JOHN F. KENNEDY, JR.

AS SEEN IN:
'Murphy Brown'
"Altered States"

O'BSERVATION:
Although a body double was used (and thus falls into the "As Seen On TV" category), JFK, Jr. also is "in" an episode of 'Seinfeld'.  And so he connects the two series together.

"THE GETTYSBURG ADDRESS" - FROM TOOBWORLD

This takes place in an alternate TV dimension.  Whenever there's a stand-alone TV movie or mini-series that features historical characters, I send them off to different dimensions so there's no clash over the many different portrayals of an historical figure.

In this case, it would be President Abraham Lincoln as played by Gregory Peck.....

Today marks the 150th anniversary of the Lincoln's recitation of his speech.

(In Earth Prime-Time, the official portrayal of President Lincoln is by Ford Rainey.)

5]  LATE SHOW WITH DAVID LETTERMAN
Season 20, Episode 94 (Feb. 20, 2013)
Wearing a fake beard and stovepipe hat to resemble the 16th President of the United States, Hugh Jackman says, "The truth is, I wanted to sway a few last-minute Oscar voters. I'll be honest. I mean, really, can Daniel Day-Lewis do this?" He then proceeds to sing the opening line of the Gettysburg Address.

6)  BONANZA

Episode: Unknown

I haven't been able to track down the episode, but Little Joe became a teacher after he caused the regular teacher to be crippled.  A couple of older boys showed up just to make the job miserable for Joe, but in the end they came around to the concept of an education and were able to read on a fundamental level.  One of the boys recited the Gettysburg Address......
