When he says he wants to be remembered for helping people, not for his role as Chandler, I hope he knew that Friends did help people. It brought families together, it gave them something to look forward to, it made friends out of strangers. His performance as Chandler helped me. For many depressed people he was what would make a smile appear.
Watched friends alot when my ex left me 15 years ago I watched it so much I beat the ps2 trivia game on the hardest level. Friends has definitely helped me get through my darkest of days I was very salty when it got taken off Netflix. Chandler and Joey were definitely my favorites..
Robin Williams killed himself very deliberately and struggled with mental illness. Perry simply lacked imagination and was lucky to not have died sooner. I don't see how you liken the two. But then you White Friends reruns probably hold your interest.
"Why is it that the original thinkers like River Phoenix and Heath Ledger die, but Keanu Reeves still walks among us?" -Mathew Perry Yeah, what a sweetheart.
@@jangles7906people say stuff sometimes and get it wrong. He did admit to getting it wrong. So you've NEVER said a negative thing about someone and been wrong. But because he's famous everyone knows. Saying something like that on a whim doesn't define a person. He was saying that about his acting skills. and probably a joke that came across really badly. And although Keanu is a nice person, he's not the best actor. if you feel so badly about Mathew, why watch this? Or are you just a troll?
Sadly, I don't think he did realize how loved he was. I think *he* felt unworthy of love for some reason, which led to his addictions. Heartbreaking. 😭
I can watch friends over and over again. Friends cannot be fun without Matthew. I’m glad we have Friends to look back . RIP Matthew Perry . Thank you for all the smiles and laughter . Thank you for Friends
I can't remember the last time a celebrity death hit me this hard. I sobbed through this entire episode. I loved Chandler, but I routed for Matthew. RIP 🙏😥
I agree.. I’m completely gutted. Never cried before for someone I never knew or met. I have felt sad yes, but this one hit hard. Tears have been streaming down my face.
This one really hit me hard. What a loss for this world. He wasn’t just an actor. He made lemonade out of his life’s lemons and truly wanted to help people. He did help people and he will continue to help people with his honest memoir. Rest peacefully Matthew ❤
Crying my eyes out, again. As others have said, it really does feel like a personal loss because some people watched friends when they were going through childhood abuse, struggles, addiction, depression etc. He truly was a very, very special man and I'm devastated that we've lost him. Fly and watch over us all, Matt man 💚
Please put ur own family AND friends, and urself first. They were characters on a series. I can't spend time "clinging" ANF "clinging" to anything or anyone, everything, everyone is /are impermanence
Yes, for my Friends was all I had. I was isolated in a domestic abusive relationship. I have come full circle & now coaching other women to heal from past domestic abuse & be the powerful person they are!
Beautiful tribute. I have never been rocked so hard by a celebrity passing. I was a big fan and read his memoir just a few weeks ago. It was stunning and I've recommended it to everyone since then. Even if you're not a fan, his book is a must read and an incredible insight into the mind of an addict.
I have been a huge fan of his, too. And I agree with you that losing him has been truly a heartbreaking loss for me, too. I was just reading his book (actually listening to it on Audible narrated by Matthew himself) when I heard of his passing and it made it even more painful to hear him speak about his pain and suffering that he had lived with. So so sad! I really loved him so much and he gave me so much happiness, joy and laughter in his work. He was a magical comedic actor. 😊
I'm over 70 yrs old. I have seen young people's lives taken too soon over and over because of something that could have been prevented. I'm glad he wrote a memoir so it can help others but I'm pretty sure young people will never learn.
@marisadalan8443 I'm not sure if you have addicts in your life, but while i do appreciate where you're coming from, it isn't a matter of learning, and Matthew himself would have said the same thing. It's about hitting rock bottom. That's the only way someone will be ready to get help.
I had the pleasure of working on the set of FRIENDS, Matthew Perry was always my favorite to have a chat with, no pretense just kindness and a beautiful smile. Rest in Peace Matthew, thank you I for the laughter you gave us for so many years😢
@kurtpena- "whose loss"? are u serious? H 18:15 e had millions of fans, not to mention a mother, a father, a step-father, five half-siblings and a step-brother. You need psychiatric help dude!!
@@robinhallett-yc3hw perhaps you should reserve your disdain for Matthew's parents. Their abuse, neglect and abandonment put him on the trajectory that resulted in his early death. Go read his book.

Matthew Perry playing Chandler Bing gave us the most memorable one liners and scenes on Friends. My favorite sitcom character 😢 RIP Matthew you will be so missed ❤
Poor guy. He was lovable onscreen and off. As somebody who luckily has never suffered addiction, it's hard to understand how self-destructive it is. Hope he found his peace.
Addiction is pure evil and powerful. The cravings are excruciating and you will want the drugs more than food. It's crazy and disturbing. I have an opioid addiction. I'm glad you never experienced it. God bless you amd stay healthy.

It wasn’t just the fact he was “famous”. It’s the honesty. As someone who struggles with addiction. Matthew made things make sense, Reading excerpts of his book I’m learning more and more about him. I hope he knows that Friends isn’t all that he left behind, he will continue to help people. Rest easy 🙏
The saddest thing is that Matt did not realize how beautiful he was, how much he deserved to be loved by a wife and have kids with her. He was alone when he passed maybe a little happy but alone.
I brushed it off as a fake story, but just in case a couple hours later I looked it up. What a major bumming out, but he made so long in comparison to Heath Ledger. So it's not quite as biting, but still a very unwanted thing.
I got the news from a notification on my phone. I cried off and on for days afterwards. It still doesn't seem real, even though it's been almost 2 months. Matthew definitely had many more years ahead of him. 54 is much too young to die. 🥺🦇💔
A series that no one can beat, thanks to the excellent actors and this wonderful story about friendship. You can leave this bad world, these crazy and evil times behind you for a while when you watch Friends. Peace, harmony and friendship, what every person actually wants. Thanks to everyone and R.I.P, Matthew Perry-Chandler Bings. Love you💖 See you in heaven
I have not been one for crying over celebrity deaths, but I was full on ugly crying over his death. Thank you Matthew, for the laughs, the one liners, and making the world feel like you were their friend.
He's the bestest of all I cried for two days straight but after seeing this I realised that he did everything he could to survive. He was such a generous and a kind human being and now he can rest peacefully 🙏
@@davebryant8050I'm s9 confused. He never stopped? I didn't even know he had this life style until a day ago 😮😢 he will be missed but after reading all his surgeries and stuff I thought that was w 3ake up call 😮😢 I'm sad he's gone. Look like he suffered ALOT. I'm curious why he was depressed ?? 😢 I hope he's flying up in heaven and let Jesus take care of him. Its a shame he's gone.
@@davebryant8050you probably do not know what it is like be an addict to drugs and alcohol right? Don’t even go there…it is a real disease, worst than Cancer, HIV, or Covid…it is a silent killer…I have been diagnosed with PTSD, Depression and Alcoholic for 30 years…After I got back from Afghanistan…I lost few friends there in Combat…it was really suck…I just recently get recovery and over 19 months sober…I am going back to school for Electrical Engineering…I have to leave all my family, my old friend and my old town…to start a new life again…it is not easy for anyone who has this disease…that’s why you see so many homeless on streets…be grateful what you have and others don’t have…help others if you can…even give a little…God bless you…Good luck…
This was sooo BEAUTIFUL!! I have always been a big fan of 'Friends' but I have been a BIGGER FAN of Matthew Perry. I just wanted him to KEEP FIGHTING and KEEP WINNING against his battles. I cannot stop crying...he's at peace now...REST EASY MATTHEW PERRY...you have helped and encouraged more people than you will ever know...
This is so sad. Makes me miss my best buddy, who I lost a few years ago. He was more like a brother. I hope Matthew Perry is up there making everyone laugh and is feeling so healthy. He seemed like a real, genuine, true friend, like my best friend, Jeff. May you both Rest In Paradise.
Your buddy had it coming. He was a no-good Worthless piece of shit and your parents knew it. The only reason your parents didn't tell you was because if they pulled you off swallowing his meat stick you would have isolated into a hermit.
I'm still reeling from this news, can't believe he's no longer with us. He was so special toe and made me smile and laugh on my toughest days. My favourite actor and I love him even more for his warmth, compassion and kindness, he truly wanted to help people. God bless you, Matthew and thank you for being my comfort and joy on days when I felt like giving up. I will always love you and will forever miss you xxx
I spoke to my mother earlier today. She told me my dad in his 80's is having a hard time with his passing. When id go over to stay Dad and I would binge watch a few episodes and laugh. Man, along with Elvis, Thurmon Munson of the NY Yankees and Prince I don't think I've ever felt such a loss. Rip in peace Matthew. I hope as your soul looks down on us, you see the affect/effect you have had in our lives.
Matthew was so much more than just a celebrity. I read his book and he went through so much. He was the most authentic person about his demons. He had a compassionate heart. Rip Matthew. We loved you.
Matthew was on borrowed time. He lived long enough to wrap up the Friends reunion, write a book on his addiction, struggles, challenges and raise awareness to help those in the same situation. There was closure, in an ironic way. RIP Mattman
And when you read the book, at some point he writes about the doctor telling him if he doesn't quit smoking he will not live to 60. But his body took a toll, it is a wonder he was still alive...
Borrowed time? According to the news, there are no illegal drugs at his house. Only God can save your time is borrowed I kind of get what you’re saying however, I think it’s years of abuse, may be the Covid shot , borrowed time seems like none of our friends could ever overtime pill addiction without dying young otherwise, why are you saying borrow time?
No more bad dreams. Rest in peace, my friend. Thank you for the years of smiles, and most especially the soulful insight you shared with the world. Your honesty helped (as it will continue to help) so many traveling the painful path of addiction.
How was he honest, he scammed Americans into believing he was sober, he was a drunk and a druggie who felt sorry for himself because life didn't go his way, stop blaming addiction which is just a crutch
We never truly know someone's struggle but Matthew decided to share his in his book. His pain was indescribable but I hope he can rest now. I'm speechless and so sad for his suffering when he brought so much laughter and light to other people. He reached true enlightenment and self-awareness here and I'm glad of that. He came full circle but I'm also dismayed that his story ended like this. He truly made it his mission to understand his disease and the affliction he was so tortured by.
Yes, I read his book and was shocked. He opened up and told us all his hurt. I wish he could have found something else to ease his pain except drugs and alcohol. But it’s always something destructive we grab to make us feel better…..but it doesn’t.😔
You didn't know him. He didn't care about you. He didn't share much of his wealth with anyone. He lived in opulence. He didn't take care of himself. He lacked self-discipline. He likely died through misadventure. His show wasn't particularly funny. You are assigning importance to the banal.
If you had millions of dollars that you didn't know what else to do with, you would have shared it quite by accident. There isn't a single celebrity with this much completely accidental success that doesn't at least establish a charity for tax consideration. When you look at his house, imagine all of the people that really could have been helped if he were benevolent and weren't squandering it on an estate that borders the Pacific Ocean. @@awishinandahopin7232
Of all celebrity's passing, this one hit me the hardest. I grew up watching Friends and became quite addicted to the show and all the cast members. May you rest in peace Mr. Matthew Perry....you will be fondly missed.
He was truly a lovable human being, whether it was on screen or off, he clearly cared for others, and wanted to help those get through addiction even when struggling himself, he wanted more for those people, he didn’t want them to suffer the way he had, RIP Matthew, you will be forever missed
He was, and always will be,my favourite friend. His comedic timing in the show was utter brilliance, timing that only a true actor of his calibre is able to master. Sleep well Matthew Perry, we all know in our hearts you'll STILL always be trying to make us laugh even though your in heaven. Goodbye Chandler. X
God was there for you.. You said it ---I don't care what anyone thinks of me for saying this... He did not die alone... God was there with him! You fought hard.. I have said this on other videos as I mourn this loss... REST... Just rest now.
Sir Matthew Perry-Matty-he did and always will help the world with his natural, God blessed, comedic skills on the show Friends. RIP with all the angels and saints and God - you will never be forgotten. Prayers for all who knew him personally, and I believe God will be blessing his soul for eternity, because he was a blessing to the world. 🙏😇😇🙏💔
I’m still in shock at his passing..I hope he new how more joy and laughter he brought to millions and millions of people..He was a kind icing man as all of his friends have expressed.. RIP Matthew..you were adored by those that love you and adored by millions of fans..You left an amazing legacy of a remarkable show that has a special place in all our hearts and touched so many generations and growing..Your open..honest and raw frankness in discussing your addiction struggle have touched all that admire you and those that have the struggle..
I love that Matthew wanted to be remembered as someone who wanted to help others. Love you Matthew. We will miss you. Rest in peace Chandler. Thanks for the memories, this death hit hard like Robin Williams, can't stop crying. Beautiful tribute!
Losing Matty still doesn't seem real. I'm devastated. This was a beautiful tribute to a wonderful friend. Keep them laughing in Heaven. Fly high. 🕊️🙏❤️
"Why is it that the original thinkers like River Phoenix and Heath Ledger die, but Keanu Reeves still walks among us?" -Mathew Perry Yeah, such a heart of gold
It’s so amazing that one silly TV show can save someone’s life…I am a survivor of child sexual abuse and wanted to end my life many times in a past. I was born in Japan and moved to America when I was 24 in order to run away from my abusive family. Because I couldn’t speak English, I was so alone and scared everyday. Friends didn’t only help me to learn English but also helped me to laugh at silly things in everyday life, which got me through difficulties. Despite all the struggles, Matthew managed to make that happen for me through the show. I am forever grateful for his work.
It's nice to see how the cast got along on and off set. I think it makes the show even better when there is that kind of synergy. R.I.P. Matt Perry, may you find peace now ✌️
This is one exceptional tribute to Matthew Perry. I watched Friends from 9/22/1994 to 5/6/2004. I then watched it during the pandemic... all 10 seasons. I watched the Friends Reunion on HBO on 5/27/2021. I'm now watching the Friends show again... all 10 seasons. I will miss Matthew forever and always 💔
I've Prayed for Matthew. And I will be Praying for his family and his friends. I just knew he was a kind soul. It takes a special person to leave such a mark on so many hearts and hearts that he never knew and Matthew Perry was that kind of a person. 🙏❤
I was always rooting for him from Growing Pains to Odd Couple, I watched his career on screen and was encouraged by how he kept going. His book is going to help people. It's amazing. What a life. What odds he overcame. What a legacy. And what a reminder of how our days are numbered.💔
R.I.P. Matthew, a wonderful actor, a wonderful character, a wonderful human being! You are loved! Thank you for playing Chandler and thank you for being many people's friend in real life!
Matthew will be sadly missed, he has managed to make me smile for many years, and once I manage to stop crying he will once again make me smile when I re-watch him. he was such a sweet and caring man RIP Mathew Perry
I hope he knows that him being Chandler helped so many people get through tough times in their lives, myself included. He brought so much laughter and comfort to a struggling 10-year-old me as well as many others. Rest in peace, Matthew. I hope you’re finally happy.
He was my friend when I felt absolutely lonely. Growing up was hard, but he made it easy and I never felt alone when watching friends. Well done. “Can it BE any more painful than this “ .
This is still so heartbreaking. Matthew was always my fav character. His comic timing was everything. He made me laugh so much. I'll never be able to watch Friends again without sadness. Thank you for ALL the laughs Matt.
Still so saddened by his passing, never has the death of a stranger hit me so hard. Truth be told, he wasn't a stranger at all. He was a very good friend. Thank you Matthew for everything you've done for us all. 💔
I wish he could of had children. He would have been a great father. Marvelous funny man, handsome, you just know he was sweet. Miss you….be at peace now.
Such a heartfelt tribute to a fantastic person who had suffered through his own darkness and came out stronger. May his legacy live on forever. RIP, Matthew. We will see you on the other side. #MuchLove
I just shed a tear for a person I have never met in my life. I don't think he knew how loved he was. Thank you for making your character so legendary,and for all the help you gave to those in need. And I can only hope you can rest in heaven. My prayers go to his familly and everyone who knew him.
I cried when Robbin Williams passed on and I cry for Matthew Perry too. He was my favourite character in FRIENDS. His sense of humour matched mine. Its so sad he struggled so much. He will be deeply missed.
This is not our home. We’re all just passing through. And we all have our own personal demons to fight in this journey. Rest easy, Matt. He’s got you now. Rest in His loving, merciful hands.
This is hard. I never thought that this would happen so soon. I bought all ten seasons of Friends, but watching it will never be the same. We love you Matt. Send Robin our love.
Friends was the one series that my Mom and I could agree upon, and we watched it together from beginning to end. Mom would laugh herself into tears at Matthew's dry delivery of his iconic one-liners. When she passed im 2012, we played the Friends theme song at her funeral. I can't help thinking that she has now met and welcomed Matthew into the Great Hereafter. And it all makes my heart happy and sad at the same time. Rest in Peace, Friend. I'll see you when I get there. ❤
I sat here watching this and tears running down my face. I loved his character in Friends but I will always remember his struggle with addition and his wanting to help others. What a beautiful person inside and out. I will miss you Matthew Perry.
RIP Matthew. He was loved and I hope he knew that. The producers of Friends should be credited greatly. That show has positively impacted many lives, globally. I didn't have a favourite friend on the show. I love them all. They were all incredibly gifted.
I am sure ...He is in paradise living in peace and not having to struggle everyday in this life....He had the kindest heart...It wasnt fair what he had to endure his whole life😢
I can’t remember such a massive worldwide grief… and for a reason. He was the soul of “Friends”. And he will always be the friend all of us need. And Chanandler Bong will always be here, just a step away from us.
I normally don't follow celebrity news and ET isn't a show that I typically watch apart from glimpses here and there, but you bet I sat and watched this entire episode. What a simply beautiful tribute. I'm glad they dedicated the entire episode to him instead of a brief segment. Rest easy Matthew. You will be deeply, DEEPLY missed. 😓💔🕯️
No one ever fought addiction harder than Matthew Perry not only for himself but for so many others. The drugs damaged his body and shortened his life but his honesty and his public struggle helped so many other people and that is his legacy. Respect.
RIP Matthew, Friends would never be the same without Chandler's wit and humor. Thanks for defining the timeless nostalgia of our lives Mr Perry, rest in peace and rest in power!!
This loss, of a human I have never met, has hit me so hard that I’m without words to even begin to describe. He was a perfectly imperfect person, he was loved, he was cherished, I just hope he knows how many loved and respected him. The tribute will have to wait for another day so I will save it for another time.
When he says he wants to be remembered for helping people, not for his role as Chandler, I hope he knew that Friends did help people. It brought families together, it gave them something to look forward to, it made friends out of strangers. His performance as Chandler helped me. For many depressed people he was what would make a smile appear.
Very well said 👏
Amen!

FRIENDS played a part in my life, forever it will be.
His passing on hits hard,
We feel the pain ...
You could tell he was a sweetheart. Like Robin Williams. He didn’t want anyone to feel how he felt. Thank you Matthew. Thank you.

Да, это лучший сериал. И роль Метью - лучшая. Его Чендлер - чудо. Так больно от его ухода! Очень больно!
The one where it really is the end of an era....RIP and thank you, Matthew.
I have not been one for crying over celebrity deaths, but I was full on ugly crying over his death. Thank you Matthew, for the laughs, the one liners, and making the world feel like you were their friend.
I’ve never cried over the loss of a celebrity, but this time I did. I felt like I’ve lost a family member😢
Same! ❤
Me too 😢😢😢😢
The only other one I cried for, was John Candy......a long, long time ago.
Me too 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢.
He's the bestest of all I cried for two days straight but after seeing this I realised that he did everything he could to survive. He was such a generous and a kind human being and now he can rest peacefully 🙏
@@davebryant8050I'm s9 confused. He never stopped? I didn't even know he had this life style until a day ago 😮😢 he will be missed but after reading all his surgeries and stuff I thought that was w 3ake up call 😮😢 I'm sad he's gone. Look like he suffered ALOT. I'm curious why he was depressed ?? 😢 I hope he's flying up in heaven and let Jesus take care of him. Its a shame he's gone.
@@davebryant8050you probably do not know what it is like be an addict to drugs and alcohol right? Don’t even go there…it is a real disease, worst than Cancer, HIV, or Covid…it is a silent killer…I have been diagnosed with PTSD, Depression and Alcoholic for 30 years…After I got back from Afghanistan…I lost few friends there in Combat…it was really suck…I just recently get recovery and over 19 months sober…I am going back to school for Electrical Engineering…I have to leave all my family, my old friend and my old town…to start a new life again…it is not easy for anyone who has this disease…that’s why you see so many homeless on streets…be grateful what you have and others don’t have…help others if you can…even give a little…God bless you…Good luck…
Oh yes rip in peace my dear n no more pain just happiness where u r now
You really need to get a life. He was a TV actor on a show that was mindless entertainment. You miss laugh tracks.
He's dead. The dead don't fly with Harry Potter, King Arthur, or Daffy Duck. @@freedom4063
A perfect tribute!
He deserved all the love he received and will keep recieving.
Gone too soon
This was sooo BEAUTIFUL!! I have always been a big fan of 'Friends' but I have been a BIGGER FAN of Matthew Perry. I just wanted him to KEEP FIGHTING and KEEP WINNING against his battles. I cannot stop crying...he's at peace now...REST EASY MATTHEW PERRY...you have helped and encouraged more people than you will ever know...
What a great tribute. Rest in a peace Mathew Perry. I love your saying “the one thing I did right was never give up”, it’s mine now too ❤
This is so sad. Makes me miss my best buddy, who I lost a few years ago. He was more like a brother. I hope Matthew Perry is up there making everyone laugh and is feeling so healthy. He seemed like a real, genuine, true friend, like my best friend, Jeff. May you both Rest In Paradise.
Up where? Oh there.
Ameen
He helped loads. & hopefully is having a blast now !! Thank You Matt !! ❤🙏🙏🙏
Your buddy had it coming. He was a no-good
Worthless piece of shit and your parents knew it. The only reason your parents didn't tell you was because if they pulled you off swallowing his meat stick you would have isolated into a hermit.
Remembering who?
I cannot believe we lost him😢
💔
Me either. It feels weird and surreal. What a wonderful man and a fighter.
. I'm so mad he didn't quit drugs alcohol?😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢I'm shocked he gone. I don't believe this yet.
Me neither 😞
@freedom- He did stop using many, many times. But ge issue is to "stay stopped". Addiction is a terrible, horrible, unforgiving disease!!
I'm still reeling from this news, can't believe he's no longer with us. He was so special toe and made me smile and laugh on my toughest days. My favourite actor and I love him even more for his warmth, compassion and kindness, he truly wanted to help people. God bless you, Matthew and thank you for being my comfort and joy on days when I felt like giving up. I will always love you and will forever miss you xxx
How are you surprised, he was a drunk and a druggie because he felt sorry for himself because life was unfair to him
I spoke to my mother earlier today. She told me my dad in his 80's is having a hard time with his passing. When id go over to stay Dad and I would binge watch a few episodes and laugh. Man, along with Elvis, Thurmon Munson of the NY Yankees and Prince I don't think I've ever felt such a loss. Rip in peace Matthew. I hope as your soul looks down on us, you see the affect/effect you have had in our lives.
I have never been sad for an actor until now. He wasn't only an actor from the other side of the world but a true friend.
Matthew was so much more than just a celebrity. I read his book and he went through so much. He was the most authentic person about his demons. He had a compassionate heart. Rip Matthew. We loved you.
Matthew was on borrowed time. He lived long enough to wrap up the Friends reunion, write a book on his addiction, struggles, challenges and raise awareness to help those in the same situation. There was closure, in an ironic way. RIP Mattman
And when you read the book, at some point he writes about the doctor telling him if he doesn't quit smoking he will not live to 60. But his body took a toll, it is a wonder he was still alive...
Borrowed time? According to the news, there are no illegal drugs at his house. Only God can save your time is borrowed I kind of get what you’re saying however, I think it’s years of abuse, may be the Covid shot , borrowed time seems like none of our friends could ever overtime pill addiction without dying young otherwise, why are you saying borrow time?
This is true ...he says in his book he should've died 5 years ago ...so he got 5 extra years to say what he wanted to say in his book etc
No more bad dreams. Rest in peace, my friend. Thank you for the years of smiles, and most especially the soulful insight you shared with the world. Your honesty helped (as it will continue to help) so many traveling the painful path of addiction.
How was he honest, he scammed Americans into believing he was sober, he was a drunk and a druggie who felt sorry for himself because life didn't go his way, stop blaming addiction which is just a crutch
If Matthew Perry’s Family read these posts I am so sorry for your loss. Loved watching him in friends.
We never truly know someone's struggle but Matthew decided to share his in his book. His pain was indescribable but I hope he can rest now. I'm speechless and so sad for his suffering when he brought so much laughter and light to other people. He reached true enlightenment and self-awareness here and I'm glad of that. He came full circle but I'm also dismayed that his story ended like this. He truly made it his mission to understand his disease and the affliction he was so tortured by.
Yes, I read his book and was shocked. He opened up and told us all his
hurt. I wish he could have found something else to ease his pain except drugs and alcohol. But it’s always something destructive we grab to make us feel better…..but it doesn’t.😔
He tried to help people who were also suffering and that was commendable.🥰
You didn't know him. He didn't care about you. He didn't share much of his wealth with anyone.
He lived in opulence. He didn't take care of himself. He lacked self-discipline.
He likely died through misadventure. His show wasn't particularly funny. You are assigning importance to the banal.
You could have read something worth reading. But you read Mathew Perry's book. How much did it cost? @@awishinandahopin7232
If you had millions of dollars that you didn't know what else to do with, you would have shared it quite by accident.
There isn't a single celebrity with this much completely accidental success that doesn't at least establish a charity for tax consideration.
When you look at his house, imagine all of the people that really could have been helped if he were benevolent and weren't squandering it on an estate that borders the Pacific Ocean.
@@awishinandahopin7232
Of all celebrity's passing, this one hit me the hardest. I grew up watching Friends and became quite addicted to the show and all the cast members. May you rest in peace Mr. Matthew Perry....you will be fondly missed.
He was truly a lovable human being, whether it was on screen or off, he clearly cared for others, and wanted to help those get through addiction even when struggling himself, he wanted more for those people, he didn’t want them to suffer the way he had, RIP Matthew, you will be forever missed
Hey, how are you doing I am sorry for writing on your profile,I was looking at some videos on RUclips then I came across your page
He was, and always will be,my favourite friend. His comedic timing in the show was utter brilliance, timing that only a true actor of his calibre is able to master. Sleep well Matthew Perry, we all know in our hearts you'll STILL always be trying to make us laugh even though your in heaven. Goodbye Chandler. X
I’m watching Friends all over again 😢 brought me back to high school, he will be dearly missed ❤
God was there for you.. You said it ---I don't care what anyone thinks of me for saying this... He did not die alone... God was there with him! You fought hard.. I have said this on other videos as I mourn this loss... REST... Just rest now.
Sir Matthew Perry-Matty-he did and always will help the world with his natural, God blessed, comedic skills on the show Friends. RIP with all the angels and saints and God - you will never be forgotten. Prayers for all who knew him personally, and I believe God will be blessing his soul for eternity, because he was a blessing to the world. 🙏😇😇🙏💔
I’m still in shock at his passing..I hope he new how more joy and laughter he brought to millions and millions of people..He was a kind icing man as all of his friends have expressed..
RIP Matthew..you were adored by those that love you and adored by millions of fans..You left an amazing legacy of a remarkable show that has a special place in all our hearts and touched so many generations and growing..Your open..honest and raw frankness in discussing your addiction struggle have touched all that admire you and those that have the struggle..
I love that Matthew wanted to be remembered as someone who wanted to help others. Love you Matthew. We will miss you. Rest in peace Chandler. Thanks for the memories, this death hit hard like Robin Williams, can't stop crying. Beautiful tribute!
Losing Matty still doesn't seem real. I'm devastated. This was a beautiful tribute to a wonderful friend. Keep them laughing in Heaven. Fly high. 🕊️🙏❤️
He was such a sweet guy with the heart of gold. He will be really missed by people all over the world.
May he rest in peace.Amen
"Why is it that the original thinkers like River Phoenix and Heath Ledger die, but Keanu Reeves still walks among us?" -Mathew Perry
Yeah, such a heart of gold
Why would anyone in the world miss him? I don't think many in the world even knew him, nor are they idol worshipper
@@jangles7906 That was crappy, but at least he apologized. He added that he's a fan of Keanu and it was a random name and he should have used his own,
It’s so amazing that one silly TV show can save someone’s life…I am a survivor of child sexual abuse and wanted to end my life many times in a past. I was born in Japan and moved to America when I was 24 in order to run away from my abusive family. Because I couldn’t speak English, I was so alone and scared everyday. Friends didn’t only help me to learn English but also helped me to laugh at silly things in everyday life, which got me through difficulties. Despite all the struggles, Matthew managed to make that happen for me through the show. I am forever grateful for his work.
It's nice to see how the cast got along on and off set. I think it makes the show even better when there is that kind of synergy.
R.I.P. Matt Perry, may you find peace now ✌️
This is one exceptional tribute to Matthew Perry. I watched Friends from 9/22/1994 to 5/6/2004. I then watched it during the pandemic... all 10 seasons. I watched the Friends Reunion on HBO on 5/27/2021. I'm now watching the Friends show again... all 10 seasons. I will miss Matthew forever and always 💔
Beautifully done. RIP Matthew ❤
I grew up with 'Friends'. And to learn of his addiction as an adult was heartbreaking enough. This is just devastating. RIP Matthew Perry.
This is fkn heartbreaking. I watched these guys so much that I feel like I lost someone I personally knew. Such a gut punch.
I've Prayed for Matthew. And I will be Praying for his family and his friends. I just knew he was a kind soul. It takes a special person to leave such a mark on so many hearts and hearts that he never knew and Matthew Perry was that kind of a person. 🙏❤
How did that work out? You have quite an imagination to describe him personally likely never having met him.
I pray for many people who share their personal story/struggles publicly. I will pray for you too.
Good night. @@kurtpena5462
I was always rooting for him from Growing Pains to Odd Couple, I watched his career on screen and was encouraged by how he kept going. His book is going to help people. It's amazing. What a life. What odds he overcame. What a legacy. And what a reminder of how our days are numbered.💔
R.I.P. Matthew, a wonderful actor, a wonderful character, a wonderful human being!
You are loved! Thank you for playing Chandler and thank you for being many people's friend in real life!
We should all binge-watch Friends. Through laughter, Matthew will continue to help people.
Could this man BE anymore missed 😢
Best tribute I've seen. Thank you. Rest easy Chandler Bing you were truly one of a kind😢❤
Matthew will be sadly missed, he has managed to make me smile for many years, and once I manage to stop crying he will once again make me smile when I re-watch him. he was such a sweet and caring man RIP Mathew Perry
Every time you think about Matthews passing it's like you're hearing it for the first time it's such a shock.
I believe in him helping others throughout his life, he achieved everything he hoped would be! In love..🙏❤ legacy remembered 🙌
I hope he knows that him being Chandler helped so many people get through tough times in their lives, myself included. He brought so much laughter and comfort to a struggling 10-year-old me as well as many others. Rest in peace, Matthew. I hope you’re finally happy.
Happy? How can he be happy when you die without Jesus Christ? Do you know where is he right now?
@@caesaraltamiranor.7789 Do you?
Man, I'll miss him. He was one in a billion ❤
He was my friend when I felt absolutely lonely. Growing up was hard, but he made it easy and I never felt alone when watching friends. Well done. “Can it BE any more painful than this “ .
Such a sad sad tragedy.....He will be so greatly missed. Very hard to believe he's gone. RIP Matthew.
You have soo many people that Love you and will miss you soo much you were like a family member ❤ watching you grow up on Friends .😢😢😢😢
This is still so heartbreaking. Matthew was always my fav character. His comic timing was everything. He made me laugh so much. I'll never be able to watch Friends again without sadness. Thank you for ALL the laughs Matt.
Yeah same ❤❤
Still so saddened by his passing, never has the death of a stranger hit me so hard. Truth be told, he wasn't a stranger at all. He was a very good friend. Thank you Matthew for everything you've done for us all. 💔
I wish he could of had children. He would have been a great father. Marvelous funny man, handsome, you just know he was sweet. Miss you….be at peace now.
Such a heartfelt tribute to a fantastic person who had suffered through his own darkness and came out stronger. May his legacy live on forever. RIP, Matthew. We will see you on the other side. #MuchLove
I just shed a tear for a person I have never met in my life. I don't think he knew how loved he was. Thank you for making your character so legendary,and for all the help you gave to those in need. And I can only hope you can rest in heaven. My prayers go to his familly and everyone who knew him.
He was such a massive light to this world 😢. He will be dearly missed by many.
No, he wasn't that at all.
@@kurtpena5462You have not one nice thing to say. How about knock it off or is this the only way you can get attention.
This is one of the most ridiculous things I have read.
This made me cry 😭 Lord knows I loved that man like I was related to him. So heartbroken for his family and his other fans
Deep down he was hurting and longing for something he couldn't have but remained hopeful. What a guy!
I cried when Robbin Williams passed on and I cry for Matthew Perry too. He was my favourite character in FRIENDS. His sense of humour matched mine. Its so sad he struggled so much. He will be deeply missed.
This is not our home. We’re all just passing through. And we all have our own personal demons to fight in this journey. Rest easy, Matt. He’s got you now. Rest in His loving, merciful hands.
Such a lovely tribute to a kind loving man....he will be truly missed by his family, friends and all his fans.....😢
This is hard. I never thought that this would happen so soon. I bought all ten seasons of Friends, but watching it will never be the same. We love you Matt. Send Robin our love.
Friends was the one series that my Mom and I could agree upon, and we watched it together from beginning to end. Mom would laugh herself into tears at Matthew's dry delivery of his iconic one-liners. When she passed im 2012, we played the Friends theme song at her funeral. I can't help thinking that she has now met and welcomed Matthew into the Great Hereafter. And it all makes my heart happy and sad at the same time.
Rest in Peace, Friend. I'll see you when I get there. ❤
What a moving and fitting tribute. Still in shock at his passing. Rest in peace x
I sat here watching this and tears running down my face. I loved his character in Friends but I will always remember his struggle with addition and his wanting to help others. What a beautiful person inside and out. I will miss you Matthew Perry.
Hey, how are you doing I am sorry for writing on your profile,I was looking at some videos on RUclips then I came across your page
The best character on Friends…
May you rest in peace Chandler Bing ❤️
Matthew was a very gifted actor.
He will be missed very much. Love and Prayers from a fellow Canadian 🇨🇦❤️🇺🇸🙏🕊
RIP Matthew. He was loved and I hope he knew that.
The producers of Friends should be credited greatly. That show has positively impacted many lives, globally.
I didn't have a favourite friend on the show. I love them all. They were all incredibly gifted.
Matthew was a man with a pure heart. Dude you will be missed ❤
I have been sober for 5 years now! and I know how hard it is to struggle! May He rest in peace!
To his family and dear friends.. my heart breaks with yours. Thank you for sharing him with us all these decades ❤
Rest in peace Matty 🕊️. Your legacy lives on forever in your art. Thank you for your gift. Much love from South Africa ❤
It’s so sad. Friends was such a big part of everyone’s life back in simpler times. I think people including myself feel like we’ve all lost a friend.
May he RIP. TY for sharing this. I remember watching him on "Friends" & "The Odd Couple" reboot. He was great on both. God Bless You & stay safe.
I am sure ...He is in paradise living in peace and not having to struggle everyday in this life....He had the kindest heart...It wasnt fair what he had to endure his whole life😢
I can’t remember such a massive worldwide grief… and for a reason. He was the soul of “Friends”. And he will always be the friend all of us need. And Chanandler Bong will always be here, just a step away from us.
Sometimes those that make us laugh the most are those that are suffering inside. I hope you're at peace Matthew ❤
yes just like Robin Williams
Matthew Perry touched a lot of lives and he'll be forever missed. Even though he's gone physically gone his memory will live in our hearts forever
This was very tastefully done. ❤ Great Tribute ET
I normally don't follow celebrity news and ET isn't a show that I typically watch apart from glimpses here and there, but you bet I sat and watched this entire episode. What a simply beautiful tribute. I'm glad they dedicated the entire episode to him instead of a brief segment.
Rest easy Matthew. You will be deeply, DEEPLY missed. 😓💔🕯️
No one ever fought addiction harder than Matthew Perry not only for himself but for so many others. The drugs damaged his body and shortened his life but his honesty and his public struggle helped so many other people and that is his legacy. Respect.
Wonderful words💎🙏... love from Greece my friend!!🗺️💞
@@ΕυαγγελιαΓιαννακοπουλου-ε6χ
RIP Matthew, Friends would never be the same without Chandler's wit and humor. Thanks for defining the timeless nostalgia of our lives Mr Perry, rest in peace and rest in power!!
Beautifully made, ET. This was one of the best tributes to him.
This loss, of a human I have never met, has hit me so hard that I’m without words to even begin to describe. He was a perfectly imperfect person, he was loved, he was cherished, I just hope he knows how many loved and respected him. The tribute will have to wait for another day so I will save it for another time.
Lovely tribute to Mathew, grew up watching friends, very sad, another legend gone too soon, RIP Mathew ❤❤
