Lennon returned to television as part of the ensemble cast of ABC’s short-run medical drama MDs. However, he found wider acclaim with Reno 911!, a mockumentary-style police comedy he co-created with former The State colleagues Kerri Kenney and Ben Garant. Debuting in 2003 on Comedy Central, the show featured Lennon as Lt. Jim Dangle, a flamboyant and devoted law enforcement officer. The series quickly became a cult favorite for its improvisational humor and satirical take on crime reality shows.
By 2004, Lennon was appearing in a range of supporting film roles, including parts in A Guy Thing, Le Divorce, and How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. He also began establishing himself as a screenwriter, co-writing successful studio comedies like Starsky & Hutch (2004), Taxi (2004), The Pacifier (2005), Herbie: Fully Loaded (2005), and Night at the Museum (2006).
In 2007, Lennon took on multiple roles—as co-writer, executive producer, and cast member—in the ping-pong-themed comedy Balls of Fury, directed by Ben Garant. He continued to land acting roles in notable films such as Hancock (2008) and I Love You, Man (2009). He also co-wrote the sequel Night at the Museum: Battle of the Smithsonian (2009).
Lennon's later film credits include minor roles in Cedar Rapids (2011), Bad Teacher (2011), and What's Your Number? (2011). In addition to screenwriting and acting, he has authored several comedic books, including a popular middle-grade series, further diversifying his contributions to the entertainment industry.
Thomas Lennon lives in Los Angeles with his wife, actress Jenny Robertson, and their son, Oliver. With a diversified career in acting, writing, and producing, Lennon has earned an estimated net worth of $4 million USD.
