Maureen McCormick

From Brady to battles with fame, Maureen’s journey is real, raw, and totally relatable. She’s dabbled in music, memoirs, and reality TV with a smile as bright as ever.

Tony Danza

Performing his acclaimed cabaret show, appearing in Power Book III: Raising Kanan, and nurturing aspiring actors through his youth program.

Demond Wilson

After Sanford and Son, Demond became a minister and author, trading TV scripts for scripture. Hollywood to holy word, a twist even Redd Foxx didn’t see coming.

Sally Struthers

Sally’s been lighting up local theater stages and championing child advocacy worldwide. She’s got the same sass, same voice and, yep, she’ll still make you laugh and cry in one scene flat.

Henry Winkler

From “Happy Days” to Emmy-winning dramatic turns, Henry’s still riding high; cooler than ever, and now with reading glasses. The leather jacket? Still fits. Ayyy.

Graeme Garden

Though he’s mostly off-screen, Graeme’s sharp wit never retired. He’s popped up on radio and comedy panels, still dishing out dry British brilliance.

Valerie Bertinelli

Back on screen as game show host and TV contributor, filming a Lifetime movie, embracing fitness goals and kept honest about her nerves!

Joyce DeWitt

Janet from Three’s Company returned to the stage and made select TV appearances, but avoids the limelight. Still rockin’ that classic brunette charm, minus the sitcom shenanigans.

Susan Dey

Susan exited stage left decades ago, leaving fans with a quiet grace that’s rare in Hollywood. No scandals, no selfies; just dignity. Laurie Partridge would approve.

Barry Williams

Barry’s been touring with 70s music shows, doing theater, and even hit Dancing with the Stars. The Brady charm? Still intact. The hair? Still feathered.

Jaclyn Smith

A powerhouse entrepreneur with fashion, beauty, home lines, and fragrance; still stylishly active in business, fitness, and family life.

Barbara Feldon

Agent 99 went undercover, for real. Barbara stepped out of the spotlight decades ago and into a quiet, writerly life. No gadgets, no Get Smart; just a graceful fadeout, like a true spy would do.

Cheryl Ladd

At 72, still shining: Dancing with the Stars contestant, author, philanthropist, and champion of child advocacy, with new memoir underway.

Bill Oddie

The Goodies’ madcap maestro swapped comedy for conservation. These days, he’s more into bird calls than punchlines, proof that you can go from silly to serious… and still be Oddie.

Shelley Hack

Shelley ditched Hollywood’s chaos for a quieter life behind the scenes. A true mystery woman, she’s been keeping it low-key and classy, just like her perfume commercials.

Carol Burnett

A legend at 91, starring in Palm Royale (possibly her acting swan song), while developing new projects behind the camera and always up for a cameo!

Helen Mirren

At 80 and still front and center: starring in The Thursday Murder Club, active in 1923 and MobLand, and soon appearing in the thriller Switzerland.

Ernest Lee Thomas

Actor, author, mentor, and producer; continues acting while sharing his life lessons through books and developing new talent.
