Matt LeBlanc is back in 'Episodes' and more for your weekly TV preview

(Sophie Mutevelian | Showtime) Matt LeBlanc stars as a warped version of himself in "Episodes."

Yes, former “Friends” star Matt LeBlanc will return in the lame CBS sitcom “Man with a Plan” at midseason. But he’s also back in “Episodes,” playing an alternate, awful version of himself in that profane, insane and hilarious show that skewers the TV industry. In the final season premiere, Matt is a successful game-show host, but he’s not happy about it.
