When an actor with a popular role in the past has a resurgence doing something else. Often they will be cast purely for nostalgia reasons, or because the director or writer is a Promoted Fanboy. Ironically, though, they often become even more popular than they were before, causing their earlier work to be all but forgotten. Named for The Simpsons' Troy McClure, who used to be a character actor, and then did educational films, infomercials, etc. He would introduce himself with "Hi, I'm Troy McClure! You might remember me from such films as Aliens Steal Cable! and The Adjectival Superhero." (The names of the two films were usually relevant to what he was in at the moment.) Compare Retroactive Recognition, where the actor's previous roles weren't nearly as popular as their current one. |

Marcia Wallace was, at one point, sufficiently well-known from her role on The Bob Newhart Show in the '70s to be the subject of a Taxi episode (in which she guested as herself) later in that decade, as well as an appearance as her Bob Newhart character on Murphy Brown. Later on, of course, she became the voice of Mrs. Krabappel on The Simpsons. | |

Olivia, (Raven-Symoné) from The Cosby Show as Monique from Kim Possible and the title character from That's So Raven and its spin-off series, Raven's Home. On that note, Symoné is also know for playing Nicole in Hangin' with Mr. Cooper, which serves as this trope for Holly Robinson Peete (21 Jump Street), Dawnn Lewis (A Different World), Roger E. Mosley (Magnum, P.I.), Nell Carter (Gimme a Break!) and Omar Gooding (Nickelodeon's Wild and Crazy Kids). Later Peete would star in the sitcom For Your Love and Lewis would voice LaBarbara Conrad in Futurama. |

After his success as Dr. Frank-n-Furter, Tim Curry went on to have a lucrative career in voice-acting along with live-action acting. Many of the roles he voiced include Nigel Thornberry, King Chicken, Emperor Doviculus, the Cat King, King Acorn, and even Satan (in Legend (1985)). He's also done quite a bit of stage acting (including a brief reprise as Dr. Frank-n-Furter). | |

There Will Be Brawl is a live-action web series featuring Matthew Mercer and Kyle Hebert, both well-known anime and video game voice-actors (Mercer Darrin'd for Troy Baker as Kanji Tatsumi and portrayed Chrom, while Hebert voiced greats such as Gohan and Kamina). Mercer has since gone on to no small amount of Internet fame as the Dungeon Master for the livestreamed Tabletop RPG Critical Role. | |

Ben Browder is known for two famous sci-fi roles: John Crichton on Farscape, and Cameron Mitchell on Stargate SG-1. He acted opposite Claudia Black (Aeryn Sun and Vala mal Doran, respectively) on both series; naturally Lampshade Hanging ensued on the latter about the former. | |

Up until the mid-90s Noel Edmonds was a celebrity Saturday night entertainment show presenter, before which he was a successful DJ. He dropped out of the limelight for several years before reemerging in 2005 as the host of the British version of the game show Deal or No Deal. Similarly, Howie Mandel was a popular prop comic who played Dr. Fiscus on St. Elsewhere, then voiced the title character on Bobby's World. After years of obscurity he resurfaced as host of the US edition of Deal or No Deal. | |

Of the four kid leads in Stand by Me, only Jerry O'Connell didn't have any other major roles as a child actor. He made up for it as an adult. Wil Wheaton is an odder example, becoming a target of nerd scorn on Star Trek: The Next Generation before his comeback in the aughties as a target of nerd admiration. | |
