Michale B Jordan played fan favorite chatacters in All My children, then The wire, and finaly Parenthood before graduating to a movie star. Despite being small characters in all those shows he instantly became a standout.
Same with Idris Elba in Luthor and The wire.

Robert Reed was on four seasons of The Defenders and then played Mike Brady on The Brady Bunch
Canadian actors are hungry for work. You have Lorne Green, William Shatner, Michael J. Fox that have had multiple series. On Canadian-made shows, actors need to have at least two jobs.
Patrick McKenna held down a regular job on TRADERS while playing a completely different character on THE RED GREEN SHOW.
Victor Garber has been several different characters at the same time. We know him as Professor Stein from THE FLASH and LEGENDS OF TOMORROW, but he's also been working on other series like POWER and TALES OF THE CITY and CHARLIE'S ANGELS. Before that he was on ALIAS and THE FAMILY STONE. To name but a few.
Eric Peterson was on STREET LEGAL for many years, while doing other jobs for other series. And then he was on CORNER GAS.
Erica Durance was on SMALLVILLE and then SAVING HOPE, as well as SUPERGIRL.
Kristin Kreuk was playing a teen high school student on EDGEMONT and she stayed on that series, while playing another high school teen on SMAVLLVILLE. And she went on to star in BEAUTY AND THE BEAST.
