about scott watson
Scott Watson is a New York-based commercial actor known for countless national commercials throughout the years, recently with Grammarly’s Underwater Office ad campaign and a new and hilarious GoDaddy commercial spotting Scott in yet another mullet wig.
Maybe he would book more work if he just grew his hair into a mullet, but Scott refuses based on principle. Scott’s standards may be arbitrary and random, but he is rock-solid in his opinion that he shouldn’t have a mullet, no-one should, how is it popular again HOW?
Scott’s signature mustache can also be found in Duolingo’s “Living With Lily,” sitcom, playing Lily’s Dad in every episode of Season One.
Scott’s mustache has also taken a more sinister turn when Scott Watson starred as Richard Cottingham the Times Square Killer in Netflix’s Crime Scene: The Times Square Killer.
Scott would like to thank his mustache, the hardest working mustache in show-business, his wonderful partner Amanda Lea Mason, my Rep Gina at DDO who is perhaps the greatest agent of all time and his senior chihuahua Peanut who only has one tooth and enjoys spending his time eating and farting into couch pillows.
