When asked if he could only do one:
acting or stand-up, he replies,
“That’s like asking me who do
I like better: Pacino or De Niro?”
tally challenged, all over Staten
Island. He says having the day job
also keeps one humble.
“All of your great TV characters
are blue-collar, north east characters,” he explains. “Guys like
Ralph Kramden and Archie Bunker. I’m like the common man, like
Rodney Dangerfield was. Rodney
didn’t make his first movie until he
was 58, so he’s my inspiration.”
With a number of projects in the
works, including the release of
Mall Cop 2 and starring in “Don’t
Know Jack”, a new series on Hulu,
it looks like his days behind the
wheel are over. This will be the
first time he’s ever been able to
do comedy full-time. “Could you
imagine me doing comedy fulltime? 2015 is going to be my
year!”
In “Don’t Know Jack”, Vic plays a
retired cop in his mid-fifties who
is living with a young, smart-aleck guy in his thirties. The show,
which somewhat plays off of The
Odd Couple theme, takes place
in North Jersey and furthers his
identity as a regular guy, the every
man, or, as Vic puts it, the working
class zeroes.
