Brent Spiner once played 3 roles on an episode of "STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION". Besides his regular role of Data, he also played his evil brother Lore and their creator Dr. Noonian Sing. And he also played Lore in a couple other episodes.
On the finale of "STAR TREK: VOYAGER" Kate Mulgrew, who played Capt Katherine Janeway, also played her future self; ADMIRAL Katherine Janeway. Once on "STAR TREK: DEEP SPACE 9" Jonathan Frakes, who played Lt. William Riker on "TNG" guest-stared as Rikers evil clone who was created as the result of a transporter malfunction. On "STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION" Denise Crosby who played Lt. Tasha Yar in the first season guest-stared as her in a second season episode then later played her twin sister in a couple episodes. William Shatner who, of course played Capt. James Tiberious Kirk on "STAR TREK" once also played an evil duplicate of Kirks, created by a transporter malfunction. And in another episode he played an alien who made himself look just like Kirk. And in yet ANOTHER episode he played an android duplicate of Kirks. |

once, on a "THE HONEYMOONERS" sketch on "THE JACKIE GLEASON SHOW" in the 50s, Jackie played Ralph and a gangster who looked just like him. (on that episode the show was done live, and they had to end the sketch abruptley when they ran out of time)
And in a christmas sketch of "THE HONEYMONERS" again in the 50s on "THE JACKIE GLEASON SHOW" he played Ralph of course; but he also played the other characters he did on the show. The sketch was a remake of one they had done earlier, when it was on The Dumont Network and was called "THE CALVACADE OF STARS". |

Linda Evans played "Krystle Carrington" as well as her impostor "Rita" on the ABC show "Dynasty" (and that is when it jumped the shark).
Lisa Hartman played "Ciji Dunne" and then her look-alike "Cathy Geary" on the CBS show "Knots Landing" (and that is when the show got better than ever!). |

There's probably been many on soaps over the years.
On Y&R: Jeanne Cooper has played Katherine Chancellor and Marge Cotrooke. Michelle Stafford has played Phyllis Newman and Sheila Carter. Currently, Stacy Haiduk is playing Patty Williams and Emily Peterson, and Tracey E. Bregman is playing Lauren Fenmore and Sarah Smythe/Sheila Carter. I never watched Days, but I know Eileen Davidson played multiple characters. |
