Emo's acting roles include Miami Vice, Weird Al's TV show & film UHF and Meet the Parents (for which he was also Associate Producer). Emo does voices for animated features such as Dooper in Slacker Cats and appeared on several Cinemax & HBO cable specials, plus has a few hit comedy albums under his belt including E=MO2 (winning New Music Award for Best Comedy Album).

"A postgraduate course in lunacy from the master of macabre mischief, incapable of presenting a stale premise or uttering a flat line. He is the velociraptor of comedy: smart, sneaky and merciless." - Star Tribune"

"Utterly idiosyncratic. Refreshing, cranky and extraordinarily funny."
-The Times

"Has a glitteringly sharp comic mind. It's hard to criticise when your windpipe is in a reef knot from concussive laughter." - Sunday Herald

"The E.T. of comedy…. A wise child spewing barbed aphorisms."
-The New York Times

"Hilariously funny...a breathtaking performance." - New York Post

"Very funny and very strange." - Chicago Tribune

"Brilliantly sick, but also brilliantly brilliant." - San Francisco Chronicle
