20 Hilarious Friends Spin-Offs (That Never Existed)

7. The One With The Handsome Optometrist

Friends Promo 4
NBC

Tom Selleck played everyone’s favourite love interest on the show - possibly joint favourite with Paul ‘Mike Hannigan’ Rudd - but what might have happened to Richard Burke after Monica rejected him at the end of season six?

In order to forget about Monica, put the past behind him and get a fresh start, everyone's favourite tall, handsome optometrist retires to Hawaii, 2500 miles from the west coast, pretty much as far from New York as you can get while remaining in the USA… but can he stay out of trouble?

In Eye Candy, Richard decides to open a cigar shop and moustache grooming parlour... but with his dog, a pug called Higgins, ends up investigating crimes on the side, most of which can be solved using his advanced knowledge of the human eye.
