I’ve been going back and watching earlier seasons, which - I thought - had a smaller budget and less recognition. But after taking a closer look at the credits I realized there’s a lot of celebrity heads that are actually voiced by the actual celebrities. The star trek episode actually had the full original cast and those weren’t bit parts! I get that the show’s a social commentary, but wouldn’t it have been easier to get sound alikes? Is there a story behind the show’s giant special appearances list?

Uh…The Simpsons.
How did Larry David get so many famous people on Curb Your Enthusiasm? Who would want to watch a show about a bored, retired TV writer?
There’s a lot of friendships and direct asks too.
For example: Michael Jackson really wanted to be on the Simpsons.
Other times, a celeb was on it and a friend of the celeb wants in too.
A lot of comedians work together on projects, and often their network allows them to send a quick message and get them on board.
