So you were an adorable kid on a couple of hit TV shows (Gimme A
Break and Blossom), an underrated show (Brotherly Love) and endless other shows and TV movies.
You want to get away from your kid actor days because you're an adult, so you drop the whole "Joey" thing and
start going by the name "Joseph." You want to graduate to meatier roles, more mature roles.
So why do you agree to star in an Ice Breakers commercial with the Duff sisters and say your famous "whoa!" line? I can understand why some TV stars might want to cash in on an old catch phrase - how many times have we had to sit through Gary Coleman saying "whatchoo talkin 'bout Wills? when he got older? - but why you, Joey? (Sorry, Joseph). You're a talented guy who could probably do a lot of things, and while I'm all for self-deprecation and even some nostalgia, I think you're too young to be looking backward like that. So stop saying "whoa" and grab a meaty character role or co-star in a nice ensemble drama.

For a big fat bag of money. They're not exactly beating down his door these days.
