    Not a particular celebrity, but I wrote in to two shows when I was a kid. The first one was Kidsongs. I think it played before or after GoBots on weekday mornings. Anyway the kids had a dog like I did and they sent me a group photo of the entire cast. The second one was Haywire. I think it aired Friday in prime time on Fox. My favorite character on the show was Billy Quan, a really ridiculous spoof of Jackie Chan who was a neighborhood crimefighter. I got a letter back on official letterhead promising more adventures and then the show got canceled.

    Oh fun. Happy for ya!

    I've never sent any fan mail, but a friend of mine sent in his script from the last episode of Everybody Loves Raymond to get autographed by Ray Romano.

    It's been like, 2-3 years or so and he never got it back. Guess Ray Romano kept it.

    He prolly has two separate stacks, one for hate mail and one for die hard fan mail...I like his movies but...my letter would be somewhere in the middle most likely.

    Have never sent any fan mail before to get any autographs, and I only really got one from Jack Wilshere when I saw him at a shop in my town.

    the bigger the celeb, the bigger the chance of them having a pre printed signed signature on a 8x10 or there being an auto-penned signature to look like a real signature.

    Best autograph I got was from Alan Tudyk a few months ago.

    What does he write with his signature? "I'm a leaf on the wind."

    Evil bastard giving me these feels! :D

    My wife sent a letter to Lou Ferrigno a while back, asking for a photo for my birthday. He sent back an autographed photo :D
