Matthew Perry's decision of not joining a 'Friends' reunion did not catch more attention than his recent TV appearance did.

The 45-year-old actor, who had battled drug and alcohol addiction in the past, was recently seen on the Graham Norton chat show. His face and slurred speech concerned his fans, News.com.au reports.

Expressing their shock at 'The Odd Couple' star's appearance, one of the Twitter user's wrote, "Something strange with Matthew's face and the way he's talking."

Another user, Fay Capstick, wrote, "Is it me or does Matthew Perry look/sound like he's suffered a stroke?."

Perry, who will be in London for his west end play 'The End of Longing', will not be joining his former cast mates Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Matt LeBlanc, David Schwimmer and Courteney Cox for 'Friends' reunion.
