I'm truly saddened to hear about the passing of Matthew Perry. He left a lasting mark in the world of entertainment. My earliest memory of watching 'Friends' was during my teenage years when I first discovered the show on TV. I was immediately drawn to its witty humour and the close-knit group of friends. As for Chandler Bing, he had so many memorable moments and scenes that it's tough to choose a favourite. His sarcastic one-liners and unique sense of humour always brought a smile to my face. One standout moment is when he proposes to Monica in the candlelit apartment. Regarding my favourite character from 'Friends', it's difficult to pick just one as they each brought something special to the show. However, Chandler's quick wit and humour always stood out to me, making him a favourite.

It truly broke my heart to hear the news of Matthew Perry’s passing. The ‘Friends’ series has been a significant part of my life, from my childhood to this day. All the characters were special, but Chandler Bing’s one-liners and sarcasm stood out. One of my favourite quotes that still makes me laugh is, ‘I say more dumb things before 9 a.m. than most people say all day.’ Another memorable moment is when Joey mistakenly uses an electric drill, and Chandler says, ‘No, you didn't get me! It's an electric drill! You get me, you kill me!’. Rest in peace Chandler for being an amazing F.R.I.E.N.D.

I was deeply saddened to learn about the passing of Matthew Perry. Chandler Bing had countless hilarious and memorable moments on the show. One that always comes to mind is his sarcastic humour and the way he delivered his lines with impeccable timing. The Thanksgiving episodes were always a highlight, with Chandler's witty comments making them even more special. While I loved Chandler's character, it's hard to pick a favourite among the ensemble cast of "Friends." Each character had their own quirks and contributed in their unique way to the show's success. The dynamic between all the friends is what made the series so extraordinary.

I woke up to this news this morning and Matthew Perry's passing away is truly heartbreaking. Friends is my all-time favourite series to binge-watch. One of my all-time favourite Chandler Bing moments has to be the "pivot" scene when he's helping Ross move a sofa up the stairs. The way Chandler delivers that line is comedic gold. Choosing a favourite character from "Friends" is tough because they all bring something special. However, I've always had a soft spot for Phoebe Buffay. Her quirky and free-spirited nature added a unique charm to the show.

This is the first piece of news I read this morning, and it's truly heartbreaking to learn that Matthew Perry has passed away. 'Friends' means a lot to me, more than just a show; it's an emotional connection. Right now, I'm overwhelmed by the realization that every character in the series was truly remarkable, each bringing their unique emotions and feelings. The entire cast played an indispensable role in creating the magic of 'Friends'. In the past, my favourites were Monica and Joey, but today, hearing this news makes me feel that without the whole ensemble cast, 'Friends' wouldn't have been the same. I can imagine that every 'Friends' fan out there is feeling a sense of loss and reminiscing about those unforgettable Chandler Bing moments.

The news of Matthew Perry's passing is incredibly sad. He'll always be remembered as Chandler Bing from 'Friends,' a character who brought so much humour and joy to the show. My earliest memory of watching 'Friends' dates back to my college days. I was drawn into the world of six friends, each with a unique personality, and I couldn't get enough of their humour and camaraderie. Even today, this show remains my all-time favourite to watch. When it comes to Chandler Bing, it's tough to pick just one favourite moment because there were so many classic scenes. His sarcastic humour was always on point, but one scene that stands out is when he accidentally reveals Monica's Thanksgiving turkey mishap. Another memorable scene is the 'pivot' moment. It was a perfect blend of comedy." Rest in Peace, Matthew Perry.

F.R.I.E.N.D.S is undoubtedly an iconic and evergreen show that has garnered a special place in the hearts of viewers worldwide. It's one of my all-time favourite shows. Chandler Bing's character brought a unique blend of sarcasm and humour to the group, and his witty one-liners were a highlight of the show. Chandler Bing had countless memorable moments, but one that always stands out is his proposal to Monica. The combination of humour and heartfelt emotion in that scene was simply beautiful. While Matthew Perry may no longer be with us, his portrayal of Chandler Bing will forever be a cherished and timeless part of "Friends." His quick wit and humorous moments will continue to bring smiles to the faces of fans, and the show will remain a beloved classic that stands the test of time.

Woke up to this sad news today. Chandler Bing was definitely my favourite in the show "F.R.I.E.N.D.S." His sarcasm was hilarious, and he played his part superbly. I started watching this show when I was in college, and then, during the time of the COVID-19 pandemic, I was binge-watching it again. This show and the six characters are still refreshing and always will be. It's really disheartening, and we will miss him for sure. Rest in Peace, Matthew Perry.
