Do these count?

Fran Drescher also reprised her role of Bobbi Fleckman from the 1984 film This Is Spinal Tap and made a cameo appearance as herself in the third to last episode. Charles Shaughnessy also had a double role as a foreign sultan in one episode as well.

The Brady Bunch Peter played another boy who looked just like him from his school.

The Three Stooges Curley portayed a passenger instead of a Stooge brother.

The Bob Newhart Show & Newhart Dick Louden was Bob Heartly.

The Golden Girls Dorothy was Sophia’s Mother.

Marie was On Growing Pains Than On Just The 10 Of us. Than was back on Growing Pains as a New Character.

Growing Pains & Just The 10 Of Us I believe it was a dream sequence where the actors/actresses portrayed there Character and themselves.

Vickie also played Thelma's mother (as a ghost), and a younger version of Thelma in a flashback.
