After The Kids left television in 1995, Scott and the boys went on to write and star in their own feature film "BRAIN CANDY," which is a cult favorite today. Thompson also appeared as a regular for three years on the revolutionary comedy series The Larry Sanders Show as Brian, Hank Kingsley's assistant. In addition, he played a recurring role as Elliot the dog baker on NBC's Providence and then in 2001 produced and co-wrote the Showtime documentary "Uncle Saddam." During this time he made numerous guest appearances on other shows such as Politically Incorrect and Late Night w/ Conan O'Brien.
