The hilarious Jon Benjamin, already busy playing the lead in two series – FX’s “Archer” and Fox’s upcoming “Bob’s Burgers” – just received a 10-episode order for a third.
Comedy Central’s “Jon Benjamin Has A Van” is a live-action faux newsmagazine from Funny Or Die, inspired by videos Benjamin created for a live comedy show.
Benjamin has a long history with Comedy Central, stretching from his improvisational work as son Ben Katz on “Dr. Katz: Professional Therapist” to his stint as writer-producer and second banana on the recently-cancelled “Important Things With Demetri Martin.”
On the Cartoon Network, Benjamin was Satan on “Lucy, Daughter of the Devil” and Coach McGuirk on “Home Movies”:
