Mandatory Tweets: The Best ‘Friends’ Fans Reactions to Losing Gunther, Tribute to James Michael Tyler

Every sitcom has its side characters, but not every side character makes such an impact that they’re always remembered along with the all-star cast of the show. On Sunday morning, the world lost James Michael Tyler, better known to us all as Gunther from Friends, after a battle with prostate cancer.

Always there to deliver a one-liner or two, Gunther was a character everyone could relate to, the one in love with someone who was always just out of reach. He was always lurking around in the background when we would hang with our crew at the Central Perk but when he approached someone, you knew something was about to happen, especially if Ross was involved. We still ship a Gunther and Rachel ending. And somewhere in an alternate ‘What if…’ timeline maybe it went down that way.

While we mourn the loss of one of television’s greats, everyone took to Twitter to post their tributes to our favorite barista. But first, here are a few GIFs of some of our favorite Gunther moments.
