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. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/4507557/courteney-cox-lisa-kudrow-friends-trivia/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/4507557/courteney-cox-lisa-kudrow-friends-trivia/"},"headline":"Watch Courteney Cox and Lisa Kudrow Reunite to Play Friends Trivia","datePublished":"2016-09-26T15:07:17.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:36:58.372Z","description":"Looks like Monica's competitive edge is still there","url":"https://time.com/4507557/courteney-cox-lisa-kudrow-friends-trivia/","keywords":["Newsfeed","Entertainment","Television","Friends","celebrity"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9c9af4df95e3e5b2/6988a775cf40a88f27c44f1d/courtney-cox-lisa-kudrow-friends-trivia.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Cady Lang","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/cady-lang/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/blt9c9af4df95e3e5b2/6988a775cf40a88f27c44f1d/courtney-cox-lisa-kudrow-friends-trivia.jpg?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"P.S.
