Diedrich Bader was born on Christmas Eve, which may explain why we’d love to see his package! Alas, the actor/comedian tends to keep his clothes on while entertaining fans via the big and small screens. Whether lending his assets to movies (Ice Age, Miss Congeniality 2: Armed and Fabulous); the web (Kevin Pollak’s Chat Show); video games (Marvel Ultimate Alliance 3: The Black Order, Surf’s Up); or TV (Bones, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Star Trek: The Next Generation), Diedrich will blow fans… away! After attending the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, the tall glass of talent showed off his sense of humor in the cult classic comedies Office Space (1999), Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back (2001), and Napoleon Dynamite (2004). If that’s not funny enough, Diedrich popped up in the cinematic parodies Meet the Spartans (2008), Vampires Suck (2010), and The Starving Games (2013). Meanwhile, on the boob tube, the amusing dude could be seen on sitcoms (Center of the Universe, Cheers, The Exes, Outsourced, Veep) and heard on animated shows (Batman: The Brave and the Bold, Buzz Lightyear of Star Command, The Simpsons, The Zeta Project). Of course, Diedrich is best known for playing Oswald Lee Harvey on The Drew Carey Show (1995-2004) and Greg Otto on American Housewife (2016-2021). Yet Mr. Man prefers Mr. Bader’s shirtless turn on Better Things (2016-2022). In fact, we can’t think of a better thing than seeing the 6’2” performer’s bare chest — unless he loses his pants to expose the rest!
