Joey, from Friends. New TV show.. wanna take bets?
 

Joey from friends has a new spinoff show coming out. Anyone wanna take bets on how long it's gonna last?

With a character as popular as Joey they'll often skip just a single pilot episode, and actually create 4 episodes. And based on the ratings they'll order 8 more epidsodes to complete the season, or they'll scrap it all right then and there.

Who thinks it'll go the full season?
How long do you think it'll last? the 4 pilots? 1 full season? 2 seasons?

I think public humiliation bets are more satisfying than cold hard cash. (Since we all make shit loads anyway... right?)

Plus, I think we havn't seen the TeenGodFather in drag too much lately.

i hated friends and i hope this show flops on its face

friends sucks!!! :ak47:

i'd say 2 seasons at most, its not even being shown in the UK because Warner Brothers wanted so much for licensing

hard to say really..they might have some wicked writers so it cant help but be good.

i say it lasts max 1 season

kinda funny how when seinfeld ended all of them got their own shows and they all sucked

same things gona happen with this i bet :2 cents:

It will last at least a full season, I say it will pull 3 before the run out of cameo's and possible plots.
If he gets a love interest that results in hanky panky 2 seasons.
If it has "friends" visit during season 1, that will be final season.

It's disappointing I know. I'll try to get drunk and humiliate myself soon.:(

As for joey.. we won't see it here for another 3 years regardless of how well it does :/

They have so much invested in that ass clown, they'll let it run the whole season. That's gonna be about it though. No way it will be funny.

Don't say. Friends sucked major donkey balls and it got.. what 50 seasons?

At least 1 season...ICQ 34763846 if you want to bet :winkwink:

Depends on how long the publics attention span is really..

The preview makes it seem like it's still very much friends without the other friends.. Could go either way, fail huge and fast or fade over a longer period.

It wont last, After Sienfeld everyone of them tryed to get there own shows and they all suck dick. But Sienfeld the show kicked ass. Same with friends. Take the money and run Joey.

Friends was awesome, but only because they played all together, dunno if his solo-show will be as good as friends was.

no way it makes a season.

Here's a better bet... How long do you think it will take them to make a dick joke, most likely Joey referring to his own? I say it will happen in the pilot but no more than 1 episode into it:glugglug

I too fall into the "They weren't my Friends" category.
Everybody Loves Raymond, now there's a comedy:thumbsup

I don't even think it'll last a full season.

3 seasons

NBC is going to force this one down all of our throats whether it's popular or not.

Seinfeld is gone, now Friends is gone. They need a winner in a big way.

I've seen the pilot for it (it's floating around the net), and it's actually pretty funny. I think it will last at least a full season.

One season

god damn did i ever hate that that show (friends). i 'd think this one will go one season.

Friends was the best show i've ever seen in my hole life, was funny and original, with a lot fun in the content of the show.

Now, I really don't know if Joey will work, i think it's not the same without the rest of the cast of Friends, like someone said before, if it has "friends" visit during season 1, then thats it, just my :2 cents:

Sorry for my poor english

10, 50 seasons would be 50 years - now THAT would be hell

I believe that it will be more successful than the Michael Richards Show, Bob Patterson and Ellie Fenstermocker (or whatever the Julia L-D thing was called) combined, so we can expect it to last at least one season.

yeah, 1 season max, though I doubt it

I just dont see it lasting very long. 2 months maybe.

I didn't even realize, NBC (Nothing But Caucasians) had run out of hit shows. Wow, you're right they are gonna shove this... wait... what about Apprentice 2. Isn't that NBC?

I couldn't even tell you who he was on friends.

Really? Not even after I told you a guy named Joey was? Hmm.

I say it doesnt make the first season because they are pumping lots of money into advertising . Then it will be no more.

4 episodes..

Come on Red... give us another clue! :1orglaugh

hard to say...really depends on the writing. If it's as good as friends, I think it'll last awhile like Fraser. Otherwise it'll get cancelled pretty fast.

Well, I couldn't point out his character on the tv with the audio off. How's that? :Graucho

Frasier is more interesting than some metrosexual nancy boy who got to pretend he was friends with jennifer annistink on some lame canned tv show.

I still watch Cheers at least once a week.

LOL. :)

Cat and I were just talking about this last night. Did you ever see the Cheers episode where Woody was learning geography and having trouble remembering shit and so Coach told him to just sing a song and he could remember shit. Then he sang this... (sung to the tune of "when the saints go marching in")

Albania...
Albania...
Your borders on the sea of the Adriatic.

When he sang that I LAUGHED MY ASS OFF, I don't know why, but it was funny as hell. And to this day... to this day... I will ALWAYS remember that Albania's border is on the Adriatic sea. I may never need to know that, but I will always know WHY I know it.

it will run 1 full season and be shut down.

they have too much $$ invested the show as is. "Friends" just came to a close, so all the "Friends" fans and maniacs need something (like the "Joey" show), to feed off of till they are able to 'ween' themselves off of "Friends" all together, like a fuckin drug almost.

If you think otherwise, and would like to personally bet against me (and you have a paypal account ;) , hit me up!!! lets do this shit! :glugglug

icq: 266-081-806

it's hard to say now, but "Friends" were really good, let's just give it the show a chance:thumbsup

hmm sounds familiar but can't say I have seen that one lately...

Cheers is hours of fun. I need to get the dvds if they are out.

Have you seen the episode where Cliff and Norm come to LA and do Johnny Carson? It caught me off guard but there is a shot in there of them right out front of Circus Liquor. Norm walks out with a case of beer, and they pan up to that big clown sign. It was pretty funny.

We mentioned it to one of the guys that works there but he was like "Cheers? huh??" cause I guess he doesn't watch it.

Yep... And to nurse the ratings I expect at least half of Joey's old "friends" will make a trip out there to visit him.:glugglug

My buddy works in Burbank at the studio and told me the third episode Joey gets Nut Cancer and can't fuck ever again.

And that makes for good comedy how?

I only have one thing to say:

http://www.thespiannet.com/actors/L/leblanc_matt/e.jpg

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116165/

I live not too far from that place. Do you go in there a lot? I see Fletch XXX at the bank ALL the fuckin' time but when I call his name he ignores me.

duh ... I watched it ... ONCE

I never really watched Friends but being the sponge of useless information that I am I remember hearing recently that the station in the UK that ran Friends had so little hope in it that they passed on the right to show it and it is going to channel 5 which a few sheep can pick up.

hahaha nah that can't be him, unless he was with some chick and that would be me :)

which bank btw?

He knows which one. I told him about it and he said he was "helping someone move" bullshit. I know it was him, I think. I'm almost positive this guy might have been him. He looked just how fletch might look. It had to be him.

I was like, "Fletch"..."FLETCH!", "YO!! FFLLEEETTCCHH!!!!"

And he just kept walking, I guess he didn't want me to know it was him, but it was pretty obvious it was him.
