FOX; Justin Lee
We first said "Annyong" to
Lee in 2004, when the actor joined the critically acclaimed Arrested
Development as Lucille's adopted Korean son. Since then, ABC Family fans
might have spotted him in a recurring role on 10 Things I Hate About You.
And, of course, prepare to say "Annyong" to Lee when he returns to
Season 4 of Arrested Development.
Michael Fishman, 'Roseanne'
(1988-1997)
ABC; Apega/WENN
After finishing his run as D.J. on Roseanne,
Fishman got a taste of normalcy when he returned to the Orange County High
School of the Arts. But the acting bug began itching again, leading Fishman to
re-team with his famous co-star on The Roseanne Show, on which he served
as producer and sidekick for two years. Despite a role in A.I. Artificial
Intelligence, Fishman has largely stepped away from the industry, though he
continues to write and act when he's not raising his two children.
Hana Hatae, 'Star Trek: Deep Space
Nine' (1993-1999)
CBS; FOX
Hatae's career as an actress might
have ended following her stint as Molly O'Brien on Deep Space Nine. But
she returned to television one last time in 2010 as a hostess and waitress for
her family's Japanese restaurant, which was featured on Kitchen Nightmares.
Where she is now is a mystery. Blame Gordon Ramsay?
Jenna von Oy, 'Blossom' (1990-1995)
NBC; Facebook
von Oy tried the simple life after
playing six for five years, but dropped out of the University of Southern
California after two years to return to acting. Following a long stint on The
Parkers, von Oy jumpstarted a career in country music, releasing her first
album in 2007. Though her music career never quite blossomed, her personal life
did — von Oy and husband Brad Bratcher welcomed a daughter in 2012.
Jeremy Jackson, 'Baywatch'
(1991-1999)
NBC; DJDM/WENN
It seems Jackson, who starred as
Hobie on the lifeguard-centric series, could have used a lifesaver of his own.
After leaving Baywatch due to a struggle with drugs, Jackson was
arrested for drug possession, which quickly inspired him to clean up. That is,
until he joined Celebrity Rehab with Dr. Drew in 2011 for a steroid
addiction. But the troubles don't stop there: the actor has been involved in a
sex tape controversy, Vh1's depressing Confessions of a Teen Idol, and
Ed Hardy Clothing, which he publicly endorses.
Marla Sokoloff, 'Full House'
(1993-1995)
ABC; FayesVision/WENN
Stephanie Tanner's troubled friend
Gia's life sure turned around following Full House. The actress starred
in films like Dude, Where's My Car? and Sugar & Spice, and
later scored a regular role on The Practice. Though Sokoloff still gets
steady work in Hollywood, she has stayed out of the limelight — until
ex-boyfriend James Franco told Howard Stern earlier this year the duo made a sex
tape together as teens.
Jeremy Miller, 'Growing Pains'
(1985-1992)
ABC; Reggie Collier/ WENN
It's no wonder Miller took a break
from acting after starring as young Ben Seaver. After all, he lived through
such terrifying ordeals as fielding a stalker eventually apprehended by the FBI
and befriending Saved By the Bell star Dustin Diamond. But after a brief
stint at the University of Southern California, Miller began his comeback in
the late 2000s, appearing in films like Milk and Fashion and Never
Have I Ever.
Nate Richert, 'Sabrina, the Teenage
Witch' (1996-2003)
ABC; Asia Butterfly Photography;
Facebook
Though it seems no amount of magic
could return Richert to television — the actor left the industry shortly after
finishing Sabrina — fans can see him on the road, where he performs
original music. In fact, the former actor released his debut solo album just
this January. That's right — Harvey's a musician, making it that much easier to
fall under his spell again.
Mackenzie Rosman, '7th Heaven'
(1996-2007)
The WB; Nikki Nelson / WENN
The actress who played adorable
Ruthie Camden on the WB series continues to reach out to younger audiences.
Following 7th Heaven, Rosman landed a role in ABC Family's The Secret
Life of the American Teenager, and recently agreed to appear in a Maxim
photo shoot. Sigh. They grow up so fast.
Olivia D'Abo, 'The Wonder Years'
(1988-1993)
ABC; FayesVision/WENN
D'Abo's on-screen alter-ego, Karen
Arnold, might have been rebellious, but the actress' career has been quite
grounded since Wonder Years wrapped. D'Abo has had roles in Wayne's
World 2 and Law & Order: Criminal Intent, and developed a
respectable voice career with parts in projects like Star Wars: The Clone
Wars. And she's romanced some big names along the way — D'Abo, who has also
released an album was formerly engaged to both Thomas Jane and Julian Lennon.
Josh Saviano, 'The Wonder Years'
(1988-1993)
ABC; Twitter
Seems life does imitate art.
Shortly after Wonder Years fans learned Paul Pfeiffer attended Harvard,
Saviano also enrolled in an Ivy league institution, Yale. But while Saviano
disappeared from Hollywood, he certainly didn't disappear from gossip — for
years, rumors circulated that Saviano was actually rocker Marilyn Manson. But
the former actor definitely isn't living the rock-and-roll lifestyle.
Currently, Saviano works as a partner for law firm Morrison Cohen.
Josh Server, 'All That' (1994-2005)
Nickelodeon; JoshServer.net
It's no wonder Server is All That
longest-running cast member. The actor simply couldn't keep away from Nickelodeon.
After finishing his long stint on the sketch comedy series, Server appeared on
shows like Alex Mack, Figure It Out, Kenan & Kel, and The
Amanda Show. Server's career has slowed down in recent years, but the
industry should keep an ear out for the artist formerly known as Earboy, who is
currently auditioning for roles. (And, based on his good looks, keep an eye out
too!)
Lori Beth Denberg, 'All That'
(1994-1998)
Nickelodeon; Facebook
Ready for some vital information
about All That's "Vital Information" star? The actress, who
enjoyed a long stint on The Steve Harvey Show after out-growing
Nickelodeon, recently appeared on a Workaholics episode, despite
quitting acting in the mid-2000s. Why did she decide to leave Hollywood?
According to Denberg herself at a 2011 All That reunion, the
then-35-year-old actress said she was "living out her old age."
Madeline Zima, 'The Nanny'
(1993-1999)
