Figured I'd start a thread on this, even though I know it's similar to the "Rare instances of flashing back to a previous casting" thread but it doesn't need to involve actually showing both actors. But I'm looking for tongue-in-cheek humor here. Do you have any fun examples to share from your favorite shows? Feel free to throw in some primetime examples too if you have them. I'll share some of mine. And if anyone has videos, please post them.

AMC: The Babe hugaroo. One of the weirdest recast moments I've ever seen!

PASSIONS: Tabitha hears a voiceover announcing "The role of Fox Crane is now being played..." There used to be a clip on YouTube! Sigh.

OLTL: Blair used to be Asian! The best. Go to 8:15.

What about SJB and TB Carly? It wasn't immediate, but it was jarring

Don't forget the two Darrin's on Bewitched

ROSEANNE's Two Beckys, with GH's Luke & Laura making a cameo! And the BEWITCHED swap is mentioned.

I liked Becky #2 better

I also liked Darrin #1 better, #2 had no chem with EM

I think Lecy will always be Becky to me but Sarah did great and it's awesome she got such a bangin' career later!

DAYS did a similar switch like AMC's Babe when they recasted Jack from Mark Valley to Steve Wilder in September 1997. Jack (MV) was in a prison shower and Jenn stepped in and surprised him. When Jack turned around to see Jenn, he was suddenly Steve Wilder.

These are great guys, thanks!

The oddest switch I remember from ATWT had to be the Allyson Rice Taylor/Susan Batten change. One show ended with ART"s Connor on the phone, the next show started with SB's Connor still on the phone, wearing the same clothes.

UGH....don't get me started on this....[!@#$%^&*] [!@#$%^&*] FMB!!

It lasted only a couple of seconds, but Alex North's (Roman I) introductory scene was set up to be a little jab at the past. He walks in to see Marlena, who is with John (Roman II) and Roman (Roman III).

The first three months of that story were awesome. Though he lost most of his skills in his second reign, JER was still great at starting stories.
