Hey, this is a pretty good trivia question. The answer is that all of these stars had their TV debut on the same series: "General Electric Theater."

On Wednesday evening, GE chief Jeff Immelt will visit former First Lady Nancy Reagan to present her with a special gift for the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library in Semi Valley, Calif.: all 208 episodes of "General Electric Theater," reports the AP.

Former President Reagan hosted the series, which aired a different drama on each show. The series ran on NBC from 1954-1962. The tapes had been lost or damaged over time, but were recently found and restored to broadcast quality.
