(crap, I just googled “Vibro Egg”, thinking it was just a Weebl and Bob reference. Then I realized, Weebl and Bob references usually mean something else too. I am now officially embarraseed.)

Nice list, but …

[nitpick]

Jenny Piccalo was a regular on Happy Days in the last few years. ( okay, I think she was often mentioned before she appeared.)

wilson (That’s the neighbour in _Home improvement_ isnt it?) doesn’t really count. We saw most of him, even if his face was partly covered.

Royston Merchant we saw in the final season.

Robin Masters appeared occasionally, played by Orsen Wells. At least we saw him from the neck down.

[/nitpick]
