You, were more than just a friend! We lost a great talent, a actor with incredible comedic timing. Heartbroken 💔 to hear of your passing. Thank you Matty. 💙 May you Rest In Eternal Paradise. 🙏🏼🕯️🕊️
I really liked this show and thought Matthew Perry was the best part of it. When Friends first came on I was like, "That's the guy from Second Chance/Boys Will Be Boys! He's awesome!" That's why I started watching Friends in the first place.
I had a similar experience, along with "Hey that's the girl from Leprechaun!" "Hey that's the girl who was in the He-Man movie!" "Hey that's the guy who was in that ketchup commercial!" "Hey that's the waitress on Mad About You!" and "Hey that's the guy I will only remember as Ross from Friends!" :P
@@JenifAR87 Ironically the actor played the older version of Perry had the same addiction as him. He was heavy smoker and drinker. It lead to his death
If this were real life, the older version of Matthew Perry would look so similar to the younger version, the situation would be believable. In real life, we'd probably be able to recognize an older version of ourselves, as we'd have the same features.
I completely forgot that Matthew Perry was in this show before Friends. I used to watch this show. He was good. Weird watching this scene now after he has passed. RIP Matthew.
I do have it, but, it's against RUclips's 'terms of use' to upload complete episodes, so, I did it this way, so that I wouldn't be in violation. I have other earlier works of his, including 'Home Free' that I will most likely be uploading in the future. These ('Second Chance') videos didn't seem that popular, so, I have been debating with whether or not to go through the trouble. If enough people seem to want me to, though, I will. Thanks for commenting, and MTLBYAKY!
Young Matthew Perry looks like that guy from “13 Reasons Why”, Clay Jensen. Not carbon copy but if you told me they are father and son or brothers i wouldn’t object.
It's amazing how Chandler Matthew Perry's career had already consistently been before Friends. Then we saw how Chandler Matthew Perry himself was. Sharp yet sensitive. Suave yet 'real'. Cute yet cutting. The 'contradiction' is a red herring as all of those aspects can be, and were, positives that enhanced each other.
I saw exactly one episode of this show 22 years ago. And I still remember the opening song word-for-word. Not that it stood out to me, just one of those odd things you retain...
Just about all the Friends started out on Fox. Matthew Perry was on Second Chance, Jennifer Aniston was on The Edge, David Schwimmer was on Monty, and Matt LeBlanc was on Top of the Heap, a Married with Children spin-off.
I didnt know that matthew perry had a show like this hes cute and talented so originally 80s era had jen aniston matt le blanc and courtney cox anyway thanks for sharing this
The little brother was played by the kid who played the “I want my 2 dollars” paperboy in Better Off Dead. He should’ve quit while he was a legend. RIP Matthew Perry
second chance was also the name of an episode of growing pains which matthew perry guest starred as carol's girlfriend played by tracey gold where he died on the episode from drunk driving
"Though a candle burns in my house, there's nobody home" Colonel Jack O'Neill(Richard Dean Anderson) I was reminded of that quote when Matt Perry said his line @ 1:18 .
Wow I always remembered this show but I could never remember what it was called I even had the theme song stuck in my head for a long time. Thanks for posting this!
Matthew is great, indeed. And he did an amazing job as Chandler. Now all I need to do is find my Rachel Greene, Brenda Walsh, Sylvie Girard, Dana Scully, Olivia Dunham, Prue Halliwell, Willow Rosenberg or Lily Aldrin... :) Wish me luck! I wish you luck with finding your Matthew Perry. ^^
I Love seeing him with his original nose (he changed it after season 1 of Friends). He looks so much more like his dad John Bennett Perry. This show wasn't all that bad, but it didn't last long.
I remember seeing 2 episodes of this show being taped. Once when it was called "Second Chance" then again when it was called "Boys Will Be Boys." It was cool to find Matthew Perry on "Friends" afterward. I wonder what happened with William Gallo and Damien Slader.
so i've never seen this before (my dad asked me to look it up) but i'm guessing the old guy is really matthew perry's character from the future & he traveled to the past for a second chance...am i right?
I googled it-- the older guy died and wasn't able to go to heaven or hell so went back to help his younger self be a better person in order to get into heaven. stupid premise and I see why they dropped it for the second season and renamed the show.
Even before Friends,. Matthew Perry had a show where his friend was a stereotypical Italian
are you still existing on this planet?

Wow so here he plays the younger version of someone and then he plays the older version in 17 Again
Yeahh
I just watched that movie last Saturday
Will miss Matthew so much. So wild that he's only 18 here.
Ironic that the other actor here (Keil Martin/Hill Street Blues) died two years later at only 46.

That smile he did at the start was SO CUTE.
Dam chandler is a kid here
David Marino lol
Their disguises when they walk in the mini mart look like Freddy Mercury and Clark Kent!🤣🤣🤣
Such a phenomenal talent. Had such demons. His book is incredible. RIP.
The title of the show itself was an irony. RIP Matt Perry. Gone but never forgotten.
I prefer addictions .using the word you and others get off on using is such a negative word .
I wonder what cause his demons? Teh casting couch ? The pedos in Hollywood?
I remember this show well. Matthew Perry was more than Chandler on Friends. He was just starting his second act. So tragic. So talented.
If drugs wouldn't have found him Matthew Perry would have been a greatest actor, his comedic timing is perfect. 🤗
He had to take the drugs to get better from the boat accident, but I wish he hadn't gotten addicted

Matthew Perry is soooo fit af in this video and in certain seasons of Friends 😍🔥. Like this comment, if u agree. 👍🏽
Rest in peace😢
His voice is the same...
Matthew Perry is such an incredible actor .....its so unfair he didnt get many jobs after friends
I detect that's sarcasm. Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, Mr. Sunshine, Go On, The Odd Couple. Yeah, no jobs, indeed.
VaultMasterDBT ya and each of those shows were canceled after the 1st or 2nd season
i dont know why tf was i watching this trash when i was a kid. black people had real things to worry about.
He had a drug problem at the end of friends series. He a pill Popper
Alcohol can destroy anyone's life and it did his
so sweet, Matthew Perry 18 or 19 years old. :]
Chazz, Chandler. Well Matthew, the writers did not give you too many chances. Did they :)
wujekskiba yup! Lol
Chaz Chandler is an animal
RIP Matthew Perry
I wish I grew up in the 80’s. The 2000’s blow.

underrated tv show and theme song. this song stuck with me all these years!
same here
I came here to see how bad it was after reading Matthew Perry's book...now I'm invested! Lol
Me too
omg wasn't he the cutest guy in the existence of human beings?
I want a boyfriends just like him.
I love you MP
When the italian friend said act naturally Mathew just acted like Chandler
sad he was underrated he was a great actor you'll be missed RIP Matthew Perry..
Oh the 80's.

First time seeing this. I Love Matthew Perry.. and look it's Mrs Rosini from Who's the boss !!!!
God. I came here straight from mathew narrating this role out in his book. Crazy
7 years before..... SEVEN YEARS BEFORE
5:41 chandler being himself 🤣🤣🤣
4:38 its like watching Young Joey and Chandler 🤣🤣
Matthew perry stands out with excellent acting in a rather mediocre show
He also had a bit part in Silver Spoons
Well, it was David Duclon. I think he created the sub-TGIF quality Punky Brewster.
second chance was also the name of an episode of growing pains which matthew perry guest starred as carol's girlfriend played by tracey gold where he died on the episode from drunk driving
Funny. Last time I looked this up this show on a search engine, I couldn't find it. I started thinking I was imagining it.
I found it on wikipedia but not imdb. it's under Boys will be Boys on imdb.
I remember the switch.
Haha "Matthew L. Perry"
Trying to be like Michael J Fox
I’d forgotten about this show. I watched it back then & I had no idea Matthew starred in it.
Nice pilot episode!
"Though a candle burns in my house, there's nobody home" Colonel Jack O'Neill(Richard Dean Anderson) I was reminded of that quote when Matt Perry said his line @ 1:18 .

I just want to hear that rockin opening song
RIP MATTHEW ❤
2020 I love you Matthew perry, imma still enjoying her nap. 😁
This is so 90s it hurts
as Janice would say,"Oh My God!"....
I love your channel

Soooo cuteee and hoooot
So... this is what happened to Detective J.D. LaRue of the Metropolitan Police Department's Hill Street Precinct.
Hey, that's the mom from The Karate Kid...
Yep. That's Randee Heller. She was one of the cast members of "Soap".

Oh god he's sooo cute *-*

Wasn’t second chance the name of the episode his character died in on Growing Pains?
The actress playing Matthew's mom is Mrs. Larusso from Karate Kid and Cobra Kai.
Can this BE anymore 80s?
Wow, did Perry dodge a bullet with this one! BRUTAL!
Kiel Martin fresh off his stint on NBC, where he played Detective JD LaRue on Hill Street Blues. Seeing JD LaRue do comedy took some getting used to.

were you in between gigs with KISS and needed something to do?
Damien Slade was the paperboy in Better Off Dead! I recognized him right away.
He was super cute
this show looks really really old and Matthew Perry /chandler bing looks really really young
This has a growing pains tv show feel to it. I never heard of it but is this show the same as boys will be boys?
