Even though it’s been 12 years since [_Friends_](http://time.com/4476290/friends-fest-engagement-monica-chandler/) has been off the air, the cast’s knowledge of the show hasn’t diminished, [Lisa Kudrow](http://time.com/4012752/friends-alternate-ending-phoebe-fan/) and [Courteney Cox](http://time.com/4464161/courteney-cox-bear-grylls-aging-hollywood/) reunited to demonstrate their extensive command of _Friends_ trivia.

While appearing on _Celebrity Name Game_, Kudrow and Cox played a bonus round with _Friends-_themed questions where Cox had to create clues for Kudrow to guess the answers.

As expected, “Phoebe” and “Monica” flawlessly handled all the topics with almost no hesitation. Clues ranged from “You sang a song about it” (Smelly Cat) to “I was married to him” (Chandler Bing).

You can watch Phoebe and Monica ace the bonus round in the clip below.
