This Saturday. I'll have to watch this one since the guy grew up next door to me in Knoxville, TN. His real name is PJ Clapp. (Philip John.) All the guy ever wanted to do is what he's doing now. He went to California originally to go to acting school. As I recall, he didn't last at that. His wife I think made jewelry to support them as well. He has 1 daughter (last I knew of).
His big break was he started doing stunts for a skateboard magazine. It came to someone's attention and the next thing you knew, he had offers from 3 different networks, and the show Jackass was born. He's now parlayed that into quite a few movie roles from MIB II, to the new Dukes of Hazzard movie coming this year. He worked with Jessica Simpson as Daisy in this one. :E He plays "Bo".
Anyway, I'll be interested to see how he does on SNL. This could break his career even further into the big time.
Go PJ!
