The Jamie Foxx Show is an underrated sitcom that not many know about after Foxx tasted greater success in films. Regardless, the series had a good run of five seasons that depicted Foxx’s character working at his family hotel to support himself for his music career.

Christopher B. Duncan appears as Braxton P. Hartnabrig, the uptight nemesis of the main protagonist for the early seasons before ultimately becoming his best friend. Duncan’s comedic chops will seem even more impressive after First Kill considering how different both shows are.

Stella’s Last Weekend is a comedy-drama film about a pair of brothers who both fall in love with the same woman. Polly Draper plays the matriarch who tries her best to keep the antagonism between her sons to a minimum while everyone prepares for the imminent death of the family dog, Stella.

Polly Draper and the rest of the minimal cast carry Stella’s Last Weekend all the way through since not much happens apart from the characters confronting their resentment for one another. Draper does well in playing the role that glues everyone together due to their connection with her.

Dominic Goodman driving a cart in Young Rock

There aren’t many shows similar to Young Rock, seeing as it’s about the youth of Dwayne Johnson told through a comedic lens. Dominic Goodman had a prominent role in one episode where he played the working partner of the titular character as they take on a grueling on-campus job.

Goodman may have been around for just a single story, but he had a fair amount of screentime that he used to showcase his skills at humor. First Kill fans will get a kick out of watching him a happier and light material compared to the vampire series.

Atlanta is a comedy-drama TV series about the main character Earn taking on his cousin as his music manager to finally do something worthwhile in his life. However, Aubin Wise appeared in an episode that focused on Earn’s former girlfriend Van, with Wise’s character being Van’s old friend.

Wise’s single appearance in Atlanta remains memorable, as her sudden return to Van’s life makes the latter act rashly and leads to several new problems. Wise’s solid performance doesn’t make viewers see her appearance as a guest role since her actions make a long-term impact.
