The average lifespan of a show on Comedy Central is only slightly longer than that of the common housefly. So when they pulled the plug on David Alan Griers Chocolate News just two months after its debut, it wasnt too surprising. Fortunately for Grier (or DAG, as hes known), he didnt put all his comedic eggs in that particular basket and sketch comedy isnt his only schtick. A graduate of the Yale School of Drama, DAGs quite the versatile actor, having performed in Broadway musicals (The First, Race), radio dramas (NPRs Star Wars), and the place where everyone seems to end up at some point, Dancing with the Stars. Of course, hes still mostly known for his various roles on In Living Color. Two snaps up!
