There are a bunch. Nearly every article I've read about the show talks about some celebrity or other who loves it.

A of the ones I've heard about include:

Barack Obama
Meryl Streep
Jack Nicholson
Michael Kors
Tina Fey
Jennifer Aniston
Tom Hanks
Phylicia Rashad
Prince

Plus The Simpsons even paid homage to the show in one of their Treehouse of Horrors Halloween specials. You can't get any more iconic than that.

For some reason it makes me laugh to think of Prince and Jack Nicholson sitting down watching the show!

I read an interview with Simon Cowell where he mentioned that MM was the only drama series he watched.

Don't forget Regis Philbin's wife. Regis had Jon Hamm show up to his house and surprise his wife. Regis took a picture as his wife answered the door. It was pretty weird for Jon Hamm, but he was a good sport about it. Cheers!

.....They can watch and appreciate.

With one or two exceptions, I'd rather not see a single face I know up close, and intimately.

That's a task to be sure, however inadvisable..... surely it would ruin everything.
