The still-single
Friend strikes out on his own as Emmy nominee Matt LeBlanc reprises his
"Friends" role as charming Joey Tribbiani in this spinoff that continues the
beloved "Friends" tradition. LeBlanc is backed by the award-winning writers
and director who contributed to the unforgettable "Friends" phenomenon. 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. Ashley Scott ("Birds of Prey")
also stars as Joey's attractive neighbor. "Joey" is produced by Warner Bros.
Television. Kevin S. Bright ("Friends") returns as executive producer and
director; Shana Goldberg and Scott Silveri (both "Friends") also return as
executive producers and writers.
