About the show

Odd Job Jack chronicles the on-the-job misadventures of the perpetually unemployed Jack Ryder, a 25-year old Sociology grad whose higher learning has gotten him nowhere but in debt. In each original episode, Jack (voiced by Don McKellar) returns to Odd Jobs Unlimited and is assigned a new position. From corpse-in-a-terrorist-drill, to royal time-keeper, to king crab fisherman, there is simply no job too odd for this working-class stiff.

In this season’s premiere episode "Twenty-One, You're Dead", Jack works as a high-stakes croupier who is befriended by super-cool dealer Rod (Jason Alexander, Seinfeld) and introduced to the deadly world of “snuff poker”. In the second episode, Jack works as an archaeologist with an ex-girlfriend (Molly Parker, Deadwood) who is digging for Wu – an ancient matriarchal civilization. Other guest stars this season include Christian Slater (Pump up the Volume), Jerry Stiller (Seinfeld), John Goodman (Roseanne), Harland Williams (Dumb and Dumber), Tara Spencer-Nairn (Corner Gas), Don Lake (Best in Show) and Seán Cullen (The Seán Cullen Show).
