Breakup Breakout: Difference between revisions

== Live Action TV ==

* Since [[Fresh Prince of Bel Air]] went off the air the show's star [[Will Smith]] moved on to have a really successful hollywood career. His fellow cast members on the other hand seem to haven't done much or have done anything as successful as Will has done.

* Even [[The Muppets]] have an example of this: The short-lived ''[[Muppets Tonight]]'' introduced the comedy team of Pepe (a prawn) and Seymour (an elephant). Pepe has since gone on to appear in many later Muppet projects, while Seymour vanished without a trace.

** An [[The Muppet Show|earlier example]] can be fond to, [[Smurfette Breakout|Miss Piggy]], she gained fame quickly, even though she was originally meant to be a minor character next to Rowlf alongside Janice in the Veterinarian's Hospital sketches. While the latter two have made a comeback in recent years, it is still surprising to learn Piggy was never thought of as a major character in the beginning.

* ''[[In Living Color]]'' was an incredibly successful FOX series that launched the careers of several African-American celebrities (including the Wayans brothers, Tommy Davidson, Jamie Foxx and David Alan Grier) who went on to decent (if spotty) careers in film and television. Yet, the two most successful cast members who emerged from the series were [[Jim Carrey|a nerdy white guy with a knack for impressions]] and [[Jennifer Lopez|a backup dancer who left after the third season]].

* ''[[Degrassi the Next Generation]]'', for all its controversial storylines and [[Long Runner]] status, is more well-known for being a launchpad for Aubrey Graham (a.k.a. [[Drake]]) than anything else. The only other cast member to make any impact was Shenae Grimes, who landed on The CW's reboot of ''[[Beverly Hills, 90210]]'' after her time on ''Degrassi'' ended.
