'''Jason Jansen''' (born '''Jason William Jankowski''' [[October 12]], 1975-) is an American actor. Since "Jankowski" was considered potentially too ethnic for the time, his mother's maiden name was used as his screen name. In addition to playing [[Tommy Kennedy]] at the age of twelve, he did numerous commercials, voice overs, appearances in print advertisements, and played "Roger" in a fourth season episode of ''Highway to Heaven'' called "The Whole Nine Yards." <br />
<br />
Jankowski currently works for ABC Ad Sales in [[New York City]], listens to Pearl Jam, and likes watching professional football and baseball.<br />

==Notes==<br />
* <strike> The Tommy Kennedy segments have been in rights limbo and not available for DVD inclusion precisely because nobody knows what the heck happened to Jason Jansen, where he is, or how to contact him. Of course, the matter hasn't been helped by the fact the [[fandom]] thought he was Jason Jan''son'' for years....</strike><br />
<br />
* Jason Jansen's only other known acting credit was for a ''Highway to Heaven'' episode called "The Whole Nine Yards," in the role of Roger. The fourth season was never put on DVD, but the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-5FhxPRXhqw&feature=youtu.be&t=13m26s episode is viewable on YouTube].<br />
<br />
* Jansen resurfaced in early 2013, doing an interview where it turns out he grew up and got a job and basically is just an ordinary dude. This is actually quite an impressive accomplishment for someone who did any amount of professional acting as a child.<br />
