Glad to see Wendell Pierce (though you could include the entire cast of The Wire) and Damien Lewis (where's he been?). I would also add Walton Goggins from The Shield, Enrico Colantoni from Veronica Mars, and John Scurti (Lou) from Rescue Me.

Justin, I agree on John Scurti. Like him a lot.
I've always been a big fan of Clea Duvall also.

I'd like to add the WHOLE cast of Battlestar Galactica on that list, Alyson Hannigan (Buffy, How I Met Your Mother), and Yun-Jin Kim (Lost).

Kudos to Nathan Fillion, David Hyde Pierce, the cast of Everwood, and Mary Lynn Rajskub.

Michael Sera and Will Arnett, hell even Jason Bateman

I think Michael Cera is due for great things, and they'll come to him naturally. He's too young to be considered under appreciated yet. I'll second David Hyde Pierce, though, since he really deserves more than being a perpetual second-fiddle. Damn, he's really good.
Oh, and hear hear to the cast of Everwood. Who knew that Scott Wolf had such range?

Hasn't David Hyde Pierce already won tons of Emmys? I don't really think that makes him an "underrated" actor.

Agree with #1 on John Scurti and the whole cast of The Wire. Bubbles deserves an Emmy nod.

Allison Mack is teh hawtt

Totally agree with the cast of Everwood it was such a disgrace they way they got rid of that show but still kept crap like 7th Heaven and One Tree Hill. Also anyone on the Wire is tops in my book.

I agree that David Hyde-Pierce doesn't seem to belong on that list. He's won Emmys, he's been in a lot of feature films--what does he have to squawk about?

But I would definitely vote for Gregory Smith, Emily VanCamp, and Chris Pratt from Everwood; for Nathan Fillion, who needs to get out of genre films; and I would add Jason Dohring and Kristen Bell from Veronica Mars, who are outstanding actors who ought to be getting film offers out the wazoo.

Beth Lacke from "Happy Hour". She was and is the only thing that made that show even marginally watchable.

I would add Kevin Sussman, who plays Walter on Ugly Betty.

Some really great suggestions here! I'd like to add Jason Segel ("How I Met Yr Mother"), he is always enjoyable to watch and I think he could carry a show.

I'm so stoked for Helo!!

Allison Mack is especially under-appreciated this season. She has bangs and is working her His-Girl-Friday bit.

Definately Matthew Settle!! I've even put his name in my Google Alert, because he has so little press...Why!!?? Damian Lewis, too! These two are every bit as talented, and handsome as any of your US weekly, and People Magazine cover boys...and I do mean boys!! Actually, they're more talented! Hollywood thinks we are idiots, and only go to see movies for the stars' box office draw. There's a difference between a movie star, and an actor! Settle and Lewis are actors!!

Allison Mack is def. at the top of my list, I wouldn't mind seeing her on the big screen and more magazine covers..in fact I'd LOVE it.

i think that Supernatural doesnt get enough publicity. it is an awesome show and should be on the cover of magazines more often.

I believe that Jensen Ackles (especially) and Jared Padalecki deserve more fame for their roles as Dean and Sam Winchester in 'Supernatural'.

Jensen and Jared because Supernatural is a pretty awesome and original show, and they're both damn good at what they do. Yep.
