This is an incomplete list of actors who have regular roles on active scripted TV shows, syndicated, game or reality shows and have lived (or still live) in metro Atlanta (or as far Athens). I’m going to omit the casts of shows who shoot their shows here such as “Vampire Diaries,” “Drop Dead Diva,” “The Walking Dead,” “Tyler Perry’s House of Payne,” “Tyler Perry’s Meet the Browns,” “Let’s Stay Together” and “The Game.”
One thing’s for sure: NBC likes actors from metro Atlanta. Former Atlanta Boris Kodjoe co-starred in the just-axed NBC series “Undercovers.”
David Cross: “The Increasingly Poor Decisions of Todd Margaret” (IFC)
And thank you for your reminders. I forgot (or was not aware of)
Kyle Chandler: “Friday Night Lights” (DirectTV/NBC)
Walter Goggins:”Justified” (FX) promoted to series regular for season two
Hosts of TV shows (they don’t all count as actors but some are)
Victoria Stilwell: “It’s Me or the Dog” (Animal Planet)
Ty Pennington: “Extreme Makeover: Home Edition” (ABC)
Jeff Foxworthy: “Are You Smarter Than a 5th Grader?” (syndicated)
Nancy Grace: “Swift Justice With Nancy Grace” (syndicated)
Please list more if you know of them (and I’m only listing folks who are working in CURRENT TV series).
