Over the past few weeks I've watched the entire 100 episodes of 'Boston Legal' starring William Shatner and James Spader. Absolutely brilliant series that I highly recommend to everyone.
It's technically not a comedy as there are a lot of series issues in this legal drama, but William Shatner is absolutely hilarious as the character 'Denny Crane'. Seriously, every scene he is in just makes you want to laugh, the man is a legend.
The only other comedic performance to rival Shatner is that of David Hyde Pierce in 'Frasier'.
So my question to you is not what is your favourite comedy, but what is the best comedy character - it doesn't necessarily have to be from a comedy programme either.
