TVXOHOF, 01/2009-A: REEGE!

January is traditionally the Classic TV month for the Crossover Hall of Fame. And since he'll be appearing on 'Brothers & Sisters' next Sunday (from what I read), then I thought there'd be no other better for this honor than Regis Philbin.

"Brothers & Sisters"

"How I Met Your Mother"
- The Best Burger in New York (2008)

"Ugly Betty"

"The Knights of Prosperity"
- Operation: Oswald Montecristo (2007)

"All My Children"
- Episode dated 14 September 2005 (2005)

"That Was Then"
- A Rock and a Head Case (????)

"Primetime Glick"
- Regis Philbin/Russell Crowe (2001)

"Spin City"
- The Bone Collectors (2000)
- How to Bury a Millionaire (1999)

- Radio Daze (1997)
(At least one of these appearances may be as the voice of Carter's dog....)

"The Famous Jett Jackson"

"Style and Substance"

"Mad About You"

"Number 96"
- Chick Hits It Big (1980)

At least one of those shows, 'Spin City', is set in an alternate universe. And this doesn't even take into account his many appearances in variety shows, sports programs, interview panels, etc......

And then there's his work in.......

THE TOONIVERSE
"Lilo & Stitch: The Series"
- Drowsy: Experiment #350 (2004)

"The Simpsons"
- Old Yeller-Belly (2003)

- Treehouse of Horror IX (1998)

"Family Guy"
- Family Guy Viewer Mail #1 (2002)

With the "Treehouse of Horror IX", Regis Philbin joined an exclusive club with Jerry Seinfeld and Drew Carey - he got to interact with pen-and-ink characters who crossed over from the Tooniverse!
