What actor or actress has the all-time best sitcom filmography?

[Madmick]

I recently came across an episode of The New Adventures of Old Christine on PlutoTV, and realized I'd totally forgotten about the show. This got me to thinking about how Julia Louis Dreyfuss has been a main cast member on three award-winning sitcoms, and in fact has won the Emmy for Outstanding Lead Actress on all three. I began to wonder if anybody has a better TV sitcom filmography.

Main Cast Member

• Seinfeld
• The New Adventures of Old Christine
• Veep

Guest Recurring

• Curb Your Enthusiasm (8 Episodes)
• Arrested Development (4 Episodes)
• The Simpsons (3 Episodes)

But I believe there is someone who can give her a run for her money.

Dang. Both really really good choices. I can't think of anyone else who has consistently been good and funny for such a long time period.

 

[William Huggins]

You obviously know there's no come back with that 1, 2 ........

 

[Sonny Qc]

Firefly
Buffy
Castle
Lost
Desperate Housewives
Modern Family
The Rookie

and dozen of cameos

 

[I Am Legion]

Can't beat OP, but:
Ed O'Neil
500 episodes between Married With Children and Modern Family.
22 Episodes of Dragnet.
And maybe not a sitcom but a great 10-episode arc on weird but cult show John from Cincinatti.

Speaking of Married With Children:
Ted McGinley
167 Episodes of Married
62 on Love Boat
61 on Happy Days
8 Episodes of Sport Night
9 Episodes of Shrinking with Harrison Ford
TONS of guest spots

Ed O Neil has to be up there. Married with Children and huge comeback in Modern Family.

Not better than those 2, but Danny Devito has been in a ton. Mainly Taxi and Always sunny, with a lot of appearances in other stuff.

Castle was great, very under-rated show.

 

[MWB1982]

I'm not sure what this thread is asking but she gets my vote for sitcom women

 

[Captain Tenneal]

Ted must be close with Seth McFarland
