Netflix shows like Friends: Feel Good

Seasons: 2

Created By: Mae Martin and Joe Hampson

Starring: Mae Martin, Charlotte Ritchie, Lisa Kudrow, Sophie Thompson, Phil Burgers

Since ending Friends, the six main cast members have all made their way back to television to our absolute delight. David Schwimmer landed an Emmy Award nomination for his role in The People v. O. J. Simpson and Jennifer Aniston won a SAG Award for her turn in The Morning Show, marking triumphant returns for both. But Lisa Kudrow has consistently brought laughs on screens both big and small.

No stranger to guest-starring roles and recurring roles in all kinds of comedy series, Lisa Kudrow returned to starring role status in Netflix’s underrated 2020 original comedy series Feel Good. The show follows comedian Mae (Mae Martin) and her new relationship with girlfriend George (Charlotte Ritchie). Kudrow stars as Mae’s mother, Linda, in yet another scene-stealing role for the Emmy winner.

You’ll find that Lisa Kudrow pops up in guest roles in many more of the shows still to come on this list, but her appearance and performance in Feel Good might be one of her most underrated. In 2020, you probably also caught Kudrow in Netflix’s Space Force, but if you want another taste of Pheebs (reference!), make sure to add Feel Good to your watch list ahead of the second and final season in June 2021.
