TV Connections

I was watching an episode of Supernatural this week and I got distracted because I recognised an actress guest starring in the show, and I couldn't quite remember what I'd seen her in before. It turns out her name is Emmanuelle Vaugier and she plays a recurring character in One Tree Hill. I also watched 2 episodes of Castle and one had Riley from Buffy guest starring and the next one had Alyssa Milano from Charmed.

This got me thinking because it seems like I can't watch anything lately without reaching for IMDB. Either TV casts are really incestuous or I clearly watch way too much TV (probably both). Anyway I thought it would make an interesting challenge to see if I could link all the scripted programmes I watched in the last week through their cast members, and here are the results:

The Walking Dead to Raising Hope = 6 degrees of separation!

OK so I had to use some extra shows (shown with dotted lines) but they're all things I've watched in the past and I recognised the connections myself. There were actually far more connections between them when I looked in IMDB because it seems nearly all TV actors play a victim on Law & Order or CSI at some point in their career!
