So I’m sitting here watching an episode of Little House on the Prairie…and I recognize the girl playing Belinda, Nancy Oleson’s arch-rival for queen of the school pageant.

Hey…that’s Jan Levinson-Gould!

That’s right…I recognized a 14-year old Melora Hardin, decked out in full Little House regalia. Who would have thought the angelic girl who got locked in the ice house overnight due to Nasty Nancy’s antics, would have grown up to be the chick who McMacks with Michael Scott 25 years later?

Combine that spotting with the fact that Michael Bluth also made an appearance in that episode…I’m almost overwhelmed by the wonder of it all.

Oh yeah…and yesterday Tobey Maguire played Friend #2 on an episode of Roseanne from the early 90s.
