About Dennis Miller

Dennis Michael Miller was born on November 3, 1953 and is an American talk show host, political commentator, sports commentator, actor, and comedian with an estimated net worth of $70 million. Dennis Miller was born and raised in suburban Pittsburgh, where he went to first high school, then Point Park University as a journalism major. He worked a few odd jobs after graduating before entering the burgeoning Pittsburgh stand-up scene in the late 1970s. It wouldn’t be until 1985 that Miller would receive the break that would change his life.

American talk show host, political commentator, sports commentator, actor, and comedian Dennis Miller has an estimated net worth of $70 million dollars, as of 2023. Miller is listed as 21st on Comedy Central’s 100 greatest stand-up comedians of all time.

While performing a gig at the Comedy Store in 1985, Miller was scouted by Saturday Night Live producer Lorne Michaels. He became a cast member on the show, primarily as the anchor for “Weekend Update.” It was as the “Update” anchor that most of the country was introduced to Miller’s super-casual, sarcastic and reference-laden style. Though he would appear in sketches from time to time, Miller’s main priority at SNL was manning the “Update” desk.

In 1988, Miller taped his first HBO comedy special, called Mr. Miller Goes to Washington, which helped cement his status as one of the country’s top political comedians. Later that year, he released his first (and only) stand-up album, The Off-White Album. Its success led to another HBO special, Dennis Miller: Black and White, in 1990.

In 1992, Miller left SNL to host his own syndicated talk show. However, due to poor time-slot placement, the show was canceled the same year.Miller didn’t stay down for long, though. By 1994, he had started his own half-hour talk show at HBO, called Dennis Miller Live. Miller would interview one guest a week, but spend most of the time slot discussing politics and current affairs. The end of each episode culminated in a “rant” — a long monologue focused on a central topic and theme. Many of Miller’s rants were collected in four books: The Rants (1996), Ranting Again (1999), I Rant Therefore I Am (2000) and The Rant Zone (2001). The HBO series ran for nine seasons before being canceled in 2002.

In 2000, Miller also began a short — and some would say disastrous — stint as a color commentator for ABC’s Monday Night Football. He lasted only two seasons.

Following the attacks of September 11th, Miller — who was a self-described “libertarian,” but whose political comedy always leaned left of center — went through a major political change and became a conservative comic. By 2003, he began appearing on the FOX News shows Hannity and Colmes and The O’Reilly Factor, then got his own political talk show on CNBC. That show was canceled in 2005 due to poor ratings.

Over the next few years, Miller appeared on a number of short-lived TV projects: The FOX News show Half-Hour News Hour in 2006 (one season); the games shows Grand Slam on G4 (one season) and Amne$iac on NBC (one month), both in 2007; the sports show Sports Unfiltered on Versus (one month).

But, later in 2007, Miller’s career was reborn when he signed a deal to host a syndicated radio talk show. The show, called simply The Dennis Miller Show, broadcasts on 200 stations nationwide. The comedian’s show features interviews with politicians and celebrities. Miller also still contributes to FOX News.

Since March 9, 2020, Miller has hosted Dennis Miller + One, on RT America. The half-hour program airs twice weekly, and features interviews with sports and entertainment celebrities. Miller interviews a single guest for the entire half hour. The show replaces Larry King Now, on which Miller had been a frequent guest host. As of 2023, Dennis Miller’s net worth is estimated to be $70 million.
