Matt’s Back – Showtime Has Him

After taking several years off to lick his wounds from the failure of his last series, former “Friends” star Matt LeBlanc is returning to TV.

Showtime has announced that the actor will star in a “comedy series about a British couple whose hit UK show is turned into a dumbed-down American sit-com” starring LeBlanc as himself. Well, we know he has the “dumbed-down part” down pat already. Entitled “Episodes,” the show will debut on Showtime and BBC Two in 2010.

While this doesn’t sound like a guaranteed winner, it’s gotta be better than “Joey.”
