Who do you think are the 10 most underrated celebrities?

1. Amy Davidson She's gorgeous and much better looking than Kaley Cuoco.
2. Brent Butt Most Americans have probably never heard of this brilliant star and creator of Corner Gas.
3. Petula Clark my favorite singer of all time
4. Reba McEntire She may be known for her singing, but it's a shame her TV show never won any Emmys.
5. Joanna Garcia She deserves better than Welcome to the Captain.
6. Poppy Montgomery one of Hollywood's most beautiful actresses yet she never makes any best lists
7. Lorne Cardinal He does a great job playing an inept police officer on Corner Gas.
8. Beverley Mitchell she was great on 7th Heaven.
9. Stephen Collins the patriarch of TV's best family drama
10. Anthony LaPaglia He should be winning an Emmy every year on WAT, yet he's only been nominated once.

I love me my Brent Butt.

Mikado · 03-04-2008, 12:03 AM

interesting list Cats....especially the Corner Gas stars (And I agree Brent is a genius)

I agree that Amy is pretty (though I disliked the character she played on 8SR), but better than Kaley? I don't know about that.

I agree; he has Jack Malone down to a T. Those eps of CSI and WAT that had Jack and Gil Grissom teaming up were some of the greatest TV ever.

I hear that!

KurtfromPitts · 03-10-2008, 06:01 PM

In no particular order: Justin Berfield, Janine Turner, Ted McGinley, Candace Cameron-Bure, Wendy Phillips, Karen Duffy, Lori Loughlin, all I could think of.

HuntingtonM15 · 03-10-2008, 06:47 PM

Catherine Keener
Lili Taylor
Emile Hirsch
Peter Sarsgaard
Patricia Clarkson
Marcia Gay Harden (she has an Oscar, but is definitely still underrated)
Mira Sorvino (again with the Oscar thing)
Marisa Tomei (Oscar thing one more time)
Brenda Blethyn
Jena Malone

I so didn't realize this was on the general sitcoms board.

Classicshowsgurl15 · 03-11-2008, 02:11 AM

1. Tony Danza
2. Tim Daly
3. Michael J. Fox
4. Fred Savage
5. Dick Van Dyke
6. Fred MacMurray
7. Stephen Collins
8. Bob Saget
9. Ron Howard
10. Matthew Broderick

Some of them may not be that underrated, but I think that they deserve more credit than they get/got.
