How can JOEY be improved??
I have had enough of the rains.A new day without rain has arrived. A post about something which I really like.
JOEY will start it's second season from this September.
After watching season 1 of JOEY there is no way a FRIENDS fan will be a satisfied person. First of all, the characters in JOEY are not something that you will adore. JOEY suffers from being too monotonous. Accepting Joey's stupidity stops after a point.It is alright if the storyline involves the side characters more once in a while.
Another thing I feel JOEY lacks is a guy friend for Joey. I mean someone who he hangs out with. The Howie guy is really pathetic.They should have a proper actor fillling that void.
Another touchy question, "Should they have FRIENDS come on the Show?" .Well as far as I see it is not the right time for FRIENDS to arrive on Joey. The show needs to get it's viewer base in place first. Another viewpoint is that if the FRIENDS don't make an appearance quickly there may be no viewer base left, seeing how Joey's ratings are going down. Rumours are flying thick and fast about the FRIENDS appearing.
Nothing has been confirmed till now.
I know there won't be too many people interested to read this.But what the heck.This is my favourite topic.
