JANINA GAVANKAR (actor)
Janina wants you to guess her ethnicity. You may have seen her on The L Word, as the East LA lothario Papi, or Babershop 1 and 2, Strong Medicine, Girlfriends, or other random things on her IMDb profile. And you definitely have NOT seen her in Stargate: Atlantis, My Boys, Factory, and the film Shattered, because they're not out yet, so don't lie after the show and say you "liked her work." You can talk to "her" on the interactive MSN search engine MsDewey.com, and you can download her at www.janinagavankar.com.

JOHN LOPEZ (writer)
Raised by wolves in the forests north of Los Angeles, John Lopez didn't learn the human art of language until 17. Because of his last name, he gained entry to Harvard University where he went vegan and experimented with lesbianism. Seeking to reconnect with his roots as a scavenger and pack animal, John decided to pursue a career in the entertainment industry. He found work in film development and production, but lacking the innate blood-thirst to become an agent or studio executive, John turned to writing because "it is easy."


CAROLINE PHO (actor)
Born in Virginia, Caroline is another kind of East-meets-West. She appeared in Carrie Underwood's music video Ever After for Disney's Enchanted as a spicy hot dog vendor who falls for a sweet salesboy.

DAVE WILDER (actor)
Dave was spawned in Oklahoma, and after putting in a year as a Sooner, decided that it wasn't the center of artistic nirvana that he'd imagined. So he attended a fancy shmancy conservatory in Milwaukee, WI, which he also didn't like, dropped out and finished up his degree while learning from the founder of ComedySportz, Dick Chudnow. Then he briefly worked with a professional improv group in Dallas/Tulsa called the Ad-libs for a year until he decided he was done with Middle America. So he packed up his bags and moved to Los Angeles, where he's been struggling ever since. He'd like to thank William Shatner for having a roast so that he could book a commercial with Charles to recruit him into OPM. Other commercial credits include Pizza Hut, Ford Escape and Coors Light.
