New Showtime series set to premiere sometime this year.
As a huge Friends fan, I'm stoked.
Looks way better than Joey.

this could either be self-referential/meta awesomeness, or could just be embarrassingly bad.

I like most things Showtime does so this could be good, I'll definitely be checking it out.

Something to watch on my continuous wait for the return of Weeds

Haha. Him waiting for the interview was hilarious... If only I had showtime...

Showtime has decent shows most of the time, and this looked amusing. Will at least check out.

This looks good. But the whole concept was made fun of in one of the early seasons of Curb Your Enthusiasm. Not that that matters...just sayin'

Heard awhile ago from people that have seen it that it's great.

Didn't Lisa Kudrow have a show on Showtime, too?

Anyway, I hope it's better than Joey. God, so bad.

Really? Hmmm.... I was going to start watching when they aired, but might as well give it an early look

Just watched the first episode, since it's on BBC 2 over here. Wasn't particularly funny, but it was only the first episode. It has huge potential. Could really revive his career. I can see it having over 4 seasons to be completely honest. Great idea for a show aswell.

Thought the first episode was awesome.

I laughed so hard, I'm so glad this exists.

Is it just me or is the lead couple incredibly uppity and offputting? Really turned me off from the show to be honest, although I think it's cleverly written and performed otherwise.

I just think it's funny that Matt LeBlanc:

A) Name isn't spelled right in the topic
B) Has fallen so far the OP had to remind people he's Joey from "Friends."

That said, haven't seen the show. But interesting Courteney Cox, Matthew Perry and he all have their own shows.

it's because they are Brits

Was gonna say the same thing.


We are quite uppity and offputting especially when we havent had our tea and scones.


As for the show, enjoyed the first two episodes so far. Kinda want Matt to bust out the How You Doin' line though

In a promo, the line was used... but not by him. I'm sure it'll come up though

Great mix of British humor and American humor. If you can;t get into British shows I think this is a great place to start.

I love Tamsin Grey. She's spectacular. The weeks' ep with her and Merk's asst was charming.

This finale was really good. It's the type of show where I feel I could watch over and over again to pick up on the subtle nuances of humour and behaviour. I'm excited for next season.

I feel bad for people that can't enjoy British comedy.

Fucking fantastic show. Haven't watched the whole season yet, but I'm loving it so far.

The finale is the tip of the iceberg. I suppose it is a bit predictable after watching the second-to-last episode, however the characters are what keep me watching.

The actor that plays Merk is one of my favorite people on TV right now. paraphrased:

"Why do all our piliots suck? They make me wish I had cancer again, just so I could say 'You think this is bad, I have cancer again!'"

His dynamic with Carol is pretty funny too. Seven episodes was pretty perfect for the debut season, but I hope they get picked up again and their next season is a bit longer.

The finale was really disappointing. It was like they were afraid to commit to what should have been a really emotional scene. Tarnished the whole series with the slapstick fighting and Matt's cheap jokes in the final scene.

Wondering if this is actually worth watching.

I just watched the entire season. I love it! Granted, I'm much more a fan of the British side of it, and I think the network execs are hilarious. Matt LeBlanc is probably the weakest part of the show. But, even so, he's about 100x better than I thought he would be. So glad this got renewed.

Ahh I didn't know it had. This is the best news I've had all day.

oh, just on BBC, not Showtime. Lucky for me, the internet doesn't discriminate. Watching Ep1&2 right now
