Which actress played Janice Litman-Goralnik in Friends?

Maggie Wheeler played Janice Litman-Goralnik in Friends.

Janice is Chandler Bing’s recurring on-and-off girlfriend, famous for her nasal voice, dramatic entrances, and unmistakable laugh. Wheeler’s performance made Janice one of the sitcom’s best-known recurring characters even though she was not part of the six-person central cast.

Janice’s surname changes across the series as her relationships and marriages change. She is associated especially with the catchphrase “Oh. My. God.” and with Chandler’s repeated attempts to end their relationship.

Wheeler is sometimes confused with other recurring actresses from Friends. Jane Sibbett played Carol Willick, Ross’s former wife, while Lisa Kudrow played Phoebe Buffay. Christina Pickles played Ross and Monica’s mother, Judy Geller. Wheeler’s signature Friends role is Janice.
