Friends tribute show reunion in memes and tweets

In the words of Janice, "Oh. My. God."

It looks like all six Friends stars will reunite as part of a special programme to honour one of the show's directors.

Matthew Perry, Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, and Lisa Kudrow are all set to appear as part of a tribute to James Burrows.

So with Friends no longer "on a break", fans have taken to twitter to celebrate (although not like Ross and Monica at that New Year's Eve party).

Here are some of the best memes and reactions on Twitter, using the hashtag FriendsReunion.

@MarcSnetiker is just hoping Jennifer Aniston is there.

@DrakeBell tweeted this after discovering the news.

Some fans are unhappy the reunion is only part of a tribute show - but Joey (sorry, Matt LeBlanc) can't wait to appear.

@Matt_LeBlanc tweeted: "Should be a good time!"
