Doesn't quite count as its just audio, but Ginger Wildheart was asked by the maker of an Argentinan comedy show called The Substitute to record a cover of The Who's Substitute to use as its theme song. So he did.

McChesney Duntz

Oh, jeez, almost forgot about a big one - the (genuinely brilliant) Nickelodeon kids series The Adventures of Pete & Pete featured Iggy Pop (in a recurring role), Marshall Crenshaw, Richard Edson (better known as an actor than a musician, granted, but he was Sonic Youth's first drummer), Gordon Gano (Violent Femmes), Debbie Harry, Juliana Hatfield, David Johansen, LL Cool J, Luscious Jackson, Alicia Keys, Kate Pierson (B-52's), Suzzy Roche, and Syd Straw. And that was just the musicians that appeared on it; their cast/guest star list is ridiculously high-quality. (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Adventures_of_Pete_%26_Pete)

No but he was on the Shooting Stars pilot and made a Cup-A-Soup joke

Michael Stipe too (looking creepy)

How could I forget Stipe? (He was actually the first one I thought of when remembering this show.)

Noddy appeared in Mrs Brown's Boys, the mad machocist.
