Ending a hit TV show can be a daunting thing. For a lot of actors it means trying to find new roles to take their careers to the next level, but for Matt LeBlanc, the last thing he wanted after Friends went off the air was to see more cameras.
在热播剧结局之后，留给主演们的可能会是无尽的落寞。对于很多演员来说，一部剧结局之后的首要任务就是赶紧找到新角色出演并获得更好成绩，但是对于《老友记》的Matt LeBlanc来说，在《老友记》结局之后他面临的却是无戏可演的尴尬境遇。

The actor opened up about the dark time in his life after the show in a recent interview with the U.K.'s Mirror. "For years and years, I barely left the house," he said. "I was burnt out."
在英国《镜报》的采访中，他就公开了自己那段黑暗时期的心路历程，他说：“在《老友记》结束之后的挺多年，我基本很少出门，我的事业突然遭遇低谷。”

The attention from the show made LeBlanc want to hide away for a while to get his head on straight. "My agent was bummed," he says. "Most actors call their agents and say, 'What's going on?' I'd call mine and say, 'Please lose my number for a few years.' It was a very dark time. I almost had a nervous breakdown."
《老友记》的火热让LeBlanc想要隐出公众视线。“我的经纪人也被我搞的很沮丧，大部分演员给经纪人打电话都是‘接下来有什么活接？’，而我却跟他说‘暂时先别给我打电话’。那是非常黑暗的一段时间，我基本处于崩溃的状态。”
