Friends eventually proved that Mark (Steven Eckholdt) wasn’t the reason for Ross (David Schwimmer) and Rachel’s (Jennifer Aniston) breakup. The popular sitcom, which ran for ten seasons between 1994 and 2004, contributed one of pop culture’s most iconic on-again off-again relationships with Ross and Rachel. Although the pair met when they were both in high school, they didn’t get together permanently until the final episode of the show despite having briefly dated, even more briefly gotten married, and had a baby in the meantime.
