Chandler Bing was always a source of comfort. Hence, even though it’s been a few days, the passing of Matthew Perry still feels unreal.
Even though it’s been a few days, the passing of Matthew Perry still feels unreal. He left a void in the lives of Friends fanatics like me and millions more. After all, he and the gang had always been there to lift my spirits during life’s low moments. Chandler Bing was always a constant source of comfort.
Our minds act in mysterious ways. Ever notice how it tries to make things up to make you feel better when you are not feeling yourself? Right now, my mind imagines Chandler living his best life after his death—in his personal heaven, free from addiction, and with mental health as robust as his sense of humour.
I recently read that Matthew Perry wanted to be remembered for more than just being Chandler Bing (which definitely made sense). He made significant efforts to help people struggling with addiction, even though he couldn’t always help himself.
Circling back to Chandler Bing, ever wonder what made his character click, despite the show ending almost 20 years ago? Let’s reiterate, shall we?
Simply put, Chandler stood out as one of the best characters in the series, because of his quick wit, sarcastic humour, and remarkable character development during the run of the series.
Over the years, I have narrowed down a few go-to episodes that focus on Chandler and throw light on his multifaceted persona.
Here they are:
These episodes capture some of Chandler’s most memorable moments and are a wonderful way to keep his memory alive.
So, every time I miss Chandler, I am going to watch them. What about you? How are you going to keep his legacy alive?

If her MIL had accepted her with some affection, wouldn't they have built a mutually happier relationship by now?
The incident took place ten years ago.
Smita could visit her mother only in summers when her daughter had school holidays. Her daughter also enjoyed meeting her Nani, and both of them had done their reservations for a week. A month before their visit, her husband told her, “My mom is coming for 4-5 months!”
Smita shuddered. She knew the repercussions. She would have to hear sarcastic comments from her mother-in-law for visiting her mother. She may make these comments directly only a bit, but her servants would be flooded with the words, “How horrible she is! She leaves me and goes!”
Maybe Animal is going to make Ranbir the superstar he yearns to be, but is this the kind of legacy his grandfather and granduncles would wish for?
I have no intention of watching Animal. I have heard it’s acting like a small baby screaming and yelling for attention. However, I read some interesting reviews which gave away the original, brilliant and awe-inspiring plot (was that sarcastic enough?), and I don’t really need to go watch it to have an informed opinion.
A little boy craves for his father’s love but doesn’t get it so uses it as an excuse to kill a whole bunch of people when he grows up. Poor paapa (baby) what else could he do?
I was wondering; if any woman director gets inspired by this movie and replicates this with a female protagonist, what would happen?. Oh wait, that’s the story of so many women in this world. Forget about not giving them love, you have fathers who try to kill their daughters or sell them off or do other equally despicable things.
