"Funniest Comedian JIM J. BULLOCK vs RODGER BUMPASS"

James Jackson Bullock (born February 9, 1955), sometimes credited as Jim J. Bullock or Jm J. Bullock, is an American actor and comedian of stage, television, and motion pictures. Bullock was born in Casper, Wyoming, and raised in Odessa, Texas (although he is listed as an alumnus of Natrona County High School (Casper, Wyoming)), and was raised in a Southern Baptist home and as a youth, planned to become an evangelical Christian minister. He received a music scholarship to attend Oklahoma Baptist University in Shawnee, Oklahoma, but left school without graduating. Credited as "Jm J. Bullock" because there was another "Jim Bullock" in the actors union, Bullock became a notable entertainment figure in the 1980s when he co-starred on the sitcom Too Close for Comfort as Monroe Ficus and was a regular guest on John Davidson's updated version of the game show Hollywood Squares; Bullock occasionally substituted for Davidson as host. He also appeared as a semi-regular on Battlestars.
