WHERE ARE THEY NOW?



Nickelodeon; FayesVision/WENN
Mitchell found promise as a young comedian after teaming with All That co-star Kenan Thompson in Kenan & Kel, and, on the big screen, Good Burger. But the duo split soon after Kenan & Kel's wrap, and even competed against one another while auditioning for SNL. Thompson won the role, while Mitchell began a rapping career. (He even starred in Kanye West's video for "All Falls Down.") Mitchell has, however, returned to his acting roots, writing and starring in Dance Fu and lending his voice to several TV series.
Leanna Creel, 'Saved By the Bell' (1992-1993)

NBC; Vimeo
Brought in as a temporary replacement for Tiffani Thiessen and Elizabeth Berkley in Saved By the Bell's final season (NBC's episode order complicated contract talks with the original cast), Creel never quite reached her co-stars' level of stardom in her role as tomboy Tori Scott. But Creel — one-third of a set of acting triplets — parlayed Tori into parts on Ned and Stacey and 2000's The Cell. Soon after, Creel left Hollywood to be a wedding photographer, and scored some wedded bliss of her own, marrying wife Rinat Greenberg in 2008.
Steven Anthony Lawrence, 'Even Stevens' (2001-2003)

Disney; Showtime
Beans has sprouted into a young man since his days on the Disney Channel hit, scoring roles in Kicking & Screaming and, more recently, on an episode of Weeds. Though he has yet to find a part as beloved as Beans, Lawrence has found a lucrative career starring in commercials for companies like Old Spice and T-Mobile.
Trevor Einhorn, 'Frasier' (1996-2003)

NBC; Noam Nitzani/WENN
The actor who portrayed Frasier and Lilith's son Frederick certainly isn't hearing the blues a-callin' these days. Einhorn followed up his long run on the NBC sitcom with a roles in Joan of Arcadia and Sons & Daughters before locking in his most recent role: Mathis on Mad Men. No doubt TV will be callin' him again.
Blake and Dylan Tuomy-Wilhoit, 'Full House' (1992-1995)
ABC; Twitter
Unlike their on-screen cousins Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen (and their real-life cousin, My So-Called Life's Lisa Wilhoit), the Tuomy-Wilhoit twins — who played Nicky and Alex Katsopolis — disappeared from Hollywood as quickly as the mullet. Now, after leaving the industry post-Full House to live a normal life, you can find the California-born twins on Twitter, where they often answer questions about their '90s-era fame.
Brian Bonsall, 'Family Ties' (1986-1989)

NBC; Myspace
You might also know Bonsall as Andy from Family Ties. Or you might know him from police reports — after Bonsall left Hollywood in 1995, the actor-turned-punk musician found himself in police custody for a DUI, assault, and possession of marijuana, among other charges. Most recently, Bonsall was serving two years' probation for a third-degree assault charge.
Danny Tamberelli, 'The Adventures of Pete & Pete' (1993-1996)

Nickelodeon; No Credit
Trying to balance work with childhood must have certainly been an adventure for Little Pete — not only did he star in the Nickelodeon hit, but Tamberelli also boasted roles in The Baby-Sitters Club, The Mighty Ducks, and, following his Pete & Pete success, All That. Though Tamberelli hasn't appeared on the small or big screen since participating in 2005's All That reunion, he did manage to eke in one single adult-oriented role in 2002's Igby Goes Down.
Michael C. Maronna, 'The Adventures of Pete & Pete' (1993-1996)

Nickelodeon; Funny Or Die
The actor also known as Big Pete couldn't quite replicate Pete & Pete's big success, but managed to nab small parts in films like Slackers and 40 Days and 40 Nights, and even scored a role in a series of Ameritrade ads so popular, they were the subject of a sketch at Bill Clinton's final White House Correspondents' Dinner in 2000. The actor has also put his filmmaking degree to good use, working behind-the-scenes films like Tower Heist and Sex and the City.
