Career: Samberg began making comedy videos with childhood friends Akiva Schaffer and Jorma Taccone. Collectively they are known as the comedy troupe The Lonely Island. Andy's big break came in 2005 when Saturday Night Live (SNL) employed him as a cast member. Akiva and Jorma joined as writers and they went on to collaborate on SNL hip-hop parody video Lazy Sunday, which became a hit on YouTube, and box-office flop Hot Rod (2007). Samberg left SNL in 2012 to concentrate on making films. His first film after SNL was opposite Adam Sandler in box-office flop That's My Boy (2012). He has had more success on the big screen voicing characters in animated films Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs (2009) and its 2013 sequel and Hotel Transylvania (2012). He returned to the small screen in 2013 to star in sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine, for which he won a Golden Globe in 2014.

Career: Braugher's professional career began on stage at the New York Shakespeare Festival. He also trod the board in Washington DC before TV came calling. His first small screen role was in a Kojak TV movie - the first of many police-orientated projects for the actor. He made a bigger splash in his big screen debut, Glory, in 1990, but it was the TV series Homicide: Life on the Street that made him a star. He spent five years playing the self-righteous Detective Frank Pembleton before leaving the show in 1998, although he returned to the character in Homicide: The Movie in 2000. Other TV productions have included a two-year stint in crime drama Hack, miniseries Thief, the drama Men of a Certain Age and sitcom Brooklyn Nine-Nine. He also had a brief but recurring role in House. On the big screen Braugher has appeared in Primal Fear, City of Angels, The Mist and Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer.
