David Cross

David Cross is exactly the kind of contradiction I enjoy. A sharp Emerson College graduate who won an Emmy for writing at twenty-nine, he is a legitimate craftsman who chooses to go on stage and antagonize his audience with caustic stand-up. His range floors me, from the gloriously deluded Tobias Fünke on Arrested Development to a cartoon villain in Alvin and the Chipmunks and steady voice work. I value that prickly, overclocked intelligence comedians get when they think hard purely to make you laugh. Comedians who refuse to pander are usually the ones worth trusting, and Cross is firmly in that camp.
