Jerry Trainor

We all know Jerry Trainor is no stranger to wacky inventions. As Spencer on iCarly, he was the mad scientist behind a more than a few crazy gadgets (...Spaghetti Tacos, The Gummy Bear Lamp, A Fan of Hammers). But when we asked Jerry what he wants to invent in real life, he came up with a doohickey even more genius than the Spoon Hat! Introducing the world's newest (and weirdest) invention, the Jerry Tailor!

If there's one thing everyone loves, it's a pet pal by their side! And that holds true for Wendell & Vinnie actor Buddy Handelson. When we asked Buddy if he had any little critters at home, he gushed, "I do. I have a long-haired wiener dog. He is so cute, his name is Dudley and he is awesome."

From crazy movie theater employees to accident-prone uncles, Jerry Trainor has played some pretty kooky characters. But how would Jerry do taking on the role of king of the ocean? Well, after chatting with the Wendell and Vinnie star, we learned that he'd be pretty comfortable swimming in the seas. In fact, Jerry said that if he could live as an adorable animal, he'd choose a species that spends most of its days hanging in H2O!

Jerry Trainor is one seriously funny dude. But there's one thing we've noticed about the kooky roles that he plays on TV. They're all a little...how do we put this? Accident prone! Hanging out with Jerry's on-screen characters could be a little bit dangerous. So, we put together a list of DOs and DON'Ts for his newest counterpart, Uncle Vinnie from Wendell and Vinnie! If you ever find yourself hanging around Vinnie, here's what you should do, and here's what you should avoid at all costs...

DON'T: Leave open containers of glue (or anything sticky for that matter) around Vinnie. He's been known to glue his hands to his knees. Seriously. That happened.

It takes a certain kind of brain to invent stuff like spaghetti tacos and gummy bear lamps. And while that brain may be totally bonkers, it's the very best kind of bonkers. And it belongs to Jerry Trainor's kooky character, Spencer Shay. But that's not the first funnyman Jerry has played. He has spent practically his entire career acting outrageous!
