Happy Birthday, Gary! May your day be filled with spontaneous laughter and improv-worthy surprises. Your legendary ability to turn everyday moments into comedic gold has inspired countless performers—though we're still waiting for you to teach us how exactly one improvises their way out of awkward family dinners.From founding The Groundlings and shaping comedy legends, you've proven that life's best scripts are unwritten. Thanks for teaching generations the art of "Yes, And..." even when life says "Nope." Here's hoping this year brings more standing ovations—and fewer scenes where you're stuck playing a talking cactus again. Cheers to another hilarious trip around the sun!
