The Good Humor Guys

They say laughter is the best medicine. If that's true, then these men could heal the world with their performances worthy of a nomination for Outstanding Lead Actor in a Comedy Series:

Alec Baldwin, 30 Rock (NBC)
Steve Carell, The Office (NBC)
Jason Lee, My Name Is Earl (NBC)
Tony Shalhoub, Monk (USA)
Charlie Sheen, Two and a Half Men (CBS)

Possible Alternates: Zach Braff, Scrubs (NBC) and Ricky Gervais, Extras (HBO)

Alec Baldwin displayed comic genius as the network TV exec with a flair for the dramatic. Steve Carell continued to create chaos as the boss who desperately needed to get a clue about interpersonal dynamics. Jason Lee charmed as the man with a mission to make up for his mistakes. Triple Emmy winner Tony Shalhoub brought new meaning to obsessive compulsive disorder as the detective with more than a few hang-ups. Charlie Sheen sparkled as aging playboy jingle writer with a Peter Pan complex. Zach Braff showed why his young doctor persona was the heart of Sacred Heart. Ricky Gervais provided belly laughs as a struggling actor trying to get a break in show biz.
