Sometimes the limelight is given to a guest character of note, often a character so outrageous that he/she upstages the regulars, or a nobody with a touching, moving story. This is occasionally done in comedies where the focus is less on the regular characters usual antics and hijinks and more on the guest character. In such cases, the regular characters may be temporarily demoted to [[Straight Man]] status (The Soup Nazi from Seinfeld for example). In some cases, the regular characters are just present either to provide moral support or to be the recipients of [[An Aesop]]. Such episodes may be of the [[Very Special Episode]] variety and may focus on a serious issue facing the guest character.
