EDIT - And I was so proud! You did it before me!
THAT WAS HARD!
Hmm...see I can't really do most of these b/c I just don't know them/haven't seen them. I'm almost undefeatable in the game if I know one person to use from starting points, but that's why I've been answering so few. So to boost my esteem, I'm gonna answer mine in different ways:
Melissa Joan Hart was Clarissa and in Sabrina, the Teenage Witch with Lindsay Sloane who was in Bring It On with Kirsten Dunst who was in Dick with Michelle Williams who was in Dawson's Creek with Joshua Jackson who was in Mighty Ducks with Danny Tamberelli from Pete & Pete.
David Lascher was on Hey Dude and Clueless the TV series where Brittany Murphy guest-starred; she also guest-starred on Boy Meets World along with Blake Sloper who was in Salute Your Shorts.

Munk, have you really watched/seen all the ones we start with or do you just somehow know the people in them because like I said that's my problem with most...
Glad I challenged you at least a bit more...

....Claudia was also in "Her First Roman"
....which starred Leslie Uggams
....who was in "Thoroughly Modern Millie"

How about my unanswered one from before:
MISERY (movie) to WICKED
Misery starred Kathy Bates who played Miss Hannigan in the ABC version of "Annie" where Kristin Chenoweth played Lily St. Regis. If you didn't know, Kristin played "G[a]linda" in Wicked.

...who is on ALIAS
...which stars Michael Vartan
...who was in "The Next Best Thing" as was Rupert Everett
...who starred in "My Best Friend's Wedding" alongside Julia Roberts
...who stars in CLOSER.
C'mon guys, give me another!
EDIT: I'm sorry, I'm just afraid I'll be too random. But if I just should toss it out...
CHICAGO (Broadway) to AVIATOR (movie)
How about you play the game like everyone else and after you answer one, give some to me as well. That'd be nice.
Please see the edit above.
