Which of the following roles has Jessalyn Gilsig (Terri Shuester) never played?
A fire-starter who lives in a trailer and re-kindles a relationship with her long-lost daughter.
The voice of an anthropomorphic cartoon animal.
A bitter sex addict with a possible personality disorder with a penchant for plastic surgeons.
ANSWER: While she’s never voiced an animal, Gilsig was the voice of Kayley in Quest for Camelot (1998) a brave girl who went in search of the famous sword, Excalibur, so she could save King Arthur and the kingdom of Camelot. Here’s the shocking part: this movie also included voice work from Don Rickles, Jane Seymour, Cary Elwes, Gary Oldman, Pierce Brosnan, Gabriel Byrne, Bronson Pinchot (Balki!), and Jaleel White (Urkel!)

Which of the following roles has Jane Lynch (Sue Sylvester) never played?
An exuberant cater-waiter.
A somewhat-deranged youth counselor.
She's played all those roles.

A pushy insurance salesman badgering Bill Murray.
A retired baseball player who hangs out with buddies from the glory days.
A demanding dad who can turn anything to gold (literally).
ANSWER: Sorry Stephen, but you would never be believable as an athlete. Retired or otherwise. We also want to give the writers and creators of Glee major kudos for naming Tobolowsky’s character after his most beloved (in our minds anyway) role as Ned Ryerson, the incredibly pushy insurance salesman in 1993’s Groundhog Day.
