More Details About Comedian Jim Breuer
More Information
Jim Breuer has established himself as one of the most outrageous comedians in the U.S. through his incredible stand-up performances, charismatic stage antics and impressions, various television appearances, movie roles and his Sirius Satellite Radio show. In 1995, Jim joined NBC's “Saturday Night Live,” becoming best known for his original character “Goat Boy” and his impression of actor Joe Pesci, resulting in the recurring “Joe Pesci Show” sketch.
In 1998, after a four-year stint on “SNL,” Jim starred in the movie “Half Baked,” alongside comedian Dave Chappelle. That summer, MTV also invited the comedian to be a host on the popular show “MTV’s Beach House,” which featured Jim strolling the New Jersey shore boardwalk with hidden cameras. Additional appearances include numerous stints on NBC’s “Late Night with Conan O’Brien,” as well as roles in several movies, such as “Dick” (1999) and “Once in the Life.”
Jim’s revolutionary style of stand-up comedy secured him a spot on Comedy Central’s list of the “100 Greatest Stand-Ups of All Time.” Unlike other comedians, Jim also shows his fans a softer side with his “Family Man” show, where he brings hilarious anecdotes about being a family man to life through charismatic stage antics and impressions. Nothing is sacred, as Jim introduces the audience to his family, telling side-splitting stories about his Dad (a.k.a. “Shuffles”), going to tap dancing lessons and gymnastics with his daughters and more.
In 2004, Jim began his career at Sirius Satellite Radio as the host of his own show “Breuer Unleashed” on RawDog 104. Along with co-hosts, comedian Pete Correale and his high school buddies Larry Schneidmuller and Jimmy “Shaka,” “Breuer Unleashed” takes listeners through a wide array of topics from music to family and friends to baseball and more. Most recently Jim starred in his own Comedy Central special "Let's Clear the Air," now also on DVD.
