User:Tom Papa

Tom Papa is funny. Really funny! So funny the Boston Globe called him "Really funny!".

His uncanny ability to create material that is both unique and universal has earned him smash-hit appearances on "The Tonight Show with Jay Leno," "The Late Show with David Letterman," "Late Night with Conan O’Brien," "Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn" and landed him the coveted job of opening for Jerry Seinfeld on tour for three years! He was also the star, writer and producer of his own NBC sitcom, "Come To Papa," giving him the unique opportunity to be himself while he played himself being himself on TV. Very few people can say that (literally). Tom has appeared twice at Just For Laughs comedy festival in Montreal. He also just released his first stand-up comedy CD "Calm, Cool, and Collected" available at TomPapa.com.

Now, he says, “I’m in the lucky position of being able to make people laugh for a living.” Papa has appeared in the film "Analyze That", "Comedian" and is lending his voiceover talent to the upcoming DreamWorks animated feature "Bee Movie." Tom is currently co-writing an animated movie, "The Haunted World of El Superbeasto", with Rob Zombie. Tom will be playing the title character, a professional wrestler/superhero. Look for Superbeasto in the Summer of 2007.
