A great honor for anyone working on a parody is when the creator or anyone else involved with the original goes beyond granting the parodist permission (and even enjoying said work) and instead actually helps them out with their parody. This can be as simple as lending sets or as drastic as directly working with the parodist, such as singing in a duet. Related to Adam Westing, an actor's Self-Parody of either his most famous role, his Old Shame, or his Typecasting. Also related to Approval of God, when a work's author approves the fandom's parodies (although that applies to Fan Works as well), and to Actually Pretty Funny, when a parody's target thinks the parody itself to be just that.

Jesse Cox's "Gentleman's Gaming Club" video on Control features an intro done in the style of the game's cutscenes, and includes Courtney Hope herself reprising her role as Jesse Faden. Given that Control already makes heavy use of live-action cutscenes, it looks and sounds almost exactly like the real thing. | |

This trope was actually subverted in the film adaptation of Bye Bye Birdie, where Elvis Presley expressed interest in playing Conrad Birdie, a pretty transparent caricature of Elvis, but was vetoed by his manager Colonel Tom Parker, who didn't want Elvis to be playing a role that parodied him. The part of Conrad would eventually go to Jesse Pearson instead. | |

The Simpsons: "E-I-E-I-(Annoyed Grunt)", The B-52s parody their own "Love Shack" as "Glove Slap", while the later episodes "Three Gays of the Condo" and "Large Marge" featured Jackson Browne and the Baha Men parodying their own respective work. In "Angry Dad: The Movie", not only did Nick Park voice himself in the setup to the Wallace & Gromit parody Willis & Crumble in Better Gnomes and Gardens, the stop motion animation team included Teresa Drilling, a regular member of the Aardman Animations crew who was a key animator on The Curse of the Were-Rabbit. "Steal This Episode" contains a gag where the government hires Judas Priest to get Homer into their custody for digital piracy, with frontman Rob Halford singing a piracy-themed version of "Breaking the Law". The layout artists from The Ren & Stimpy Show worked on the R&S parody scene in "Brother from the Same Planet". "Sideshow Bob Roberts" has a scene where Bart plays with a Flintstones toy phone, which features Henry Corden as the voice of Fred Flintstone. "Treehouse of Horror XXVIII" includes a Coraline parody in which Neil Gaiman voices Snowball II. "Homer at the Bat" features the song "Talkin' Softball", a parody of "Talkin' Baseball" sung by the original artist, Terry Cashman himself. "Three Men and a Comic Book" has Bart having an Inner Monologue moment ala The Wonder Years, with Daniel Stern as the narrator. "Bart the Bad Guy" is centered around a parody of Avengers: Endgame and has multiple people who work with the Marvel Cinematic Universe guest starring, such as Endgame's directors The Russo Brothers as the Marble Studios executives, Marvel Studios' president Kevin Feige as Chinnos (the Marble version of Thanos), and Cobie Smulders as Hydrangea, one of the main characters of Vindicators: Crystal War and its sequel. "Little Big Mom" has the Virtual Doctor software, with the titular doctor speaking in the same manner as America Online's famous voice notifications ("You've got mail"), voiced by the actual America Online voice guy himself, Elwood Edwards. ("You've got... leprosy.") In "Large Marge" and "Thank God It's Doomsday", The Baha Men have appeared performing a parody of their hit song "Who Let the Dogs Out". "Bart's in Jail" features a cameo of Bill Cipher voiced by his creator and voice actor, Alex Hirsch. "Treehouse of Horror XXXIII" features the Death Note parody "Death Tome", whose Animesque animation was done by DR Movie, who worked on the anime (specifically, they did background art, clean-up and in-between animation). In "King-Size Homer", the producers hired Joan Kenley, the actual voice actor behind countless automated phone messages, to provide the prerecorded response we hear when Homer tries to call the nuclear power plant ("The fingers you have used to dial are too fat"). "Behind The Laughter" extensively parodies Behind the Music. Jim Forbes guested as the narrator, and the Behind the Music producers let the Simpsons animators use their graphics package to get the look just right. |

Roseanne: The episode "Sherwood Schwartz: A Loving Tribute" featured a parody sequence with the cast playing the characters of Gilligan's Island. In The Tag, the surviving cast members of Gilligan's Island returned the favor. Lecy Goranson played the role of Becky for the first five seasons. Sarah Chalke took over the role for the 6th and 7th seasons. Lecy Goranson returned to the role in the 8th season, and Sarah Chalke took over again in the 9th season. When this was lampshaded at the end of the episode in which Goranson returned with the song "Identical Beckys", William Schallert appeared toward the end standing next to John Goodman. |

The Big Bang Theory has an episode where the characters celebrate May 4th, Star Wars Day, and Sheldon has a dream sequence where a recently deceased character plays Obi-Wan as his Spirit Advisor. Lucasfilm and Industrial Light & Magic gave support and helped them with building a Dagobah set as well as lightsaber effects. | |

Following the decline of FMW, IWA Japan and the rest of the garbage circuit, Kikutaro took up a gimmick of parodying wrestlers who managed to retain their popularity. All Japan teamed him up with Abdullah the Butcher and New Japan had him beaten by Jushin Thunder Liger but it really crossed into this trope when Mick Foley brought him out as "Ebessan Jack" to challenge Samoa Joe at Ring of Honor's third anniversary. | |

MAD has done this a few times: In the 70s, Jack Davis was drawing official Sesame Street art and working for MAD, so naturally he did MAD's Reality Street and Mafia Street spoofs. Chris Houghton, who has drawn for the Adventure Time comics, also drew the cover for issue 520, which included two riffs on Adventure Time. Dick DeBartolo, a fixture of the magazine, had to go uncredited for a Family Feud parody he wrote. Why? Because he was working for Goodson-Todman at the time, and had been since the 1960s, including the original run of Match Game and the 1970s revival. |

The sketch "McDuck Dynasty" also has Jeff Bergman reprising his roles as Daffy Duck (from The Looney Tunes Show and Tiny Toon Adventures) and Elmer Fudd (also from Tiny Toon Adventures). | |

They actually got Rob Paulsen and Maurice LaMarche to voice their respective characters. When the Critic listed the "Top 11" worst and best episodes of Avatar: The Last Airbender, Dante Basco reprised and parodied his role as Prince Zuko. And once more in his review of Inspector Gadget Saves Christmas, where an animated segment with Penny near the end was voiced by Cree Summer, reprising her role from the series after so many years. One of the commercial specials contains a parody of The Room (2003), with Greg Sestero reprising his role as Mark. After ripping on numerous Mara Wilson films, she actually appears in his video to take a few shots back at him by dredging up some of the terrible home movies he mad as a child. |

The Hollywood Squares has had a few parodies made aimed at them over the years, and given the show's comedic bent, it's natural the crew would want to parody themselves. Perhaps the most notable of these would be a series of skits from the final season of In Living Color! called the East Hollywood Squares with all-black celebrities; in this case, the skits were hosted by the original Master of the Squares himself, Peter Marshall. | |

Futurama: "The Deep South" is set in Atlanta, Georgia, which is now a submerged city filled with mer-people. Helping to explain this is Donovan, parodying his own song "Atlantis" as "Atlanta." "Where No Fan Has Gone Before" heavily parodies Star Trek: The Original Series, with the actors who played the main cast appearing as themselves. They are not shy about poking fun at themselves or each other. |

Not to be outdone, The Angry Video Game Nerd has had his own share of guest stars: In his episode dedicated to dunking on various Toxic Avenger video game adaptations, all of them bad of course, he actually got Lloyd Kaufman himself to help him rip them apart. Lloyd is even more critical of them than The Nerd. The Angry Video Game Nerd: The Movie features Howard Scott Warshaw, the actual developer of the infamous E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial, As Himself no less. Macaulay Culkin shows up at his door in one episode, disguised as a pizza boy, in order to pressure The Nerd into playing a bunch of terrible Home Alone video game adaptations. When reviewing Pepsiman, he gets Mike Butters (yes, that Mike Butters) to reprise his role as the TV game guy from the game and show up to save him from Pepsiman. When making fun of Jurassic Park: Trespasser, he actually gets Seamus Blackley, the game's producer who would go on create the Xbox, to not only answer some questions about it, but to help poke some fun at the game's infamously Troubled Production. His DOOM video guess stars the John Romero to reprise his roll as The Icon of Sin. |

In Code Geass, Emperor Charles makes a big speech early in the show about the inequality of mankind. Some joker of a Japanese fan took the manga version of the speech and edited it so that it was instead a speech extolling how awesome breasts are. Norio Wakamoto, Charles's voice actor, found out about it and made an official recording of it in the Emperor's voice. | |

Get Smart did two parodies of other Spy Fiction series that featured unbilled cameos by the actual stars of those shows. "Die, Spy" (based on I Spy) had a walk-on by Robert Culp as a Turkish waiter. In "Pheasant Under Glass" (based on Mission: Impossible), Maxwell Smart's identity as a spy is exposed, so a doctor uses "instant spray-on plastic surgery" to disguise him as Martin Landau. When the Chief points out that Landau is better-known than Max, Max (played by Landau, but dubbed over with Don Adams' voice) replies, "Never heard of him." |

In general, whenever somebody hosts Saturday Night Live, they'll participate in sketches that riff on their roles or works. In addition to the "Conspiracy Theory Rock" example in the Western Animation folder, there have been sketches where the hosts (usually movie or TV stars) reprise their famous characters for a parody sketch. Examples include: Jon Hamm as Don Draper for both a Mad Men parody called "Two A-Holes at an Ad Agency in the 1960s" note That sketch even had Elizabeth Moss and John Slattery from the actual series and a short film called "Don Draper's Guide to Picking Up Women." Daniel Radcliffe as a washed-up Harry Potter who's still living in Hogwarts years after graduating. David Duchovny as Agent Mulder in an X-Files parody cold open about a beast man attacking cast members. Zac Efron in a High School Musical parody where he comes back during graduation and tells the graduating class that the real world is not like High School Musical. John Malkovich as Vicomte Sébastien de Valmont in a Dangerous Liaisons stage show parody that takes place in a hot tub. John Malkovich again in an Of Mice and Men parody that had two guys who acted like Lennie instead of the Lennie and George pairing. Joe Pesci and Robert De Niro were also good sports when they appeared on "The Joe Pesci Show" on SNL and met their counterparts (Jim Breuer and Colin Quinn). Sarah Michelle Gellar played Buffy in a sketch where, rather than living in Sunnydale, she lives in New York and has Seinfeldian plots. A parody mashup of The Love Boat and Star Trek: The Next Generation had Patrick Stewart and Bernie Kopell playing their respective characters - Stewart as Capt. Picard and Kopell (the Doctor from The Love Boat) parodying DeForest Kelley's cameo as an elderly Dr. McCoy in the TNG pilot episode "Encounter At Farpoint". David Hasselhoff shows up on the set of Weekend Update seemingly obtuse about which country in Europe that Norm Macdonald wanted him to mention as visiting during his trip. Eventually Norm gets flustered and just writes down what he wants the Hoff to state. Martin Freeman as a character that was simultaneously Tim and Bilbo in a sketch set in an office in Middle Earth, with a boss who dresses like Gandalf but talks like David Brent. A Twin Peaks parody featured Kyle MacLachlan as a version of Dale Cooper who's having so much fun playing detective that he doesn't want to find out who killed Laura Palmer — so he ignores Leo Johnson's repeated confessions. Adam Driver portrayed his character Kylo Ren in a The Force Awakens-meets-Undercover Boss parody. Twice. Scarlett Johansson played Black Widow in a trailer for a Black Widow movie... as a romantic comedy. Similarly, Jeremy Renner reprised his role as Hawkeye for a sketch about how useless a man with a bow and arrow is during an full-scale alien invasion. Celebrity Jeopardy! normally has people doing impressions. However, for one of them, Tom Hanks appeared As Himself, being every bit as idiotic as the usual guest. A December 2020 segment parodied Eminem's "Stan" with Pete Davidson as a man named Stu sending increasingly erratic letters to Santa Claus (played by host Jason Bateman) asking for a PlayStation 5. At the end of the segment, we see who got the PS5 meant for Stu: Eminem (As Himself). Arnold Schwarzenegger memorably showed up in a "Hans and Franz" sketch, disparaging the duo as "girly men". Bill Paxton played Brock Lovett in a sketch that parodied Titanic (1997), where Lovett and his team beat up the elderly Rose because they were so bored with her story, which also had Titanic director James Cameron appearing in it, saying that this was an alternate ending that he scrapped. When Ray Romano hosted SNL, Peter Boyle and Doris Roberts, who played his parents on Everybody Loves Raymond, appeared during the opening monologue, channeling their roles from that show as Peter talked about his own experience hosting SNL in the 1970s and Doris talked about the movie My Giant. One "Judge Judy" sketch ended with the real Judge Judy walking into the courtroom, telling Cheri Oteri "Get your bony ass out of my chair" then proceeding to give the same ridiculous ruling one would expect from Oteri's Judge Judy. The recurring "What's up with that" sketch always ends with Lindsey Buckingham (played by Bill Hader) not being given a chance to talk. Eventually the real Lindsey Buckingham appeared alongside Hader's. The page image is of Nicolas Cage appearing along Andy Samberg in the "Weekend Update" segment "Get In The Cage", with Andy playing the "actual" Nic Cage and the actual Nic playing a clone of Nic Cage. A parody of The Last of Us (2023) applying the tropes of both the show and the game it is based on to Mario Kart included Pedro Pascal (the actor of Joel in the actual series) as Mario. When Val Kilmer hosted SNL, he poked fun at his portrayal of The Doors frontman Jim Morrison in a Behind the Music parody where Morrison puts together a supergroup comprised of other deceased music stars in Heaven. The December 10, 2022 show co-hosted by Steve Martin and Martin Short had them reprising their roles of George Banks and Franck in a sketch for a trailer for Father Of The Bride Part 8. |

Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers had Moving Picture Company recreating some of their old effects in a mocking way, like Baloo, the Bat-Armor, the cats from Cats, and most notably, the "Ugly Sonic" that was tossed out of Sonic the Hedgehog (2020), which the director noted as MPC having to "repeat their mistakes on purpose this time." In addition, the brief scene with the My Little Pony cast was done by Top Draw, who worked heavily on that incarnation of the show. | |

Robot Chicken gets a surprising number of actors and actresses to reprise their famous roles for skits that parody their films. Among some of them them are: Billy Dee Williams, Mark Hamill, Ahmed Best, and even George Lucas himself for Star Wars sketches. Bob Bergen, the current voice of Porky Pig, reprises his role as Porky for at least two sketches. The main cast from the Scooby-Doo live-action films. Frank Welker voicing Megatron, Soundwave, and Doctor Claw. Cree Summer reprised her role as Penny for an Inspector Gadget/The Terminator crossover skit. Jon Berg, who did much of the stop motion effects for the original Star Wars films, did the stop motion animation for the Nerd in his Tauntaun costume in the second Star Wars special. Christopher Lloyd played Doc Brown in a couple of the Back to the Future sketches. Stan Lee appeared as himself several times. Dave Foley voiced Flik again in a Bug's Life sketch. Patrick Stewart occasionally appears to play Captain Jean-Luc Picard in Star Trek sketches. Dante Basco voiced Zuko again in an Avatar sketch. Rachael Leigh Cook, who starred in a famous anti-drug Public Service Announcement in the '90s where she smashes a kitchen up with a frying pan, voiced the same character in a parody of such where she turns into an unhinged psychopath. Tom Hanks's brother Jim Hanks, who is the official understudy voice actor of Woody reprised his role for the Toy Story Meets Pinko sketch. |

The first season of The Late Show (1992) had a recurring Gag Dub sketch called The Olden Days, based on Rush (1974). In the season finale, the stars of Rush, Brendon Lunney and John Waters (1948), appeared in the studio for a brief scene where they dubbed over Tony Martin and Mick Molloy. Similarly, the second season had a Gag Dub sketch called Bargearse, based on the cop show Bluey (1976), whose star Lucky Grills appeared in the studio audience at one point to call them out on taking the piss out of him every week. | |

The Chalkeaters: Gabe Newell recorded video clips for "Count To Three", as shown at the opening and closing of the song. According to a community post, he also recorded some verses, but requested that they be cut due to his dissatisfaction with his performance. Ellen McLain also reprises her role as GLaDOS. Crush 40 vocalist Johnny Gioeli himself did the vocals for the Sonic the Hedgehog parody song "Crushing Thirties", which is itself an upbeat rock piece styled after Crush 40's other songs for the franchise, only with a cynical undertone commenting on Sonic's miserable life going into adulthood. |

Family Guy has had several actors lend their voices to parodies of shows or movies they were in. Meredith Baxter and Michael Gross reprised their roles as Elise and Steven Keaton in a Family Ties parody. Mark Hamill was Luke Skywalker in a Star Wars parody. Frank Welker voiced Fred in a Scooby-Doo parody. The live-action re-enactment of the All Just a Dream Wham Shot from Dallas has Patrick Duffy and Victoria Principal reprising their roles. George Lucas backed Family Guy's Star Wars retellings as he's a fan of the show. Almost subverted in the case of Carrie Fisher, who initially refused to be part of the parody, assuming she'd be asked to play Leia again. However, she got on board when she was told that she'd still be playing Angela, which was her normal role on the show. |

Schoolhouse Rock! actor Jack Sheldon has done this many times. The Simpsons episode "The Day the Violence Died" contained a parody of "I'm Just a Bill" with Sheldon singing it. Sheldon lent his voice to Family Guy's parodies of SHR, as well. Johnny Bravo had an episode titled "The Sensitive Male" where Johnny tries to get a date with a girl who likes sensitive guys. A man (voiced by Jack Sheldon) comes along and, in a parody of Schoolhouse Rock!, offers Johnny lessons on how to be a kind and sensitive guy. |

Dragon Ball Z's Buu Saga has an infamous scene where the characters see a "re-enactment" of the Cell Games, a painfully cheesy film that paints Mr. Satan as the hero who saved the world. When Funimation got to this episode in Dragon Ball Z Kai The Final Chapters, they hired Team Four Star to dub the sequence, which was packed full of references not just to Dragon Ball Z Abridged but also to a number of infamous DBZ memes. The scene only aired on Toonami once due to Toei (who aren't too fond of TFS, or parodies and fanworks in general) ordering Funimation to get rid of it, but it can still be found on YouTube. | |

Les Guignols de l'Info: For the twentieth birthday edition, real celebrities came, said they looked nothing like their puppets... while acting like them. For instance anchorman Marc-Olivier Fogiel kept the same hyena and Evil Laugh, and sport anchorman Nelson Monfort his puppet's Gratuitous English. Some politicians also commented on their alter ego. | |

One of the bonus features on the DVD box set for the final season of Breaking Bad was a joke "alternate ending" where it's revealed that the entire show was All Just a Dream that Hal from Malcolm in the Middle (Bryan Cranston's second-most-famous character) had one night, complete with Jane Kaczmarek reprising her role as Lois as she tells a panicked Hal to go back to sleep. | |

The Wander over Yonder episode "The Cartoon" featured a parody of fellow Disney series Gravity Falls with Jason Ritter, Kristen Schaal and Alex Hirsch voicing the expies of their respective characters. Said parody was also partly a Scooby-Doo cartoon, hence why Frank Welker voices the narrator. | |

In "Pheasant Under Glass" (based on Mission: Impossible), Maxwell Smart's identity as a spy is exposed, so a doctor uses "instant spray-on plastic surgery" to disguise him as Martin Landau. When the Chief points out that Landau is better-known than Max, Max (played by Landau, but dubbed over with Don Adams' voice) replies, "Never heard of him." | |

TV Funhouse: In a segment of "The X-Presidents", SpongeBob SquarePants is hired to promote propaganda endorsing The War on Terror, until he ends up backing out due to how crude and xenophobic the script is. SpongeBob in the sketch is voiced by his actual voice actor from the original show, Tom Kenny. | |

The Simpsons' Treehouse of Horror: One issue tells the story of Homer becoming a terrible blob creature made out of Squishee drink, in a very obvious Swamp Thing homage ("Squish Thing"). So who did they get to write and draw said story? Len Wein and Bernie Wrightson, the duo who created Swamp Thing to begin with! | |
