I, for one, love Roman numerals.
ReplyDeleteB. Forever B.
ReplyDeleteB. There shouldn't even be other options.
ReplyDeleteThe Nerd with angry Mail Order Bride in
ReplyDeleteDodgeball
Always the stapler guy in Office Space. It's been way too long since I've seen that movie.
ReplyDeleteOffice Space.
ReplyDeleteE. The Cyclops in "Oh Brother Where Art Thou".
ReplyDeleteThat was John Goodman. Root played the blind radio station manager “it was a powerful aiiiiiirrrrrrr”
DeleteB wins
ReplyDeleteB!!
ReplyDelete*O Brother.....
ReplyDeleteE: That guy who hires Woody Harrelson in "No Country for Old Men"
ReplyDeleteAll of the above
ReplyDeleteI would say Office Space, but I watched most of NewsRadio and he was much more hilarious in that :)
ReplyDeleteB is the patron saint of every cubicle drone out there, even if you think you're hot shit making 6 figures worth of paper coupons.
ReplyDeleteThere can only be one right answer to this. B. Milton!
ReplyDeleteI forgot it was Goodman's character who was the Cyclops...can't remember what character from Homer's Odyssey the blind DJ represented....
ReplyDeleteHe was Homer himself!
ReplyDeleteJudge Mike "The Hammer" Reardon on "Justified." This guy's everywhere.
ReplyDeleteThank God for the character actors.
Jimmy James, author of the autobiographical book, Macho Business Donkey Wrestler.
ReplyDeleteYou all really should watch News Radio sometime. Best sitcom of all time.

Guy in Dodgeball (or B, definitely B)
ReplyDeleteSpeaking of ubiquitous actors, is anyone else at all freaked out (a little bit) that Michael Stuhlbarg seems to be in every new movie and tv series lately?
ReplyDeleteI heard he hits the couch in Narnia
Delete(He was really good as Arnold Rothstein in the tolerable parts of Boardwalk Empire though)
DeleteI’d say it has to be his iconic star turn as Raymond, a hunting store owner involved in illegal gun trading, in the 1993 In the Heat of the Night episode "A Love Lost".
ReplyDeleteI love Wikipedia!
B (although he was great in Dodgeball, as well.)
ReplyDeleteA. NewsRadio was the best.
ReplyDeleteI thought Barry was pretty good! My first thought was A, NewsRadio.
ReplyDeleteNews Radio, although I would say Bill Deutrive on King of the Hill.
ReplyDeleteNews Radio guy.
ReplyDeleteA) because I'm officially an elder (at 49)
ReplyDeleteStapler...but you could go back to a nice little scene (his first film) in Crocodile Dundee 2
ReplyDeleteNewsradio all the way
ReplyDeleteY'all forgot Bill Deauterive on "King of the Hill".
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, B.
The principal in Buffy the Vampire Slayer
ReplyDeleteDEEEtention!
The voice of Bill Dauterive and Buck Strickland on King of the Hill.
ReplyDeleteNews Radio
ReplyDeleteGuy with Stapler
The Man in the High Castle
King of the Hill.
Never saw the other two.
How about all four and include the Washington Spy series on AMC?
ReplyDelete(He portrayed the guy who organized and ran Washington's spy network during the Revolutionary War.)
Also, the blind radio station owner in Oh, Brother, Where Art Thou?. Love this guy.
ReplyDeleteJimmy James!
ReplyDeleteI saw him in Get Out and immediately thought of O Brother Where Art Thou
ReplyDeleteI'd say he was the eccentric millionaire in Northern Exposure. Then my friend would say, "No, that was Barry Corbin." Then I'd say, "Oh, right, I always get that mixed up." Then I'd go with A for people my age and B for younger.
ReplyDeleteBag man in Boardwalk Empire.
ReplyDeleteIn order: B, D and A.
ReplyDeleteJimmy James from Newsradio, the funniest sitcom of all time. Maybe not greatest, -- it didn't break down barriers like MASH or All in the Family or Cosby Show. But for pure humor, it doesn't get better.
ReplyDeleteYes, exactly! Whenever we saw him in anything else, hubby and I would be like "Jimmy James!"
DeleteThat whole cast was great (except Joe Rogan). Now knowing what a prick Andy Dick was, it's hard for me to enjoy it nearly as much. But it was brilliant.
Steven Root is so underrated, he is amazingly talented!!
They guy in Seinfeld who worked at the bank who paid Kramer for not getting a "hello"
ReplyDeleteOffice Space Red Stapler guy, but they all work for me.
ReplyDeleteI answer Bill Dauterive.
ReplyDeleteIs Dan Schneider going down? Nickelodeon just cut ties with him.
ReplyDeleteJimmy James from News Radio.
ReplyDeleteI still remember the goofy episode wherein one character insisted on knowing what the rules of management were, despite being warned that they didn't want to know. And Jimmy James tormented her the whole episode trying to teach her the rules of management.
Jimmy James, period.
ReplyDeleteE. Bill from King of The Hill
ReplyDeleteA
ReplyDeleteHeeeey Milton, yeeaah I'm gonna need yooouuu to go ahead and move your desk to warehouse B.
ReplyDeleteThe blind radio station owner in o brother where art thou.
