"Wendell & Vinnie" Stars Impersonate "Friends" with Lisa Kudrow in New promo -- EXCLUSIVE VIDEO

Lisa Kudrow wrapped the final episode of "Friends" about nine years ago, and she’s now making her first return to multi-camera, studio audience TV since then, with her episode of Nickelodeon’s "Wendell & Vinnie" next week.
Kudrow’s involvement in the show was an opportunity to work with her close friend showrunner Jay Kogen, who she’s known since junior high school. She plays Natasha, a rival memorabilia collector to Vinnie (Jerry Trainor).
“She used to be Vinnie’s boss. He apprenticed under Natasha. I think she’s a little bitter he’s gone off and done well without her,” Kudrow told EW.
During the episode, the show’s odd couple — goofball Vinnie and Wendell (Buddy Handleson), the very mature kid who came into Vinnie’s care after his parents’ unexpected death — learn a few lessons about lying.
The episode also guest stars Thomas Lennon (17 Again) and "Star Trek: The Next Generation" alum Brent Spiner, who plays himself when Vinnie and Natasha are battling over the prop eyes of Spiner’s TNG character, Data.
The Kudrow, Lennon, and Spiner episode will air on Nickelodeon Thursday, June 13 at 8:30 p.m. ET/PT.
