Later, he starred in his own hit series on Comedy Central, Tough Crowd with Colin Quinn. Since then, Quinn has lent his unique comic take to a series of successful one-man shows on Broadway, including Colin Quinn: An Irish Wake, My Two Cents, Unconstitutional, and the recent New York Story. His Colin Quinn: Long Story Short, which was directed by Jerry Seinfeld, was recorded and aired as a stand-up special on HBO.
In addition to his stage and television success, Quinn has starred on the big-screen in Grown Ups and Grown Ups 2 (opposite Adam Sandler), in A Night at the Roxbury, and most recently as Amy Schumer’s father in Trainwreck.
