Adam Carolla

Highest Rated: The 24 Hour War (2016)

Lowest Rated: 24% Mansome (2012)

Birthday: May 27, 1964

Birthplace: Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA

Comedic radio and television personality Adam Carolla enjoyed a uniquely unscripted career as a radio and TV host, due in no small part to his irreverent wit and smarmy, laconic delivery, which earned a sizeable fan base among the bawdier audiences of cable TV and drive-time FM radio. Known for his cynical observational humor, Carolla loved pushing the boundaries of political incorrectness in a way that appealed to a wide spectrum of audiences, never really clarifying whether he chose easy targets in parody or to align himself with the broad comedy-loving masses. Fans suspected that the "no self-esteem" success was brighter than his 1.75 high school grade point average suggested, as he became co-founder of Jackhole Productions and co-producer of a number of successful TV comedies, including "The Man Show" co-starring good friend Jimmy Kimmel (Comedy Central, 1999-2004), "Crank Yankers" (Comedy Central, 2002-07), and the short-lived shows "Too Late with Adam Carolla" (Comedy Central, 2005) and "The Adam Carolla Project" (TLC, 2005). Following his film debut with "The Hammer" (2007), which he also co-wrote and co-produced, he joined the cast of "Dancing with the Stars" (ABC, 2005- ) in 2008 and started his unrestrained and highly successful podcast "The Adam Carolla Show," which underscored his status as a powerful comedic voice over the airwaves.
