1. Lucille Ball
2. Mary Tyler Moore
3. Julia Louis Dreyfus
4. Marla Gibbs
5. Amy Poehler


Didn't give this too much thought so if I get good feedback here I will change it.

The truth is Mary Tyler Moore and Julia Louis Dreyfus are probably my top two but I had to pay respect to the GOAT.

I wanted to exclude sketch because they just have an unfair advantage getting to play so many different characters and I didn't want this to be an SNL list only.

I also couldn't give it to an actress who only played on character.

Also this list easily could have been dominated by women from the last 15 years as women no longer had to play the "straight guy" so much but had to recognized women who were hilarious without the freedom to be as silly and as raunchy as the guys.

I will acknowledge that Marla Gibbs might be a reach.
