Wow...this really is tough...hard to narrow down to just 5... Here's mine: 1) Bill Murray 2) Adam Sandler 3) Chris Elliott 4) Jack Black 5) Paul Reubens I like sooo many more, but when I think of it, sometimes I like only one or two things they have done, or like them as part of their original ensemble (ie Kids in the Hall or Mr. show) but not so much on their own... The above 5 are people I see EVERY movie, tv apperence, etc. they have done...and will do so for a long while to come! No females made my top 5...but If I had to, probably Amy Poehler or Tracy Ulman would be at the top of my "comedic acctresses" list. My all time favorite actress is O-Lan Jones...who can sometimes be very comedic!! Good thread! --John
