Starting Over
NBC

When the ladies of the Starting Over House need to learn about communication and sharpen their listening skills, they are brought to IO West to participate in an Improv Workshop.  Jonathan took the stage with the ladies and taught them a little bit about….blah, blah blah.  Basically it was some good old fashion reality TV.

In this national spot, directed by David McNamara, Jonathan plays a very excitable football fan that doesn’t like to lose…or move around a lot.

"Pinky's Palace" – Mervyns

This might be the easiest commercial Jonathan has ever shot.  All he had to do was pretend to be sleeping in a chair and wear a pink boa.  (Just a normal Saturday night for him.)

 

"Stands For" – Home Depot

In this national spot for Home Depot Jonathan is a Home Depot rep, showing off the many splendid wonders of a door.  “It opens...it closes...it opens...”

"Bows" – Tri-Bond

This was Jonathan’s first commercial for a board game.  What do a cute little dog, a statue of cupid and a violinist have in common?  They were all in this commercial with Jonathan…oh and they all have bows!
