His television specials quickly secured his reputation as one of the funniest people in the country, but he was also busy creating his own TV series, a sitcom called CORNER GAS. It became an instant hit with unprecedented ratings and numerous accolades, including an International Emmy Award nomination, and was named "Funniest Show on TV" by TV Guide readers.

In 2013, Brent was honoured with a Queen Elizabeth II Diamond Jubilee Medal for his contributions to community and country. That same year Brent’s first feature film entitled NO CLUE was released. The highly anticipated feature film return to Dog River, CORNER GAS: THE MOVIE, went on to receive a special Golden Screen Award at the 2016 Canadian Screen Awards.

Re-imagined by creator and star Brent Butt, an all-new animated version of the iconic comedy franchise entitled CORNER GAS: ANIMATED debuted in 2018. The animated series immediately became the #1 rated show in the history of Canada’s The Comedy Network and a popular mainstay on streamer CRAVE TV. Brent and the series have won multiple Canadian Screen Awards and Leo Awards, including Best Animated Program, Best Performance, and Best Animation Writing. Most recently Brent’s first novel, HUGE, debuted to great fanfare, immediately becoming the #1 Fiction Bestseller in Canada. With Brent performing, writing, executive producing, and even directing, there is little doubt the future holds many untold achievements for one of Canada’s brightest stars.

Born in Tisdale, Saskatchewan, BRENT BUTT discovered early that being funny was a good way to get attention. Brent honed his comedy in school and at the age of 20 moved to the city to pursue a career in stand-up. Within months he was headlining top clubs in Toronto and, within a couple years, he was touring internationally and appearing at major festivals.
