I tried very hard on this one - we have no duplicates of cast members! I actually had to look up cast members of SCTV to find one. So, I submit:

1. Groundhog Day - Robin Duke (played the waitress).

Robin Duke was actually in more episodes of SCTV than Harold Ramus or Rick Moranis.

Next up: Not exactly conventional Musicals

1. Little Shop of Horrors

Worth noting that Harold Ramis wrote and co-starred in _Stripes_ (which also featured Candy, Flaherty, and Thomas) and wrote and directed _Groundhog Day_ (which featured Duke).
