Matt LeBlanc Is Not An Ass

Really, he's not. (image via celebrities.pl)

NBC's insidious sitcom Joey was an embarrassment -- for NBC, for the writers, for Matt LeBlanc, and most importantly of all for you and me. It stank tremendously but there are matters of money and what the Japanese like to call "face" involved. Apparently this is the reason why the show is in this bizarre stasis-limbo where everyone knows that it is essentially cancelled, but no one is actually out and out saying so.

But we cannot envision a situation in which Joey is picked up for another season. NBC doesn't have the necessary fumigation in place for that stinkbomb. This item from Popbitch:

"Last Friday was the final recording of Joey, NBC's disastrous Friends spin-off. Matt LeBlanc is not happy about it ending. There was a sign hanging on his dressing room door all night, saying 'NBC fucked up,' and at the wrap party Matt was seen going up to the executive responsible for re-commissioning the show asking, 'Why do you hate me?'"

Okay, we take it back. Matt LeBlanc truly is an ass.
