All right, you guys. Name cast members (Lead and supporting) that have sung the theme songs to their own shows. Example:

Bobcat Goldwait aka Mr. Floppy (Unhappily Ever After)
Loretta Chandler aka Dusty Tyler (Fame)

Name the show actor, the show and the character that they play(ed).

Janet DuBois didn't sing the Good Times theme. She sang The Jeffersons theme, but she played Wilona on Good Times.
