The actress, who starred as Rachel Green during the show's 10-season run, continued: "This one time I was with Courteney, and we were trying to find something to reference, an old 'Friends' thing. And then we stumbled on — there's bloopers online — and we sat there at the computer like two nerds watching these bloopers laughing at ourselves."
In response, Kudrow said that she's also spent "hours watching bloopers."
Aniston and Kudrow, who played Phoebe Buffay, went on to reminisce about breaking character while filming humorous scenes of the show.
"Here's what I love, is when I watch an episode, I'll usually remember where we broke during the scene," Aniston said.
She continued: "You and I would always get into these fits of laughter because you had this wonderful ability to — you were about to hit your punchline, and you would do this adorable thing where you would break. You would say the punchline, and you would always turn to the audience and say, 'I'm sorry, it's really funny.'"
