For a long time, there has been a clear divide between movie actors and TV actors, with the latter getting mocked and made fun of for not being able to make it big in the real world. This has lessened greatly in recent years, with TV becoming a legitimate medium for storytelling and big budget high concepts in this decade, with even big name movie stars becoming actors in these shows. That said, what are the noteworthy cases of actors transitioning from small screen to big?

Some that come to mind:

Will Smith (The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air)
Tim Allen (Home Improvement)
George Clooney (ER)
Denzel Washington (St. Elsewhere)
Jennifer Aniston (Friends)
Bruce Willis (Moonlighting)
Michael J. Fox (Family Ties)
Chris Pratt (Parks and Recreation)
Steve Carrell (The Office)
John Krasinski (The Office)
Seth Rogen (Freaks and Geeks)

Who else is of note?
