   Christian Finnegan's Comedian Bio
BioHello there, denizens of the internet. My name is Christian Finnegan and I am a stand up comedian, writer and actor living in New York City. Some may recognize me from Chappelle's Show, where I played Chad (the white guy) in the "Mad Real World" sketch. I currently appear every week on VH1's Best Week Ever and TV Land's Game Time. And I also travel this great nation, bringing my own special brand of semi-hilarity to comedy clubs, colleges, rock clubs, shithole bars, empty conference rooms, real estate seminars, turkish whorehouses, bat mitzvahs, doggy fashion shows, crackhouses and nursing home key parties.

LOVED you on Chelsea Lately.  And so glad that you, unlike others, didn't rely on old jokes to make your mark.

Keep up the great work!
