Dennis Leary has provided fans with outrageous comedy routines for over 20 years. Leary is a Golden Globe and Emmy Award-nominated actor, comedian, writer and director whose rants have entertained audiences since his days working the Boston comedy-club circuit in the 1980's.

He last toured in 1997 and stared in a smash hit one man show, No Cure For Cancer, which became the highest grossing comedy album of all time.

A Priest, A Rabbi and A Minister, the new animated comedy starring Lenny Clarke as the Priest (Rescue Me), Larry Miller as the Rabbi (Pretty Woman, The Nutty Professor, Law and Order, and Mad About You) and Adam Carolla as the Minster, premiered on Crackle.com today. Hold on to your prayers books and pray for redemption because after you watch Crackle’s new show, you might feel a little dirty. The show is the brainchild of actor-comedian Larry Miller, who wrote the script and recruited Adam Carolla and Lenny Clarke to be in it with him. Miller set the scene in a dive bar and gave the characters permission to tell some truly scandalous stories. Fans of religious jokes and blue humor have found their dream show.
