BFTD Posted May 9 Share Posted May 9 Is The X-Files one of those programmes that had cameos from other shows' characters? I think it was St Elsewhere that people realised was technically part of every other show ever made, because it had characters from other shows, and those other shows had characters from other shows, and so on. That seems to be really common with American TV; I remember Friends having a (thankfully) brief cameo from Robin Williams and Billy Crystal as characters from some film that they were promoting at the time. Richard Belzer appeared as Detective John Munch in ten different shows across five TV networks, apparently including (as I've just found out)...The X-Files. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if it’s much of a thing anymore but American sitcoms seemed to be particularly bad for cameos of characters from other shows. There’s 2-3 instances of the Friends characters popping up in different sitcoms at the time. Definitely not trying to boost the ratings of new/bad shows… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tongue_tied_danny Posted May 16 Author Share Posted May 16 Could be wrong, but I vaguely recall a Home and Away character popping up in Neighbours. I could be talking shite. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BFTD Posted May 17 Share Posted May 17 Chernobyl's just a non-stop parade of recognisable faces for people from the UK, but I've had it playing in the background today and I'd either forgotten (or didn't know at the time) that it featured Jessie Buckley and Barry Keoghan. Some casting on that show. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
