Joey: Season 1
The still-single Friend strikes out on his own as Emmy nominee Matt LeBlanc reprises his Friends role as charming Joey Tribbiani in this spin-off that continues the beloved Friends tradition. Joey leaves New York for Hollywood in order to take his acting career to the next level. He also says goodbye to a time when his friends were his family and welcomes the chance to turn his family into his friends. After reuniting with his high-strung sister Gina (Drea de Matteo, The Sopranos), Joey moves in with Michael (Paulo Costanzo, Road Trip), his 20-year-old genius nephew, who unbelievably is literally a rocket scientist. However, what Joey lacks in book smarts he makes up for with people smarts - making him the best new friend his nephew could ask for.

joey was a surprising treat. unfortunately i think the only reason it got cut was because the started too soon after friends. I was unfortunately one of those FRIENDS-fans who under appreciated Joey so much. After having watched all the FRIENDS episodes and loved each and everyone. as an apology i would like to say that i sorely underestimated how good the writing and the acting of this series. any friends-fans who under appreciated this series as i did should give it another chance as it is funny and well written. sure to recommend to friends.Joey:season 1 - Pappy
Matt does a great job carrying this short lived series as the Joey from "friends". I liked it a great deal because it's funny and smart.
In fact when it was on I watched it and taped it & very glad it came out on DVD, so much so I'm renting it too. Studio should have continued with the series. Would have helped if they had some guest apperance by cast from friends...and more continuity when Joey moved to LA. They were insaperable on friends, but you don't see Joey having any calls to or from Chandler, Ross, Rachel, Phoebe or Monica. Some tie in would have been better and more believable
Too bad it was cancelled...Funny - ploox
This show had me lauging from the minute I watched it. Allthough all the friends are gone we are left with a great one Joey played by Matt Leblanc. Unfortuneatlly this show got cancelled off the air I would've liked to see more of it. I liked the show soooo much I decided to buy it. Friends fans should be proud of this show because it is great and hilarious. Thank You fo reading my review.
