It’s another mini Friends reunion for BFFs Jen & Courteney Cox!

Looks like Jennifer Aniston, 41, will be moving to Cougar Town… that is, if producer Bill Lawrence gets his way! “Jennifer Aniston is going to be on the show next season, she doesn’t know it yet,” Bill said March 5 at the 25th Annual Paley Fest in Beverly Hills. “Courteney [Cox] promised me that as a birthday gift.”

Jen’s appearance on the show would mark the second time Courteney, 45, has landed her a much-hyped TV gig. She previously appeared as a rival magazine editor on an episode of Courteney’s short-lived FX series Dirt. And considering Lisa Kudrow, 46, has already guest starred on an episode of Cougar Town this season, it wouldn’t surprise us at all to see a few more Friends start popping up!

Along with Jen’s hopeful appearance, Bill also talked about upcoming guest spots from Nia Vardalos and another of Courteney’s friends, Sheryl Crow. Bill says Sheryl’s got some serious acting chops. “[She's] easily the nicest rock star out of all the rock stars I’ve ever met in my life,” he said. “And she could do this as her day job.”

Has Jen done anything notable since Friends? If so, I’m not aware of it, and I figure I represent the average joe. I remember her being a wonderful addition to the Friends cast, with consistent character development, a good sense of timing, and a pleasing disposition otherwise. It would be nice to see her acting again in another ‘permanent’ role.

    If Jennifer were to go on the show, it would only be as a cameo appearance (once or twice) it would definately not be anything permanent. And she has been in quite a few noteable movies since then. She is a movie star now, and will probable never go back to a permanent TV role.

Best career move since Friends, and Brad Pitt fiasco.
