Friends Spinoff 'Joey' Posts Long-Unaired Final Episodes, Completing Series on YouTube

The official Friends channels capped a months-long rollout by making the full 46-episode run free to stream, giving U.S. viewers first-time access to eight Season 2 installments.

Overview

  • All 46 episodes are now available for free on the official Friends YouTube channel, with the last eight added this week.
  • Those eight episodes never aired in the United States after NBC canceled the show in 2006, though they previously ran in international markets.
  • The Friends Instagram announced the drop, highlighting that American audiences can finally see the remaining Season 2 episodes.
  • Uploads began in March 2025 with two episodes each Tuesday, and the rollout concludes a long period when the series was not officially available.
  • Joey premiered in 2004 and was canceled during Season 2 after ratings fell and a move opposite American Idol; none of the main Friends characters crossed over, and Robert Costanzo reprised Joey Sr. in one of the once-unaired episodes.
