Jack McBrayer, '30 Rock'
Jack McBrayer
"30 Rock," NBC
You know him as: NBC page Kenneth Parcell
Why we like him: If you knew someone like Kenneth the Page in your real life, chances are he'd be pretty hard to take, with his eternally sunny outlook on life and unabashed love of his often-thankless job. For 22 minutes or so each week, though, Kenneth, as played by McBrayer, is an Up with People package of comic gold. Really, it's almost a wonder McBrayer doesn't break up on every take, given the impossibly naive dialogue he's often given. Yet Kenneth, ineffectual as he may be, is also a man of principle, and to see McBrayer in a huff is a wonder to behold.
Where else you've seen him: As part of Ricky Bobby's crew in "Talladega Nights" and in a couple episodes of "Arrested Development."
