10+ Of The Worst Things Joey Ever Did On 'Friends'

Joey has done a lot of messed up stuff because he wanted to talk to women. However, this instance was one of the worst.

He actually left a baby on a bus to talk to a woman.

There was the time that Joey became an acting teacher, found out one of his students was up for the same role as him and decided to completely sabotage his student.

Unfortunately, the acting directors liked his student more than him, despite his crappy teachings.

Back in the very first season, Joey fell for this girl named Kate. However, after they had sex, she quickly ditched him. He felt really bad after this, having done that same thing to many women.

However, he doesn't really learn much from that experience, doing it many other times throughout the series.

Yes, he plays Dr. Drake Ramoray on Days Of Our Lives, but he actually pretended to be a doctor in real life (well, the reality of Friends) to obtain some person's private information.

Phoebe had a crush on this patient, but she didn't want to go out with him if he had any really bad issues. So Joey offered to pretend to be a doctor in order to gain some info on him.

Highly illegal and pretty immoral.

So Joey sees this girl from Monica's apartment. He thinks she's really hot, so he goes into the building next door and...starts to scream "hot girl" while looking for her.

What? How did he think that would work?

Ross, Chandler, and Joey are on a ride-along. BANG! They hear a gunshot and Joey throws himself over Ross, which causes this whole rift in the Joey-Chandler dynamic.

Except he didn't try and save Ross. He was trying to save his meatball sandwich.

To be fair, it was a wooden leg.

Chandler shows the girl that he's interested in, Ginger, to the gang and Joey freaks out. Turns out he slept with her one time and in the middle of the night woke up cold.

He decided to throw something onto the fire that was keeping them warm and... you can see where this is going.

It's not that she wasn't hot, it wasn't that she wasn't close in proximity, it was that she hated Monica and Chandler.

That was a really bad decision on Joey's part to keep dating her.

Kanye West has nothing on Joey Tribiani.

When he lost that Soapy award, he cursed and freaked out on camera. He gave a speech for the winner of the award. He was generally a big baby.

So Chandler kisses Kate. Whoop-di-doo, Joey was seeing another girl at the time.

Except not Whoop-di-doo, apparently. Joey makes Chandler sit in a box where he has to think about what he's done. Pretty harsh.

It seems that Joey isn't just about being mean to grown women! When Emma develops a liking for Huggsy, Joey can't let her have the darn stuffed animal.

He even goes as far as to buy a new one, which Emma doesn't end up wanting.

So Joey wants to get his ex-Angela back, but she has a new man.

So, he sets up a double date: Angela and Bob (her new man) with himself and Monica.

Here's the rub though: Monica doesn't know this is a double date, and she thinks Bob and Angela are brother and sister.

It's a generally uncomfortable episode with a lot of lost trust.

So Rachel had to go on a dinner date with this girl Melissa, and you know what Joey's response to that was?

"Can I come? I won't even talk, you'll just hear the noise from my video camera."

Sure, they all gave him the name "ugly naked guy," so they're all to blame for body shaming him.

But then there was the time he was using a hammock and Joey said he looked like Play-Doh. Nice, Joey. Real nice.

Well, this is actually a thing that's been going on the whole series, but he pretty much leeches off of Chandler.

Even when he gets his big break he doesn't seem to have money.

I get it, jeez, you don't share food.

No need to yell in one of your friend's faces about it. Seriously dude, calm down for a second. It's just food.

Not only did he have his greasy hands all over it, but everyone knows that the best part of KFC is the skin.

Not because it was a bad thing for a person to do, but because it was just so freaking stupid. Joey has always been dumb, but this was... just too dumb to even watch.

It makes fans cringe every time.

...Than the absolute crisis that was going on with him and his friends.

We know Joey likes food, alright? But instead of him being a food-machine, maybe he could be, I dunno, a person?

There are a whole bunch of problems with this one.

Not only did this relationship stink of desperation on the part of the writers, but it just didn't work for the friends either.

Like, doesn't Joey know that Ross and Rachel are meant to be together?

And did the writers really expect us to believe that this was something that was going to last?

Just so he could throw a party.

And he sent them to the play because he didn't want his friends at the party. That's a real d-bag move, Joey my friend.

Maybe this is also Chandler's fault, but what happened to the chick and duck? In Season 7, they kind of just disappeared!

Ah, you know what happened. Joey probably ate them.

Just so he could try and sleep with her. Joey, man, I get it. You like to have sex.

You're a bit of a womanizer. But you don't have to be such a creep about it.

Sure, Chandler was also involved with this one, but it was still a bad move on Joey's part.

Yes, Ross is super annoying. But be an adult and just ask him to move out.

This was to help Ross choose between Rachel and Julie.

And before you get all in my grill about how Ross did it too, remember that it was Joey's idea.

This one wasn't a bad person thing to do it was... just... weird?

Also, it was Monica's idea, but Joey went through with it just to get a part.

All I can say is... what?

Well, he accidentally proposed to her and when she said yes, he didn't explain the situation immediately.

Instead, he kind of just went along with it... Why? Why would you do that, Joey?

Obviously this is a completely natural thing.

What was weird was how Joey was getting a little too into it.

Yes, Joey is a womanizer, so he probably doesn't think all that highly of women.

But this speech he gave about them being like ice cream is just straight-up insulting.
