Perry became very famous for playing the charismatic Chandler Bing on Friends. On screen, his character was loved by many due to his unwavering humor, which eased tensions in the difficult situations the series' characters faced.

Perry's ability to deliver comedic lines at unexpected moments was evident even in surreal situations, such as in the episode where his character offers to urinate on Monica's leg to ease the pain of a jellyfish sting, based on a popular myth.
Another memorable performance by Perry came when his character falls asleep at a work meeting and inadvertently accepts a transfer to Tulsa. Chandler's hilarious attempts to reverse the situation are a clear example of the comedy that Matthew Perry injected into his character.
One of Perry's memorable scenes in "Friends" is the episode in which, to avoid breaking up with his girlfriend Janice, Chandler invents that he must move to Yemen for work. This humorous episode culminates with Chandler buying a ticket to Yemen to convince Janice.
In several episodes of Friends, Chandler can be seen in action on the dance floor.
