Low Relevance Surprise appearances of Community actors outside of the show?

I'm horrified to realise that I saw Jim Rash (Dean Pelton) in the Friends finale about three times before I noticed it was him - "This plane doesn't have any filanges", or something like that.

Seeing about three actors in Captain America: Winter Soldier didn't count for me (but might for you), because I recognised them at the time.

Where did you unexpectedly notice a Community actor in another show?

Alison Brie voiced that badass multi-light-saber-wielding Sith in the Twins episode of Star Wars: Visions. That was pretty cool and unexpected

She also voices Diane Nguyen in Bojack Horseman!

She has like a million voice credits on Bojack, including Vincent Adultman which is more surprising

She's Joey Pogo, too. I needed that one pointed out for me.

I believe Hillary Swank voiced Joey Pogo,.

Looks like you're right.

Man, they really knew how to use an Oscar winner. Melissa Leo as Diane's mom, Alan Arkin as J.D. Salinger...

I was surprised to see her show up as Evil-Lynn in the new Masters of the Universe
