However, it is legendary Hollywood director Ron Howard, the filmmaker behind classics as "Apollo 13," "A Beautiful Mind," and "Backdraft" that qualifies the episode for this list. As a way of paying last respects to Marshall, the many actors from his previous series, such as "Happy Days" and "Laverne and Shirley," appeared guest star as people from Oscar's late father's life, including Marion Ross, Cindy Williams, Anson Williams, and Don Most. In that episode, Oscar - played by "Friends" alum Matthew Perry - takes a trip to a special place to scatter the ashes of his late father, who Garry Marshall had previously played. Reiner would make 11 appearances on "New Girl", and has been called one of the series' best guest stars. His ongoing story of trying to find love as a retired older man goes through peaks and valleys - he winds up briefly married to a woman his daughter's age - before seeing him ride into the sunset with the owner of his local diner. Bob would reappear in several further holiday episodes, sometimes with Joan, sometimes alone. When we first meet Bob it's Thanksgiving, in the 2012 episode "Parents" where he appears alongside his ex-wife Joan, played by none other than Hollywood scream queen Jamie Lee Curtis. However, it's his recurring role in the 2011 sitcom "New Girl" that brought him back to the attention of modern audiences, where he starred in eight episodes as Zooey Deschanel's divorced father Bob Day.

Instead, we've assembled a list of directors who have made cameos in other projects as new and unrelated characters, such as Taika Waititi's voice role as IG-11 in "The Mandalorian." Want to know who else made our list? Scroll on, as you might just be surprised by which legendary Hollywood movie directors have had cameo roles on small screen TV shows. Some directors on this list started out as actors earlier in their careers before making the transition behind the camera to become full-time directors, while others rarely act at all. We've opted to leave off the instances in which a Hollywood director cameos as his or herself - mostly because the list would be way too long if we didn't. You might only know who they are by the episode's credits. Often you may not even recognize them, as directors are usually not the well-known faces that audiences would recognize. However, occasionally it's not an actor at all, as some TV cameos have featured a legendary big-screen director showing up as a guest star on a sitcom or primetime drama.

Other times it's a star from another TV series popping in for a visit. Sometimes, a prominent Hollywood actor makes a surprise appearance on the small screen for a one-off role.
Television guest stars can come in many forms.
