Tapping into the wildly popular escape room craze, 'Celebrity Escape Room' brings the drama of a real-life video game with comedy stars Ben Stiller, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow and Adam Scott. As the swashbuckling anchor, "Game Master" Jack Black guides them through the mind-bending games as they work together under intense pressure to beat the clock, unlocking a series of surprising puzzle rooms with only three clues in this uproarious and heart-pounding adventure. 

Seeing Courteney and Lisa in the house, fans couldn't be happier and thought the show was like a ‘Friends’ reunion they never knew they wanted. Moreover, Stiller's presence also reminded them of the beloved sitcom as he did a cameo in the original. "Guys... it's the #Friends reboot. #CelebrityEscapeRoom #RedNoseDay," one fan posted and another wrote, "Some things related to friends. I really hope there’s something with parks thrown in #CelebrityEscapeRoom." "4 minutes to the parks and 'Friends' crossover we never knew we needed #CelebrityEscapeRoom," one viewer wrote and another said, "It's like a #Friends reunion! @RedHourBen #CelebrityEscapeRoom #FallonAtHome."

And if the presence of the stars wasn't enough, fans couldn't help but think of the show after the props were introduced. After looking at the couch, Lisa and Courteney exclaimed, "Is that the ‘Friends’ couch?" Not just that, the ‘Friends’ frame brought more memories and oh, the bulldog head reminded fans of the popular turkey head scene.

"The friends frame #CelebrityEscapeRoom," one wrote. One fan asked, "Did anyone else think of the scene from Friends when Monica put the turkey on her head when she put the bulldog head on in," and another responded, "Do you think they did that on purpose?" One posted, "Watching #CelebrityEscapeRoom and LMFAO. Can’t help but imagine how awesome this would have been with all 6 of the cast of Friends." Another wrote, "Another Friends episode called The One Where She Is Trapped in a Janitor's Room."

Stiller and Jack Black serve as executive producers and participants in the one-hour show that has been designed to celebrate this year's Red Nose Day to raise funds for children in need.
