if you see one of these character actors, you are probably watching a good show
Character actors on my favorite shows and non-endorsed shows that have gotten good reviews from other people/critics. “Character actor” is kind of debatable, but whatever. I left off “Law & Order” because everyone’s on that. Also neglected “Star Trek.”
Titus Welliver: “Lost,” “Deadwood,” “Sons of Anarchy” (see also “NYPD Blue,” “Kings,” “LA Law,” “The Good Wife,” “Prison Break”)
Anne Dudek: “Mad Men,” “Big Love,” “Six Feet Under,” (see also “Bones,” “House,” “ER”, “Desperate Housewives”)
Patrick Fischler: “Mad Men,” “Southland,” “Lost,” “The West Wing” (see also “Bones,” “Veronica Mars,” “ER,” “CSI,” “Angel,” “NYPD Blue”)
“Battlestar Galactica,” “True Blood,” “Homicide: Life on the Street,” “Wonderland,” “Lost,” “Seinfeld” (see also “In Treatment,” “Prison Break,” “Boston Legal,” “Alias,” “24”)
Kevin Chapman: “Brotherhood,” “Lost,” “Cold Case,” “Sons of Anarchy,” (see also “Rescue Me,” “Boston Legal,” “24,” “NYPD Blue,” “CSI”)
Željko Ivanek: “True Blood,” “Lost,” “Big Love,” “Cold Case,” “Homicide: Life on the Street,” “CSI,” “NYPD Blue,” “The West Wing,” “Oz” (see also “Heroes,” “The Mentalist,” “Damages,” “House,” “Bones,” “24,” “Ally McBeal,” “Frazier,” “LA Law”)
Wow, Ivanek probably wins.
