Last year Oswalt was a jack of all TV trades: Narrating a comedy (The Goldbergs), appearing on a drama (Justified), guest starring on multiple sitcoms (Two and a Half Men, Parks and Recreation, Brooklyn Nine-Nine, Portlandia), starring in a surreal live-action dramatic comedy (The Heart, She Holler), voicing both adult (Axe Cop) and children's (Word Girl) cartoons and more. He even rounded out 2013 helping program an entire TV network (TCM). "In 2014 I plan to kick it up a notch by appearing on shows which no longer exist," he says. "Just got a table draft of a new episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show.  I play Ted Baxter's krav maga instructor."
