“I would sit on the couch forever if you let me,” Matt admitted in the resurfaced clip.

For reference, Matt, 57, got his big break when he landed the role of Joey Tribbiani in the hit NBC sitcom Friends back in 1994, which ran for 10 seasons before coming to an end in 2004.

The six actors all enjoyed successful careers after Friends, too, including Matt — although his jobs have arguably been a little less steady than some of his former costars.

And Matt has been incredibly open about how intentional his lack of TV work has been over the years, with the star making it clear that he only has one main priority at this point in his life, and that is to do nothing.

And the star doubled down on this mindset during a 2018 appearance on the Scandinavian TV show Skavlan, where he said of his post-Friends career: “My plan was, I did 10 years of Friends, then two years of Joey, and then I said: ‘Right, I’m gonna take a year off, I wanna take a year off and just relax.'”

The exchange happened when Matt appeared on the British talk show The Graham Norton Show back in 2011, with host Graham Norton not holding back as he said to the actor: “It does sound like your work ethic isn’t that high, you don’t like leaving your home that much?”

“Yeah,” Matt replied. “I hate to say it, my mom probably won’t be too proud, but my favorite thing to do is absolutely nothing. I would sit on the couch forever if you let me.”

The host then pointed out that Matt has “big toys” at his house to keep him busy, and Matt confirmed that he did with a huge smile on his face. He said: “I’ve got some cool toys. I’ve got a big, huge bulldozer to play with. Big.”

He also clarified that he doesn’t keep the bulldozer in his garden, sharing: “It’s at this big piece of property I have. And I have a motocross track there, so we use it to make the jumps and do all that kind of stuff.”
