I've been watching old episodes of The Larry Sanders Show recently, and three nights in a row I saw TP actors.  The first was Ian Buchanan as a substitute producer standing in for Rip Torn's character, Artie. The next night it was Ray Wise playing Larry's lawyer (!), and the night after that it was Warren Frost playing Larry's cranky father.  I guess these probably ran in 1992-93.  Oh, and of course Duchovny was on TLSS several times, (he and Garry Shandling being basketball buddies.)  Shandling really dipped into the TP's pot!  

The week before I was watching a John Schlesinger movie from the 70's, Yanks, and there was Everett McGill as a racist southerner beating up a black soldier for dancing with a white woman in England during WWII.  

Rewatching Ep. 15, the entrance of Clarence Williams III as FBI agent Roger Hardy reminded me of him and Peggy Lipton in the Mod Squad on TV in the late 60's/early 70's...how funny it would have been had Lynch cast Michael Cole somewhere as well.  But he did cast Michael Parks, who starred in Then Came Bronson back in 1969-70.  Parks and his Harley Davidson made my teenage heart flutter!

kyle mclachlan as claudius in hamlet (interesting sidenote: sam shepard played ethan hawke's dead father in both hamlet and snow falling on cedars). sheryl lee in vampires and mother night. ray wise in the journey of natty gann. russ tamblyn in a few episodes of joan of arcadia. david patrick kelly in the crow. and who could forget robyn lively in teen witch and the karate kid III. i could have sworn john boylan played the old homeless guy in groundhog day, but imdb says no. and if the internet says it it must be true. madchen amick in dream lover. david duchovny had a hilarious part in the final episode of the larry sanders show. oh, and he was in kalifornia. of course these aren't all my favorites, just ones that stick out in my mind. if i cold only have one favorite it would be kalifornia. if i could have two more they would be hamlet and of mice and men (sherilynn fenn). oh, and pretty much anything with michael parks. especially the kill bills. dammit, this is hard.

holy crap, i totally forgot about harry dean stanton in cool hand luke. and pretty in pink. and pretty much anything kiefer sutherland has ever been in. and the chris isaak show.
