Alec is one of those very fortunate actors who are simply able to swap genres as they age. Obviously as he got older he was no longer the sexy leading man type that he'd been in the 80s and 90s, but he was able to smoothly transition to comedy after appearing in dramas for the majority of his career. Not only that but it's almost as if he didn't even find his niche until that transition. When I was younger I remember thinking that Alec was an incredibly handsome, and talented dramatic actor, but now I associate him almost entirely with comedy. It's as if he's actually two separate men, and while they're both awesome, comedic Alec is totally legendary. I'd say that he successfully steals every scene he's in, whether it be in film or television.
