As I stated in this ATT:


I think that I Want You to Meet an Old Friend of Mine is suffering the same problems that JustForFun.Role Association had when it was known as "Hey, It's That Guy!" and "Hey, It's That Voice!". As stated in the Trope Epitaph, those two Trivia examples were "meant to be for actors or voices who were not as recognizable on their own as they were for a specific role they played (e.g. "that guy from [show X] who played [well-known character]"); eventually mutated into basically listing other roles the actor did, regardless of how recognizable the role or the actor in question was. Actors having multiple roles is a case of People Sit on Chairs."

And yes, I do agree that I Want You to Meet an Old Friend of Mine is nothing but chairs.


If you do agree with this, then my recommendation for I Want You to Meet an Old Friend of Mine is to either merge it with Role Association or cut it altogether.

Sorry, but this needs a lot more evidence of there being a problem than what is offered here.
