Matt McCarthy and Nick Stevens are the Action Pack. They get haircuts, do laundry, play sports, eat, walk, shop, get a carwash, anything people do, but while these two do it, they talk endlessly about the movie you happen to be watching on AMC.

Citizen Reno

Co-Exec Producer - Director

It’s difficult being a person. That’s why there are comedians, to help you overcome your incompetence in buying a car, your terror of having your feet touched, to help you find the strength to accept your accelerating baldness or be man enough to discuss what might be just right for your wife in a lingerie store. A stable of America’s finest comedians tackled the little things that make humanity miserable.

Guests included Jeff Garlin, Laura Kightlinger and Orlando Jones.

Lost & Found
fX - 22 episodes
Exec Producer - Director

Nearly everyone has a longing about someone who once mattered and then fell off the radar. In the case of filmmaker Albert Maysles, it was a woman he barely knew in high school. Decades later he couldn’t forget the beauty in her eyes. His fantasy was to meet her on a train. So we set our detectives loose and found her, and meet on the train they did, resulting in an unforgettable experience for both of them, and a fascinating portal into two compelling life stories.

Lost & Found was a critically-acclaimed series that ran for three years.

Creator - Exec Producer Host

Over the course of an hour of music videos, I would show up in between and talk to people in a particular place or about a particular thing. It could be research into why people like to travel, but mostly hate to take local transportation, or a visit to a crowd of 3000 playing million dollar bingo at a Native American reservation, or a look at the nature of competition at the Winter Olympics in France, or an inquiry into the nature of fame at the Grammys.
