10 Scrapped Friends Storylines That Would Have Changed The Show Forever
7. Kathy Leaves For An Acting Tour
The character of Kathy appeared in a number of Friends episodes in Season 4 as a love interest for both Chandler and Joey. She would go on to cause a rift between the two friends before being written out of the show later in the season.
In a special feature from the ‘Friends Season 10’ DVD, Paget Brewster, who played the role of Kathy, revealed an alternative story that would have written her off the show.
Instead of Kathy cheating on Chandler, she would have instead left to go on an acting tour around the country, forcing their relationship to be put on hold.
This would have been a flimsy excuse to halt the relationship and also would have left lingering issues between Chandler and Joey.
The storyline the producers decided to go with allowed the audience, as well as Joey and Chandler, to draw a line under this chapter and move forward to other things.
