Jeni burst onto the national scene in 1990 with his first Showtime Special "Richard Jeni: The Boy From New York City." The show received three Cable ACE Awards (the awards for cable excellence) nominations. Two years later, he followed up with his second one-hour concert for Showtime, "Richard Jeni: Crazy From The Heat", which was the highest-rated stand-up special in Showtime's history. During this period, Richard was also becoming a favorite guest on The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. <a hre
