Lisa Kudrow was fired from Frasier because she wasn’t a fit for Roz Doyle, opening the door for her to star in Friends.
When Friends debuted in the fall of 1994, its six lead performers were largely unknown. Headlining a popular sitcom, however, can do wonders for one's exposure, and it wasn't long before each member of Friends' main cast became a household name in entertainment. Among newcomers to the primetime big leagues was Lisa Kudrow as the series' quirky and aloof musician and massage therapist, Phoebe Buffay.

His seemingly endless list of credits includes work on Taxi, Cheers, Frasier, and Will and Grace, for which he directed the pilot episodes, as well as Friends, The Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men, and Mike and Molly.
