Joey

Here's some more from Mark Lawson, this time on the coming Friends spin-off Joey.

Personally I always thought that the perfect spin-off from Friends would have been Chandler and Joey. I think you need one to play off the other. However Joey's character held Friends together for about the last 3 seasons since they split him and Chandler up by making Chandler fall in love with Monica.

To me Joey sounds like it's picking up where Friends left off. In that they'll be a few laughs, but you'll only really be watching it out of some sort of loyalty to the character.
