Naomi Judd was in the movie "Family Tree" with Andrew (or Andy) Lawrence,
who was in the movie "Jack Frost" as was the lovely Kelly Preston,
who was in the goofy movie "Amazon Women On The Moon" with Stanley Brock,
who played Uncle Harvey in the movie "UHF" with Al.

Not that I have better (or any for that matter) links for any of these celebrities (except Marvin Hagler), but some of the links have really been stretching it lately.

Marvelous Marvin Haggler has been compared to Mike Tyson

who was on the same coast as Def Jam records

President is in the name of the band The Presidents of the united states of america

She debuted her talk show the same season as the Wayne Brady Show

Carl Sagan wrote the book & the story for Contact (1997), which was also dedicated to him.

Bill Clinton appeared in Contact (archival footage). Bill Clinton met Bermuda Schwartz, who plays drums for Weird Al Yankovic.

Al is holding a copy of "A Brief History of Time" on the READ poster.

Have we done Mr. T? If not, then let's.

We've counted stuff like that before, so yes. But it's the same issue as SNL, everyone's been on that show too.

If I may make a suggestion to make the game more challenging. If possible, try not to use links from SNL or "The Simpsons" unless you're really stuck, or it's absolutely necessary. Or, if you must use those shows, then at least try to limit it to where the two people you are linking are on the same episode, or at the very least, the same season.

Mr. T was kissed by Nancy Reagan at a White House Christmas party.
Nancy Reagan's husband was Ronald Reagan.
Ronald convinced Michael Jackson to let "Beat It" be used in a drunk driving ad.
Al parodied "Beat It."

Bill Cosby was on the Cosby Show with Malcolm-Jamal Warner, who was in the Liberian Girl video with Al.

Norm MacDonald (Note: this one CAN be done without using SNL.)

Actually, he didn't play Oswald, but he DID make a couple appearances on the show.
