The Pete Best	comment	Who? A subtrope of Suspiciously Similar Substitute and/or The Other Darrin, wherein one actor is in a role or position, then is dropped (or leaves voluntarily) for another actor who is the one everyone remembers after the work/group becomes famous. Named for Pete Best, the first drummer of The Beatles, who was replaced by Ringo Starr just before they hit it big, with Ringo having suddenly become available after leaving another band. Less likely in the film industry (since you can only get one actor to play a role, any replacement will have to reshoot the scenes and become The Other Marty), more likely in theater, television, and music. If the guy is in the band when they are famous, but all but forgotten, that person's Stuck in Their Shadow. If the guy never had a chance of becoming famous anyway, that's Breakup Breakout. If the band tries to avoid talking about the guy in the event he is brought up or tries to take down any uploaded footage of the period he was with them, he is an Old Shame. If their successor ends up more remembered, it is a case of More Popular Replacement. As a final thought, notice that in Real Life this trope is quite common since music groups or any team whose future success is not clear normally go through a series of line-up changes. NOTE: Please add only sentient beings to the Real Life folder. Compare other tropes surrounding changes in performers and characters, such as The Other Marty, Dropped After the Pilot and Second Episode Introduction. Contrast Lesser Star.

From 1973 to 1978, it was hosted by singer/comedian Don Bowman, whose run has been forgotten.

Robert Spencer, who promptly got a Tony nomination and a whole lot of notoriety. Another Brian d'Arcy James example: few people seem to remember that he originated the role of King George III in Hamilton while it was off-Broadway. He was replaced by the much more celebrated Jonathan Groff when the show moved onto Broadway, though James would play King George later on in the Broadway run.

That's pretty much all he's known for now. The fact that his powers were largely the same as the Beast probably didn't help his case. Although Sunfire fits the trope even better, since he voluntarily left the team in the issue immediately following the first adventure.

It doesn't help that most of his run has been erased. He is also a further zig-zag, as he hosted the very first pilot in 1973 (under the Working Title Shopper's Bazaar), while Edd "Kookie" Byrnes hosted the second and third pilots.

However, half of the original cast also makes up a portion of retroactive recognition - Captain Carl was played by Phil Hartman (who had also helped create Pee Wee Herman) and Dixie was played by Johann Carlo.

The Pete Best / int_22ab4e72	comment	While Lingo is most well-known by Americans for its 2002-07 run on GSN with iconic host Chuck Woolery (and the short-lived dirty-minded 2011 reboot hosted by Bill Engvall), it actually began as a Ralph Andrews production from 1987-88, hosted originally by Michael Reagan (Ronald Reagan's son) and later (the last five weeks) by Andrews himself. The GSN version itself has an example. There was no hostess or announcer in the first season. Season 2 had Randy Thomas (best known as the voice of Hooked on Phonics commercials) as the announcer, but no hostess. In Season 3, Stacey Hayes joined as a hostess (with modeling assistance from Paula Cobb on the first two taped episodes) while also taking over as announcer, before Shandi Finessey took over the hostess/announcer role for the rest of the run.

The Pete Best / int_22e860f4	comment	The pilot episode of Psych had a character named Lucinda Barry, who was Carlton Lassiter's partner. She was more lenient of Shawn Spencer's antics to contrast with her partner's straight-laced attitude. Episode 2 replaced her with Juliet O'Hara as Lassie's new partner for the rest of the series, eventually becoming Shawn's Love Interest. Justified in-universe, since it was explained that Lucinda was transferred to a different branch following the first episode's revelation that she and Lassie had been having an affair.

The Pete Best / int_239762d5	comment	A number of Iron Chefs are "the Pete Best" because of how the English dub was handled: The first dubbed episodes were from the last two seasons, featuring the lineup of veteran Chinese chef Kenichi Chin (credited in the English dub of the show as Chen Kenichi, family name first even though the other chefs were credited Western-style with their given name first), French chef Hiroyuki Sakai, then-new Japanese-American fusion chef Masaharu Morimoto (the third Iron Chef Japanese), and Italian chef Masahiko Kobe (by far the youngest of the Iron Chefs, 26 at the time of his appointment, 28 in the earliest dubbed episodes at which time he had already been on the show for 2 years). Later, the decision was made to dub a new order of episodes starting with the second season, featuring the lineup of Sakai and Chin with Iron Chef Japanese I, Rokusaburo Michiba. Not shown in the English dub except for a single episode (in which he lost) was Iron Chef French I, Yutaka Ishinabe, who left the show after a single season because he disliked the artificial pacing of Reality Television, and not shown until very late in the show's run was Iron Chef Japanese II, Koumei Nakamura, appearing in seasons 4 and 5 after Michiba's departure from the series. Until late, most American viewers had little idea that Nakamura had been part of the show for two years, as Morimoto was depicted as being Michiba's direct successor.

The Pete Best / int_261c8d3f	comment	The Simpsons: Otto in "A Streetcar Named Marge", where director Llewellyn Sinclair took him out of the cast of "Oh! Streetcar!" just before the opening performance, replacing him in the part of Pablo with himself. The episode "Homer's Barbershop Quartet" is a deliberate spoof on the Beatles' career, with Chief Wiggum playing the role of Pete Best and Barney Gumble (who turns out to have a breathtaking singing voice) as Ringo Starr. Wiggum takes it poorly, repeatedly trying to either get back into the group or screwing them over (like trying to arrest them). In "Team Homer", Homer forms a bowling team with Moe, Apu, and Otto, with Homer getting the sponsorship money out of Mr. Burns while he's high on ether. When Mr. Burns finds out, he wants to join the team, so in order to appease him (and maintain their funding) Otto has to go. However, he still helps them win indirectly when he accidentally knocks over the bowling alley's prize-grabber machine, which causes a big enough impact that it knocks over Burns' pins and wins them the tournament.

The Pete Best / int_27831967	comment	Parks and Recreation had its own "Pete Best" with Paul Schneider, who played Mark Brendanawicz in the first two seasons. The character was pretty widely disliked by the fans for coming off as bland compared to the other characters while critics noted Schneider never seemed to quite fit in with the rest of the ensemble cast, and his status as the odd man out only became more obvious when the show began finding more of its own distinct identity away from its parent series. Eventually, Schneider left the show at the end of Season 2 (with Mark being Put on a Bus and never coming back) and was replaced with Adam Scott and Rob Lowe as the characters of Ben Wyatt and Chris Traeger respectively, who were an instant hit with fans as well as a perfect fit for the show's newfound style, rapidly becoming More Popular Replacements.

In a subsequent episode, the Rippers' members get a different guy as their lead singer and the band quickly becomes much more popular than the group ever was under Jesse's leadership, much to Jesse's immense exasperation for much of said episode.

Unfortunately, Dougherty's stutter was actually a little too pronounced, resulting in recording sessions taking three or four times longer than normal for a cartoon, and Friz Freleng eventually being forced to replace him with Mel Blanc in order to avoid being fired for running up excessive tape and studio costs. Elmer Fudd — or his prototype, Egghead — was originally voiced by Danny Webb, and later recast with Arthur Q. Bryan around the same time the character evolved to his definitive version.

After two different replacements (Michael Jolly and Michael Farmer) proved inadequate, Zax returned to his rightful place.

Anomie, an anonymous Internet troll and fan of cartoon The Ink Black Heart, called Seb Montgomery, an artist who helped with animating the first couple episodes of the cartoon, "the Pete Best of The Ink Black Heart." This is actually plot relevant, as Anomie's habit of making arcane Beatles references helps the protagonists, private detectives Cormoran Strike and Robin Ellacott, figure out his identity.

The Pete Best / int_34e78869	comment	The Rocker The whole plot revolves around this trope. Rainn Wilson plays Robert "Fish" Fishman, the drummer in an 80's glammetal band called Vesuvius. When his band gets signed, Fish gets dropped in favor of their producer's nephew. Despite his swearing to become even bigger than they do, he fails, until more than 20 years later when his nephew asks him to fill in for the drummer for his band, and they manage to hit it big, thanks largely to YouTube and a series of videos entitled The Naked Drummer. Pete Best even makes a cameo as himself.

The Pete Best / int_3aeb1c75	comment	Dragon Ball: The entire Ocean voice cast for Dragon Ball Z. Once associated as the voices of the series, that honor now goes to FUNimation's voice cast, who has completely replaced the former (with actors like Sean Schemmel and Chris Sabat instead of Ian Corlett and Brian Drummond). While Ocean did do their own dub of the second half of the series for Europe and Canada in association with AB Groupe, this has also been displaced by Funimation's version, which is all that's on DVD in those (and all English-speaking) territories. Within FUNimation's studios itself, their very first dub, Sleeping Princess in Devil's Castle, had several regulars like Christopher Sabat as Yamcha, Laurie Steele as Young Krillin, and Mike McFarland as Master Roshi, but also had several actors who would soon be replaced with cast members fans are much more familiar with. Kid Goku was originally voiced by Ceyli Delgadillo before Stephanie Nadolny and later Colleen Clinkenbeard handled him for more recent stuff, Leslie Alexander voiced Bulma in the dub before being replaced by Tiffany Volmer and later Monica Rial, and Launch had two different voice actresses for her good and bad sides (Monika Antonelli, the original Puar and Chiaotzu, was the good side, and Christine Marten, who has no other credits, was the bad side) while Meredith McCoy would provide the voice of both her personalities for the rest of her appearances. FUNimation also had a few cases of this in their first dubbed season of DBZ, which covered the "Ginyu" and "Freeza" arcs. Chris Cason (who also voices Shou in the franchise) was the original voice for both Tien Shinhan and Mr. Popo, but temporarily retired the following year, leaving the characters to be respectively recast with John Burgmeier and Christopher Sabat. While Cason returned to the role of Mr. Popo beginning in 2010 for Dragon Ball Z Kai, Burgmeier has continued to provide the voice for Tien. Dale Kelly was the original voice for Captain Ginyu in Funimation's dub, but 2 years later he was replaced with Brice Armstrong and after Armstrong's retirement R. Bruce Elliott. Lastly, Chris Sabat himself is the Pete Best for both Nappa and Raditz, providing their voices for a flashback in one episode, as well as providing the voice for the former in the original English dub of the Bardock TV special. In all future appearances in anime and video games, Phil Parsons has been Nappa, while Justin Cook (who is also the voice of Teen and Adult Dende as well as Super Buu) is Raditz. FUNimation's original voices for the Pilaf Gang for their appearances in the third Dragon Ball film were completely different than the usual voices that have played them in all other appearances. Pilaf was voiced by Mike McFarland rather than Chuck Huber, Justin Cook voiced Shou instead of Chris Cason (an inversion of his status as Tien), and Cynthia Cranz originally voiced Mai, while Julie Franklin handled her for the dub of the TV series and Colleen Clinkenbeard has provided her voice for all future appearances. For Dragon Ball Super most people attribute Matthew Mercer as the voice of Hit, but he was the second actor for the role. In his first English-speaking appearance in Dragon Ball Xenoverse 2, Aaron Roberts (who also voices Cae in the anime) provided Hit's voice, and Mercer took over for all subsequent appearances. In the Japanese version, Naoko Watanabe is best known as the voice of Chi-Chi, but Mayumi Sho voiced her in the original Dragon Ball and the first two seasons and three movies of Dragon Ball Z, before taking a hiatus from seiyuu work to care for her family. She very briefly returned to voice Chi-Chi in the first Budokai game, but otherwise, the role has long been associated with Watanabe (who also voices Puar). In the Latin American Spanish dub of DB, JesÃºs Barrero was the first voice actor of both Yamcha and Puar from their first appearance until episode 45, when he left and the roles were given to separate actors (Yamcha to Ricardo Mendoza, who continues on the role up to this day, and Puar to Cristina Camargo).

Music became Garfield's voice in 1982 starting with Here Comes Garfield. While Thom Huge did voice Jon Arbuckle in The Fantastic Funnies, the role was handed over to Sandy Kenyon for Here Comes Garfield, the first of the Garfield specials. Huge returned for the rest of the animated specials through Garfield Gets a Life in 1991, along with the entirety of Garfield and Friends (1988-1994).

The Pete Best / int_46518682	comment	Sesame Street: Practically every American under the age of 40 will immediately say "hey, it's Gordon!" upon seeing the face of Roscoe Orman, but most don't know that he was actually the fourth Gordon. Garrett Saunders originated the role in the first test episode in 1969, which only aired on one station, but was replaced by Matt Robinson for the actual series. note Saunders wasn't credited and his identity was lost for several decades until Sesame Workshop launched a website asking for help identifying him. Robinson left after three seasons; he did all right for himself, later working for Bill Cosby, and you've probably heard of his daughter - Holly Robinson-Peete. Hal Miller took over from 1972-74. In season three (1971-72), a bunch of new human characters was added. Luis is the only one still on the show. Maria continued to appear until season 45 (when Sonia Manzano retired), David was on for more than a decade (before his actor Northern Calloway ran into personal and health problems, then died). But Rafael (Luis' assistant at the Fix-It Shop), Molly (the mail carrier), and Tom (Mr. Hooper's assistant) all lasted just one season. But there's plenty of Retroactive Recognition for them: Rafael was played by RaÃºl JuliÃ¡, Molly by Charlotte Rae from The Facts of Life, and Tom by Larry Block, a character actor who's been in a million things since then.

The Pete Best / int_469771d2	comment	The Powerpuff Girls In the original shorts that aired as part of the What A Cartoon show, Bubbles was voiced by Kath Soucie rather than Tara Strong, who is much more commonly associated with the role. And prior to that, the show was merely a 1992 college project named "Whoopass Stew" with all the girls voiced by Jennifer Fried, and instead of the as-of-yet iconic Tom Kenny as the Narrator's voice, Craig McCracken himself provided the voice for his own production. In addition, Ernie Anderson was the narrator in the WAC shorts, but he had passed away by the time the TV series was greenlit, and Kenny was cast. In his first appearance, Gangrene Gang memner Lil' Arturo was voiced by Carlos Alazraqui. Tom Kenny voices him in all subsequent episodes. In a non-voice acting example, Townsville had a completely different mayor in the first WAC short. The character in that episode appeared to be modeled after Bill Clinton and was voiced by Jim Cummings. The classic Mayor (voiced by Tom Kenny) and Miss Bellum replaced him in the main TV show. This is also an example of Art Evolution as the earlier mayor had a more realistic look compared to the classic mayor, who's as stylized as the girls themselves.

The rhythm guitarist there is not the current rhythm guitarist, Toki Wartooth, but a man named Magnus Hammersmith. Hammersmith, we later learn, was kicked out of the band and replaced because he was a violent abusive asshole (which given what the rest of Dethklok is like means he must have been really bad). Predictably enough, he worms his way into a friendship with Toki, then literally stabs him in the back during the Revengencer attack. When Dethklok awakens the power of the Doomstar while rescuing Toki, Magnus realizes he was the villain the whole time and stabs himself.

When Mark Goodson wanted to revive Price in 1972, he had a clear set up in mind: weekly syndication, hosted by Dennis James and distributed by Viacom. Once CBS got wind of the revival, Bud Grant approached Goodson about doing a daytime show with Bob Barker as emcee. Barker wanted no part of it, not like those in charge of the revival, and begged Grant for another game show; Grant declined, which suggests that Barker's alleged backstage tyranny was payback for having the show forced on him. As for James, he did nighttime Price until 1977, when his contract expired, and Barker took over until its end in 1980. His version, along with those of Tom Kennedy (1985-86) and Doug Davidson (1994-95), are ignored in every way.

Before Sean Connery, there was an American actor, Barry Nelson, who played "Jimmy Bond" in an adaptation of Casino Royale for an anthology called Climax!, with the idea being for it to act also as a pilot for a possible TV Show based on James Bond. Nothing came out of it and eight years later came Dr. No and Barry Nelson (who was thirteen years older than Connery) wasn't even considered for the role. The movie pretty much made Sean Connery a star and relegated Barry Nelson's performance as Bond to total obscurity. The fact that the production was believed lost to time until a kinescope emerged in the 1980s didn't help much either.

Interestingly, this was a controversial recast in the day, as many fans were used to Daniel's voice, and had a hard time adjusting to Freeman; with how long Freeman has been in the role, however, nowadays people who haven't been watching since the beginning only see Cronin as Zelgadis' "old voice" when they watch the earlier episodes. The same could be said for Joan Baker as Amelia. Most people associate Veronica Taylor as the character's voice actress, not knowing there was another actress who had briefly voiced the character for her first three episodes. In addition, Luci Christian also briefly voiced the character for Slayers Premium, but her performance is usually also sidelined by Taylor's.

The Midnight Express was originally formed in a promotion called Southeastern Championship Wrestling as a three-man team consisting of Austin, Rose, and Dennis Condrey. The original team split in '83, and Dennis took the gimmick with him to Mid South Wrestling where he met up with Bobby Eaton and Jim Cornette. Condrey was in turn replaced a couple of years later by Stan Lane, and it's debated among fans to this day whether the Condrey/Eaton or Eaton/Lane version of the team was better. Rose eventually rejoined Condrey and they feuded with Eaton and Lane over who was the "real" Midnight Express, but Rose gets little recognition compared to Condrey Lane and Eaton, and Austin is a footnote.

The Pete Best / int_69d15cc0	comment	Marvel Cinematic Universe: It has had not one, but two actors portray Bruce Banner, everyone's favorite jolly green giant rageaholic. But Edward Norton, who originated the role for the franchise, is not the actor everyone associates with the role; that would be Mark Ruffalo, who took over the role for The Avengers and has played the character in every appearance since. James "Rhodey" Rhodes was played by Terrence Howard in Iron Man, but by the time Rhodey finally got to put on his War Machine armor in Iron Man 2, Howard had been replaced by Don Cheadle, who went on to play the role in every subsequent MCU appearance. This makes the scene in the first film where Terrence Howard's Rhodey says "Next time, baby" while looking enviously at the Mk. II armor he takes in the second film Hilarious in Hindsight.

The last two have quickly been forgotten, as Jones and Zurawski divorced early in the show's run (her role was briefly taken over by Jones' next girlfriend Violet Rinorea, and then by his second wife, Laura Luke Jones), and both Jerrid and Jake quit due to disputes with Jones. Subverted in the case of Foiles, who was the first to leave the show but would come back much later after he and Jones reconciled.

Cox's substantial roles in Rushmore, Super Troopers, X2: X-Men United, Red (2010), and the Bourne films have since made him a recognized character actor, but as Manhunter is far less known the other films (especially since the novel Red Dragon it was based on was later adapted a second time) and Hopkins' portrayal became so iconic, Cox carried the 'first to play Lecter' footnote for much of his career. Many still wonder what he could've done with the role if he'd been cast in the later films.

Ironically, Christopher had originally tested for the part, but instead of doing a table reading, ad-libbed much of his dialogue, which was unprofessional, and the part went to Morgan instead. Afterward, the producers decided Christopher's quirky personality was a better fit for Mulcahy, so they brought him back, on the condition that he would stick with the script.

Everyone will recall the lineup was Rowan Atkinson, Mel Smith, Pamela Stephenson, and Gryff Rhys-Jones. However, in the first series, Rhys-Jones was nowhere to be seen and the Pete Best of the group was Chris Langham, a comic actor and writer who performed creditably but left at the end of the series citing artistic differences. He was replaced by Rhys-Jones only at the start of the second series. The fact Langham has since been convicted of crimes to do with indecent photographs of children has made it easier for the BBC to airbrush his involvement out of the series' official history.

The Pete Best / int_a2c7e6ce	comment	The first series of Robot Wars was hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, much better known nowadays for Top Gear (UK). He was replaced in Series 2 by Craig Charles (best known as Dave Lister on Red Dwarf) who was much better suited to both the material and the show format (Clarkson was known for being quite rude to the contestants and didn't really hold the show in high regard) and Robot Wars really took off after that. Charles would remain the host of UK Robot Wars up until it went off the air after Series 7 and fans were quite upset when other commitments prevented him from returning as the host of the 2016 reboot series (hosted by Irish comedian Dara O Briain).

The Pete Best / int_a609791a	comment	Scooby-Doo: Heather North is usually associated as being the classic, the original voice of Daphne Blake, with Mary Kay Bergman even mentioning it in an interview during her tenure in the role, but in reality, the role was originated by Indira Stefanianna Christopherson for the first 17 episodes (and majority) of the classic Where Are You?! series before the role was recast with North. Many viewers don't know they're hearing a whole other actress in the role of most of the classic episodes. Also happened to Scrappy-Doo, where Don Messick is usually associated as his voice actor (doing double-duty with Scooby), but actually Lennie Weinrib had voiced the character for all 16 episodes of "The Scooby-Doo & Scrappy-Doo Show" before quitting the role over a pay dispute and other personal reasons. In addition, Daws Butler, Dick Beals, Frank Welker, Marilyn Schreffler, and others all voiced the character in unaired test versions of the pilot before producers settled on Weinrib. Happens in universe when Scrappy-Doo became The Scrappy, replacing Scooby-Doo's other relative who only appeared in a few episodes: Scooby-Dum.

The Pete Best / int_a71ca7e6	comment	Jules Bledsoe introduced "Ol' Man River" as Joe in the original Broadway production of Show Boat. Paul Robeson would play that part (which consists of little more than the famous song and its reprises) in the 1928 London production, the 1932 Broadway revival, and the 1936 film version (for which he got a Movie Bonus Song). Robeson was the most famous black dramatic actor of his day, and Bledsoe was not a good actor, so it's no wonder whose performance was regarded as definitive.

In the second episode of the 14th season, with Matthew Broderick as a guest, they make a parody of Albert Goldman, author of a controversial biography of John Lennon, which made this character (played by Phil Hartman) claim that he had been part of The Beatles and played trombone in the band before they reached the stardom, but was expelled by everyone present (both John, Paul, George, Ringo ... and Elvis) on considerations about his lack of talent and large build. In the end, Mr. Goldman threatened to take revenge eventually for that affront (it should be noted that this author wrote a polemic biography of Elvis, too).

The Pete Best / int_b369b969	comment	Peter Burton, who played Major Boothroyd/Q in Dr. No, was unable to return for From Russia with Love and so was replaced by Desmond Llewelyn, who would become the iconic Q actor, appearing in seventeen James Bond movies in total. Another one from James Bond. Before Sean Connery, there was an American actor, Barry Nelson, who played "Jimmy Bond" in an adaptation of Casino Royale for an anthology called Climax!, with the idea being for it to act also as a pilot for a possible TV Show based on James Bond. Nothing came out of it and eight years later came Dr. No and Barry Nelson (who was thirteen years older than Connery) wasn't even considered for the role. The movie pretty much made Sean Connery a star and relegated Barry Nelson's performance as Bond to total obscurity. The fact that the production was believed lost to time until a kinescope emerged in the 1980s didn't help much either.

Writer Nigel Kitching doesn't join the book until the fourth issue and doesn't begin establishing the consistent world of Sonic the Comic until the seventh, with the first year of the comic's run alternating between Kitching and one-shots by Mark Millar.

The Pete Best / int_bc848d30	comment	SpongeBob SquarePants has several examples from its Latin American Spanish dub: SpongeBob himself was voiced by Kaihiamal MartÃnez in the first season, after which he was one of several voice actors who were fired from the dubbing company, Etcetera Group, after a pay dispute. Because of this, Luis CarreÃ±o replaced him, and he continues to voice the role to this day (even after moving to Miami). Ã“scar Zuloaga voiced Plankton until the Christmas special Cristmas Who?. From Welcome to the Chum Bucket to Squirrel Record, Luis Miguel PÃ©rez would voice him and become associated with the role. Karen was usually voiced by Melanie HenrÃquez until her retirement, and by Gabriela BelÃ©n since then, but her voice actress in the first season was actually Rocio Mallo, who had to quit the role after moving to Mexico (she has since moved back to Venezuela). Sandy was originally voiced by Mercedes Prato but was fired for the same reasons as MartÃnez, leading her more famous successor Anabella Silva (as well as Yaraivi Alcedo, Lidia Abautt, and Lileana ChacÃ³n) to take over. Most people remember Juan GuzmÃ¡n as the French Narrator, as well as the voice reading the signs in Spanish, but he actually replaced Orlando Noguera in both after he moved to Mexico (Noguera would later move again to Miami, where he continues to do voiceover work).

The Pete Best / int_dbf18509	comment	The original host of Jeopardy! was not Alex Trebek but rather Art Fleming, who helmed the original 1964-74 version plus a brief revival in 1978. Trebek started hosting when the show was brought back in 1984, and continued until his death in 2020. This is somewhat justified in Fleming's case, as most of his run was erased. A lot of people only know about Fleming because he's mentioned in (and appeared in the video for) "Weird Al" Yankovic's "I Lost on Jeopardy". The Trebek version has its own version in the Clue Crew, a set of assistants who have regularly provided video-based clues since 2001. The longest-tenured are Jimmy McGuire and Sarah Whitcomb Foss. However, the original Clue Crew consisted of McGuire, Foss, Cheryl Farrell, and Sofia Lindskog. Lindskog left in 2004, with both Kelly Miyahara and Jon Cannon replacing her; Farrell left in 2008, Cannon in 2009, and Miyahara in 2019.

After about three weeks into its first year, Frost was replaced by Bill O'Reilly, who would host the show for about the next six and a half years. After O'Reilly's departure came former Today anchor Deborah Norville. Norville began hosting Inside Edition in March 1995 and continued to host it a good 20 years later.

Cottonwood was almost like a prototype of Luke Harper, right down to wearing jeans and a wifebeater and having long dark brown hair and a matching beard.He was much cleaner-cut than Harper, though.

The Pete Best / int_e5c6748d	comment	Ted Healy was this to The Three Stooges and was the star of the act in vaudeville for long before his assistants were billed as the Stooges. Healy left the Stooges when they moved in 1934 to Columbia Pictures from MGM, for which they had done six shorts and various cameos. Moe Howard, Larry Fine, and Shemp Howard also played minor supporting roles in Soup to Nuts, a 1930 Fox feature film starring Healy. Shemp was replaced by Curly in the early 1930s but returned in the mid-1940s after Curly had a stroke. Healy, meanwhile, had died in 1937. During the Ted Healy years, the group had a fourth Stooge, Fred Sanborn. Sanborn left after Soup to Nuts to concentrate on his music and solo career but worked with Shemp on a few films in the 1940s until Shemp reunited with the Stooges in 1947.

Once associated as the voices of the series, that honor now goes to FUNimation's voice cast, who has completely replaced the former (with actors like Sean Schemmel and Chris Sabat instead of Ian Corlett and Brian Drummond). While Ocean did do their own dub of the second half of the series for Europe and Canada in association with AB Groupe, this has also been displaced by Funimation's version, which is all that's on DVD in those (and all English-speaking) territories.

Though he was one of the primary forces behind the creation of Gray Matter, no one at the company is willing to acknowledge it in public, especially once Walt is publically exposed as a drug lord near the end of the series, and his role in starting the company has long since been forgotten.

The Pete Best / int_f53fe2fa	comment	Everybody knows that the IMF on Mission: Impossible was always led by Peter Graves' Jim Phelps. Mostly forgotten is Dan Briggs, played by Steven Hill in the first season. Hill left the show (and temporarily, acting) for reasons that were partly religious, and his character was subject to Chuck Cunningham Syndrome. Ironically, Hill would become the "Ringo" figure when he assumed his most famous role, DA Adam Schiff on Law & Order. The DA in the original pilot was Alfred Wentworth, played by Roy Thinnes; however, the pilot was filmed two years before the show was finally picked up by NBC, and Thinnes chose not to return as a regular.

The Pete Best / int_f7d8fd70	comment	When The Goon Show began in 1951 as Crazy People Michael Bentine starred alongside Peter Sellers, Spike Milligan and Harry Secombe. Bentine also appeared in the low-budget Goon Show spinoff movie Down Among the Z-Men but left the show soon after. According to one interview, Milligan fired him for suggesting the show would work better without Milligan, who created and mostly wrote it. Because so few recordings of early series remain, most of the show's fans, who only discovered it later, will also be unfamiliar with Bentine's character Osric Pureheart, an inventor and adventurer, who was usually a very important character in the scripts of the first and second series. The show's original announcer Andrew Timothy also left early in the show's run, claiming that the surreal humor was damaging his sanity.

And prior to that, the show was merely a 1992 college project named "Whoopass Stew" with all the girls voiced by Jennifer Fried, and instead of the as-of-yet iconic Tom Kenny as the Narrator's voice, Craig McCracken himself provided the voice for his own production. In addition, Ernie Anderson was the narrator in the WAC shorts, but he had passed away by the time the TV series was greenlit, and Kenny was cast.

The Pete Best / int_ff7b68ba	comment	This happened quite often on Night Court. It was not until Season 4 that the show's lineup stabilized. Karen Austin and Paula Kelly were only present during the first season before leaving, and their characters (Lana Wagner and Liz Williams, respectively) were quickly forgotten about. Austin has stated that she was let go due to being diagnosed with Bell's Palsy, and producers thought this would be an issue for filming. It has never been disclosed why Kelly left the show. In addition to the above two, there was Gail Strickland (who played the public defender in the pilot before being replaced by Kelly) and Ellen Foley (who was only in Season 2 because the producers were waiting for Markie Post to become available). The first two actresses playing the female bailiff were far more memorable but also had short-lived tenures on the show. Selma Diamond portrayed Selma Hacker, who was replaced in Season 3 by Flo Kleiner played by Florence Halop. Both died of cancer during the show's run.
