One of the longest-running cast members in the 41-year history of Saturday Night Live<\/strong>, versatile comedian Tim Meadows<\/strong> crafted some of the series\u2019 most memorable characters during his 10 years on the popular late night show.<\/p>\n

Meadows also played the hilarious school principal in the hit comedy Mean Girls <\/strong>debuted in 2004 and co-starred with Adam Sandler and Chris Rock in the blockbuster comedies Grown Ups <\/strong>and Grown Ups 2<\/strong>. Most recently, Tim co-starred with Andy Samberg in Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping <\/strong>for Universal Pictures.<\/p>\n

Several years after appearing in a string of films based on Saturday Night Live sketches, including Cone Heads<\/strong> and Wayne\u2019s World 2<\/strong>, Meadows was offered his own chance at features. The 2000 release of Paramount\u2019s The Ladies Man<\/strong> gave the eponymous hero Leon Phelps the opportunity to bring his Courvoisier-drinking romantic adviser to the big screen. That same year, he left SNL to join NBC\u2019s prime-time line-up as a regular cast member on The Michael Richards Show, <\/strong>and in 2002, he joined the cast of the NBC sitcom Leap of Faith<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Meadows also co-starred in the Sony Pictures comedy Walk Hard: The Dewey Cox<\/strong> Story <\/strong>with John C. Reilly. <\/strong>Other films include Jack and Jill, Benchwarmers, Semi-Pro<\/strong> with Will Ferrell and Aliens in the Attic with Kevin Nealon and Ashley Tisdale. He was a series regular on The Bill Engvall Show<\/strong> and Glory Daze<\/strong> on TBS and is a regular correspondent on The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson<\/strong> on CBS and The Colbert Report<\/strong> on Comedy Central.<\/p>\n

Born in Highland Park, Mich., and raised in Detroit, Meadows studied television and radio broadcasting at Wayne State University before performing improvisational comedy at the Soup Kitchen Saloon. In 1985, Meadows relocated to Chicago, where he first joined Improv-Olympic, and then the legendary comedy troupe Second City<\/strong>. In 1991, Meadows achieved the dreams of comics nationwide when producer Lorne Michaels asked him to join SNL<\/strong> as a featured player.\u00a0Nominated for an Emmy\u00ae<\/strong> as part of the show\u2019s writing team that same month, he later made the transition to cast member status two years afterward.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
