Best Apatow People

As it is the almost the rule, all of the Apatow productions feature the same people. I've been an Apatow fan since Freaks & Geeks, but sometimes Seth Rogen playing the same fucking role over and over can be a little much. The following list comprises my fave Apatow players:

10) Seth Rogen: Yes, he does play a variation of the same cahracter every fucking time, but I thought he was pretty great as Ron in Undeclared. In retrospect it could be because this dude actually wanted shit to happen in his life instead of being a slobby douchy bystander.


9) Jonah Hill: Like Rogen, he always plays the exact same fucking role, fat dirty mouth smartass with a heart of gold; still he did get some pretty great lines in Knocked Up.


8) Iris/Maude Apatow: These little girls are the cutest. They're also the best child actors in movies right now, they just seem so natural, their performances don't feel forced at all. I loved them in that car scene in Knocked Up when one of them googled murder and the other one is crying (no clue which is ehcih and too lazy to google).


7) Jay Baruchel:
Dude is awkward looking but funny and relatable.

6) Carla Gallo:
Kinda sucks that she hasn't done that much. She was likeable as the hooker with the heart of gold in Californication and the Period Girl in Superbad.

5)
Jason Segel: Awesome as Marshall on HIMYM and loved him in I Love you, Man; but he was particularly awesome in Forgetting Sarah Marshall (plus he showed peen which is always a plus, AND the dude is packing). He was hillarious as the clingy older boyfriend Eric on Undeclared and adorkable in Freaks and Geeks.

4) Martin Starr:
He was my fave in Freaks and Geeks, dude just looked so incredibly nerdy, now he actually looks kinda grungy hot

3)
James Franco: Dude is ridiculously hot, smarmy, sexy, funny, everytime he smiles I need to change my underwear. He also seems to be pretty smart which makes him even hotter.

2) Leslie Mann: She made Knocked Up, was the SHIT in the 40 year old virgin and sweet and funny in Funny People. Ahe also seems pretty down to earth and likeable in every interview she does. I agree with an article I read on Rolling Stone about her, that she's the best argument for nepotism.


1) Loudon Wainwright III
: Best TV dad EVER!! Nuff said. I also really like his Rufus sucking on his mom's tits song.
