I love me some Levar Burton. He may not have done as many movies as others. But he is one of my favorites.

And I'm a Star Wars dork so I got to love James Earl Jones. I also dig when he was on The Simpsons. Samuel L Jackson is pretty sweet also.

You know I don't know if it was one of those uptight actors lists. But no Martin Lawrence?

I think the movie Black Knight made it impossible for him to be on the list.

And Wesley Snipes is like #85. I dig Blade and would have put him a lot higher for that.

The Martin TV show was damn funny. Go back and watch it if you never have.

I really think Halle Berry should be a higher on the list and Phylicia Rashaad too. I'm not a feminest but come on.

Bill Cosby should be higher. I think Denzel Washington is the bestest.

Looks like they took every black actor that anyone would know, ranked the top ten and randomly assigned a number to the 90 others. I think Cheadle is one of the best out there of any race.

Bill Cosby at 84 and Levar Burton at 31 has to be a mix up.
