In The Goldbergs episode “Our Perfect Strangers,” while Beverly (Wendi McLendon-Covey) gets to work on her cookbook, her children Erica (Hayley Orrantia), Barry (Troy Gentile) and Adam (Sean Giambrone) deal with their distant relative Gleb who is visiting from Russia. They’re not impressed until they figure out a way for Gleb to make their lives “so much easier.” Gleb turns out to be a pretty good sport especially when the Goldberg kids use him as a target while practicing archery.
Gleb on The Goldbergs is portrayed by Joey Slotnick. He’s known for his roles on Nip/Tuck (Dr. Merril Bobolit), Alias (Steve Haladki), Boston Public (Milton Buttle), The Single Guy (Mark Sloan), and in films including Too Big To Fail (Dan Jester), Hollow Man (Frank Chase), and Twister (Joey), among others. Slotnik will appear next on the big screen in The Goldfinch based on Donna Tartt’s New York Times bestselling novel. The Goldbergs airs Wednesdays at 8 pm on ABC, right before its spin-off show Schooled.
