David Wayne Spade(born July 22, 1964) is an American actor, comedian, and television personality. He is best known for his nasally and high pitched voice and his use of cutting and sarcastic one liners and his sometimes childish stage personality. He first became famous in the 1990s as a cast member onSaturday Night Live, and from 1997 until 2003 when he starred as Dennis Finch onJust Shoot Me!. He also starred as C. J. Barnes, along with Katey Sagal, James Garner and Kaley Cuoco on8 Simple Rules.

He currently stars as Russell Dunbar on the CBS sitcomRules of Engagement. He is also working with TBS on an [] animated series based on his filmJoe Dirt.

Early life Spade was born in Birmingham, Michigan, the son of Judith M, a writer and magazine editor, and Wayne M. Spade, [2][3][4] a sales representative. His brothers are Bryan and Andy Spade; Andy Spade is the husband of designer Kate Spade and CEO of Kate Spade New York. Spade attended Scottsdale Community College and briefly went on to Arizona State University, where he was a [5] member of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon fraternity. Spade performed standup at the university's long-running sketch comedy show,Farce Side Comedy Hour, on numerous occasions. In the mid-80s he also did standup in the Monday night comedy show at Greasy Tony's Pizza in Tempe, Arizona.

David Spade

Career With the help of friend and fellow comedian, Dennis Miller, he joinedSaturday Night Livein 1990 as a regular cast member and writer. While there his well-known sarcasm became popular, and his smart aleck characters in a number of sketches were hits. Some of them include: a flight attendant who bids a perceived-as-unpleasant "Buh-Bye" to each passenger upon disembarking; a receptionist for Dick Clark who, as a matter of policy, asks people indiscriminately "And you are?"; and the sarcastic "Hollywood Minute" reporter who communicates with celebrities by means of one-liners. Other characters include Christy Henderson from the Gap Girls, and Karl from the Karl's Video sketches. He also has done impressions of famous celebrities, such as Brad Pitt and Michael J. Fox. According to interviews with Spade, most of the material that he wrote early on was given to Dana Carvey to perform on the show. Due to his relatively low work rate, he was in danger of being fired as a performer, until theHollywood Minutesegment secured his position. Though most of the cast left in 1995, Spade stayed on the following year to help in the transition with the new cast. He then quit in 1996 citing "burnout" as the reason. Said Spade, "When I leave, it will be to ease the pressure, not to be a movie star. You can't stay there forever–it kills you inside. It ages you in dog years. It's a tough place." He returned to host an episode in 1998 and another in 2005. He recently also voiced a chihuahua in an animated short, written by Fred Wolf, in 2010. Spade's attempt at a film career met with success. Movies such asJoe DirtandDickie Roberts: Former Child Star were not very successful critically, although both made back their budget and were well received by the audience. (They were both written by Spade with Fred Wolf.) He worked with fellowSaturday Night Livecast member and friend Chris Farley in the moviesTommy BoyandBlack Sheep. The two were planning a third movie together when Farley died of a drug overdose at the age of 33. Although he received several offers to star in his own TV shows, he turned them down and joined the ensemble cast of Steven Levitan's office sitcomJust Shoot Me!,which ran for seven seasons from 1997 to 2003. He played to type as sarcastic receptionist Dennis Finch, which earned him an Emmy nomination and two Golden Globe nominations. Spade hosted both the Teen Choice Awards and SpikeTV's Video Game Awards in 2003. He voiced characters on several episodes ofBeavis and Butt-head,and produced his own TV seriesSammyin 2000. From 2002 to 2006 Spade regularly appeared in commercials for Capital One (with Nate Torrence) where he plays the employee of a fictional rival company whose policy toward honoring credit card rewards (and just about everything else) is "always no." In 2004 he joined the cast of8 Simple Rules,following the death of the sitcom's star, John Ritter. On September 5, 2003, Spade received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which is located at 7018 Hollywood Blvd. He was the host of the Comedy Central show,The Showbiz Show with David Spade,which began in September 2005. On the show Spade made fun of Hollywood and celebrities in a manner similar to his old "Hollywood Minute" segment onSNL.The Showbiz Show with David Spadewas canceled in October 2007 after [6] three seasons. Along with actors Elijah Wood and Gary Oldman, Spade is one of the voice talents forThe Legend of Spyro: A New Beginning, the sixth installment of the platform game seriesSpyro the Dragon. He provides the voice for Spyro's [7] dragonfly companion, Sparx. Currently, he stars as Russell Dunbar in the CBS comedy,Rules of Engagement.

Personal life Spade has one daughter named Harper with Playboy Playmate Jillian Grace. Spade confirmed his paternity on [8] September 3, 2008. Spade is very sensitive to light. The combination of bright lights on-set and working under sunlight while filming Black Sheepcaused permanent damage to his eyes. Spade says of his condition: "I have to wear a hat even indoors and flashes in particular freak me out. I even have to make them turn down the lights in the make-up trailers. I've [9] become such a pain in the butt with this light-sensitive thing, it's a wonder they don't just shoot me!"

8 Heads in a Duffel Bagis a 1997 black comedy film starring Joe Pesci and David Spade. It was the directorial debut of screenwriter Tom Schulman. In 1998 the film won the Brussels International Festival of Fantastic Film's Silver Raven award.

Plot Tommy Spinelli (Joe Pesci), is a wiseguy hired by a pair of dimwitted hit men to transport a duffel bag full of decapitated heads across the country to a crime boss (as proof of the deaths). While on a commercial flight, his bag is accidentally switched with that of Charlie Pritchett (Andy Comeau), a friendly, talkative, young American tourist who is going to Mexico to see his girlfriend Laurie (Kristy Swanson) and her parents (George Hamilton & Dyan Cannon). The film revolves around Spinelli harassing Charlie's friends Ernie (David Spade) and Steve (Todd Louiso) for information, while Charlie and Laurie attempt to get rid of their rather unfortunate luggage. The film ends with Charlie and Laurie bringing a severed head to the airport, in order to prove her father's innocence. Benny and Rico try to intervene, but end up getting arrested. It is revealed that Tommy and Charlie set them up, as Tommy departs to Hawaii. Steve goes insane by running around the airport, telling security guards that a head is his "best friend." During the credits, Charlie and Laurie get married with her mother and father present, Steve is seen in a strait-jacket,

Release

Critical reception The film on the whole was not critically well received. Although Roger Ebert praised Pesci's performance as being "the best thing in the movie; he's funny every moment he's on the screen", he remarked that the rest of the movie [1] underperformed as a comedy.Entertainment Weekly's Bruce Fretts was even harsher to the entire production, giving the movie a rating of 'F' and further stating that it "aims for dark farce but ends up playing more likeWeekend [2] at Bernie's VIII". [3] The film holds a rating of 11% (rotten) at Rotten Tomatoes based on 17 reviews.

Box office [4] The film was a box-office flop, earning just under $4 million in its entire theatrical run.
