With such an amazing core cast, very few secondary characters stuck around for long. There were some truly memorable guest stars and recurring characters, but the one who successfully infiltrated the “core six” was Mike Hannigan. The character of Mike was everything the show needed to breathe just a bit of new life to a beloved show as it was winding down. Mike was funny, charming, and just quirky enough to be a perfect fit for Phoebe, but also stable enough to provide a mature and loving relationship to finally tie Phoebe down.

Friends fans are very possessive and protective of the amazing cast and characters, but they were more than happy to welcome Mike into the fold. Now the question remains, how well did you pay attention to Phoebe’s greatest love interest? If you consider yourself a major Friends fan, and think you know everything about EVERY character, it is time to test your knowledge on Mike Hannigan! Good luck!
