Movies:
1. Every Which Way But Loose: What if Burt Reynolds would have been Philo Beddoe instead of Clint Eastwood? The part was written for him.
2. Dirty Harry: What if Paul Newman or John Wayne was cast in the role of Harry Callahan instead of Eastwood. They originally wanted one of those two first.
3. Beverly Hills Cop: What if Sylvester Stallone was Axel Foley instead of Eddie Murphy?
4. Pretty Woman: What if Meg Ryan or Daryl Hannah was Vivian Ward instead of Julia Roberts?
5. Star Wars: What if Al Pacino or Chevy Chase or Bill Murray would have been Han Solo instead of Harrison Ford?

TV
1. Married With Children: What if they would have went with their original choices for Al and Peg, Sam Kinison and Roseanne Barr?
2. Sanford and Son: What if Paul Sorvino would have been Fred Sanford and they wouldn't have decided to cast a black family? Or, what if Cleavon Little would have been Fred Sanford?
3. Dallas: What if Robert Foxworth, their original choice, would have played J.R. Ewing instead of Larry Hagman?
