Marta Kauffman, co-creator of 'Friends,' reflects on Matthew Perry's legacy as the series approaches its 30th anniversary. She emphasizes two ways to honor him: donating to drug treatment centers and rewatching 'Friends' to remember his humor and joy instead of the circumstances of his death. Perry, who died from an accidental overdose of ketamine in October 2023, had struggled with addiction throughout his life. Following his death, five individuals, including his personal assistant and two doctors, were arrested in connection with the case, leading to concerns about the broader implications within Hollywood. Kauffman and her co-creators expressed their disbelief at Perry's passing, celebrating his talent and the joy he brought to audiences. They urge fans to focus on his contributions rather than the tragedy of his death.
