Even after more than 2 decades, Friends is home to millions of people. With the perfect combination of love, laughter, and heartbreaks, the sitcom is nothing but comforting its viewers. While the sitcom celebrated all key holidays, it unfortunately, had only one Halloween episode. Amid all the excitement surrounding the spookiest day of the year, fans found themselves unable to resist revisiting the unforgettable moment shared between Courteney Cox’s character, Monica Geller, and Lisa Kudrow’s character, Phoebe Buffay.

The 8th season’s episode 6, The One with the Halloween Party, featured the Halloween spirit in the show. In this, Phoebe dressed up as Supergirl while Monica donned the Catwoman costume. And fans rightly remembered how Supergirl and Catwoman interacted in the ’90s sitcom. Phoebe goes on to say “So we meet again Catwoman,” to which Monica joins in. However, Phoebe broke the supposed tension with her hilarious remark, “No, it’s me. Phoebe!” which still cracks up fans.
