Comedian Artie Lang is best known as having informally inherited the role of the tubby, prat-falling sidekick in vehicles for Saturday Night Live alums, which was occupied by Chris Farley before his death in 1997.
More restrained than Farley, but of similar build and acquaintanceship, Artie Lang has rode his appearance and his exasperated comic deliveries to a handful of film credits and a regular gig on Howard Stern's radio show.
Born in Union, NJ, on October 11, 1967, Lang was a prankster from a young age and was held back from graduating high school with the rest of his class. Lang had the last laugh when he scored a recurring role on Fox's Mad TV from 1995 to 1997. After leaving that show, Lang began capitalizing on his friendship with SNL veteran Norm MacDonald, first appearing in MacDonald's revenge comedy Dirty Work (1998) (in which Farley also appears), then working with the comic on his ABC sitcom Norm, also known as The Norm Show. The real comparisons to Farley inevitably came when he appeared opposite David Spade, former partner of Farley, in the 1999 comedy Lost and Found, in which he was required to perform many of the indignities that Farley once performed. Lang has also popped up in such films as Mystery Men (1999) and The Bachelor (1999). ~ Derek Armstrong, All Movie Guide.
