Andy Dick

Andy Dick (born 21 December 1965) is an American television and film actor. He is best known for his roles on TV sitcoms, including NewsRadio and Less Than Perfect.

Dick was born in Charleston, South Carolina. He was adopted at birth by Allen and Sue Dick. His surname at birth was Thomlinson.

He currently portrays the character "Owen Kronsky" on the ABC sitcom Less Than Perfect.

His sexuality is debated in gossip circles. He was once quoted on an E! television special in which he said, "I'm tri-sexual; I'm willing to try anything."

Always one to make a joke out of everything and everyone he could, Dick--while introducing singer Deborah Cox at a music awards show he was hosting--cracked, "Andy Dick, Deborah Cox, I wonder if we're related".

He currently is featured on his own show, MTV's The Assitant, a clever parody of reality television, namely [{Donald Trump]]'s recent hit The Apprentice, which is where several aspects of Dick's own show, including its title and the "firing" process, draw their inspiration from. In the show, several naive young people, who believe that they are participating in a completely legitimate reality show, compete to become Andy Dick's personal assistant. They are assigned the most inane of tasks and Dick's staging of the show, including the outcomes of the constestants' tasks, allows for uncomfortably comedic situations comparable to Fox's My Big Fat Obnoxious Fiance. To date, the show has spoofed themes and scenes from The Apprentice, The Bachelor, and Survivor.
