Billie’s mother, Maggie Baird, starred in perhaps the most popular sitcom of all time in 1999.

The result of FriendsIn “The One Where Joey Loses His Audience,” Maggie plays Casting Director 2 while Joey Tribbiani (Matt LeBlanc) auditions for her.

The scene shows Joey losing a role he actually needed to pay for his medical care due to a painful hernia.
