David Schwimmer is clearing the air about the rumored Friends reunion!

David Schwimmer has been hitting the promo trail hard in the UK to chat about his new comedy Intelligence.

When you're amongst the six actors to be a part of an iconic sitcom like Friends, there are several perks that follow. Fame and so much fortune, even after the show has ended (thank the royalties!) However, there's also the fact that being in such a series relegates you to that one iconic character.

In an ongoing series of fumbles with regard to the diversity (and other current criticisms) of Friends, David Schwimmer has now apologized to Living Single's Erika Alexander. On Twitter, the actor responded to her claim that he'd overlooked the fellow '90s sitcom, which featured a predominantly black cast, when discussing his own series' place in history.

Another Living Single star has hopped on Twitter to remind David Schwimmer of something important: they did it first. Kim Coles, who played Synclaire James-Jones on the hit 1990s sitcom, called the actor “naive” on Twitter for suggesting that an “all-black” or “all-Asian” reboot of Friends would make up for the show’s lack of diversity.

You can always count on Black Twitter to get their point across when it comes to making a statement, and Tuesday was no different as they went in and stuck up for “Living Single.”

The iconic NBC sitcom Friends was about six 20-somethings living in New York, following their love lives, friendships and careers. But its taken heat over the years for its lack of diversity, with an all-white lead cast and precious few people of color in secondary roles.

David Schwimmer has an idea for how to revive the still super-popular .

David Schwimmer no longer has any regrets when it comes to Friends. There was a point in time when the actor wanted to be known for more than his role as Ross Geller, the lovable but bumbling paleontologist he played for a decade on the hit NBC series, but now he is past that phase (cue another round of reunion buzz).
