This is a list of winners of the Primetime Emmy Award for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. Prior to 1988 the category was not gender specific, thus was called Outstanding Guest Performer in a Comedy Series. These awards, like the other 'Guest' Awards, are not presented at the Primetime Emmy Award show, but rather at the Creative Arts Emmy Award show.
