He has also been seen on MuchMusic, MTV, CMT, and The Comedy Network.
testimonials
Rounding out the late night show with astoundingly accurate self-deprecating jokes and impressively high energy, Adam Christie proved himself to be the best of the night. The comedian is well-aware that he looks like both "a poor man's John Mulaney" and "Cashier #2," but he has just as many scathing criticisms of himself as he does about the world around him. Christie is insightful, high-octane, and uproariously funny.
Exclaim
“Taking home the top prize of the evening, Adam Christie proved himself to be one of the most compelling acts in Canada. The comedian gave his set incredible energy and kept the audience shrieking through offbeat lines about parent lip-kissers, divorce and writing paid sex off on his taxes. Christie's career is on the rise, and his Top Comic victory is just validation of that. Keep an eye on this one.”
