Matt Le Blanc: Hello. How You Doin’ ? I’m Matt Le Blanc. Some of you viewers at home might remember me as “Joey” on the sitcom “Friends”. How You Doin’ ? After Friends went off the air, I did a spin off called “Joey”. How You Doin’ ? The show was cancelled after one season and replaced with reruns of “Suddenly Susan”. So, this is where I am now. How You Doin’ ? My wife left me; I gained 25 pounds and gained the nickname, “that guy from that show!” How You Doin’ ? Now, I host a cable access show about celebrities who are now no longer celebrities.

Welcome to my show, “How You Doin’ ?” How You Doin’ ? Please welcome my sidekick for tonight’s show, you might remember her as “Kennedy from MTV”, here is my sidekick, Kennedy.

(Enter Kennedy)

Kennedy: Hello, I am Kennedy. The only Kennedy that’s not dead or drinking themselves to death or in politics!

Matt Le Blanc: So, Kennedy… How You Doin’ ?

Kennedy: Okay. How are you, Matt?

Matt Le Blanc: No, Kennedy…you don’t get it. How You Doin’ ?

Kennedy: Sorry, Joey. No. I’m seeing someone.

Matt Le Blanc: Who?

Kennedy: Jesse Camp. Remember him?

Matt Le Blanc: Moving on…our first guest tonight, you might remember from these lyrics, “All right stop, collaborate and listen… Ice is back with my brand new invention.” Please welcome, Ice Ice Baby himself…Vanilla Ice.

(Vanilla Ice comes out wearing clothes circa 1991)

Vanilla Ice: Hey, Matt! How you doin’?

Matt Le Blanc: How you doin’?

Vanilla Ice: I’m actually doing pretty well. I just cut an album with the dudes from “2 Live Crew” and MC Hammer produced the album.

Kennedy: That sounds really awesome. Like gag me with a spoon.

Vanilla Ice: What the hell?

Matt Le Blanc: How you doin’?

Vanilla Ice: Yo! All right stop, Collaborate and listen
Ice is back with my brand new invention
Something grabs a hold of me tightly
Then I flow like a harpoon daily and nightly
Will it ever stop? Yo -- I don't know

Kennedy: Okay…please stop.

Matt Le Blanc: Okay, it’s time for our next guest, anyone recognize this catch phrase? Say it Kennedy.

Kennedy: What are you talking about, Willis?

Matt Le Blanc: Please welcome Gary Coleman!

(Gary Coleman walks out; Kenan is on his knees to play the role)

Gary Coleman: (into the camera) Whatta ya talking ‘bout, Willis?

Vanilla Ice: I love when you do that!

Matt Le Blanc: How you doin’?

Gary Coleman: I’m doing fine, Matt. I ran for Governor of California, last fall. And…that’s about it.

Matt Le Blanc: How you doin’?

Vanilla Ice: Word to the mother, Gary!

Gary Coleman: (into the camera) Whatta ya talking ‘bout, Willis?

Kennedy: Okay, since I don’t have a catchphrase, I will introduce our musical act for tonight. You might remember that they didn’t actually sing…but does that make them any worse than Britney Spears? Please welcome the surviving member of Milli Vanilli, Fabrice Morvan.

(Camera fades to a mock performance stage)

(Fabrice Morvan starts singing, obviously lip-syncing to “Girl You Know It’s True”)

Girl you know it's true, oh, oh, oh, I love you
Yes you know it's true, oh, oh, oh, I love you
Girl you know it's true

Matt Le Blanc: How you doin’? That’s it for my show, tonight. Join me next week, when my guests will be Joey Lawrence from that show “Blossom”, the guy who played Uncle Joey on “Full House” and my musical guest will be that Rico Suave dude. Good night.
