What's the most surprised you've ever been at a (non SIMPSONS) TV guest star?

Of course, that just led me to wonder why with such parents, Chandler looks like such a goof. With that genetic advantage, you’d think he’d be gorgeous.

Puts me in mind of a bit from Rosanne, talking about their bisexual friend, played by Sandra Bernhard: “Why is it that, when you date girls, they look like her [Morgan Fairchild], and when you date guys, the look like Arnie [Tom Arnold]?”

Agreed on Suzanne Pleshette on Newhart.

How about Barbra Streisand showing up during “Coffee Talk” on SNL?

This reminded me of seeing Will Arnett on a L&O: SVU rerun, playing a pedophile. By the time I saw it, he was firmly established in my mind as Gob Bluth. I think he’s one of those actors, like Leslie Nielsen, who won’t ever be able to go back to straight drama.

Maybe it wasn’t surprising…but Kevin Bacon on Will and Grace was good…

KB: Val Kilmer says that when you lose your stalkers, you career is over

Gay guy who isn’t Will: You were in a movie with Val Kilmer?

KB: No, but I was in ‘A Few Good Men’ with Tom Cruise who was in ‘Top Gun’ with Val…hmm…that was a short one
I personally hate Will and Grace with a passion, but I heard that joke and actually laughed.

My understanding is that Mike Myers, Roseanne Barr, and Madonna (the three ladies gabbing on Coffee Talk) were as surprised as the audience.

Right. Producer Loren Michaels didn’t tell anyone she was going to be there. Everyone backstage was also totally surprised when she came out of his office and started walking towards the stage.

ETA: Last night I saw a Law & Order: SVU rerun where the rapist/murderer was played by Kal Pann (now Dr. Kutner on House). He was working as a janitor for his father the doctor.Talk about having your jaw just drop.

How come nobody has mentioned Wayne Brady on HIMYM as Barney’s brother.

Not enough :eek::confused::p:D in the universe for that one.

Then there was Adrienne Clarkson on Corner Gas, living every Canadian’s dream.
