'Friends' star Matt LeBlanc recalls moment when a kid on the street thought he was Joey's dad

Ever since Netflix added the sitcom to the streaming website, the actor revealed, 'It’s unbelievable for me, it seems every year a new generation is watching it'

Though it has been around 15 years since 'Friends' came to an end, Matt LeBlanc still finds it hard to escape the shadow of the fan favorite sitcom.

Recently in an interview with 'Live with Kelly and Ryan' the actor, who played the role of Joey Tribbiani, revealed a time when a kid called him "Joey's Dad". "I was walking down the street one day, this was a few years ago, this kid, he must have been 13, 14, he’s like, 'Oh my god, you’re Joey’s dad!'," the 51-year-old actor recalled.
