The 10 Best TV Cameos

The 10 Best TV Cameos

There?s always moment when I?m watching a TV show and a random celebrity cameo happens, some of them are good and some of them are horrific. Anyway, UGO have come up with a list of the 25 best cameos in TV history. Here is the top 10, you can see the full list here.

10. The Cast of Star Trek on Futurama

Anything goes with the head-in-a-jar plot device of Futurama, including for those who had already passed on by the time the technology?d been invented. And while Leonard Nimoy appeared to christen Futurama?s pilot, his Star Trek castmates later joined him for the series? most beloved tribute to Trek yet, save for the late DeForrest Kelley and James Doohan, who turned down the opportunity.

09. Sinbad and Rob Thomas on It?s Always Sunny in Philadelphia

Who among us has not slipped into a fever dream while imagining ourselves in a mental hospital, hallucinating agressive projections of Sinbad and Rob Thomas as happened to Always Sunny?s Dennis during his efforts to gain material for his memoirs? The pair?s manic threats turned out to all be in Dennis? mind, having never gone to the hospital at all?or did he?

08. Katee Sackhoff on The Big Bang Theory

Along with occasional visits from George Takei, life in Wolowitz? conscious mind must be pretty sweet, to take baths with Katee Sackhoff or even just lounge around in her Battlestar Galactica attire whenever encountering a moral dilemma. Bonus points to to Summer Glau for popping up as herself on a train for an episode of The Big Bang Theory.

07. The Cast of Seinfeld on Curb Your Ethusiasm

Curb Your Enthusiasm has seen Larry David interacting with a fair amount of celebrities, but none so prolific as when the seventh season found an in-universe way to bring together the entire Seinfeld cast for a supposed reunion, which gave us the closest thing to a real Seinfeld ending since the controversial prison finale.

06. Patrick Stewart on Extras

Between Sir Ian McKellen, Orlando Bloom and Daniel Radcliffe, every star that visited Extras proved more bizarre and depraved than the last, but none so much as Patrick Stewart and his Oscar-winning movie pitches.

05. George Takei on Will and Grace

Ever the good sport, George Takei takes no issues delivering a cameo that plays off his role as Mr. Sulu on Star Trek, taking comedic turns on The Big Bang Theory, Futurama and Will and Grace. Even Heroes got in on the action, by giving his character?s license plate as ?NCC 1701.?

04. Johnny Carson on Newhart

Proving what the characters had been claiming for years, the friendship between Johnny Carson and Bob Newhart came to a head when the former dropped by Newhart to prove that he had in fact paid Larry, Darryl and Darryl?s gas bill, though the reasoning was never quite explained.

03. Everyone on 30 Rock

30 Rock practically owns the celebrity cameo, but makes its own rules when it comes to addressing star status. Celebrities and famous movies can be referenced over and over again, but no one will bat an eyelash if Matt Damon suddenly shows up as an airline pilot. The show has had some great ones over the years, from Jerry Seinfeld shamelessly plugging Bee Movie, to John Lithgow lost in the building to the star-studded ?Kidney Now,? and shows no signs of stopping, meta or otherwise in the future.

02. Celebrities on The Simpsons

You couldn?t pick just one celebrity off The Simpsons, who in 25 years have managed to include just about every star under the sun making an appearance in Springfield, be it as themselves or original characters. Notable examples would include such geek icons as Mark Hamill, Lucy Lawless, the above musicians, Leonard Nimoy, and even former Simpsons writer Conan O?Brien!

01. Entourage

Entourage being what it is, the show makes an art form out of the celebrity cameo, taking most any excuse to give a celebrity a guest turn. We?ve seen Mandy Moore as the female lead of Aquaman, and Bob Saget as an overzealous neighbor begging Vince not to f#ck his daughters. Perhaps most iconic was the appearance of Marky Mark himself, producer on whom the show was originally based.
