I think they are the best actors. Have you noticed that too?

I believe the best actors are the back round actors. The ones, who are sitting there, eating, having fun, etc. Behind the "star', they look like they are really just people having lunch. Most of the times they are more believable than the stars. They are laughing, talking, and eating-all without making a sound. Well, that's my 2 cents.

I was watching Frasier, and the "lunch" people seemed to be more interesting ,and real, than the brothers.

They are probably beginners who are just happy to have a paying job, even if it is in the background. I think they are called extras.
