Asking Kimmel to imagine that he’d visited the gang’s apartment to hang out with Ross, Bayer riffed on how exclusive the six friends really were. She even made time for an awkward moment with Chandler. (Don’t forget, he makes jokes when he’s uncomfortable.) Check out Bayer’s full performance, complete with an especially dead-on Rachel Green impression, below. _This_ [_article_](http://www.ew.com/article/2015/06/30/vanessa-bayer-friends-cast) _originally appeared on_ [_EW.com_](http://www.ew.com) ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3941424/vanessa-bayer-friends-impression/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3941424/vanessa-bayer-friends-impression/"},"headline":"Vanessa Bayer's Friends Impressions Will Leave You Missing Rachel Green","datePublished":"2015-06-30T14:36:42.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:21:38.046Z","description":"“The One Where Vanessa Bayer is Everyone”","url":"https://time.com/3941424/vanessa-bayer-friends-impression/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Television","celebrity","Late Night Television"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Kelly Connolly / Entertainment Weekly"}],"articleSection":"","image":[],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/3941424/vanessa-bayer-friends-impression/","name":"Vanessa Bayer's Friends Impressions Will Leave You Missing Rachel Green"}}]}] ```
