I'm sure this has been done before but I was just wondering which characters everybody considers the best/funniest and which actors are considered most talented. This is what I think.(I am not just judging on current episodes, but overall performance between 1994 to the present date.)

Most Talented 1)Courteney Cox Arquette 2)David Schwimmer 3)Lisa Kudrow 4)Matthew Perry 5)Matt LeBlanc 6)Jennifer Aniston

Favorite Characters 1)Chandler 2)Joey 3)Monica 4)Rachel 5)Phoebe 6)Ross

Funniest 1)Joey (would have been Chandler, but for season 7) 2)Chandler 3)Phoebe 4)Monica 5)Ross 6)Rachel

For me it's probably

  • Matthew Perry
  • Kudrow
  • Aniston
  • Arquette
  • Schwimmer
  • LeBlanc

Same.

I'd probably have Rachel and Monica switch places...

Most talented actor: Jennifer Aniston Lisa Kudrow Courtney Cox Arquette Matt LeBlanc Matthew Perry David Schwimmer (I definately think that overall the girls are better actors than the guys, and I think that my point is proven in the fact that the girls have more Emmy nominations total than the guys)

Favorite characters: Rachel (Duh!!) Joey/Phoebe Chandler (old Chandler) Monica (old Monica) Ross (Last would have to be the new, married Mondler!!)

Funniest characters: Chandler (old, unmarried Chandler!!) Phoebe Joey Rachel Monica Ross

i think lisa kudrow has 5 nominations, and jennifer aniston and david schwimmer each have 1. hardly proves that the women are better overall, since it is basically lisa dominating everyone else. and also if nominations is your guide, then your top 2 are backwards.

i am glad to see you rank matt leblanc as the top guy. he doesn't get enough credit IMHO. somehow lisa gets raves for playing the buffoon, but matt doesn't.

guys,

nominations

Jennifer has at least 2 nominations, that I know of, and I think that she is highly underated!! But this year is definately her year and everyone is going to see what I have been seeing from the very first episode. In my opinion, comedy doesn't make you an excellent actor (and this is all that most of the others are good for) but Jennifer Aniston is the best "actor" of all of them because her dramatic acting blows everyone out of the water!! Don't get me wrong. I LOVE this show and all of the actors and do initially watch the show for the comic relief. Hell, we all do and this is why we love the show. But when it comes to the best "actor" Jennifer can't be beat!! :)

JA is a very good actress. She is able to perform any scene brilliant be it drama or comedy. I can't believe some people have actually put her on the bottom on of their list. MLB is very good. Good comedy is the hardest to do. I agree, he is the most under-rated actor on the show.

I think we all agree that this is JA and MLB's year. They have been absolutely amazing so far this season!

One of the reasons I had JA bottom is because of her dramatic acting. I think comedically she is very solid, but some of her drama embarrasses me.

I was also taking into account their other work. I have seen all 6 in many different roles. Both JA and MP always seem to be playing the same character. As MP's character involves more skill, I find it worse for JA.

I am by no means saying she is a bad actress. She isn't. I think she is a very good sitcom actress.

It surprises me the way CCA is regarded by some fans of the show immensely. I do know what I am talking about when it comes to acting and she certainly isn't bad.

I haven't seen any of S8 yet (roll on January for E4), but I think all of the above also applies to S7. Matthew Perry is my favourite actor on the show because he is so yummy, but I wish the old Chandler would come back - I miss him desperately!
