You have to pick the four "best" TV actors and actresses of all time, the ones you feel shaped TV. Note: Oprah doesn't count, as she's not a TV actress.

Actors:
James Garner - Maverick, Rockford Files and other shows. The first true "anti hero" on American TV.
Bill Cosby - I Spy, Fat Albert, The Cosby Show, etc.
Jackie Gleason - Kind of started it all.
Andy Griffith - No Time for Sargents, Andy Griffith Show, Matlock


Actresses
Mary Tyler Moore
Betty White
Carol Burnette
Jane Curtin - SNL, Kate and Allie, Third Rock

    This is tough. I mean REALLY tough. I guess I'd go with the following even
    though some of these people I don't even like that much.

    Actors:

    Jackie Gleason
    Bob Newhart
    Andy Griffith
    Bill Cosby

    Actresses

    Lucile Ball
    Susan Luci
    Erika Slezak
    Jeanne Cooper

    Now my head hurts. Oh, and why all the soap ladies? Go look and see how
    many years these people have been playing the same role. And Jeanne
    Cooper was doing stuff back in the days of Big Valley...40 plus years ago.

    Anyway, that's my list.

    Ouch, did I mention that my head hurts?
