The box office results for the weekend of June 15 to 17 were all about love and hate. Love, because America once again showed its love for a group of four superhero science adventurers who love nothing less than puns. And hate, because, well, apparently America hates teen girl detectives. And why shouldn’t they? Skank ass bitches are always trying to break up the honest man’s moonshining business.

After seeing Knocked Up on the weekend, I had a couple of thoughts. The first was, of course, that this was an awesomely hilarious movie, rife with great jokes and references and yet another bravura performance from Paul Rudd, who is now on my mancrush list.

The second thought I had was far less positive. It had to do particularly with Katherine Heigl, an actress who’s received (mostly) positive reviews from her work in the film. Despite those notices, however — and, sure, she’s mostly inoffensive — I think it’s fair to conclude that she is, by and large, not a very funny person. She isn’t witty, outlandish or otherwise hilarious. She does not make quips, nor use sarcasm well, nor know the first thing about a good pratfall. Any laughter that surrounds her is likely to always be due to someone else.

Despite all that, though, Katherine Heigl is likely to go on to star in a slew of comedies. Most of these will be bad. Some, I guess, could be good, but again, it will be due to other people’s efforts, and never her directly. In following this path, she’s set to join up with an ever-growing cadre of actors and actresses who have defined themselves as ‘comedic’ performers despite never really being funny. Some of them have even gone on to fantastic success, despite never really being funny.

Starting with Heigl — the newest addition to the list — I’ve put together a list of the Top 10 comedic actors who are not at all funny. These people are not — most of them — bad people. Some of them are even good actors! They’re just very bad comedic actors. If they’d just stop considering themselves funny, I could even see myself liking some of them.
