Jim Gaffigan
Jim Gaffigan - an American stand-up comedian and occasional actor was born on July 7, 1966 in Chesterton, Indiana. His comedy routines often include him mimicking of an imaginary audience member commenting on his performance and also voice of "the dumb idea guy," usually introducing him with the phrase "Hey, I got an idea..."

Gaffigan started off with his comic career on January 27, 1991 in New York City. In 2000 he had a brief series on CBS called Welcome to New York, with co-stars Christine Baranski (Cybill) and Sara Gilbert (Roseanne). That same year Gaffigan appeared on Comedy Central as part of his own half-hour Comedy Central Presents. The following year, Gaffigan starred in Ellen DeGeneres' short-lived second sitcom, called The Ellen Show. In 2003-2004 he appeared in several episodes of the television show That '70s Show. Gaffigan has also appeared in the movies Super Troopers and Three Kings.

In 2006, Jim Gaffigan appeared on Comedy Central in a special titled Beyond the Pale. It aired January 29, 2006, and became available for purchase on DVD on February 7th, 2006. Beyond the Pale is Gaffigan's first DVD. This special propelled his stand-up career from comedy clubs to concerts in theatres.

In the United States, he has also appeared in Sierra Mist, Rolling Rock, and Saturn television commercials.

Gaffigan has appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien over 2 dozen times, often bringing episodes of Pale Force, a comedic short featuring a superhero duo (Gaffigan and O'Brien) and highlighting their mutual paleness.

Gaffigan currently plays Andy Franklin in the acclaimed TBS original series, My Boys.

He married actress/producer Jeannie Noth Gaffigan on July 26, 2003. They have one daughter and one son. [1] Noth Gaffigan was the executive producer for Beyond the Pale [2] and has ultimately become her husband's writing partner. [3] Gaffigan is a friend of the Bob & Tom Show.

Beloved to a wide range of audiences after achieving milestones in stand-up, acting and writing. As approachable as he is edgy, Jim is responsible for some of the funniest and most memorable moments in recent television (primetime, cable and the late-night circuit) and film.

As a stand-up comedian, Gaffigans clever, quiet style has earned him an unprecedented number of appearances on both CBS LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN and NBCs LATE NIGHT WITH CONAN O'BRIEN. His recent one hour Comedy Central Special, CD and DVD, all entitled Beyond the Pale have catapulted Gaffigan to one of the most popular touring and recorded comedians in the country today. The DVD for Beyond the Pale went Gold within the first six months.

After Gaffigans first appearance on DAVID LETTERMAN, the host personally chose him to develop a sitcom for World Wide Pants. Eighteen months later, WELCOME TO NEW YORK debuted on CBS to critical acclaim. He then co-starred with Ellen DeGeneres on her CBS sitcom THE ELLEN SHOW. For two years he had recurring roles both on FOXs THAT 70'S SHOW and NBCs ED. Jim has also had roles on SEX AND THE CITY, THIRD WATCH and each of the LAW & ORDER shows, among others. Jim can be seen this November in MY BOYS, TBS' first original scripted comedy series.

On film, Jim has endeared himself to audiences by taking on vivid supporting characters in a number of genres. In the cult hit SUPER TROOPERS, Gaffigan got huge laughs and famously helped add "meow" to the lexicon of Vermont state troopers. Jim's quiet dramatic turn in THE GREAT NEW WONDERFUL, a meditation on the aftermath of 9/11, took audiences and critics by surprise as he embodied an office worker broken by tragedy who ultimately explodes in rage.

Gaffigans other recent film credits include the forthcoming independent films THE LIVING WAKE and STEPHANIE DALEY. He has also been featured in TRUST THE MAN, 13 GOING ON 30, THREE KINGS, FINAL, IGBY GOES DOWN, ENTROPY and THIRTY YEARS TO LIFE. In 2004, he co-starred in TNTs BAD APPLE, with Chris Noth.

Gaffigan recently signed on to co-write and lend his voice to 20 new episodes of PALE FORCE, a series of animated shorts that will air regularly on CONAN and on the internet via webisodes starting in October. The series focuses on two pale crime-fighting superheroes that, like Gaffigan and O'Brien, are equipped with fair skin.

Many recognize Gaffigan from his numerous award-winning commercial campaigns, which include Sierra Mist, ESPN, Saturn and Rolling Rock. His commercial presence earned him Business Weeks 1999 "Salesman of the Year" honor.

Gaffigan currently lives in New York with his family.
