10 Worst TV Performances Of 2016
9. Matt LeBlanc - Adam Burns (Man With A Plan)
Say what you want about Matt LeBlanc, the man is clearly eager to keep his television career going, showing up in programmes like Episodes, Top Gear and Man With A Plan. In the case of Man With A Plan, however, it feels like LeBlanc is merely there for the pay cheque.
In the show, LeBlanc plays Adam Burns, a father forced to become a stay-at-home dad after his wife goes back to work. There, he learns that parenting isn't quite as easy as he once thought (groan).
LeBlanc is a serviceable TV actor, but his character in Man With A Plan comes across as totally forced, his usual sarcastic charm rendered borderline unpleasant through dull writing and unfunny "gags" that totally fail to land.
