Ok you missed a lot of actors. The role of Laura was written for Constance McCashin for Knots Landing. Estelle Getty got the role of Sophia for The Golden Girls because the producers saw her in Torch Dong Trilogy. Mindy Cohen was just a student a girl's private school giving the producers of The Facts of Life a tour. Charlotte Rae falls in love with her & she got the role of Natalie. I know these are 80s shows but still.

I liked Aubrey Plaza, she is a large part of what got me to watch Parks and Rec all the way through.
It's too bad Ross on Friends is one of the most toxic characters on tv. He ruined Rachel's happiness throughout the show and destroyed her promising career because he is/was a major creep. It's not too different from how Ted was on How I Met Your Mother.

in addition to the Paris mention, Amy Sherman Palladino wrote the character of Richard Gilmore with Edward Hermann in mind. His agent tried to brush it off and begrudgingly agreed to show him the script after ASP was so insistent and he was on board almost immediately

It's about time that this fact about Daryl was acknowledged, it's true that Michael Rooker beat Norman Reedus to the role of Merle but lucky for Norman the creators liked him and didn't want to do the show without him, so they came up with the role of Daryl just for Norman.

liza weil known for intensity rory is more laidback and loose and polar opposite of the role of paris david schwimmer no one can do better than him yes he's known for certain antics but pulls it together he does have a quality that pulls it off

OK, I kinda forgot that Kurt was written for Chris Colfer, but I'm a bit disappointed. I was expecting Lea Michelle to also be on this list with both Rachel Berry and her Scream Queens character.
reply

also. the creators of once upon a time tailored the rumplestiltskin character specificly for robert carlyle. that's why he's more of composite of fairytale characters and not just one in particular.
reply

Yeah or maybe maude apatow got the role because shes the daughter of judd apatow. Also lexi is the most boring character. I wouldnt take that as a compliment that they wrote the role for her.
reply

Well, although Eartha Kitt took over the role of Catwoman on Batman when Julie Newmar couldn't do it she had declared the part was written for her even though she meant it figuratively!
reply

Creed Bratton in the office and Dr. Cox in scrubs. In scrubs the original script literally said a Johnny C like character. They never thought they could actually get him
reply

Jason Alexander as George Costanza. You tell me there is a better person who can pull off that character. In fact, this basically goes for the entire Seinfeld cast
reply

Luke Perry as Dylan McKay Beverly Hills 90210. Aaron Spelling even stated he paid him out of his own pocket until Execs saw how awesome and needed he was.
reply

David Hyde Pierce and Chris Colfer would have to be my favourites - Niles and Kurt became my favourite characters on both those shows.
reply

Daryl from the walking dead wasnt even a character in the comics but they liked Norman reedus so much they put him in AMC TWD
reply

The fact that he had a bad experience and they close the clip of him going, you threw my sandwich away had me dying
reply

Dorothy from The Golden Girls? Susan Harris wrote the pilot with a Bea Arthur like character embodied in Dorothy
reply

You know that David Schiwimmer is a good actor, because in Friends, there are moments you love and hate Ross.
reply

Not sure if it was written for him or not, but Bill Pullman is perfect for his character in The Sinner.

Geoff Pierson As Jack Malloy Unhappily Ever After loved his role throughout the early WB cult classic

David Schwimmer's acting during was great and his chemistry and scenes with Jennifer Aniston were good
reply
