Starring Matt LeBlanc, “Joey” tells the story of Joey Tribbiani as he leaves New York for Hollywood in his final attempt to continue his acting career.
Although it seemed like a safe bet thanks to Matt LeBlanc’s charisma — and attracted 18.6 million viewers during the pilot’s broadcast — the series ended up being canceled halfway through its second season.
The eight episodes from the second season, however, were lost and had never been released on any official platform until now.
The official “Friends” YouTube channel has made all episodes of “Joey” available for free. However, the episodes appear to be available only to users in the United States.
While the series has not yet been released globally on the platform, fans of the character can watch the first season on Prime Video.

Matt LeBlanc explained why he believes the spin-off failed in an interview with Radio Times in 2015.
“The stories and jokes were OK, but the conflict and obstacles in the plots weren’t strong enough,” he said.
“In Friends, Joey was always ‘the glass is half full’. In Joey, he was ‘the glass is half empty’. And that was sad. It was the same showrunner as Friends, and I think we should have taken a year off,” he commented.
