Substitute DE: Crossover canon
So I'm currently listening to the audiobook for Museum of Thieves which is narrated by Claudia Black of Farscape and SG1 fame. I've also got an audiobook of The Odyssey read by Sir Ian McKellan (and let me say Magneto reads a very good Homer). I've also seen a certain partying ninja turtle on both Heroes and House. And I've seen Elle Bishop (from Heroes) and Goldilocks selling Makeup (which is really weird when you think about it) but I am sure I am missing much more.
So my question today is, what canons have you seen mixing? And not necessarily official canon; just actors in other works, narrating books, or what have you. Bonus points for the most crackiest.

Allison Scagliotti and Aaron Ashmore (who's coming into Warehouse 13 this season) were both on Smallville; I am all in favor of this leading to IMDb flu shenanigans at some point. Speaking of W13, there's that episode of Star Trek where ARTIE KIDNAPS DATA. FOR HIS COLLECTION OF RARE ARTIFACTS, DID WE MENTION.
I can't watch The Big Bang Theory with a straight face; Moist keeps demanding to know who dressed him like a reject from the Monkees.
Also, I can recognise Orange County in seconds, despite never having seen it, because I used a couple caps of Colin Hanks in it to make icons for Regulus Black.

Ever since I put together that Ashley Parker-Angel is Alex's voice, I can't think about O-Town without it crossing with Lunar. But they do have one big thing in common: Music helps you get chicks.
And if I remember right, Ashley also voiced Ferio in Working Design's Magic Knight Rayearth, which has all sorts of crossover possibility when we start tugging on the threads of the Clamp Universe.

Also, Mark Sheppard is suddenly in everything I watch. It's always a little weird when that happens.

Did you watch Middleman?

I'm pretty sure they aren't siblings most of the time though.

As for Gordon, well, his PB was in Speed Racer. I cannot watch Speed Racer without wondering if Inspector Detector has a crowbar under his coat somewhere. And watching The Mutant Chronicles was weird on so many levels because it included Ron "War... war never changes" Perlman, Sean "if Little Red Riding Hood should show up with a bazooka and a bad attitude, I expect you to chin the bitch" Pertwee, and Gordon's PB- among others. Also because it was a bad movie. But mostly because of the actors.

Another dizzying option is After The Deluge, an Australien mini series, once again starring Hugo. Alongside David Wenham this time.

Marginally related : Death by chicken
Zelda : OoT

Man stabbed to death by chicken! Knife wielding cock shock! (oh, The Register, what's with you and headlines?)

Though I suppose it's really that Veronica Mars became one with her taser in Heroes.

I've also seen Seven of Nine give a press conference on some sort of police drama, no idea which, and Neelix as a seedy karaoke bar owner on Bones. There was much squee, and a facepalm or two regarding the second. Breaking the law does not suit you, Ambassador Neelix. I don't think I'll ever get used to John Crichton or Aeryn being on SG-1, especially Crichton. Oof! As for Morris from ER serving in Easy Company, or if you'd rather Malarky from Easy working in a certain ER... brain! breaky! And let's not even go into what knots my brain was tied into when I realized where else I'd seen TNG's Morgan Bateson, or what Lieutenant Valeris does when she's going by the name 'Samantha'. Gah!

Yeah that's about it, I've been watch a lot of Black Adder, The Tutors, and Mystery Science Theater 3000 of late.

I die quietly whenever I watch the Danielle Steele Movie Kelly Rutherford made: No Greater Love, because it's so close to Dixie in costume, but with a different sort of spirit and spunk.
