Beloved by a wide range of audiences, Gaffigan continues to prove himself a major talent, responsible for some of the funniest and most memorable moments in recent television and film.

His 2006 Comedy Central special, Beyond the Pale, was certified platinum, selling more than 150,000 DVDs and 170,000 CDs.

Last December, Gaffigan finished his latest Comedy Central live tour, Jim Gaffigan: The Sexy Tour, during which he performed at 50 sold-out shows across 25 cities.
