Here is a list of my favorite actors. There are a lot of others that I really like, but thes are my top ones. There is no ranking intentended in the order they appear in the list (well, accept for Alyssa, she's my Number One).
Alyssa Milano
She is my goddess. Since the first time I saw her on TV I was a fan. By chance I saw the episode "Death and Love, Part 1" from Who's the Boss? (what became my favorite tv-show) and when I first saw Alyssa and this very special smile of her I was "in love", so to say. I watched every tv-show and every movie she starred, I own her CDs, I even read her book "Safe at Home - Confessions of a Baseball Fanatic", although I'm not interested in sports.
I also admire her social engagement.

Damian Lewis
I first saw him in Life and it was his portrait of Charlie Crews, that made the show so special. It was also him and his acting that made Homeland so special.
I began looking for other shows and movies he was in and I have to say, I like most of his roles very much.
And i always thought he would have been a great Doctor in Doctor Who.
Tim Allen
Best known for his role as Tim Taylor in Home
Improvement, he also starred in a lot of my favorite movies like Galaxy Quest
or The Santa Clause film series. I think he's a
great comedian but also a great actor. His actual show Last man Standing is also
great.
Tom Baker
Like David Tennant, I saw Tom Baker first as the Doctor. And from his first appearance I loved his Doctor. It is true, he
is the Doctor, the definite article you might say. And of course, I wanted to see more of Mr. Baker's work. He will always be the Doctor to me, but I also admire
his other work as an actor. I also love his voice work on the Big Finish audio plays, he has such a great voice - he could read the telephone book or a lexicon, and I would love it.
Humphrey Bogart
A legend. Ist there anyone, who doesn't know Bogey? He was Mr. Cool before the term was invented.
John Barrowman
Robert Carlyle
I am a great Once Upon a Time-fan and Rumplestitskin / Mr. Gold is my favorite
character of the show. Robert Carlyle is just great in the role. So I began to look for his other work and became a real fan. I saw him in Stargate Universe before and relly liked his work, but the show is not my really
my ... "favorite" Stargate show ;)
Tony Danza
Whos the Boss? is my all time favorite tv-show, so it's no
onder, that besides Alyssa Milano another of the main actors is one of my favorite actors. I love his natural, charming manner and although I see always Tony Micelli in him, I also love his other
work.
Johnny Depp
Such a damned good actor. He's so different in his roles, you often wouldn't believe it's the same actor.
Peter Falk
Best known for his role as Lieutenant Columbo, which most
people think of when they hear the name Peter Falk, and what is my favorite of his roles, too. However, he also starred in great number of other movies., but Columbo was his greatest role, for which he became
famous and loves all over the world. So it is very interesting to see him in his other roles, when they are so different from the grumpy Lieutenant.
Stan Laurel & Oliver Hardy
For me, the best comedy actors ever. They belonged together and together they were so incredible good. They had a special kind of humor and they were so sympathetic ... Their movies are real classics, which are today as funny as they were in those days they were filmed. Their humor is timeless.
Rose McGowan
I saw her in Charmed first, and liked
her character immediately. Later I saw her in Planet Terror and then I looked for
more of her movies - and became a fan.
Marilyn Monroe
Actress, singer, model, sex symbol.
A legend.
Gone too far.
In her movies she often played a person that seems to be naive, but has her own kind of wisdom. Tragically in real life many people thought her to be a 'dumb
blonde', what she really wasn't.
James Stewart
He is known for his distinctive drawl voice and down-to-earth persona and I think that's why I like hom so, too. He had something special, I cannot really define, but watching his films makes me always emotional.
Amanda Tapping
David Tennant
I think it was 2008 when I for the first Time saw him as the Tenth Doctor in Doctor Who. I became a fan of the show and also of David Tennant. He portrayed not only one of my favorite Doctors, he is really a brilla
Lea Thompson
John Wayne
