For this Times reporter, Matthew Perry was a relatable person whose indelible character on 'Friends' provided an escape and a laugh, even now as the public processes his death.
On the day that Matthew Perry died, it was inevitable that I, like so many others, would turn to him to help process the heartache. I reached for the remote to turn on my TV, and quickly tapped on “Friends” in the “Continue Watching” tab.
No other character on the show came close to offering the complexities of Chandler Bing. Perry managed to perfectly portray Chandler’s anxiety and insecurities, leaving us with a character who was relatable and hilarious, and oh so comforting, And he came into my living room and became my funny friend just as my father’s alcoholism was showing the power of its unrelenting grip.
