A career breakthrough came in 1992 when he was named Best Male Standup at the American Comedy Awards. Engvall’s first role as a series regular came soon after when he was cast on the ABC series Delta, starring Delta Burke. However, the show only lasted one season, and Engvall resumed touring comedy clubs and making occasional television appearances until 1996, when he was cast in the NBC version of The Jeff Foxworthy Show with fellow comedian and best friend Jeff Foxworthy. Signed by Warner Bros.

Engvall released the first in a series of hit comedy albums, Here’s Your Sign in 1996, based on his stage signature. The album was certified Platinum and reached No. 5 on the Billboard Country album chart, thanks in part to the single and video of the same title on which he collaborated with country singer Travis Tritt. Eight more comedy albums followed, including 1998’s Dorkfish and 2009’s Aged and Confused. He also attended the 2011 NASCAR After The Lap event in Las Vegas.

Engvall began a new chapter in his career on June 6, 2011, taking over as host of the revived Lingo on GSN. According to an interview in American Profile magazine, he said he jumped at the chance to host the show, citing the fun his friend Foxworthy had hosting Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?. Engvall was a fan of Lingo when it aired a few years prior before it ended in 2007, admitting his wife still beat him to answers. When asked if Foxworthy Pals or Larry The Cable Guy were planned to appear on Lingo, he replied, “You never know! I would love to have them on the show because that would be awesome. I would really like to dig that.

Bill Engvall dances with the stars

Engvall was announced in 2013 as a contestant on the 17th season of Dancing with the Stars with professional dancer Emma Slater. In the first week, Engvall danced the Foxtrot and received a score of 18. The second week was the Latin week and he saw higher scores from the judges receiving a 21 for his Jive. And in the third week of competition, he saw his highest score of 24 with a Paso Doble to the Lone Ranger theme song.

Throughout the rest of the series, the judges generally placed Engvall and Slater at the bottom of the rankings, but a huge fan base kept them in the competition, resulting in more successful contestants, for example. Christina Milian, Brant Daugherty, Snooki, Elizabeth Berkley and Leah Remini were rejected instead. Engvall and Slater reached the final on November 18, along with Amber Riley, Jack Osbourne and Corbin Bleu. Both finished in 4th place.
