His late night appearances gave Jake the exposure he needed to land the 10th Annual HBO Young Comedian’s Special, a _ hour One Night Stand, and his very own HBO Comedy Special, This’ll Take About An Hour. Jake received incredible reviews, strong ratings, and a Cable Ace Award nomination for best writing in an Entertainment Special. People Magazine rated the special as one of the ten best television shows of the year and TV Guide named it one of the “50 Funniest Moments of TV.” 

Jake is also making his mark on the feature world. This fall Jake appeared on the big screen next to Bruce Willis in the Alan Rudolph film, Breakfast of Champions. Jake first worked with Rudolph on the film, Mrs. Parker & the Vicious Circle, in a cast that included Mathew Broderick, Jennifer Jason Leigh, and Campbell Scott. 

Jake’s bizarre take on life and his uniquely intelligent style have made him a regular at comedy clubs all over the country and former host of Comedy Central’s Two Drink Minimum. Most recently, Jake was at the U.S. Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen where he performed his own hour live show, to rave reviews. More information is available at www.jakethis.com.
