NACA NATIONALS 2009 MAINSTAGE SHOWCASE

It would take too long to cite all of his credits, but here's a small sampling: Benson placed in the top six on Season 5 of NBC's Last Comic Standing.  Doug is a series regular on VH-1's Best Week Ever.  He also makes recurring appearances on ABC's Jimmy Kimmel Live.  On the classic sitcom Friends, he had the nerve to hit on Jennifer Aniston.  He has his own half-hour special on Comedy Central, is a recurring character on The Sarah Silverman Program, and got Larry David in a headlock on HBO's Curb Your Enthusiasm.  He has his own documentary called Super High Me based on a joke from his standup act. It's available on DVD!  He also expresses his love of movies on Superdeluxe.com and in podcasts available on iTunes.
