He recently starred as ‘Principal Durbin' on the NBC comedy "A.P. Bio," produced by Seth Meyers, Mike O'Brien, and Lorne Michaels, and voices the titular character on the hit SYFY series "Happy!". This summer, Oswalt served as the lead voice of ‘Max the dog' in THE SECRET LIFE OF PETS 2.

Oswalt recently received Grammy and Emmy nominations for his Netflix special "Annihilation," which received critical acclaim as he addresses his own devastating loss and dealing with the unexplainable, while making it all painfully funny. In 2016, he won the Emmy for 'Outstanding Writing for a Variety Special' for his sixth comedy special "Talking for Clapping" (Netflix) and a Grammy Award in 2017 for his comedy album of the same name.

He is also very well known for playing ‘Spence' on "The King of Queens" for nine seasons. He was also a regular contributor to "Countdown with Keith Olbermann," "Real Time with Bill Maher," and Lewis Black's "Root of All Evil."

As a comedian, Oswalt has shot seven TV specials and released six critically acclaimed albums, including his Grammy-winning Talking for Clapping (which the one-hour special of the same name earned him an Emmy) and Grammy-nominated Tragedy Plus Comedy Equals Time that debuted in 2014. Finest Hour also received a Grammy nomination for "Best Comedy Album," as well as a Showtime one-hour special of the same name.
