The person behind the punchline

A little backstory.

Bryan Adams is a television comedy writer and producer whose credits include MADtv, The Colbert Report and Mr. Sunshine. His MADtv work belongs to the writing side of sketch comedy: developing comic situations and material for an ensemble that moves between recurring characters, impressions and parodies.

Adams also contributed to The Colbert Report’s topical satire, where the writing served a sustained comic persona as well as individual segments. That work earned a Primetime Emmy writing nomination in 2008. His credits connect ensemble sketch writing with late-night comedy and scripted sitcom production.
