Rules:

You specify a category and identify something overrated from that category; then counter with something underrated from said category. "Overrated" and "underrated" can be based on your own perceptions of how you think people view things. You don't need to statistically prove to me that something actually isn't underrated (Sorry Raising Heel).

I'll go first.

Bill Hader is awesome. Very underrated. "Greg is not an alien" (linked) is the funniest thing SNL has done in a while IMO.
