Hahaha, this guy! The main reason to watch How I Met Your Mother! And he look's good too And I have to congratulate his recent fatherhood! That Kid's childhood is going to be LEGEN... Wait for it... DARY. Neil Harris for the win!
Alright, acting wise, he has yet to have a really serious role where he can show off his talent. But how can you help but love this wonderful man. He is adorable, wonderful, creative and funny. Sad he bats for the other team, but only because that leaves no shot for me.
Actually he shows off much of his talent in How I Met Your Mother. - Juan-Luis
I love Neil Patrick Harris! He is my favourite actor! He is so funny when he portrays as Barney Stinson!
Whenever I hear people say that an "Out" gay actor could never be taken seriously in a straight role I think of Mr Harris, and how effectively he proves them wrong,
Would gladly doogie his howser.

I wish he wasn't so he could be mine. His eyes, his smile, his hair, his everything.
Matt lets do it together and make everyone jealous you first
Great actor.

Of these top ten, Chad has made his sexuality known through his movies and public service. He is a dashing, charming, daring, young man. He exudes masculinity through his sexuality. He's great.
I remember always rushing to the T.V. when Dr Quinn was on... He made my nights and fantasies
Great actor love everything he has played in I think he is the best actor. Do you have a partner and if so who is it
Has always been hot. I wish that USA was a bit less nervous about male nudity. We need to see him nude more often.

James Joseph "Jim" Parsons is an American actor. He is known for playing Sheldon Cooper in the CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory. Great actor, make you smile every time he is on the air. Thank god for guys like him that can make you smile
Incredibly talented comedian that always seem to make us laugh. He has a great writing staff behind him, but, I doubt anyone else could deliver those complicated technical dialogues as well.
Jim Parsons is by far the cutest and most talented of any actor on this list, he should be #1.
He is adorable! I feel ashamed that I was weirded out when I found out he was gay... Now I'm over that and I absolutely love him! Amazing actor too! - Flowersocks2137

He is referred to as Sir which is pretty damn awesome if you ask me, and he plays Gandalf and Magneto... That's all I have to say.
He should be number one. He's an amazing actor!
