Jim Breuer

BIOGRAPHy

Jim Breuer

Goat Boy is The Man! Jim Breuer, a former cast member of “Saturday Night Live,” has continued to make us laugh since his departure. During his time at “SNL,” Breuer was probably best known for his original character, “Goat Boy,” and his Joe Pesci impression. Breuer’s feature film career began to take off after leaving “SNL.” He starred in Universal Picture’s hit comedy, “Half-Baked” and in Phoenix Pictures’, “Dick.” A stand-up comedian since his college days on Long Island, New York, Breuer worked in comedy clubs around the country for several years before deciding to become a regular on the New York comedy club circuit. After being in New York for only seven months, he landed a gig on the nationally syndicated show, “Uptown Comedy Club,” where he spent two seasons. Breuer has been featured on many network and cable television showcases, such as CBS’ “Late Show with David Letterman,” NBC’s “Later,” Comedy Central’s “Denis Leary Roast” and he hosted Comedy Central’s “Premium Blend” series. Jim also had his own show at MTV entitled, “The Jim Breuer Show,” and his own Comedy Central special, “Jim Breuer: Hardcore.” Breuer, a radio show veteran, is the host of Fridays with Jim Breuer on Sirius. Jim Breuer is hardcore – totally, head-banging awesome.
