| 6 | He's a regular face in film, television and theatre. He's perhaps best known for his work on television, particularly for his role as sleazy ladies' man Kirk Morris on ''Series/DearJohn'', manipulative psychiatrist Anson Fullerton on ''Series/BurnNotice'', psychotic mobster Jake Abernathy on ''Series/BatesMotel'' and the understanding Group Leader on ''Series/BreakingBad''. |

| 8 | The role that many know him for, however, is that of Dixie Mafie middle-man Wynn Duffy on the critically acclaimed ''Series/{{Justified}}''. Originally a one-shot guest appearance, Burns was gradually upgraded to recurring and then to a regular to the positive fan and critical reception to his performance. |
