Can anyone name any other films/tv shows where any of the cast of IAMMMMW appeared together in even if they did not share any scenes?
Leo Gorcey(first cab driver for the Crumps),& Lloyd Corrigan(the mayor)appeared together in the 1954 film "The Bowery Boys Meet The Monsters."

Somehow I missed A GUIDE FOR THE MARRIED MAN (1967) - starred Walter Matthau and Robert Morse, but had lots of featured folk like Jack Benny, Sid Caesar, Carl Reiner, Phil Silvers, and Terry-Thomas.
shareHow about Phil Silvers and Jimmy Durante in the Warner Bros. comedy YOU'RE IN THE ARMY NOW (1941).
shareMickey Rooney & Stanley Clements in 1953's Off Limits.
shareEdward Everett Horton(Mr.Dincler)& Charles Lane(Airport Manager)are both in Arsenic & Old Lace.
shareSammee Tong had obviously appeared with Mickey Rooney in the short-lived series, Mickey, but of course they never appear together in the film. Ironically, Tong was the only thing keeping Rooney's show from being cancelled, because of his massive following from Bachelor Father. The show was cancelled shortly after his suicide, so the show literally died with him (its a shame he wasn't given more to do in IAMMMMW).
Jack Benny had made a guest appearance on Bachelor Father, in the same year that Tong guest-starred on The Jack Benny Show. Tong also appeared with the Three Stooges in The Captain Hates the Sea, in 1934.
It remains unclear to me as to whether or not Wally Brown really is in this movie. He's listed as playing a policeman, but I've also heard he was slated to appear in the film but died shortly before filming began.
If he IS in it, obviously he and Alan Carney made an ill-fated teaming in around eight films, like Zombies on Broadway. Incidentally, "Nicodemus" Stewart (the Migrant Truck Driver) also appeared in that film, playing Worthington the Janitor.
Sterling Holloway also appeared with William Demarest in an episode of the Twilight Zone, playing a TV repairman.
As near as I can determine, the earliest production date of IAMMMMW is April of '62. Inasmuch as Brown passed away in November '61, I'd consider it doubtful he ever made an appearance before the cameras for the film.
I've seen Zombies On Broadway, some of his other work with Carney and numerous of his TV appearances and small supporting roles in films, and have always appreciated the opportunity he had to strut his stuff in a substantial dramatic role as the anguished and rather pathetic Lenny in The High and the Mighty. His authenticity is one of that film's highlights.
Poe! You are...avenged!
Yeah, I doubt he's in it, too. IMDB's listings haven't always been that reliable, as was the case when Minta Durfee was incorrectly listed as the Migrant Truck Driver's wife (that would have involved seriously convincing blackface and making a silent film star look thirty years younger).
The Brown-Carney teaming never seems to get much love, just like the Dennis Morgan-Jack Carson teaming doesn't get much love. But, even if the Brown/Carney had more or less become a put-on running gag in Hollywood, Zombies on Broadway arguably paved the way for the more famous "Abbott/Costello meets..." comedies.
There's also Ben Lessy's appearance in Disney's That Darn Cat, along with Demarest and Dorothy Provine, who were already mentioned.
THE NUTTY PROFESSOR (1963) - Jerry Lewis, Marvin Kaplan - who is in the opening credits and is apparently just a face in a crowd shot. Maybe had a talking part that didn't make the final cut.
shareBuddy Hackett and Paul Ford in "The Music Man" (1962)
Buster Keaton, Joe E. Brown, Andy Devine: "Around the World in Eighty Days" (1956)
Sterling Holloway and The Three Stooges in DANCING LADY (1933), which was not only the Stooges feature-length movie debut, but Fred Astaire's as well (with Joan Crawford being his first dance partner on the big screen).
shareMickey Rooney, Dick Shawn, Milton Berle, and Edie Adams appeared in the comedy/western "Evil Roy Slade" (1972).
shareSterling Holloway also appeared on the Andy Griffith Show with Don Knotts in the "The Merchant of Mayberry" episode. (Season 2)
shareSpencer Tracy and Norman Fell share a scene in an earlier Stanley Kramer vehicle, INHERIT THE WIND (1960).
shareThere's a good number of cartoons listed here - include as well the "Linus the Lion-Hearted" show that starred Sheldon Leonard in the title role and also included the likes of Carl Reiner, Jonathan Winters, Sterling Holloway, and Jesse White.
Actually, Holloway only voiced his postman character in tv ads - this show starred mascots from Post cereals, and the line between program and advertising here was...vague.
