In the late ’90s and early 2000s, comedian and actor Jay Mohr was a prolific performer appearing in movies, TV shows and on the stand-up comedy circuit. After emerging as a featured player on Saturday Night Live in the early ’90s as a masterful celebrity impressionist, Mohr landed roles in projects as disparate as Jerry Maguire and Ghost Whisperer, as well as hosting and producing the comedy competition show Last Comic Standing. But apart from the stand-up comedy stage, where has Mohr been lately?

Too bad. I really like him!

He currently hosts his own Sports Radio show and a seperate podcast. Would imagine the radio gig pays well and having a radio show and podcast keeps him busy.

Jay Mohr was billed as a rising star in the late '90s, playing memorable roles in movies such as Jerry Maguire and Picture Perfect, as well as having a recurring role on The Jeff Foxworthy Show. Action was meant to be his ultimate catalyst into fame, but it was panned by critics and burned out after one season. Since then, he's only managed supporting roles and TV shows that either were low-rated or short-lived.

In the SNL subreddit, Jay Mohr was said to be one of those few cast members who just oozed this unlikable energy, and always seemed to be trying way too hard.
