Other notable roles include a part in How the Grinch Stole Christmas and as the small Circus Circus casino employee in Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas. He was a series regular on the UPN comedy Shasta McNasty. He also played Napoleon Bonaparte in the short-lived syndicated series Jack of All Trades.

Troyer also appeared on VH1's 4th season of The Surreal Life. Troyer's participation in the show received much media attention when he became drunk and urinated on the carpet. Verne returned in 2007 for The Surreal Life: Fame Games, a game show-like version of the show where past cast members returned to see who is the biggest star.
