Kyle Bornheimer (born September 10, 1975) is an American actor known for his role on the American sitcom Worst Week on CBS.

Life and career

Bornheimer attended high school at Marian High School in Mishawaka, Indiana, graduating in 1994. He also went to grade school at St. Monica School in Mishawaka and graduated in 1990. Kyle is a founding member of The Curtainbox Theatre Company.

With a string of national commercials, Bornheimer established an "always on TV" reputation with 30-second spots for such national accounts as Geico, Staples, Coors Light, Imodium, Stanley and T-Mobile.[1]

Landing the lead of Sam Briggs on Worst Week, which has since been cancelled, was a breakthrough role for Bornheimer, a newcomer, whose short film and TV career spans less than five years. Bornheimer was reportedly described by one critic as "the new Bob Newhart".[2]

He starred on the TV series Romantically Challenged. The series premiered on ABC on April 19, 2010, but ABC officially canceled the series on May 16, 2010. He was also featured in an episode of the sitcom Better Off Ted.

More recently, Bornheimer starred in the NBC sitcom Perfect Couples, which was also canceled.
