Definition
B.J. Novak (born Benjamin Joseph Manaly Novak) is an American comedian, actor, writer, director, and producer, best known for portraying Ryan Howard, the temp-turned-entrepreneur, on the NBC sitcom 'The Office' (2005–2013).
Novak has also created and starred in projects like the podcast 'The Joe Rogan Experience' guest spots and authored the New York Times bestselling children's book 'The Book with No Pictures', which hilariously weaponizes reading rules against parents.
Examples
Watching B.J. Novak roast his 'Office' co-stars is like seeing a temp finally get revenge on the whole corporate world.
My kid begged for 'The Book with No Pictures' by B.J. Novak, and now I'm legally obligated to yell 'BLABLA ZIG ZAG BLIP!' every bedtime.
B.J. Novak's deadpan delivery in that stand-up bit had the audience convinced he was actually Ryan Howard moonlighting as a comedian.
When B.J. Novak directs, expect awkward pauses that somehow turn into comedic goldmines.
