Liam Sullivan, the comedian behind liamshow.com, is one of the most well-known video creators online. Ask any teenager if they have seen his "Shoes" video or his "Muffins" video and it's like asking anyone in their thirties if they've seen "The Goonies". And
people are still discovering him and freaking out.

Every video Liam posts gets instant attention. For example...

liamshow.com - YouTube

Liam's video "Shoes", with over 12 million views, won a People's Choice Award for Favorite User Generated Video in January of 2008.

Four of his videos are in the top 20 favorite comedy videos of all time. No other comedian has more than one video in that top 20 bracket.

Liam has reached a cult status, and the question asked
of him every day is, "When are you going to make
another video?"

Liam has 6 new videos completed and countless more
scheduled for producing and releasing on a weekly
basis. These videos will debut on his site,
liamshow.com. He's created a fan page, where fans can
log in, post comments, rate the videos, send in
pictures and start discussions. His goal is to funnel
all the attention he's getting from Facebook, Myspace
and YouTube to one site: liamshow.com, the home of
everything Liam does, with exclusive content, updates
and fan interaction.

With 57 million hits last year, liamshow.com has
enormous potential to attract more visitors, as Liam
consistently creates new content and builds on his
already immense following.

Liam Sullivan is the comic actor behind A Liam Show, a collection of funny short films, monologues, music videos and songs that has been compared to Chappelle's Show, Da Ali G Show and Little Britain. Liam writes, produces, directs, edits and stars in all of his own short films, with help from cinematographers Eduardo Cisneros, Rich Briglia, Neal Lett, Brandon Lawrence and David Fickas. He has taken A Liam Show to the Upright Citizens Brigade Theatre, the House of Blues and several colleges across the country.

One of Liam's most popular videos is the "Shoes" music video by Kelly, which has gone viral on MySpace and YouTube, spawning numerous fan remakes and turning Kelly into an internet rock star sensation. In 2006, YouTube staffers chose Liam's "Shoes" as one of the top 10 videos of the year and Entertainment Weekly listed it as one of the viral videos to watch. One of the re-postings of "Shoes" video has received over 18 million views on YouTube alone, and is the seventh most viewed video of all time on the site. Clips of the song have been played on "On-Air with Ryan Seacrest" on KIIS FM, on the "Kevin and Bean" show on KROQ, and by Jillian Barberie on the "Good Day LA" morning show. The song has been in the top 10 of iTunes Comedy since it debuted there. The "Shoes" video, now in rotaion on MTV and Fuse, just won the first ever People's Choice Award for best user-generated video of 2007.

While Kelly was the first to gain traction in mainstream media, Liam's other characters and videos, such as "Muffins" and "Dr. Ulee," are gaining a cult following all their own. Since he is constantly creating new ideas and videos, each A Liam Show is fresh and may feature new or evolving characters. "My goal is to put on a show that people will enjoy, with characters that are fun to watch. My material could be described as 'provocative,' or 'strange,' but it's comedy, so I'm really just aiming for 'hilarious,'" says Liam.
