After 'Friends' Ended, Matt LeBlanc Stole That Magnetic Drawing Toy From Chandler and Joey's Apartment For the Sweetest Reason

Friends has been off the air for 15 years and it's still as popular as it's ever been. It's only natural that the cast––who've all since moved on to steady careers in television and film––would be asked about the show, even after all this time. Matt LeBlanc, who played Joey "How you doin'?" Tribbiani, shared a special something with fans during an appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon.


LeBlanc revealed he "stole" a prop from the set of the hit show after it ended.

The characters of Joey and Chandler (who was played by Matthew Perry) had a Magna Doodle (a magnetic drawing toy) hanging on the door of their apartment. The words would change every so often, thanks to the efforts of Paul Swain a crew electrician who would play around with it.

LeBlanc says he took the Magna Doodle and gave it to Swain as a parting gift.

"I stole it and gave it to him, so he's got it. So, that's kind of cool," he said. "I could have sold it for a lot more."

That wasn't all LeBlanc took, however. He says he also took the foosball from Joey and Chandler's foosball table. It now resides in his toolbox. (It's certainly seen better days!)

"I have it in my toolbox somewhere. Why it's in my toolbox, I don't know," he shared.

LeBlanc joked that he wanted to take the couch, but that he couldn't fit it in his car.

People (still!) can't get enough of Friends.

A few thought that LeBlanc would have taken a different prop, though:

LeBlanc also found out he was wrong about the number of claps in "I'll Be There for You," the Friends theme song.

"How many claps are in the Friends theme tune?" asked host Jimmy Fallon.

"Five," LeBlanc replied.

"Oh no, it's actually four," Fallon said.

"No it's five, I've heard it like a thousand times," LeBlanc said.

Oh, really?

Never change, Matt. Never change.

Outrage After Video Captures ICE Pepper-Spraying Protester Directly In The Face While He's Pinned Down

Anti-ICE protests in Minneapolis continue to grow in the weeks since an ICE agent killed Renee Nicole Good. Now people are crying foul after a different agent was filmed spraying a man directly in the face with a chemical irritant while he was pinned to the ground by two other ICE agents.

In south Minneapolis, near West 28th Street and Blaisdell Avenue, agents pinned a person to the ground and sprayed a bright orange chemical irritant directly into their face. The clashes between federal agents and local residents erupted shortly before 2 p.m. Wednesday, after the detention of two people near the intersection drew dozens of protesters who began shouting at officers.

Jesse Watters Dragged After Spouting Ridiculous Theory About Why Critics 'Never' Call Trump 'Dumb'

Fox News personality Jesse Watters was dragged after he offered the ridiculous theory that critics "never" call President Donald Trump "dumb"—even after all of the criticism Trump has received for outrageous and uninformed remarks he made at this year's World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

Trump "appeared to mix up Greenland and Iceland around three times" during his rambling speech to the world elite, per one reporter, a claim that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt flatly denied. He also claimed Europeans call him "daddy"—what?—and said the Swiss, who already largely speak German, would be speaking German were it not for the U.S.

Gen Z Sparks Debate After Deciding Which Common Millennial Name Is The New 'Karen'

We've all heard the name popularly assigned to women who are a nuisance in public, make a scene, demand to see the manager, and absolutely refuse to accept responsibility for anything: Karen.

Since around 2018, when the name was established as an insult, thousands of videos have gone viral that feature angry women in coffee shops, disgruntled that they have to wait in line, women refusing to wear a mask during the pandemic, women making racist and derogatory comments to people of color in public spaces, and much more.
