Kurt Braunohler
Senior Detective Terry Seattle is back. Along with his two celebrity guest stars, Jason Bateman and Maya Rudolph, he is on a mission to figure out...who killed Santa?  But here's the catch: Bateman and Rudolph aren't being given the script. They have no idea what's about to happen to them. They will have to improvise their way through the case.

Kurt Braunohler is a comedian, actor, and writer who once hired a skywriter to write "How Do I Land?" in the sky over LA. In features, Kurt can be seen in Judd Apatow's feature "The Big Sick" for which he was the on-set writer, and will appear in the upcoming Charlize Theron / Seth Rogen feature "Flarsky" for which he was also the on-set writer. Kurt's television appearances include but are not limited to: Lady Dynamite, Bob's Burgers, The New Girl, @midnight, Another Period, The Kroll Show, Drunk History, Deadbeat, Adam Ruins Everything, and Chelsea Lately. In stand-up, Kurt's one hour stand-up special, "Trust Me," premiered on Comedy Central, and he regularly appears on late night sets on Conan, The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon, The Late Show with Seth Meyers and The Late Late Show with James Corden. He has been featured in Variety's annual prestigious "10 Comics To Watch" list and is the co-creator and co-host of the continuously sold-out variety show "Hot Tub" for 13 years with Kristen Schaal. He jet-skied from Chicago to New Orleans once... for charity.

"A charismatic comedian with a flair for the absurd." - New York Times "Kurt Braunohler is the closest thing we have to a real-life Willy Wonka." - Vice "Not only a singular talent, but an inimitable spirit." - LA Weekly.
