"The One With Joey's Interview" is the nineteenth episode of the eighth season of Friends, which aired on April 4, 2002. It is a clip show. In it, Joey is nervous about an interview with a Soap Opera magazine, so he asks his friends to interview him in order to practice, the gang reminiscing about the past.
Plot[]
Joey prepares for an interview with Shelley, a journalist from Soap Opera Digest, but he's afraid that he will mess up his interview again like he did last time. So he enlists his friends to sit nearby and make sure that his interview goes well.
The interview goes surprisingly well almost to the end. Unfortunately Joey slips up with his final question when he says he doesn't watch soaps because he has a life, and this can be considered disrespectful to the magazine readers.
A few weeks later when Ross and Rachel are reading the interview in Soap Opera Digest, the piece about not watching soap operas was not published. They ask Joey who says he called Shelley to tell her he was joking and she said it would be alright. When questioned by Monica, Joey admits to sleeping with his interviewer "a bit".

Trivia[]
Goofs[]
- The way Joey holds the magazine in the cold opening goes from folded to fully open to folded again between shots.
- In the same scene Rachel's pen has ballpoint sticking out but in the next shot it's not sticking out.
- While not a goof as such, one of the clips shows the gang (and Julie) watching Joey's porn movie in "The One With Phoebe's Husband" but this archive scene is omitted from the actual broadcast TV episode.
- It should be mentioned that the TV/Nick @ Nite version[s] feature this footage.
- In one of the flashbacks ("The One With Chandler's Work Laugh") the scene in altered and is different from the original scene from season 5. In the flashback, we see a cut that does not exist in the original episode where we hear Phoebe say "That's just an old nutter butter" but it is obviously seen that that's not what she is saying.
