Jake Burbage, (born in Willingboro, New Jersey on September 27, 1992) is an American actor who is best known for his role on Grounded for Life as Henry Finnerty. He has also guest starred in Sex and the City and was the voice of Benny in the Nickelodeon series Dora the Explorer.



Grounded for Life Career

Burbage played the youngest child on the show, Henry. He was often seen tagging along with his older brother Jimmy. Henry could be labeled the 'oddball' of the family. He would often get himself into strange but funny situations. Burbage left the show at the end of season 4 to move back home to the east coast. When the cancellation of Grounded for Life surfaced, it was rumored that he would appear for the series finale. He was however, referenced a few times, such as in the final episode, at his sister Lily's graduation, when his grandfather said 'Henry's around here somewhere'.

Recent Appearances

Burbage is now a contestant on the third season of a YouTube version of The Mole. A huge twist in this season is that two competitors (Paige and Julie) are twins, and are treated as one player by selecting which one of them competes in the challenges, and taking the questionnaire together. They will be eliminated together, win together or possibly even be the mole together. Jake won the first exemption on offer in the game. The series, entitled The Mole: Surf City, can be found on YouTube here. He recently won the competition, defeating both Evan (who was runner-up) and Ryan (who was the mole).
