Chandler Bing and "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip" fans, take note. Variety is reporting that actor Matthew Perry will star / co-produce / co-write a new dark comedy series, which will take place behind the scenes of a talk-show. Perry plays the talk-show host, who's on-camera and off-camera personas are polar opposites.
As of yet, no former "Friends" star has broken the post-pop culture phenomenon / hit series curse. Perry will take another chance at being the cast's Julia Louis-Dreyfus, who broke a similar "Seinfeld" curse with her multi-season sitcom "The New Adventures of Old Christine."
Perry definitely has as much charm as Julia Louis-Dreyfus and his other "Friends," so if anyone were to have another breakout hit, it would likely be him. At least on a cable series, nothing is really off-limits. That could end up boding well for Perry... not so much for Lisa Kudrow.
