Actors from recent shows showing up in bit parts

Another more LOST ones (I see them everywhere).
I remember seeing Miles in an ep of Law and Order. Locke played the main character’s boss in Old School. And both Jack and Richard were in Smoking Aces.

:eek: How much of Elizabeth Mitchell is in the movie Gia?

Christopher Meloni had a small role for a part of a season on NYPD blue. He played the former boyfriend of Dana Delaney’s character.

It’s been years since I’ve seen the actual movie(well before Lost even), but from the clip I recently saw when I learned this news, I can definitely say that she does get her character’s point across.

He also shows up in The X-Files, as a crazy scientist studying volcanoes.

Also from various X-Files episodes, Felicity Huffman plays another scientist, in the episode when they’re trapped in the Arctic after an ear parasite is released from ancient ice.

Lucy Liu makes an appearance in the episode about the haunted gambling death ring in Chinatown.

Luke Wilson, better known as Owen Wilson’s brother, is the local sheriff in the he said/she said vampire show.

You know, when you write out the plots, wow, they all sound so dumb.

I saw John Larroquette in a walk-on role as a bellboy in an episode of “Ellery Queen Mysteries”.

Ethan Phillips, who played Neelix on “Star Trek: Voyager” is a museum guard who gets killed in an early scene in “The Shadow”.

John Ratzenberg has a blink-and-you’ll-miss-him role in “The Empire Strikes Back”.

A bunch of people from the Sopranos had bit roles in Goodfellas. (some had big roles too) Bit roles were played by:

Paulie Walnuts
Big Pussy
Chris Moltisanti
Phil Leotardo
Larry Barese

Besides Daniel Dae Kim and Elizabeth Mitchell, Lost is just stupid with this trope.

Hey! Hurley’s on Becker for a few episodes!

Hey! Bernard was Holland Manners and in The Stand and the principal from Growing Pains!

Hey! Alex was Malcolm’s little girlfriend!

Hey! Libby is the same actress as the wife from Titus (god, I miss Titus)!

…speaking of Titus… Titus’ brother was Scott Farkus! And the future guy from Dollhouse!

Hey! Claire is the dead girl from Brick and she was the bad alien on Roswell!

Hey! Locke has been in everything! He was the FBI guy on Alias!

If you ever saw the show Life you’d be surprised to see the actress that portrys the delicious Reese (Sarah Shahi) in the 2003 movie Old School, simulating oral sex on a big cucumber!
