Stand-up comic Richard Jeni, a frequent guest on the Tonight show and the star of several HBO comedy specials, died of an apparently self-inflicted gunshot wound Saturday. Jeni was also the star of one of UPN's first sitcoms in 1995, Platypus Man, based on his award-winning HBO special. He played the host of a TV cooking show aimed at "any guy who ever tried to make tuna fish on toast and wound up in the burn unit with mayonnaise in his hair."
