10 Unexpected Breakout TV Characters

5. Terry (Reno 911!)

Simpsons Stupid TV Be more funny
Comedy Central

The star of one of the worst movies ever made, Bucky Larson: How to Be a Star, Nick Swardson has also had some incredible roles, few funnier than Terry on Reno 911!

The Comedy Central series was a semi improv show about the Sheriff's Department in Reno, Nevada. The premise was that the police were being followed around by a camera, presumably to make a reality TV series like COPS. Terry was one of the repeat criminals they'd run into, a flamboyant male prostitute who was always on roller skates, and all encounters with him went sideways.

Any time the deputies rolled up on Terry, you knew you were in for a treat.
