In a new interview published in Deadline, FRIENDS co-creator Marta Kauffman has some bad news for fans of the series who are hoping that the beloved characters will one day reunite.

Asked if her friends still nag her about the possibility of getting the gang to reunite for a possible reboot, Kauffman shares, "Yes. They nag me all the time about it and my answer is that Friends was a show about that time in your life when your friends are your family...Once you start having family of your own it changes, and the show was over."

She continues, "A show has a lifespan I believe, it has a lifespan like anything else, and there's no reason to continue doing it just because people miss the characters. Watch the old ones, there is no way we could win that. And there's no way it would be satisfying and it'll never happen. We'll never do it."
