About Comedian Gary Owen

Comedian Gary Owen ("Think Like a Man", "House of Payne", BET)

One of the nation's top touring stand-up comics, Gary Owen also holds the distinction of being the only white comedian to ever host BET's "Comic View". He was also a cast member on TBS' "House of Payne" and appeared in the hit film "Think Like a Man", as well as starring in his own Showtime stand-up special: "True Story". Many people may recognize him as the dancing "Mr. Broccoli" in the movie "Daddy Day Care" with Eddie Murphy, as the goofy redneck deputy in the movie "Held Up" with Jamie Foxx, or for his role as Crazy Cody in the Ice Cube and Kevin Hart comedy "Ride Along". A native of Cincinnati, Ohio, Owen did a stint in the military before pursuing his career in comedy. He's toured all across the country, released two stand-up DVDs ("Breakin' Out the Park" and "Urban Legend") and now he headlines Baltimore Comedy Factory.
