Am I the only one who actually thinks Jennifer Aniston doesn't belong here? She's a MEGA star and if it were literally any other show, i'd agree that she's way bigger than it... but I actually don't think she became bigger than Friends. Whether people like it or not, Friends is huge. I feel like she was appropriately famous for a famous show. It's not like Michael J. Fox who, although Family Ties was wonderful, completely outgrew a normal sitcom like that. But even by 2004, Jennifer and Friends went hand in hand. The proof of that is she's still... after all her roles... best known for Friends

@@dhenderson1810 Agreed. But he was actually a wonderful sport and stayed on Family Ties until the end, four years later, when he could've bailed right after BTTF. Clooney left ER after movie stardom hit, and Moonlighting and Welcome Back Kotter both kinda ended when it became obvious that Willis and Travolta were ready to leave and their hearts were no longer on a tv show when they were getting huge movie offers. Fox is one of the only cases I can think of that actually used his movie stardom to make Family Ties an even bigger hit, his commitment to the show paid off for everyone involved because BTTF brought in a new audience of people who loved him in that movie and then started watching his sitcom, as opposed to where the other actors mentioned made no bones that they had outgrown a weekly series, Fox stayed with Family Ties until the end. His movie and TV stardoms were symbiotic and paid off big time

One of the defining characteristics of Gen Z is their constant surprise that ANYTHING happened or existed before their own limited experience! Hence how an entire video can be made that suggests no one knew who any of these people were until they appeared in the MCU or MCU-adjacent franchises. FYI, many of these people (like Johnny Depp, for example) were well-known and well regarded as A-list movie actors long before selling their souls and joining a mindless money-machine. But then, mindless is of course another defining characteristic of Gen Z. Bring on the asteroid!

I'm shock you forgot about, Johnny Depp working in Sleepy Hollow (1999). That was to me the best collaboration with, Tim Burton.

depended on the actor, Shelley Long looked younger than she actually was, Diane was written to be about 22-23 at the start of the series though Shelley was 33 in 1982

I guess this list only refers to those who become popular to white people because Queen Latifah was already a star in rap with her debut Album All Hail the Queen becoming a top ten hip hop album before she was in Living Single. As an actress the show helped her but as a rapper Queen Latifah was already killing shit and already known. She was already doing movies and TV having a major role in House Party 2 and Jungle Fever and appeared multiple times on The Fresh Prince of Bel Air before Living Single. She was one of the main reasons why we watched because she was already popular. Her along with Kim Fields but she was out of the spotlight for years before returning to TV. Queen Latifah was the big name that gave the show credibility.

Real fans know that while Mike and Molly was her big break, Melissa McCarthy was Sookie St. James on Gilmore Girls and that’s where I personally know her from.
