One of our favorite Friends stars has landed a recurring role on the CBS drama The Good Wife, but the question is: Who is it?!

Let's test your classic Friends knowledge with some not-so-subtle hints: This character has the middle name Murial, truly hates Thanksgiving, and was once thought to have the occupation of a "transponster." 

And the answer is…

Matthew Perry!

That's right our favorite Friends Bing-a-ling will join the Sunday night drama as Mike, an oh-so charming Chicago lawyer in charge of an elite panel investigating a suspicious police shooting.

But when Alicia (Julianna Margulies) is assigned to the same panel, she begins to question whether or not Mike has the right leadership skills to be the chairman.

Perry will make his debut in The Good Wife on March 25 at 9 p.m on CBS
