Career
She began her comedic career as a member of The Groundlings, an improv and sketch comedy school in Los Angeles, at the behest of her brother's childhood friend, comedian Jon Lovitz. Cynthia Szigeti, her improv teacher at The Groundlings, has been praised for transforming her perception of acting, saying she was "the best thing that happened on so many fronts." Kudrow joined Conan O'Brien and Tim Hillman in the short-lived improv troupe Unexpected Company. She was also the first female member of the Transformers Comedy Troupe. She appeared in an episode of the NBC sitcom Cheers. Julia Sweeney was tried out for Saturday Night Live in 1990, but the show chose Julia Sweeney instead. Kathy Fleisher appeared in three episodes of Bob Newhart's season one (CBS, 1992–1993), a part of Newhart's previous series Newhart's recurring role. She appeared in at least two network-produced pilots (also known as Temporarily Yours) in 1989, playing Nicole; and CBS' Close Encounters (also known as Matchmaker) in 1990, playing a Valley girl prior to Friends.
At the taping of the pilot episode, Kudrow was portrayed as Roz Doyle in Frasier, but Peri Gilpin's role was re-cast. Kudrow said that "I knew it wasn't working" when rehearsals began. I could hear it all slipping away, and I was worried about it all, which made it worse." Ursula Buffay, the eccentric waitress on NBC's Mad About You, was her first on television appearance.
Kudrow re-created the role on the NBC sitcom Friends, in which Kudrow co-starred as massage therapist Phoebe Buffay, Ursula's twin sister. Kudrow was the first Friends cast member to receive an Emmy Award in 1998 for her role as Phoebe on Friends, NBC, 1994–2004). According to the Guinness Book of World Records, Kudrow and co-stars Jennifer Aniston and Courteney Cox made the most money-based TV actresses of all time, making $1 million per episode for the ninth and tenth seasons of Friends. Phoebe has since been named one of the best television characters of all time. Phoebe is considered Kudrow's breakout role, after Jennifer Aniston, who is credited with making her the show's second most popular cast member and spawning her film career.
