Conniff also wrote and performed satirical bits for the second and final season of FX Network's political sketch show "Totally Biased with W. Kamau Bell". Like Michael J. Nelson and Co., Conniff also frequently provides witty comments on his Twitter and FaceBook page. In a 2012 stand-up comedy act for Top Story! Weekly, Frank revealed that he had been raised Catholic but no longer was of that religion. Instead of being an Atheist, he chose to put his belief in a fictional God. Frank also revealed that he had been sober for 27 years.[2] In fall of 2014, Frank appeared as the title Frankenstein's monster-based character in the music video comedy short The Frank along with other MST3k members. Later that same year, Frank, Trace and Joel appeared during a short which had them recounting the highlights of their personal experience with Thanksgiving and it was shown in-between the bumpers for Turkey Day '14. In 2015, Frank began appearing in the traveling live movie-riffing show The Mads are Back, with Trace Beaulieu.

After his departure from MST3K, Conniff went on to become executive story editor for the popular ABC series Sabrina, the Teenage Witch. He made a few on-air appearances on the show, most notably as "Rootie Kazootie", a baby-turned-adult due to Sabrina's wishing spell. He later showed up as a writer and later as head writer on the ill-fated Nickelodeon TV series Invader Zim, even making a few cameo appearances before departing from that show as well, marking the second TV show that he has been associated with that was cancelled due to conflicts with station management over content and creative direction, and the second show that achieved cult status following its cancellation. In the summer of 2005 Conniff provided the voice for legendary cowboy Buffalo Bill Cody in two episodes of The Radio Adventures of Dr. Floyd. Currently, Conniff hosts Cartoon Dump, a monthly comedy/music revue that ends by showcasing some of the worst cartoons of all time, at the Steve Allen Theatre in Los Angeles. Recently, fellow MST3K alum Joel Hodgson joined the cast, creating his own puppet, "Dumpster Diver Dan." Cartoon Dump is available as a podcast on http://www.cartoonbrewfilms.com.
