That sounds like something Joey would audition for.
made me spill my tea over the desktop from laughthing, sooo true lol
Poop Flake HaHa
exactly what i was thinking
Nailed it :D
Wahahaha yes yes 😆😆😆
Let's all admit it...Chandler Bing would not be as iconic if it was not for Matthew Perry.
freedom1234573 Like I told a friend, this guy could read the phone book and it would be funny. Must be a Canadian thing because we know there's some hilarious mo-fos that have come out of Canada.
+Marie B *True!* But hypothetically, would _LAX2194_ turn out to be lame if Perry was in it?
Asif Khan I saw a bit of it online and I think I know the problem: The writing was all wrong. WAY WRONG.
Marie B I can't tell you about the writing, but I guess it's pretty obvious because, the name _LAX2194_ surely was never meant to be a winner...
Asif Khan Just making an observation as a writer.
Luckily he joined the cast of 'Friends' giving birth to that awesome, hilarious character of Chandler Bing. Thanks for making us laugh our asses off, Matt.
Baggage-Chandler!
tarrakis Good one!
I too want to see LAX2194
google it, theres a clip or two floating around :)
+Ryan Smedley Ryan Stiles is all you would need to watch. #WhoseLine
What a year has done to Seth's interviewing skills! My family has been addicted to his show from the start, but wow! It's gotten really great! Good job Seth & team!
he's a good storyteller :D
+Oak Adthapol N. He always was. Of course he's also a bit of a writer considering he co-wrote the pilot episode of The Odd Couple.
I must have heard this story 30 times in different interviews for the past 20 years. Please ask him some new questions people!
Better than his M Knight story that he tells all the time.
LAX 2194 sounds a lot like Mac n Cheese
Ha ha
Love Matthew, I hope his new show does well
I wanna see that pilot as well ! For the love of mankind, somone please release this lol!
I've seen a clip of it
From Baggage Handler to Bing Chandler, nice transition.
Love him!
Yea He seems awesome!
*SCENE FROM "LAX 2194"*
BAGGAGE HANDLER #1: "Hey, Xenork, if it really is the year 2194, why the hell does the world still need baggage handlers?"
BAGGAGE HANDLER #2: "Good point, Grimlac. Let's get in our flying car, head back to our monopod and watch a _Friends_ re-run."
(ROLL END CREDITS)
Could this comment BE any funnier
They both seem like really nice guys.
+Márton Lukács However they're both old and only one is married. But still really nice guys.
I don't care how old Matthew Perry is...I still find him attractive. Of course I'm 40 years old so there's not that much of an age difference there. ;)
Can someone please resurrect this show it sounds so bad it's amazing
Interesting to note that the creators of the LAX 2194 show ended up directing Captain America: The Winter Soldier, and are signed on to direct the next Captain American and Avengers films.
+Ryan Taylor Please tell me at least the movies were better. I saw a bit of LAX 2194 and I can see why FOX didn't want to pick it up.
Does anyone else hear a lisp? I started hearing it when I watched the Odd Couple.... And I can't unhear it...
+L Saito He does have a tiny lisp. Also, he's got a bit of his Canadian accent left. I got confirmation of this from a friend in Manitoba. It's very slight so you really have to listen closely.
Marie B There is no Cdn accent, except dialects if you're from the East Coast but that is the same in the US.
@@angelaweston608 Every so often when you hear him talk, you can hear this very watered down Toronto accent (which is only appropriate since he grew up in Ottawa).
Heard this story first on Kevin Pollak's Chat Show, with Chat Show as host.
I wish I could see LAX 2194 pilot as well.
This mattew guy plays a good chandler bing
EverFresh Delves Hahaha
Matthew Perry AKA Chandler is such a legend, defo one of my fave friends, im so glad he finally got the part
Coming back to this interview in 2020, it's sad how hard Matthew Perry has aged the past 5 years :/
What a stupid headline. It wasn’t a choice to turn them down. Matthew had already signed a contract to do LAX2194 by the time Friends began auditioning. LAX2194 never worked out and so Friends, who had Matthew’s rights as a backup, got him instead.
greatest show ever
How hilarious is this XD
I love Matthew!!! I have loved him and watched him since I was a little girl (Second Chances!) He seems like a really great guy, very funny and oh,so cute!!!! God bless!
Get rid of that god awful end music please!
R>I>P Matt
He will always be gorgeous ♥ Love him, love Chandler!
Ojalá pueda encontrar a un Chandler en mi vida :B
I saw clips of LAX 2194 on an old special about failed pilots, and it is...very bad. But Ryan Stiles was in it, so he was okay.
i would like to see that pilot too! :D
HE LOOKS THE SAME OH MY GOSH
If LAX 2194 had been merged with MiB franchise & Matthew Perry hadn't left this show (& ofcourse not left Friends either) then it'd have been awesome.
There’s a clip on TH-cam from that L.A.X but not with Mathew
He is chandler in life too
I want to see Baggage Handler 2194
in themix watch?v=iBaDqNGLgv0
You really don't
That show sounds interesting too
RIP so sad
where is this pilot??? did he send it to you? I want to see it too
Hey Seth, are you sure that FRIENDS is now on netflix?
Apyong Sardeñola it is
Apyong Sardeñola only on the US and Canada
India too
where can we watch rest of matthew Perry's interview
Please show us where we can watch this pilot.
Anyone knows where you can find that pilot?
Matthew Perry is ready for grandfatherhood.
+Dave Bryan How do you suppose?
Chandler 1:26
Kelly Hu stared in the show
Glad to see him sober
So that story is basically a plot line for Matt LeBlanc's character, on the show where he plays a version of himself. Except his crappy show doesn't get cancelled.
Is it just me or Matt looks abit like Leno with this haircut.
Nah. The chins are different.
"Little people" or " Fun sized"?
Maybe he would have become a tennis player after that Alien stupidity flopped.
The directors of LAX 2194 The Russo Brothers, went on to make Captain America 2 & 3 and the two next Avengers movies.
Follow my Twitter - @MaxBezant no that was LAX
what happened to him
He got older like every does
i love mathew but he's gotten a lot fatter on his face
+james acer Yeah but he still looks good.
slayerkitty If you ask me, he looks WAY better as he's gotten older. Being middle-aged agrees with him. LOL
Cool, misleading title!
All or most of Friends were broke before the show.
why does seth myers have his own show?? Theres other people that can do a better job.
Yeah, like Matthew Perry. Hell, I'd watch a talk show if he was hosting. ;)
He sounds like Caitlyn Jenner
+dooner More like Caitlyn Jenner sounds like Matthew Perry.
