Unique

Matt LeBlanc has a unique way of acting. He has a charm that can't just be passed over. You can hardly imagine that he could be in some other way in the real life. :) His character fits him so well, that you can't just think about him as being a... let's say, serious person. He's gorgeous. Drea de Matteo is also unique in her way, of protecting her 'boy' and seeing things. Although she is sometimes annoying for the two, she always succeeds in being loved by them. She plays very well the role of the protecting mother. Even if she's kind of insane sometimes. Paulo Costanzo also acts very very well. I liked him first in "Road Trip". He's very smart but he never had a girlfriend, although he looks very well. They all fit very well in that family. Good choice, producers!!!! It's really cool!!!!! We want more!
