After 10 years of living under the shadow of Rachel's hair, Joey (Matt LeBlanc) moves on with his life—while his friends move on with their movie careers—and heads to Hollywood to pursue a legitimate acting career. Upon arrival, Joey immediately reconnects with his hot older sister, Gina (The Sopranos' Drea de Matteo), a feisty "hairdresser to the stars" who hooks him up with an apartment, only to discover her 20-year-old son (Road Trip's Paulo Constanzo) wants to move in with his cool Uncle Joey. Now jobless and living with his nephew, Joey quickly learns that surviving on the West Coast isn't as easy as sipping latte from oversized mugs. The good news is that if you liked Friends, you'll enjoy the familiar jokes and tone of this spin-off series. The bad news? You just admitted to liking Friends!
