Comedian, actor, television writer, author and musician Paul Reiser is one of Hollywood’s most
prolific creativesâ€"and he shows no signs of slowing down.
2022 was a busy year for Reiser. In Hulu’s new critically-acclaimed comedy series “Reboot”
from Modern Family creator Steve Levitan, Reiser plays Gordon, the original creator of the old
sitcom being rebooted. Awards Daily says “Reiser truly excels, giving one of his very best
performances…here, he reminds us just how very funny and experienced he is in the world of
television comedy.”
He also took his first step into bloody, superhero glory, joining Season 3 of Amazon Prime’s
Emmy-nominated The Boys, playing “The Legend.” Also this year Reiser filmed “The Problem
with People,” an original comedy feature film which he wrote, produced, and stars in alongside
Jane Levy and Colm Meaney.
Reiser currently stars in two hit shows for Netflix: Stranger Thingsâ€"the company’s biggest
series of all timeâ€"where he plays Dr. Sam Owens, a role created by the Duffer Brothers
specifically for him; and Chuck Lorre’s The Kominsky Method, for which he received an Emmy
nomination for Outstanding Supporting Actor.
The multi-faceted actor also revived one of his most iconic roles in the highly anticipated return
of Mad About You, the long-running hit 90s comedy Reiser co-created and starred in with Helen
Hunt. The Emmy, Peabody and Golden Globe-winning comedy ended in May 1999 and
premiered 20 years later as a limited series on Spectrum Originals. All seven seasons of the
original Mad About You and the re-visit are available for streaming on Amazon Prime.
