Matt LeBlanc May Have A Career Again
Filed under: TV News > Anglophilia
This actually sounds pretty promising!
Showtime and the BBC have teamed up to produce a new comedy created by Mad About You's Jeffrey Klarik and Friends' David Crane.
The premise of EPISODES is that a British couple with a hit show in the UK are commissioned by Hollywood producers to create a new dumbed-down version for an American audience starring Matt LeBlanc, who will be playing himself in the show!
LeBlanc says: "Jeffrey and David have a great idea — I love it. I am really excited to be working with Showtime and the BBC. And I am so glad I got the part, seeing someone else play Matt LeBlanc would have been devastating.”
The first six episodes are set to shoot this winter in London and Hollywood with the show premiering in 2010 on the Showtime network and on BBC Two.
We think this could be a hit!
What do U think?

What do U think? Nothing…
Why is there a moustache growing out of the top of his hairline?
Matt LeBlanc rocks and so does David Crane, this show will be awesome!
Joeeeyyy's back!!! Big score getting on Showtime. They get to cuss and get nakie and do the humpty hump! YES! Can't wait!
*crosses fingers*
I am a HUGE fan of friends. the sitcom, Joey, was kind of a let down. I'll definitely be tuning it for this! curious!!
i'd watch it! joeys hilariouus.
it actually sounds like it could be a good show.. it's a good like premise.
this does not sound like perez either
that's a great concept for a show in my opinion having seen numerous hilarious British shows get watered down for American audiences. Why do they do that?? Hopefully that won't happen to Skins. I don't think it will since it's on MTV
I'll be watching, I love Matt LeBlanc!!!
WTF is up with his hair?
It's good some good producers and a nice premise but Matt LeBlanc? Seriously? Playing himself? LAME.
Brilliant concept!
Strange hair
good for him..hes still hott
i hope it's a hit!
so they're making a sitcom about what happened to the show The Office??? sounds zero percent original unfortunately…
Whoa, what happened to his hair in that picture?
If you don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I'm sorry Matt, but may I politely ask just what in the flying fuckery is going on with that hairdo?
It looks like it was cut by a blind toddler using plastic kiddie scissors.
You have forever ruined my perfect fantasy vision of Joey!!! Damn you to hellll
I'm looking forward to this (boy is his hair bugging me)
Love him! Hope it works out for him!
You know it sounds like it just my fly.
Not to be rude, but I am offended at your comment that they needed to dumb down the show for American audiences.
Other than that, I am excited to if Mr. LeBlanc still has it.
I loved him in Friends, but never took the time to check out anything else he has been in.
Re: twisted79 – Maybe I mis-read the premise of the show. The show will be about someone making a show which stars Mr. LeBlanc?
lol sounds like a good show.
the less said about the upcoming american version of skins the better……
Matt LeBlanc is so totally awesome!!! In my opinion he was the BEST character in friends… i think hes hilarious and this show could be a real hit.
Dumed-down? Hey Perez, go fuck yourself
