Zee Café to launch comedy ‘Joey’ on 12 July
MUMBAI: Zee Cafe has announced the launch of a sitcom Joey. The comedy kicks off on 12 July Wednesday at 9:30 pm.
Joey says good-bye to a time when his friends were his family and welcomes the chance to turn his family into his friends. After reuniting with his high-strung sister Gina (de Matteo), a strong and sexy hairdresser, Joey shares an apartment with her genius 20-year-old son, graduate student Michael (Costanzo), who literally is a rocket scientist. What Joey lacks in book smarts; he more than makes up for with his people skills, making him the best new friend his nephew could ask for. Joey quickly befriends his hot married neighbour, uptight lawyer Alex Garrett (Anders) who is also the apartment superintendent. All he needs now is for his tough-talking, old school agent, the tact-challenged Bobbie (Coolidge), to get off the casting couch and get him some acting work.
Created by Shana Goldberg-Meehan (Friends) & Scott Silveri (Friends), Joey is executive produced by Kevin S. Bright (Friends), Goldberg-Meehan and Silveri.

CNBC India unveils new logo, rolls out refreshed identity across network
Debuted at IBLA, the redesign signals a sharper, digital-first future
MUMBAI: CNBC has unveiled a refreshed brand identity across its India network, introducing a new logo and visual system that reflects a more modern, digital-first direction.
The rebrand was officially revealed at the India Business Leader Awards held in Mumbai on March 14, marking the first public showcase of the updated design at one of the network’s most prominent platforms.
The overhaul is among the most visible brand updates for CNBC in recent years, aimed at aligning its look and feel with evolving audience habits and a growing multi-platform presence.
At the centre of the refresh is a redesigned logo that moves away from the network’s long-standing multi-coloured peacock motif, opting instead for a cleaner and more minimalist aesthetic. A key visual cue is a blue upward-pointing arrow embedded within the letter ‘N’, symbolising forward momentum, growth and a focus on the future.
The new identity is being rolled out across the entire CNBC cluster in India, including CNBC-TV18, CNBC-TV18 Prime, CNBCTV18.com, CNBC Awaaz and CNBC Bajar. The move brings a more cohesive and contemporary design language across television and digital platforms alike.
The rollout began on March 30, with the network aiming to create a unified viewer experience regardless of how audiences access its content, be it on broadcast, online or connected devices.
With this refresh, CNBC is signalling its next phase of growth in India, blending legacy credibility with a sharper, forward-looking identity designed for an increasingly digital news ecosystem.
