Ok, I know that Fred Gwynne and Al Lewis worked together on more than one show together (Car 54 and The Munsters). Jack Klugman and Garry Walberg worked together (The Odd Couple, as Oscar and Speed, and then on Quincy as Quincy and Lt. Monahan). Are there any other stars that you can think of that worked together on more than 1 show? I'm not talking about spinoffs either. That would be too obvious. I am sure there are more, but at the moment, this is all I could think of.

In 1994, Roseanne and Tom Arnold appeared on General Hospital, in scenes with Luke and Laura. Not long after, Genie Francis and Tony Geary (L&L) appeared on an episode of Roseanne.

Mary Tyler Moore (Mary) and Cloris Leachman (Phyllis) crossed over to Rhoda, just in time for Phyllis to nearly ruin Rhoda's wedding!!

Chris Noth (Mike Logan) of Law & Order shared a few scenes with guest star Cynthia Nixon in the first season. Years later, of course, the two were co-stars in Sex and the City.

Barbara Stuart (Sgt. Carters girlfriend Bunny) was also a regular on that show.

Are you sure? The only source I have to go by at the moment is IMDb & there's no mention of Barbara being on the show at all, Not even as a guest star. According to them, The regulars were Jim, Frank, Ronnie & Karen Morrow. Of course we all know how unreliable IMDb is at times so let's assume for now that you are correct.

I'm pretty sure. I have a good memory for those things; and I'm pretty sure I remember her. But then; I haven't seen the show since it was first on, so I could be wrong.

Victor French appeared on Bonanza at least 5 times and on Gunsmoke at least 18 times. I know that for this thread though, his appearance on Bonanza is what matters since that is the show that Michael Landon appeared in.

What other network was it on?Yep.They sure were.And "Matlock" ran on NBC from 1986 to 1992,( the best epiasodes of the series,by the way)and then,in 1992,it aired on ABC(mistake-because except for a few episodes which were really good,most of the ABC episodes were subpar and paled in comparison to the NBC episodes),and ran until 1995.

My man Gregory Sierra appeared on a lot of shows and often worked with the same people more than once. Here are some examples:

- Gregory Sierra and Howard Platt both appeared on Sanford and Son (as Julio and Officer Hoppy, respectively). Mr. Platt guested on Mr. Sierra's next series Barney Miller, as an obscene phone caller that Chano arrested. Hal Williams (Officer Smitty) appeared with GS in an episode of Gunsmoke.

- GS guested as a doctor on Growing Pains. Years later, he guested on Kirk Cameron's WB show Kirk, also as a doctor.

- GS and Liz Torres appeared together in episodes of Blue Thunder and City (the latter starring Valerie Harper). He also appeared in Valerie's TV movie Farrell For the People, a failed pilot about a female DA.

-GS and Ron Glass appeared together on an episode of Hawaii Five-O before co-starring on Barney Miller. GS and Five-O co-star James MacArthur also were both in the TV flick The Night the Bridge Fell Down.

-GS and Mary Carver were guest stars on an Ironside episode, and years later he would guest (twice!) on Simon & Simon. Mary Carver, of course, played Mother Simon. Speaking of S&S, GS and Gerald McRaney also guest starred on the same episode of Gunsmoke (the same episode that also featured Hal Williams).

GS became a regular on the short-lived CBS series Zorro & Son in the early 1980s. Henry Darrow played Zorro. GS played a guest role in Mr. Darrow's earlier series, The High Chapparal.

GS and Roscoe Lee Browne appeared together on a first season episode of Barney Miller. In the 1980-81 TV season, both became regulars on Soap.

Charles Fleischer also appeared on a first season Barney Miller, and he and GS both acted on the same episode of Hart to Hart a few years later.

GS and Rene Enriquez appeared together in episodes of Police Story, Hart to Hart and Hill Street Blues.

GS guest starred in a memorable episode of All in the Family - and years later appeared in Sally Struthers' spinoff series, Gloria.

GS and Belinda Montgomery were both original cast members of Miami Vice - before that, they both appeared on the same episode of Police Story.

GS and Dick O'Neill appeared together in two Barney Miller episodes. Mr. O'Neill played the dad of Sgt. Cagney on Cagney & Lacey. GS made two guest appearances on that show.

Miriam Colon played Julio's sister on an episode of Sanford & Son. Years later, she and GS appeared on the same episode of Murder She Wrote.

GS and Shelley Morrison also appeared on the same episodes of Murder She Wrote and Flying Nun.

This list doesn't even count people he appeared with on TV and then movies! What an awesome filmography. :thumbsup:
