Jim Gaffigan (born July 7, 1966 in Chesterton, Indiana) is an American stand-up comic. His comedy routines often include him doing the voice of a supposed audience member commenting on his performance. He often begins his routines with, "Don't worry, I've never heard of me either." Gaffigan first began performing stand up comedy on January 27, 1991 in New York City. In 2000 he had a short-lived series on CBS called Welcome to New York, which co-starred Christine Baranski (Cybill) and Sara Gilbert (Roseanne). That same year Gaffigan appeared on Comedy Central as part of his own one-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 movie Super Troopers. In 2006, Jim Gaffigan appeared on Comedy Central in a special entitled Beyond the Pale. It aired January 29, 2006, and became available for purchase on DVD that same day. "Beyond the Pale" is Gaffigan's first DVD. Jim Gaffigan also appeared on Comedy Central in his own episode of Comedy Central Presents. In the United States, he has also appeared in Sierra Mist, Rolling Rock, and Saturn television commercials. Gaffigan, along with Dane Cook, is considered a top comedian, and from this has stemmed an almost pseudo-war between their respective fans. Gaffigan has appeared on Late Night with Conan O'Brien numerous times, often bringing episodes of Pale Force, a comedic short featuring a superhero duo (Gaffigan and O'Brien) and highlighting their mutual paleness. On November 28th, 2006 Jim Gaffigan starred as Andy Franklin in the pilot episode of the TBS original series, "My Boys".
