Best Supporting Performances In a Television Sitcom
You know the characters that make up the show, but aren't recognised as the stars. Supporting characters usually deserve more credit, often they're even better than the main star.
Even though the Friends cast are supposed to be an ensemble, Phoebe and Joey were often treated as second fiddle. Lisa Kudrow performance of the quirky character is unforgettable. From playing dodgy guitar, to talk about her past street life, the sweet, caring Phoebe is probably the best of the Friends cast!
Kudrow is a comical genius and in this particular show, showed her co-stars a masterclass of underplayed comedy.
Supporting? You serious bro?! And Joey too wow.
The former Blossom star joined the Big Bang Theory cast in it's fourth season, after guest starrin briefly in the Season 3 finale. Amy Farrah - Fowler, her character is a neurobioligist, who is like a female version of Sheldon, the show lead star, she devotes her life to Science. However, under the influence of Penny, Amy learns about the fun side of laugh. She throws away her organised schedule and trades it for an awkward pair of high heels.

Acts natural. The straightest gay guy I've ever seen. Can't believe they actually put up Mayim Balik and KH above Neil Patrick Harris.
Ethel Mertz, Viv was an excellent co - star to comedy genius Lucille Ball and was as genius Lucy. The chemistry between the two female character was amazingly and they came up with some of the most iconic T. V moments in history. In 1954, she won the first ever Best Supporting Actress in a Comedy Series Emmy. Vivian went on the co - star in Lucille Ball's followin up series - The Lucy Show, where she and Lucy also made some excellent moments.
Valerie must of been good, she left the Mary Tyler Moore Show after four season to star in her own spinoff "Rhoda" which lasted five seasons, two of which made the top ten shows of the year. Rhoda was sarcastic, strange and interesting.

I Dream of Jeannie is often forgotten when people talk about sitcoms, and it shouldn't be. Hayden Rorke played Dr Bellows, a psychiatrist, who frequently experience strange happenings concerning Jeannie and Major Nelson. He famous line, 'He's done it me again, ' is performance was the best facial expressions ever!
Jon Cryer is a great character, much better than Charlie Sheen. He won an Emmy for best supporting actress, before being given the lead role in Season 9, winning the Best Lead Actor in a Comedy Series Emmy in 2012.

Still going great in her 90's, Betty White was only meant to guest star in the pilot, but was so good, they made her a main cast member. The best thing Betty has ever done, including the Golden Girls and Mary Tyler Moore Show.

Much like Phobe, Joey's character often became a second fiddle. Matt LeBlanc's performance of the brain-dead' ladies man Joey Tribbiani was terrific. He went on to star in 'Joey' his own spin- off.
Her, Frank and Robert made the show.

Best actor ever! Come on

She plays Moira Rose like a combination of Ms. Darbus from High School Musical, Tyrannia Vamperl from Wunschpunsch and Delia Deetz from Beetlejuice.
A blonde bimbo who doesn't get old after 11 seasons!
