While there are so many actors and pop-culture icons who added to the beauty of this show, being a huge Star Trek geek, I have to go with the cast that participated in the episode Where No Fan Has Gone Before

Great mentions!

Al Gore's appearances always make me laugh.

"I have ridden the mighty moon worm!"

Was coming here to mention Gore. It really isn't very often you see a politician of any stripe show a genuine sense of humor about themselves, and willingness to just get a little silly.

He also got to do two cameos on 30 Rock, both times he ended the bit by interrupting someone and saying, "Quiet! A whale is in trouble!" and running off.

I can tell you where we're not! And that's the universe!

Peace out, y'all!

I'm gonna have to go with Stephen Hawking, his one-liners never fail to crack me up.

Hey, Stephen Hawking! Aren't you that physicist who invented gravity?

Sure. Why not.

Gets me every time.

Hubba-hubba.

I always liked the Harlem Globetrotters episodes. It makes it feel very Scooby Doo

Mine is Beck. He really made playing himself comedic.

Odelay is a word. Look it up in the Becktionary.

Gary Gygax.

"It's a..." rolls dice "Pleasure to meet you!"

Bea Arthur. The loaded way she says "Why?" Is incredible. They even call it out on the DVD commentary.

Adam west

Or Hank Aaron

[–] TurretCorruption 4 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I liked how they did an entire episode with Beck.

Also, apparently John Goodman was robot santa.

[–] Awa 3 points 1 year ago

Yes!!! And Mark Hamill was Chanukah Zombie and Coolio was Kwanzaabot

I'd say Nixon but I feel like that's cheating?

I would say the Beastie Boys.

[–] TurretCorruption 5 points 1 year ago

Well considering nixon is voiced by billy west, id say thats cheating. Dude voices almost everybody.
