Zach Galifianakis / Davis Appreciation



Zach Galifianakis
Many comedians can only dream of being plucked off the comedy circuit and given their own television show. But for Zach Galifianakis, this dream came true when he was chosen to host and co-produce his own late night cable television show "Late World With Zach." His acting credits include the feature films "Out Cold," "Bubble Boy," "Corky Romano," "Heartbreakers" and "Below." For the small screen, his credits include "Apartment 2F" and "Boston Common."

Born and raised in Wilkesboro, NC, Zach, the middle of three children, would perform skits with his siblings in front of his parents. Zach recalls being funny early on in life and he truly believes that besides collecting firewood, this is the only thing he's really good at.

Galifianakis attended North Carolina State University pursuing a degree in Communications and Film. After failing the last course by two points, he got frustrated and decided to move to New York and give acting a try. Upon arriving in the big city, he took acting classes with various instructors. But it was a fellow actor/struggling comedian that recognized his talent and convinced him to do stand-up. Following that advice, Zach found himself doing stand-up in very peculiar situations. His stand-up career began in the back of "Hamburger Harry's," a restaurant in Times Square. He also recalls standing on stools in bars around the city, performing at various coffee houses on the Upper West Side and also trying to humor "drunk prom kids making out on the floor" aboard a cruise boat.

Galifianakis currently lives in Los Angeles.

Davis
The city coroner and Tru's boss, Davis is incredibly intelligent, as well incredibly socially inept. Preferring the company of the dead to that of the living, Davis provides Tru with valuable forensic information that gives her a jumping off point for her investigations. A bit of a loner, Davis longs to be a part of something bigger. What he doesn't know is that he already is.

He prolly wont be a main focus character but he'll prolly be like Grams on DC, where she was a cast member but wasn't in every episode.

Huge fan of Zach's! I'm really proud of him, he's worked hard to get where he's at these days.

I was glad that we got a little insight about Davis in tonight`s episode, which is of course that he has a thing for Tru. It was pretty obvious with how jealous he was when he saw that she was with Nick the firefighter. Plus i love his sarcastic comment about Nick. Hopefully Davis can break out of his social shell to ask Tru or someone else out soon.

Davis knows! I knew that he somehow knows about Tru`s ability. Hopefully this will be explored more in the upcoming episodes. I have a feeling that he might have the same ability.

I'm so glad there finally doing something more with him... and finally giving us some insight into why he doesn't question her actions nearly as much as he should.
