At the tender age of 19, the Boston Herald hailed Elon Gold as “a comedy star on the rise.” Gold has established himself as one of the top comedians in the country. Gold’s first impression-infused television appearance was on MTV’s “Half-Hour Comedy Hour,” where he appeared alongside Chris Rock, Ray Romano and Drew Carey. In 1993, he performed at the world-renowned Just For Laughs Montreal Comedy Festival. This appearance, along with his work on the MTV sketch series, “Comikaze,” led to the ABC sketch show “She TV.” Gold’s comedy world provided the perfect segue to his career as an actor. His credits include “Mary & Rhoda,” “The Dana Carvey Show,” “You’re the One” and “Inside Eddie Johnson.” Gold took one of his life experiences — he and his wife living with his in-laws — and pitched a series that soon found a home at BBC. With Kelsey Grammer executive producing and Dennis Farina and Jean Smart starring as his in-laws, Gold mined comedy gold from his miserable existence. Next, Gold bounced back to the FOX network with Pamela Anderson in “Stacked.” Hot off a killer set on The Late Late Show with James Corden, Gold is also a regular on The Tonight Show. Gold splits his time between New York and Los Angeles, and between the Friar’s Club and time with his wife Sacha and son Brandon – and, of course, his in-laws. Elon Gold is one of the very best.
