Mark Curry is a talented comedian that can generate laughs pretty much wherever he goes.

Once the star of his own series, Hangin' With Mr. Cooper, Curry has since seemingly disappeared from the entertainment limelight.

With an occassional guest appearance on a sitcom or at a comedy club, Mark reappears and usually steals the show. Unlike many comedians of this era, Curry rarely focuses his jokes on such touchy topics as race, religion, or crass humor - and perhaps this is the ingredient that makes his a wide favorite among various groups.

Surely I'd like to see this comedian more than the occassional ever-so-often stint that has been of late, because he is definitely a rare talent that still thrives in a somewhat shallow pool of entertainment.
