This actor has appeared on more shows on the CW than anyone else
How many times have you watched a show on The CW and thought, “Wow, I’m pretty sure I’ve seen this actor on like four other CW shows?” More than once, right? Well, there’s a reason for that. They definitely re-use actors across different series, with at least eight actors participating in at least five series! One actor, in particular, has been on SEVEN different series. SEVEN! Crazy.
Per TV Line, who takes the crown for being the actor who has appeared on the most CW shows ever? Jason Dohring! You might not know his name, but we bet you’ll recognize his face.
Here are his shows.
1 iZombie as Chase Graves
2The Originals as Detective Will Kinney
3The Messengers as Jeff Fairburn
4The Tomorrow People as Killian McCrane
5Ringer as Mr. Carpenter
6 Supernatural as Ethan Snider or Cronos
7Still unsure? Of course you’ll recognize him as Logan Echolls from Veronica Mars!
Dohring also tied with Gossip Girl alum Katie Cassidy, but received the 1st place title from TV Line because he landed seven different non-DC shows. Impressive.
Here are the runner-ups:
2. Katie Cassidy (7): Arrow, The Flash and Legends of Tomorrow, Melrose Place, Gossip Girl, Supernatural, and Whose Line is it Anyway?
3. Colin Lawrence (6): Riverdale, Supernatural, iZombie, The 100, Arrow, and Smallville.
4. Chris Wood (5): Supergirl, The Flash, Containment, The Vampire Diaries, and The Carrie Diaries.
5. Peyton List (5): Frequency, The Tomorrow People, The Flash, 90210 and Smallville.
6. Nick Zano (5): DC’s Legends of Tomorrow, Arrow, 90210, Melrose Place and 7th Heaven.
7. Erica Cerra (5): The 100, iZombie, Supernatural, Smallville and Reaper.
8. Stephen Amell (5): 90210, The Vampire Diaries, Arrow, The Flash, and DC’S Legends of Tomorrow.
Congrats to all!
