Christian Finnegan can currently be seen on the TBS sitcom Are We There Yet? but is perhaps best known as one of the original cast members of VH1’s Best Week Ever, where he offered keen insight into the workings of popular culture and the ubiquity of celebrity genitalia. Chappelle’s Show fans will recognize him as ‘Chad’, the only white roommate in the infamous “Mad Real World” sketch. Finnegan has also made regular appearances on MSNBC’s Countdown with Keith Olbermann.
Christian Finnegan is a fixture on Comedy Central, having starred in countless network interstitials, the shows Premium Blend and Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn and in his own half hour special. Christian was also the host of TV Land’s Game Time and has appeared on The Today Show and The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson. Christian’s first CD, Two for Flinching, was released by Comedy Central Records in 2006 and his latest DVD, Au Contraire! was released by Warner Bros. in 2009.
