Biography from TheMovieDB

Bradley Harold Gerstenfeld, known professionally as Brad Garrett, is an American actor and stand-up comedian.  Garrett was initially successful as a stand-up comedian in the early 1980s. Taking advantage of that success in the late 1980s, Garrett began appearing in television and film in minor and guest roles. His breakthrough role was Robert Barone on the CBS sitcom Everybody Loves Raymond. The series debuted on September 13, 1996, running for nine seasons, during which Garrett was nominated for five Emmy Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy Series, winning three. He gave a sixth Emmy-nominated performance as Jackie Gleason in the television film Gleason (2002).  Garrett's other television roles include Eddie Stark on the Fox sitcom 'Til Death (2006 - 2010) and Douglas Fogerty on the ABC sitcom Single Parents (2018 - 2020). He served as creator and executive producer for Disney+'s Big Shot (2021 - 2022) with David E. Kelley and Dean Lorey. Garrett is also a prolific voice actor. He has had main roles in animated series such as Hulk Hogan's Rock 'n' Wrestling (1985 - 1986) and 2 Stupid Dogs (1993 - 1995). From 2006 to 2014, he played the Easter Island Head in the Night at the Museum trilogy. Garrett has had other voice roles in five Pixar films in addition to many for Disney Animation and other studios.  He remains prominent in stand-up comedy and owns Brad Garrett's Comedy Club at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, where he performs regularly.

About the Movie Section

Most data and links to images for the Movies section come from TheMovieDB (TMDB).

Additional data for Film Titles come from The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

At least one plug-in comes from IMDb.

Data are -- hey, it's a plural -- subject to the limitations of their sources. (For example, TMDB search results currently max out at 20.) I am limiting myself to free data sources for now. (No, a "free trial" is not free.)

While much of the above data are retrieved directly from outside APIs and other such sources, data from American Film Institute (AFI) and British Film Institute (BFI) were manually entered the old fashioned way into a MySQL database. Re BFI I took the following liberties:

  • I added "runners up" to Top 10 lists, treating them as ties where applicable and numbering them accordingly at the bottom of each list.
  • Regarding those polls wherein "franchise" movies were submitted as one project until BFI's policy changed to regard them separately, I treated them as ties and renumbered the affected lists accordingly (e.g. the Godfather films).

Regarding profile removals and data corrections:

  • If you would like your profile removed from this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's gone from their site, it should soon be gone from this site.
  • If you would like to correct movie data on this site, please contact the source of this data directly, TheMovieDB. My assumption is: once it's corrected on their site, it should soon be corrected on this site.
  • For additional corrections and profile removals, please e-mail The Open Movie Database (OMDb).

Filtering is applied here to film projects flagged as "adult" by TheMovieDB. Pending "popular demand" I am contemplating a login and profile system with preferences (such as whether to allow adult images to appear) and permissions (such as data entry).

Whereas the overall purpose of this website is to serve as a personal demo/portfolio/workshop of web and data skills, this Movies section is not meant to compete with or substitute for far more definitive movie websites.

Whether or not he still clings to an award which he won in 1986 as a film critic for his college's newspaper, Jeffrey Hartmann is not responsible for the texts of overviews and biographies supplied by external data sources.
