That same year he performed in his own HBO special, Vicious Circle and shot to pilots for a sitcom, although they were never picked up.

Cook’s popularity may have reached its summit when he embarked on a 30-day, 20 stop comedy tour of colleges known as Tourgasm, at the end of 2005. The next year he would headline Dave Attell’s Insomniac Tour and hosted the Teen Choice Awards with Jessica Simpson, who he would later star with in Employee of the Month. Along with his comedy, Cook has starred in a number of films which have steadily increased his exposure and celebrity. His first roles were in the 1990s, a small part in Mystery Men and opposite Dennis Rodman in the unfortunate Simon Sez.
