00:00I bet you didn't know that Sabrina Carpenter was almost in The Conners.
00:03Yeah.
00:04Whitney Cummings, showrunner at the time, said that she was being considered for the
00:07role of the daughter, but Sabrina had to settle for becoming a pop superstar instead.
00:11There's actually a lot of actors who auditioned for, and didn't get, famous sitcom roles.
00:16And no, we're not just talking about The Office, whose audition tapes feature a virtual
00:20who's who of 21st century American comedy.
00:22Here's some you may not know about.
00:24In addition to auditioning for Dwight on The Office and Kenneth on 30 Rock, Jim Parsons
00:28was also a finalist to play, wait for it, Barney on How I Met Your Mother.
00:33He was actually called back multiple times for the role.
00:35Megan Mullally auditioned for the role of Carrie on King of Queens, a part that ultimately
00:39went to Leah Remini.
00:41Megan actually went to the King of Queens audition, didn't get it, and was in her apartment
00:44devastated when the Will and Grace casting people said, you need to come in for this,
00:49it's a great part for you.
00:50And Kelly Kapowski could have been Rachel Green.
00:53That's right, Tiffany Thiessen was only 20 years old when she auditioned for Friends.
00:57At 25, Jennifer Aniston eventually became the youngest member of the Friends cast, and
01:01instead, Tiffany became Valerie Malone on Beverly Hills, 90210.
