Sure, the gang are fun, but they’re not the whole story!

The Central Perk Sofa!

Incredible! Now some people might not think of the safe’s sofa as a character - but why not? It’s there all the time, and of all of the different characters in the show, it’s by far the most supportive! It’s there whenever anything big happens and can you name a more iconic piece of furniture? But it’s the support that’s probably why you’ve gotten this result, you're the kind of person that is always there for your friend - so nice one!

Gunther!

Nice! You’ve got the most in common with Gunther! Now like so many of the Friends side characters, Gunther is a regular and well known face - the gang know him like the back of their hands. But because Gunther is always there, the show simply wouldn’t work without him, and just like you, although you might not always get the credit you deserve - the world wouldn’t quite be the same without you playing your part in it!

Bright Kauffman | NBC

Mr Heckles!

Awesome! You’ve got the most in common with Mr Heckles, the grumpy upstairs neighbour! That’s not to say you’re grumpy or anything, but only that you don’t suffer fools easily! For Mr Heckles, the gang downstairs are simply a nuisance - take that as you will! But heck, if you don’t like this result, why not try the quiz again and see if you can get a different result?!

Bright Kauffman | NBC

Mike Hannigan!

Epic! You’ve got the most in common with Mike, played by the now super famous Paul Rudd, Mike was a standout star of the show, even though they never became one of the big parts! Just like Mike, you’re the kind of person that keeps the show going from behind the scenes - and you never know, maybe fame and greatness awaits?!
