I think they mean all his characters are bombastic, loud, and kind of obnoxious. But somehow still different, so you’d still be able to immediately identify each character.
Like for me, Jack Black is Jack Black. A short clip of several of his characters and I’m not sure I’d know which is which.
But this guy, Jackie Daytona the human, I’d spot in a second. Completely different guy from Lazlo the vampire.
Ah okay, I thought they were complaining, and I was about to start listing the amount of amazing character actors who play “samey” roles that you can’t get enough of
Fair enough, though I would propose that it is not a binary thing, plenty of great character actors get typecast when they actually have a much broader range
100%. “pure” character or “pure” type actors are generally just doing the work that gets them paid. rarely does anyone set out in their career to always do one type of work
I’ve never found Matt Berry in anything where he wasn’t my favourite character
He’s also a very accomplished musician and songwriter.
Edit: Also, watch Garth Marenghi’s Darkplace if you have yet to do so.
He plays a remarkably diverse same character in everything.
So you’re not familiar with the concept of character actors?

this is the opposite of a character actor, this is a type actor

we’re just impressed by their abilities
Can’t say that I disagree.
Yes, I can hear you, Clem Fandango.
I mean I can see that, but Nandor was funnier imo.

The little version still freaks me out tbh lol
