:

        I came to say that very thing! Everyone under 30 is familiar with Friends, it has a whole new following, including my 12 year old daughter and all of her friends. A lot of the younger women I work with love it too. I see friends gear everywhere, even target and Walmart, it cracks me up!

  10. SURFCHICK says:

    I really can’t stand her.

  11. Sarah says:

    Re the Cambridge audio, it’s pretty clearly “They’re going to be so jealous” not “Meghan’s going to be so jealous”

  12. Pixie says:

    Ummmm…that photo..

    Are those lines of coke on that phone?!

  13. Trish-a says:

    So cute! I miss my *friends* it’s like comfort food!
