Steve Carell is one of Hollywood's funniest human beings and he turns the BIG 6-0 today.  Whether he is playing the lead role, a supporting role, or a minor role... he crushes it each time with his quick wit and dad-like sense of humor.

I (Donnie) created what I think is a list of Steve Carell's best roles in tv & film.

13. Maxwell Smart in Get Smart

Steve Carell, Anne Hathaway, and The Rock all shined in the remake.

12. Trent in The Way, Way Back

He played the worst person ever in this movie and you really hated his guts but he did a good job playing such a horrible person.

11. Frank Ginsburg in Little Miss Sunshine

Great cast. Great movie!

10. Bobby Riggs in Battle of the Sexes

Steve Carell & Emma Stone crushed their performances!

9. Gru in Despicable Me

Wasn't he casted perfectly for the voice of Gru?

8. John du Pont in Foxcatcher

Steve plays a crazy wrestling coach and does it to perfection!

7. Mark Baum in The Big Short

Fantastic movie!

6. Mitch Kessler in The Morning Show

Great cast!

5. Evan Baxter in Bruce Almighty/Evan Almighty

This scene was laugh out loud funny!

4. Cal Weaver in Crazy, Stupid, Love

Ryan Gosling & Steve Carell were perfect in this movie together.

3. Brick Tamland in Anchorman

This ensemble was legendary!!

2. Andy Stitzer in The 40-Year Old Virgin

When you think of Steve Carell, this scene most likely comes to mind!

1. Michael Scott in The Office

Is there a better role than Michael Scott?  I think this easily tops the list...
