Forgot Mark Healy in Roseanne, who started out as a douchebag, but whose character developed into a dumb, lovable good guy. So much so that Dan stuck up for him as a hard worker and good husband.

Some of his scenes in the later seasons were hilarious, particularly when he and DJ were palling around.

A few from the old "Andy Griffith Show".

Ernest T. Bass
Briscoe Darling
Gomer Pyle

Alan Brady, Carl Reiner's character on "The Dick Van Dyke Show"

Frank Fontaine playing Craze Guggenheim with Joe The Bartender on the old "Jackie Gleason Show".

Foster Brooks, the perpetual drunk character on lots of variety shows in the 60's and 70's.

Speaking of which... Rafe Holister was a possible stock player on Mayberry, along with Goober, Gomer, Floyd, etc.

But the actor considered himself a stage and lounge singer and wasn't interested in a steady acting gig.

Watching Veep again and Congressman Furlough is probably my favorite example of this, which prompted the thread.


He’s my 2nd favorite behind Jonah. Very good choice.

They've all been mentioned, but I will second:

Jean-Ralphio - PnR
Dean Pelton - Community
Stevie Janowski - Eastbound and Down (although could make argument he's a main...)

All three are absolute scene stealers
