As of late, there has been plenty of Friends nostalgia for fans to get their teeth into. Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer recently shared a hilarious online exchange. And now, Courteney Cox has gotten involved in her own unique way. The actor, who famously portrayed Monica Geller in the hit sitcom, revived Friends for a sweet — not to mention, clever — Instagram video.

The clip begins with Cox opening a promo gift hamper she’s received from Aniston, celebrating the launch of her latest LolaVie hair care products. Ever the supportive pal, Cox says: “I love Lolavie.” And the uplifting gesture went both ways, as Aniston supported Cox’s Homecourt lifestyle brand by including a candle from the collection.

But the video only gets better from there. A coy Cox asks aloud: “How did we become these entrepreneurs? How did we know about this stuff?” This then segues into a Friends video montage, showing a scene whereby Aniston’s character Rachel Green accuses Ross Geller (Schwimmer) of being jealous of her hair. Meanwhile, Cox’s love of all things home and living is represented with a clip of Monica famously using a mini hoover to clean her larger hoover.

The post was captioned “Life imitates art,” and we must admit, it was a genius marketing moment. Lisa Kudrow, who portrayed Phoebe Buffay in the series, commented: “I never put that together,” referencing the relationship between the characters’ on-screen quirks and the actors’ business ventures IRL.

It’s been 28 years since Friends first aired, yet these ladies remain as tight as ever. We love to see it.
