ARE YOU READY? Take a deep breath: A Friends reunion—a longtime rumor—is actually, for real happening(!!) on NBC this February, TVLine reports. While it's not a full on revival, Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, and Matthew Perry will appear together on a two-hour tribute special to director James Burrows. (Burrows has directed 1,000 TV episodes and 15 Friends episodes.)

According to the outlet, the TV special will be like Saturday Night Live's 40th anniversary special, and the Friends squad won't be the only cast there. Stars from other Burrow-directed series Taxi, Cheers, Frasier, Will & GraceThe Big Bang Theory, and Mike & Molly will appear, too.

No word, yet, on whether Gunther will be able to make it.

The episode will reportedly tape in L.A. later this month and air Sunday, February 21 at 9 p.m. Until then...
