In 2004, Bullock joined the cast of the hit musical Hairspray, which was based on the film by John Waters. The musical follows Tracy Turnblad’s dream of performing on a Baltimore teen dance show. Bullock played several small roles in his first appearance and later returned to play Tracy’s dad in 2007.

On the small screen, Bullock lent his voice to a series of cartoon shorts called Queer Duck,

playing the title character. These shorts were shown on Showtime in conjunction with the popular dramatic series, Queer as Folk. As the cartoon’s theme song goes, Queer Duck is “everyone’s favorite male nurse.” He lives with his partner, Openly Gator, and interacts with his two close friends Oscar Wildcat and Bi-Polar Bear. Queer Duck was released as a feature film in 2006, featuring several musical numbers.
