Comedian Jon Reep of 'Last Comic Standing' hits the Funny Bone

Small Town Champion

Maybe you've seen me on NBC's "Last Comic Standing," Comedy Central's "Premium Blend" or the half-hour special "Comedy Central Presents: Jon Reep." Maybe you've seen me on TBS's "Pit Stop Comedy." NBC's "Late Friday", or the ABC Sitcom "Rodney" as Officer Gerald Bob the dim-witted cop. If not then you probably know me from Dodge's popular ad campaign as the "Hemi guy."

I'm known to millions as the redheaded hillbilly in the Dodge Ram commercials who leans out of a beat-up car and utters the now famous line: "That thing gotta Hemi?"

But before that I was already one of the hardest working comics in America, selling out clubs and getting standing ovations at college after college across the country. My show is supersonic energy filled with non-stop characters, super clever writing, and, of course, the one talent that separates me from all other comedians in the world: I'm the best redneck dancer since Elvis.

Also, look for me next year in the film, "Harold & Kumar go to Amsterdam." I play a huge redneck named Raymus.
