Dan Harmon is the Emmy winning creator/executive producer of the comedy series Community as well as the co-creator/executive producer of Adult Swim’s Rick and Morty.

Harmon’s pursuit of minimal work for maximum reward took him from stand-up to improv to sketch comedy, then finally to Los Angeles, where he began writing feature screenplays with fellow Milwaukeean Rob Schrab. As part of his deal with Robert Zemeckis at Imagemovers, Harmon co-wrote the feature film Monster House. Following this, Harmon co-wrote the Ben Stiller-directed pilot Heat Vision and Jack starring Jack Black and Owen Wilson.

Harmon has an extensive slate of upcoming projects including History’s Great Minds, on which he serves as both the host and executive producer, and Seeso’s HarmonQuest, a fantasy comedy adventure series that melds live action comedians, a live studio audience, and animated sequences.

Harmon and Schrab founded Channel 101, an untelevised non-profit audience-controlled network for undiscovered filmmakers – many of whom used it to launch mainstream careers, including the boys behind SNL’s Digital Shorts. Harmon, along with Schrab, partnered with Sarah Silverman to create her Comedy Central series, The Sarah Silverman Program, where he served as head writer for the first season.

Harmon went on to create, write and perform in the short-lived VH1 sketch series Acceptable TV before eventually creating the critically acclaimed and fan favorite comedy Community. The show originally aired on NBC for five seasons before being acquired by Yahoo which premiered season six of the show in March of 2015.  In 2009, he won an Emmy for Outstanding Music and Lyrics for the opening number of the 81st Annual Academy Awards. 

Along with Justin Roiland, Harmon created the breakout Adult Swim animated series Rick and Morty. The show premiered in December of 2013 and quickly became a ratings hit. Season three of the series is currently in production.

In 2014, Harmon was the star of the documentary Harmontown, which chronicled his 20-city stand-up/podcast tour of the same name. The film premiered at the SXSW Film Festival and was released theatrically in October of 2014. 

Through his production company Starburns, Harmon served as executive producer for the critically acclaimed animated feature film Anomalisa. After winning the Grand Jury Prize at the 2015 Venice Film Festival, the film was distributed by Paramount Pictures. Anomalisa has garnered numerous nominations and awards including an Oscar nomination for Animated Feature Film.

Spencer Crittenden is a writer/producer from Moorpark, California. Growing up in the shade of Hollywood, Spencer Crittenden toiled in the back rooms of an Apple Store until a freak podcast appearance transformed Crittenden from audience member to podcast regular on Harmontown, a liquor fuelled, rant-soaked two-hour weekly comedy show in Hollywood's Meltdown Comics.

After pairing up with the titular Dan Harmon, Crittenden entered the industry as a personal assistant to the show runner for Community's 5th season. In addition to soaking up the story-breaking process of the writer's rooms, his acting career began with a role opposite Brie Larson in Community, followed by a part on Brooklyn Nine Nine, before ascending to co-lead alongside Harmon onscreen for the History Channel comedy series Great Minds.

His podcast presence took him from small time Dungeon Master, running the Harmontown crew through live Dungeons & Dragons games onstage, to live comedy performer on the show's live tour of the United States, becoming a documentary subject on Neil Berkeley's Netflix tour-doc Harmontown, and finally to translating the podcast's popular live-roleplaying segment into the Seeso hit HarmonQuest, a unique hybrid comedy series featuring fantasy cartoon animation melded with real roleplaying in front of a live audience.

Jeff B. Davis is an actor and comedian from Los Angeles. His TV credits include Whose Line Is it, Anyway?, Happy Family, The Sarah Silverman Show and Drew Carey's Green Screen Show .

His career began at age four, starring as Linus in a terribly ill-advised, all-children production of You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown at the Goundlings Theater. On opening night, Jeff vomited all over his director, then turned and took the stage. At age nine, Jeff was cast as Louis in Yul Brynner's final production of The King and I, which toured nationally and closed on Broadway when Jeff was 11, after nearly 800 vomit-free performances.

In high school Jeff began improvising with Los Angeles ComedySportz, eventually learning the skills he'd later need as a frequent guest on the hit television show Whose Line is it, Anyway?  Jeff spends many nights of the year performing live with Whose Line stars all over North America. He can also be heard on the highly-acclaimed, deeply weird Harmontown podcast with NBC's Community creator Dan Harmon. Listen at your own risk.
