"Matt's so solid. I also think he's the most improved actor on the show. He's found so many layers and so many nuances to that character (Joey) ... Matt has so much heart and such sweetness that I'm glad, finally in the last year or two, he's getting the acting credit he deserves, because he is a fine actor." David Schwimmer
"It means a lot to me that people realize how amazing Matt is." Marta Kauffman
