Paul has continued creating and starring in projects including the comedy series, International Ghost Investigators: Hollywood Division for DirecTV and co-created with Joey McIntyre, the sitcom Return of the Mac for PopTV . Paul's work as host writer for Neil Patrick Harris has earned him Emmy and Writer's Guild Awards.
