17. Neil Patrick Harris And David Burtka

Neil Patrick Harris & David Burtka

Speaking of people who turned down roles, step up Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka. Remember the dysfunctional gay couple that wanted the baby in season one? Originally they were supposed to be played by married coupe Neil Patrick Harris and David Burtka. Unfortunately, the pair turned down the role as they€™d already played a couple who hated each other in A Very Harold and Kumar 3D Christmas and Harris didn€™t want to repeat it so soon. It wasn€™t all bad though because it led to Zachary Quinto being cast in one half of the role, which isn€™t too bad a replacement is it? Also, the duo are set to appear in the fourth season of Freak Show, so all€™s well that ends well.
