It is quite common for sitcoms and series to have some of the most random and out-of-pocket cameos of A-list celebrities. Be it in the biggest role, weirdest role, or the roles with the most impact yet in the series, it is always fun for the audiences of the series to have to do a double take when a random actor shows up in their favorite show. Some examples of the same could be Brad Pitt appearing in Friends, Pete Davidson appearing in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, or Stephen Hawking showing up in The Big Bang Theory.
