His success on Portlandia opened the door to a career in Hollywood and he ended up moving to Los Angeles where he would star in a wide variety of television shows on Comedy Central and he would eventually break into voice acting.<\/span><\/p>\n

Influenced By Lucille Ball<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

In a recent interview, Funches talked about the influences on his career and he cited Lucille Ball as being one of the top comedians who has shaped his comedy and ideology over the years.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I Love Lucy<\/a><\/em>\u00a0was kind of my introduction to the world of comedy in general. And when you look at the history of Lucille Ball, and the work that she did for women in Hollywood, having her own production company, and also showing an interracial marriage on TV in the \u201950s, to me, she\u2019s just one of my biggest influences overall as a human being. That’s what it means to be a professional and what it means to stand up for yourself.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Besides Lucille Ball, Funches also cited Dave Chappelle as one of these top comedy influences and it\u2019s easy to see why since Dave Chappelle\u2019s \u201cChappelle Show\u201d was one of the top comedies shows of the early 2000s and reruns of the show are still airing today.<\/span><\/p>\n
