And the newest enrollee at the Network Crime Procedural Guest-Starring Academy for Typecasted Celebrities (frequented by Michael Gross, Chevy Chase, and, well, the list goes on and on) is…Joey Lawrence! Yes, PopWatchers, the Blossom star, most recently seen trying to untangle himself from Edyta Sliwinska’s legs on last season’s Dancing With the Stars (pictured), will play a serial killer who’s freed on a technicality, then hunted by Gary Sinise’s Mac, on the April 25 episode of CSI: NY. Talk about trying to shake off your career whoas! (Badum bum.)
Anyhow, Joey’s bold move got me thinking about another Joey who could benefit from a little image makeover: Matt LeBlanc, whose post-Joey IMDB page is blanker than Sendhil Ramamurthy’s facial expressions on Heroes. Seriously, I’m thinking a hunting knife, a little blood splatter, and a tense interrogation scene with Mariska Hargitay is exactly what LeBlanc needs to revitalize his post-Friends career. And look! No talking chimps! Who do you nominate for a spot at the NCPGSATC? (Yeah, that acronym is especially heinous. Please forgive.)

maybe leblanc just wants to spend more time with his kid.
Matt LeBlanc sure has the money to take time off, considering he and his Friends made 1 mil per episode later on.
I’m going to be completely catty with my comment and say, Matt needs to get his figure back.
I’m sorry but we put so much pressure on women when they gain weight; Matt needs to slim down back to his younger days. Nobody (accept me) wants a premature “daddy” on the screen – WE WANT HUNK!
Here’s an idea: how about Daniel Radcliffe? He seems especially keen on erasing the Harry Potter image, and portraying a psychopath on SVU would help him along with that goal. Remember when Steve from Blue’s Clues played a serial killer? I think it was on Homicide, at the height of his green rugby shirt-wearing fame.
Hmm..maybe his fellow FRIEND Jennifer Aniston needs a career-makeover as well. Riding on the coat-tails of a Rachel hairdo and failed marriage forever, do not a career make.
Ha, ha, I was just going to say fellow friend Jennifer Aniston could use a break from playing the blah girl next door. Oh wait, actually that’s us who could use the break from her. Go away Jennifer (and Joey) and take your gazillions. We see them both enough in those endless reruns. Unless they turn up as a corpse on CSI, not interested.
Me thinks Matt needs a gig with Jenny Craig first.
Maybe those 2 Joey’s can team up with a real Joey (Fatone) and play a gang of serial killers who are also brothers. And who also have their shirts off a lot. I’m there!
Craig T. Nelson (it bothered me he was in Blades of Glory)
Noah Wyle/Anthony Edwards – love to see them not just as lovable docs on ER
Scott Bakula – miss Quantum Leap
Patrick Swayze – Roadhouse style
I say bring on Norm MacDonald as a resident creepo in one of the Law & Orders. On a related story, where the hell IS Norm MacDonald.
Also, Edyta Sliwinska is INCREDIBLY hot…gotta love those legs!
