Courteney Cox Returns to TV in 'Dirt'
43 minutes ago



When "Friends" left television, so did Courteney Cox, who played Monica Geller on the long-running series. But the actress is coming back in "Dirt," a drama pilot for the FX network, in which she will play tabloid editor Lucy Spiller.

Production on the pilot is scheduled to begin in March.

"We are absolutely thrilled that Courteney has chosen `Dirt' for her return to series television," Nick Grad, the network's vice president of original programming, said in a statement Tuesday.

Along with the show's director, Matthew Carnahan, Cox and her husband, David Arquette, are credited as executive producers.

...She was the inspiration to the running gag of the "Carlton Dance" on "The Fresh Prince of Bel Air." The Carlton Dance was a parody of her dance during the Bruce Springsteen music video "Dancing in the Dark."

Expecting her second child with husband, "David Arquette", in the fall of 2006.

KUDROW: 'FRIENDS REUNION HAMPERED BY MALE CAST MEMBER'



Former FRIENDS star LISA KUDROW has confirmed the hit TV series was all set for a reunion show, but one male cast member refused a multi-million dollar salary to make a comeback appearance. Rumours of a lucrative Friends reunion started after KATHLEEN TURNER, who played the transvestite father of MATTHEW PERRY's character CHANDLER BING, revealed she had been approached about making more episodes. While bosses at US TV network NBC furiously denied the claims, 42-year-old Kudrow, who starred as PHOEBE BUFFAY in the comedy, has now confirmed proposals for forthcoming shows. But she also reveals that one of either MATT LeBLANC, DAVID SCHWIMMER or Perry is hampering the proceedings. She says, "There is an opportunity for the rest of us to do a reunion show but one member has said no. "It's one of the guys. I'm gutted."

I found this on Contactmusic website - it's an interesting read. I wonder if it's Matt LeBlanc-he might still be ticked off about Joey.

I saw a poster that read:

"Friends Don't Let Friends Do Drugs".. and it had a picture of the cast of Friends.
