Although he had a lot of comedy work under his belt before then (i.e. Laugh-In, Sonny And Cher), Murray Langston’s career hit a critical mass when he appeared on the Gong Show. He needed the money and didn’t want his friends to know, so he put a bag over his head, became “The Unknown Comic” and it took off, resulting in over 150 subsequent appearances on the show and a cult following.
He did a lot of behind the scenes and comedy work thereafter, producing Las Vegas’ first all-comedy show and produced a cable show “The Unknown Comedy Hour” for Playboy TV. He wrote a couple screenplays starring Linda Blair: “Night Patrol” and “Up Your Alley”, the former also starred Yakof Smirnoff and the latter starred Ruth Buzzi. After marrying and fathering a daughter, he divorced and retired from show biz to raise her. He is now coming out of retirement, appearing in the George Clooney flick “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind” and “Levity” with Billy Bob Thornton. He is also working on a series of comedy books and CD’s.

“Now” Pic fixed
Sorry everybody, for the past few years this site was run by somebody else and it kind of went downhill.
I’ve taken it back over and am slowly going through everything and getting it back into gear.
