TV characters that were played by at least two actors - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

In the soaps, sitcoms and night time dramas, we sometimes have to do a second take and say "hey, who is that?" not realizing that is the person we have seen on our screens for years only with a new face. Actor have left roles due to quiting or being fired. Name some characters that have had more than one actor play the role. Characters that are/were played by twins are acceptable as well.

Yeah I was thinking that, too. Would the original poster have any problem with us limiting this topic to just sitcoms?
