Rondell Sheridan (456 words)
Rondell was only the second comedian (Jerry Seinfeld was first) that the Writers Guild of America granted a co-created by credit for their own situation comedy.
Rondell’s series, "Minor Adjustments" became the first and still the only television show in history to run original episodes on two networks, NBC and UPN, during the same television season.
Rondell’s also the host of the FOX Family Channel’s highest rated series, "Show Me The Funny." But even that has a strange cloud to it’s silver lining; the network has postponed production of future episodes simply because the re-runs are being enjoyed by similar numbers of Neilson families as the first time they air.

But Rondell is still not quite recognized for what he is: one of the great stand-up comedians of our generation.
Rondell was only the second comedian (Jerry Seinfeld was the first) to whom the Writers Guild of America granted a "co-created by credit" for their own situation comedy.
