"How you doin?" became Wendy Williams' signature greeting on The Wendy Williams Show, which aired from 2008 to 2022, where she used it to greet her studio audience before diving into celebrity hot topics. The phrase itself dates back to Joey Tribbiani on Friends, but Wendy's sassy, breathy delivery made it her own, and fans began ripping the line for reaction videos, greeting edits and flirty captions across YouTube and TikTok. This studio version keeps the recording clean and punchy, which is why it works so well as a quick opener.
