Matt LeBlanc Interview Part 2

Synopsis

Matt LeBlanc discusses his role in the show 'Episodes,' created by David Crane and Jeffrey Klarik, known for 'Friends.' He highlights the unique premise of the show, which features British writers adapting their dignified PBS-style series for American audiences, resulting in a culture clash. The original storyline involves a headmaster in London who is in love with a lesbian librarian, but the American version simplifies it to a hockey coach played by LeBlanc. Filming takes place entirely in London, despite the show's Hollywood setting, due to budget constraints. LeBlanc appreciates the creative freedom provided by Showtime, allowing for more adult content, including swearing and nudity, which adds to the show's humor.
