Tonight, June 14th, TV Land will be there for you - with "Friends"! Monica, Chandler, Joey, Phoebe, Ross and Rachel come to TV Land, launching with week-long nightly marathons, every night at 7pm ET/PT to 6am ET/PT from Friday, June 14th to Tuesday, June 18th. Then, the show settles into its regular Wednesday night spot at 9pm ET/PT starting on June 19th, when it will lead into the LIVE season premiere of "Hot in Cleveland" at 10pm, followed by the season debuts of "The Exes" and "The Soul Man" at 10:30pm and 11pm.

The marathon will air some of the funniest and most memorable episodes, including the pilot, "The One With the Blackout," "The One With the Prom Video," "The One Where No One's Ready," "The One With the Football," "The One With the Embryos," "The One With Chandler in a Box" "The One With All the Thanksgivings" and many, many more. Amazing guest stars will pop up during this special programming event, such as Christina Applegate, Tom Selleck, Hugh Laurie, Giovanni Ribisi, Morgan Fairchild, Bruce Willis, Gary Oldman, Kathleen Turner, Noah Wyle and George Clooney.

Fans will be able to join in on the fun, live-tweeting along with @TVLand using the hashtag #FriendsOnTVLand, and special hashtags on-air relating to specific episodes. TV Land's Instagram (@laughmoreTV) will also be sharing photos for #ThrowbackThursdays of the cast of "Friends" before they were "Friends," among other posts on Tumblr, Pinterest, Facebook, and Buzzfeed.

"Friends" will also be part of the Summer of Sitcoms Marathons, a four-nights-per-week extravaganza every Thursday through Sunday at 10pm ET/PT beginning June 20th. TV Land has Doug and Carrie heading up Thursday on "King of Queens," a super "Friends" Friday, Ray and his crazy (but loveable) family on "Everybody Loves Raymond" on Saturday, and your favorite seniors on "The Golden Girls" on Sunday.

"Friends" is the hit NBC comedy that aired for 10 seasons from 1994-2004 and followed close friends Monica (Courteney Cox), Chandler (Matthew Perry), Joey (Matt LeBlanc), Phoebe (Lisa Kudrow), Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel (Jennifer Aniston) as they navigated their 20s and 30s in the most hilarious way possible. Through the ups and downs in love, work and everyday life, the group found the comedy in every absurd situation.
