Where Are They Now? Lisa Kudrow Edition

Lisa Kudrow gained popularity by playing the quirky, free-spirited Phoebe Buffay on Friends and then seemed to disappear from the spotlight, or did she?  Currently the talented Ms.Kudrow is co-starring in Bandslam with teen sensation Vanessa Hudgens, but what was she doing between Friends and Bandslam?

When Friends wrapped in 2004 Lisa Kudrow went on to do a movie called Happy Endings (yea I haven't heard of it either.)  She then starred in a few TV series that didn't make it, despite the sharp wit and underground popularity.  I actually watched her show she did on HBO called The Comeback.  I thought it was great!  It got good ratings and people were talking about it.  That's why I was so surprised when HBO announced it would not be picked up for a second season.

She did a few voice over guest spots like American Dad and Father of the Pride. It seemed as though Lisa could not catch a break.  She did some things here and there for a few years, but didn't really get any good roles until now.  She has been very busy this year with 4 films already under her belt and a web series in which she plays a therapist.  She was also in P.S. I Love you with Hillary Swank and Gerard Butler and Hotel for Dogs.

After a lull for a few years, its good to see her back in full force!  With all these great roles popping up, it looks like our Friends darling is finally getting the recognition she deserves! You can visit her IMDB page to see more details on the projects she has been working on.Lisa Kudrow
