I know what you guys are thinking... This is the Official Alex Winter homepage, who the hell is this guy? And, for that matter, who the hell is Tom Stern? Ahem. Tim has earned his place along side of these two in our halls of excellence. Not yet convinced? Well, here are just a few of his amazing credentials.

• was The Hideous Frawgman

Now, I know what you guys are thinking: "Doesn't this guy have a career of his own?" For your information, Tim has just wrapped up writing a children's movie that he did on his own, thank you very much (based on a story by another guy and directed by someone else...). No matter how much Tom and Alex don't want to acknowledge the existence of the aforementioned Mr. Burns, we here at Freekland took it as our personal responsibility to let you know that Tim Burns is a real person with real feelings and not just an anagram for "Who's wearing my cravat?".

Tim began his writing with CBC Radio Comedy, and moved on to TV shows including "The Jim Henson Hour", MTV's "The Idiot Box", and Nelvana's "Sam and Max". Along with Tom Stern, Tim wrote the hilarious and popular "Monkeyed Movies" for TBS Superstation, featuring live chimpanzees acting out scenes from famous movies. Tim went on to co-create, produce and head write "The Chimp Channel", a half-hour series on TBS. Tim's feature work includes co-writing the films "Freaked" and "An American Werewolf in Paris". Most recently, Tim won both a Canadian Comedy award and a Writer's Guild award for the screenplay to "Jacob Two Two Meets the Hooded Fang", adapted from Mordecai Richler's popular children's novel. Tim also composed the original songs for the film, one of which was nominated for a Genie (the Canadian equivalent of an Oscar a really small one).
