The comedian rose to fame for his crude pranks and shock humor, which influenced shows like ‘Jackass.’ Now he runs a farm in his native Canada and has returned to the screen with three documentaries that offer a glimpse into his new life

    I love Tom Green.

    I hope the man is doing better now. On tiktok he seemed to be livestreaming himself drinking a lot and getting really paranoid about nuclear war. I think at one point he mentioned moving to Patagonia to avoid it all.

      I agree, there are definitely better options than Patagonia

    I was actually on the Tom Green web show.

    Though, I never got to talk to him, I was put up on the screen behind him while he yapped on until the episode ended abruptly.

    Still though, it’s a neat story, and if helps me score a lot of pussy. I don’t know why my cat likes that story.

    I only ever really saw him in Road Trip, which was dismal, but I can respect that he was obviously doing whatever he wanted and didn’t care whether you thought it was funny or not. He certainly didn’t fit into the overall vibe.

    I just realised that reads like an obituary. RIP, Tom.

    I wonder if he’ll ever do that barrel roll.

    His soccer bit is still one of the funniest things I’ve ever seen.

    Freddy Got Fingered is one of the most underappreciated movies of all time, and I’m 95% sure he didn’t even want to make it. Glad to see Tom escaped the Hollywood bullshit and is living a pretty chill life.
