TV Quote of the Day (‘Friends,’ In Which Joey Bombs at His Audition)



“Legendary” actor-director Leonard Hayes (played by Jeff Goldblum), explaining why Joey’s audition bombed: “You're in your head. You-you're thinking way too much.”

Joey Tribbiani (played by Matt LeBlanc): “I really doubt that.”

Leonard: “No, no, no. It's that you're not connected with anything in your body. There's no urgency. The scene is a struggle, it's a race. Also, what you did was horizontal. Don't be afraid to explore the vertical. And don't learn the words. Let the words learn you.”

Joey: “Couldn't I just sleep with the producer?”—Friends, Season 9, Episode 15, “The One with the Mugging,” teleplay by Peter Tibbals, directed by Gary Halvorson, air date Feb. 13, 2013
