Chris Parnell
Thomas Christopher "Chris" Parnell, 5 Şubat 1967 tarihinde Memphis, Tennessee, ABD'de dünyaya geldi. Liseden sonra North Carolina Sanat Okulu Üniversitesi'nde (UNCSA) drama alanında güzel sanatlar lisansı (BFA) derecesi aldı. Mezuniyetinin ardından bir süre lise öğretmeni olarak çalıştıktan sonra oyunculuk ve komedi kariyerine odaklanmak için Los Angeles'a taşındı. Burada, birçok komedyenin yetiştiği ünlü doğaçlama topluluğu The Groundlings'e katıldı ve yeteneklerini geliştirdi. Parnell, 1998 yılında Amerika'nın efsanevi skeç komedi programı Saturday Night Live (SNL) kadrosuna katılarak ulusal çapta tanınırlık kazandı. 2006 yılına kadar programda yer alan Parnell, program tarihinde iki kez kovulup (2001'de kovuldu, 2002'de geri alındı) tekrar işe alınan tek kadro üyesi olarak da bilinir. SNL döneminde Tom Brokaw taklidi, "Merv the Perv" karakteri ve özellikle Andy Samberg ile birlikte yaptığı "Lazy Sunday" adlı dijital kısa filmle (rap videosu) büyük bir popülerlik yakaladı. "Lazy Sunday", YouTube'un ilk viral videolarından biri olarak internet tarihinde bir dönüm noktası oldu. SNL kadrosundayken, programın başyazarı olan Tina Fey'in yarattığı 30 Rock (2006-2013) dizisinde, tuhaf ve yetersiz doktor "Dr. Leo Spaceman" rolünü oynamaya başladı. Bu karakter, dizinin en sevilen yinelenen rollerinden biri haline geldi ve Parnell'in komedideki absürt ve ifadesiz tarzını pekiştirdi. 2011-2014 yılları arasında Suburgatory dizisinde Fred Shay rolüyle ana kadroda yer aldı. Parnell, kariyerinin en önemli başarılarından bazılarını seslendirme sanatçısı olarak elde etti. 2009'dan 2023'e kadar süren kült animasyon dizisi Archer'da, beceriksiz ve nevrotik ajan Cyril Figgis karakterine sesiyle hayat verdi. Ancak onu küresel bir fenomene dönüştüren rol, 2013'te başlayan ve büyük beğeni toplayan Rick and Morty dizisindeki, ailenin talihsiz ve ezik babası Jerry Smith karakteri oldu. Ayrıca Family Guy, American Dad! gibi birçok animasyonda da konuk seslendirme yapmıştır. Sinema tarafında ise Anchorman: O Bir Efsane (Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy) (2004), TatlıSert (Hot Rod) (2007), Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox Story (2007), Liseli Polisler (21 Jump Street) (2012) ve Sisters (2015) gibi komedi filmlerinde unutulmaz yardımcı roller üstlendi.
