However, all such threads begin and end with:

BRUCE CAMPBELL

(you first state the name, then just back into whatever stats are necessary)

Burn Notice

Hercules/Xena

The Adventures of Brisco County Jr.

(when using the term "great" for the thread, the above all qualify simply by Campbell's presence in them)

(oh, and he deserves partial credit for the greatest Old Spice commercial ever)

Winner. He was also in Ellen DeGeneres's comedy show, pre-lesbian announcement. When it was somewhat funny.

Also Ryan Stiles (Drew Carey Show, Who's Line Is It, Two and Half Men).

She was also on "The Rookies" in the 70s. It was after DS and before CA. The show ran for several years. She was the wife of one of the cops, and also a nurse. Whenever someone got hurt they would see nurse Jill.

 
Has anyone mentioned Gillian Anderson yet? Interesting work in three shows that were buzzworthy in some way. The X-Files, Hannibal (like nothing else on broadcast TV), and The Fall (where she was amazing).

I think the odd couple was great. quincy was kinda great, isn't it really the show that spawned all of these forensic shows on today (think bones, etc.)

so, twilight zone was great imo and he starred in a couple of episodes.

John Lennon's death[SIZE=small][edit][/SIZE]Main article: Death of John Lennon
On the night of December 8, 1980, during a Monday Night Football game between the Miami Dolphins and the New England Patriots, Cosell stunned the television audience by announcing the murder of John Lennon live while performing his regular commentating duties. Word had been passed to Cosell and Frank Gifford byRoone Arledge, who was president of ABC's news and sports divisions at the time, near the end of the game.

Cosell was initially apprehensive about announcing Lennon's death. Off the air, Cosell conferred with Gifford and others saying "Fellas, I just don't know, I'd like your opinion. I can't see this game situation allowing for that news flash, can you?" Gifford replied, "Absolutely. I can see it." Gifford later told Cosell, "Don't hang on it. It's a tragic moment and this is going to shake up the whole world."[16][17]

On air, Gifford prefaced the announcement saying, "And I don't care what's on the line, Howard, you have got to say what we know in the booth." Cosell then replied:

Yes, we have to say it. Remember this is just a

Lennon had been shot four times but the facts of the shooting were not clear at the time of the announcement. Lennon once appeared on Monday Night Football, during the December 9, 1974 telecast of a 23-17 Washington Redskins win over the Los Angeles Rams, and was interviewed for a short breakaway segment by Cosell.

ABC had obtained this scoop as a result of the coincidence of an ABC employee, Alan Weiss, being at the same emergency room that Lennon was brought to that night.[19] This unwittingly violated a request to the hospital by Lennon's wife, Yoko Ono, to delay reporting his death until she could tell their son, Sean, herself. Sean, age 5, was not watching the football game (or any television) that evening as it was near midnight, and Ono was able to break the news to him.[20] NBC beat ABC to the punch, however, interrupting The Tonight Show just minutes before Cosell's announcement with a "breaking news" segment.[21

Kyle MacLachlan:

Twin Peaks

Desperate Housewives

Portlandia

Agents of Shield

Good Wife

How I Met Your Mother

Sex and the City

OK didn't star in all of these but always a memorable recurring character.

(Also starred in three series that I don't think anyone can call great - Believe, Made in Jersey, In Justice)
