Melanie Mayron

I've noticed that too. She was not too attractive when she appeared on some episodes of Rhoda as Brenda's friend. She did have a lot of work done on her face by the time she appeared on Thirtysomething in the late 1980's. I agree that the work was well done.

That's EMMY WINNER Melanie Mayron

Before and after photos would help this thread immeasurably, OP.

Is this her?!

She had the work done in the early eighties. I remember being shocked seeing her in Missing with Sissy Spacek and Jack Lemmon. I only knew her in the past from Rhoda.

She had her face rebuilt. Good Lord. Great doctor. Never knew it was the same actress. She got lucky twice.

She's a lesbian, right?

Didn't she just lose weight? Though she never got her teeth fixed.

R8 Exactly. She just got thin.

No plastic surgery conspiracy. Just thinner with a dykey haircut.

Have not seen her in ages.

What a great link, OP.

WHET all of these people?

And a new nose

[quote] Have not seen her in ages.

Like me.

She directs TV now. Acts occasionally.

R10 she's more behind the camera as a director these days - she directed some eps of 'Julia' on MAX and some other things. A few acting roles here and there. She sure did have the quirky neighbor/gal pal/kooky receptionist thing going on the int late 70s/early 80s till 'thirtysomething' hit the airwaves. I do wonder what all she had done, surgery wise way back when.

She got skinny for Playing for Time.

Yes, r7, she was partnered and had kids with Cynthia Mort, AKA Green Gums. After they broke up, they bought houses in the same block, so the kids could be together. She was cool to work with, but Cynthia was insufferable, as was her GF at the time, Amanda Sheer-Demme.

Melanie Mayron walked so Tina Fey could run.

r18 Why 'green gums?'

The little girl in ANNIE HALL who declares that her adult self is into leather is always what I imagine Melanie Mayron looked like as a kid.

Raggedy Ann realness.

She got a shitload of work done.

She was incredibly homely in the 70s. I remember that. Especially her teeth. Must have been remarkable to remember that.

Just the nose, and she lost weight. She went from ugly duckling to intellectual princess. Good for her.

[quote]She sure did have the quirky neighbor/gal pal/kooky receptionist thing going on the int late 70s/early 80s till 'thirtysomething' hit the airwaves.

She did one of those types of roles in a 1978 movie called "Girlfriends" that plays fairly often on TCM.

R26. One of the same 14 movies TCM now plays in heavy rotation.

Her co-star who played Gary on "thirtysomething" was one of the most handsome men I had ever seen. I think he went on to become a comic film director.

Girlfriends is one of my favorite movies and I love Melanie in it. Greta Gerwig pretty much remade it as Francis Ha.

Peter Horton, R28. Married to Michelle Pfeiffer around the time they both arrived on the scene (or at least my consciousness.)

Nose job for sure but the rest is emaciation.

She wasn't attractive in Thirtysomething either. Though thinner.

[quote]r30 Peter Horton, [R28]. Married to Michelle Pfeiffer around the time they both arrived on the scene

Not to be confused with Peter Hooten, Bo Derek costar and life partner to wealthy, Pulitzer Prize winning poet James Merrill.

R32. Thank God!

I loved her character in thirtysomethibng. I love when characters don't have a direct bond to the core cast but still become important in their lives. I just thought that show was brilliant on every level if you grew up in that time. It was like a TV series of The Big Chill

Nobody else remembers her baring her bosom to Art Carney?

She was in an off-Broadway play last year with Brooke (people are being duplicated) Adams and Marilu Henner.

Marilu could give you the dates of the show and what people wore to rehersals.

Caroline Aaron, Brooke Adams, Marilu Henner, and Melanie Mayron, star in Madwomen of the West, a hilarious new comedy about an LA gals brunch that goes terribly wrong. Caroline Aaron (The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel), Brooke Adams (The Dead Zone), Marilu Henner (Taxi), and Melanie Mayron (thirtysomething) star in a rip-roaring comedy by Sandra Tsing Loh (NPR). Welcome to Jules’ stunning Brentwood mansion, where hangry (she's on a sugar cleanse) Marilyn is throwing a surprise birthday brunch for Claudia, who hates birthdays. Champagne corks pop—and tempers flare—when their long-estranged celebrity friend Zoey crashes the party, fresh from her TED Talks. Expect hilarity, outrageous rants, and unexpected wisdom about what it means to be a woman (no matter what pronouns you use) in the 21st century.

I loved thirtysomething.

R35 Melissa was Michael Steadman’s cousin iirc so she had that connection to the group.

I hated Thirtysomething. A gang of smug whiners.

Who played all the parents of the main cast of 30Something? I remember that was quite a list of interesting people but now can't remember any names except maybe Phyllis Newman.

No one on thirtysomething ever made it HUGE did they?

They were all talented (Polly Draper was my favorite,) but the massive careers people predicted for all of them never really materialized. I remember there being a splashy cover story in Entertainment Weekly when the finale was coming up talking about the cast's next projects and all, but nothing seemed to materialize. I know Mayron, Olin, Horton and Busfield all direct occasionally, and Olin is a very successful producer. No major acting gigs, though.

It's really too bad because they were all extremely likeable.

Also, Ken Olin was my fantasy boyfriend while I was in college.

He got fat, very fat.

[quote] she directed some eps of 'Julia' on MAX and some other things.

I was shocked when I looked up one of the small characters on Julia (the wife of Russ, the station manager) and it was her. She looked more like Dianne Feinstein.

She looks a little more like her old self in modern clothes but still has a touch of The Old Lady look about her.

Thirtysomething was THE show when I was in college. A big group of us would gather and watch it every week. I remember sobbing when Gary died and cheering when Nancy announced her cancer was gone.

Shirley Knight played Hope’s mom and won an Emmy for it.

I would have taken on all the men of thirtysomething.

I mean, Ken Olin was of course at the top, and Peter Horton right behind him. But yes, I think even Busfield and the guy who played Miles. I did have a white collar fetish at the time.

I briefly had a married, Jewish fuckbuddy who looked a lot like Olin. The sex was amazing, as was his furry chest. But the conversation after......oy vey. Turned into a therapy session every time. Great dick but not THAT great......

Mel Harris was Ali-McGraw-level awful in this. It's no surprise her career sputtered afterward.

My impression of Ken Olin was that he made the decision soon after the series finished to focus on directing and producing. But perhaps that came about when no decent offers for acting came through. Who Knows? Are he and Patricia Whatshername still married?

I used to see Ken Olin at the Barnes & Noble when it was open at the Westside Pavilion. He put on a lot of weight but was still a hot bear. I remember there were plans a few years ago to reboot the series with the kids of the thirtysomethings and with the original cast reprising their roles but nothing in a long time.

Killing off Gary when Nancy was the one who's death we were preparing ourselves for was a huge shock. Big topic of conversation in the office the next day.

Can't remember - did they kill off Gary because Peter Horton wanted out?

R50 Half the cast got involved with behind the scenes production.

I don't think with Olin it was so much he couldn't get cast, but that he was really interested in the production and writing side of it. He went on to do a lot of work on that. Of course on the Sally Field Programme he was a writer/producer and also made several appearances.

He is still married to Patricia Wettig.

I think they just drew straws.

Mel Harris turned in some good performances as Hope. The character was meant to be unlikeable at times.

Thirtysomething still holds up. I rewatched it all a few years ago. It’s timeless. Great writing, great cast, unique tone. It’s probably one of the most influential pieces of television of the last 50 years. It set the bar for “prestige” television and was an obvious influence on Six Feet Under, Mad Men, etc. It expanded the possibilities of television drama.

R57 Don’t be ridiculous. It was standard melodrama, no different than Sisters, or Brothers and Sisters, or similar. I dare you to find a modern showrunner who cites this show as some kind of North Star. 😂

Nobody cares what you think, R58. Run along.

Busfield (3), Harris (1), Horton (6), Mayron (2), and Olin (6) all directed episodes of thirtysomething. Polly Draper directed after the show. I wonder if Draper and Wettig were offered the chance.

Yes, Ken Olin’s subsequent work was carefully built on this series’ great artistic legacy. Oy vey.

Her look for Car Wash was perfect.

The revamp was got killed because of covid and never got brought back. Ed Zwick mentioned it in his book.

I had a massive, massive crush on Olin in the early 90's. Sigh.

Car Wash is underrated classic. So fucking funny, and great tunes. You couldn’t make it today—it would be overproduced to death.

R42 Phyllis Newman and Herb Edelman (also Dorothy's ex on Golden Girls) played Melissa's parents. Sylvia Sidney was her grandmother Shirley Knight and George Coe were Hope's parents Eileen Brenner and Eddie Albert were Elliot's divorced parents Barbara Barrie and Steven Hill were Michael's divorced parents Georgann Johnson was Gary's widowed mom Lois Smith/Betsy Blair both had roles as Ellyn's mother - I don't remember who played the dad

There were actually some great guest actors on the show; Brad Pitt was famously on an episode

Melanie's ex, Cynthia Mort, had an affair/dated Jodie Foster. In candid photos, it always looked like Jodie was smitten with Mort.

Her real name is Melanie Joy Mizrahi.

r65, that is an incredibly impressive list of actors, who I now remember seeing on the series.

Thanks for filling me in.

No mention of David Marshall Grant and Peter Frechette as TV's first same sex couple having sex?

They were dull, too.

I always found Wettig too brittle.

[Quote] WHET all of these people?

Polly Draper was so beautiful. Saw her in Hacks and didn’t recognize her til I googled. She was very funny on Hacks.

[Quote] The revamp was got killed because of covid

It sure done be.

I don't remember who played the dad

Ellyn's dad was the guy who was the killer in Klute.

R72, if you love Polly Draper definitely see Shiva Baby. She’s fantastic.

I think the second to last episode was Melissa in LA. There may have been an idea to spin off Melissa into her own show because this episode certainly showed Melanie could carry an episode by herself though the others had small appearances. Melanie was great at comedy. The episode featured her friend Brooke Adams as the lead in a TV show that Melissa was hired to take photos for an article. The episode also had Carol Burnett's ill-fated daughter as Brooke's assistant.

My sister knew Carrie @ Bennington. She was a fucked yo kid (not my sister).

[quote]I loved thirtysomething.

I agree. To this day I still think it holds its own as one of the greatest drama series of all time.

R29, I love ‘Girlfriends’ and if it were up to me I would have booted Ellen Burstyn or the winner, Jane Fonda, to make room for Mayron in that year’s Best Actress roster.

Mayron is friends with Sissy Spacek — they shared the same manager for years — and told a funny story about dating Spacek’s gynecologist and it inspiring an episode of ‘Thirtysomething.’

Regarding her looks, the work she had done was top-tier and she never denied having plastic surgery. I always thought she had a highly developed, cool sense of personal style and seemed like an interesting person.

Melanie's sister Gale was also on thirtysomething for a few episodes, playing ... Melissa's sister.

I loved the show at the time but Patricia Wettig’s voice drove me nuts - it was gelatinous.

R77

My sister also knew Carrie (not at Bennington but in high school - long story but Carrie lived in Sugar Land, TX for a time in the 80s) and I thought she was soooo cool. She wore the coolest clothes: blue velvet pants, acrylic pumps, bow ties, etc., when my sister’s other friends mainly wore Zeppelin shirts and Levi’s.

Gale Mayron has Melanie's old nose.

R78 we heard you the first time. Get a grip.

Her first movie was "Harry and Tonto." She played a hitchhiker and was pretty funny and natural on screen, making a small role memorable. 50 years later, she's still working in show biz, so I guess she's done OK.

Can't remember - did they kill off Gary because Peter Horton wanted out?

Yes. He was more interested in directing. Also the producers planned on killing off Nancy but after they received a backlash from cancer groups, they decided to let her live. As they were still interested in exploring how a death impacts a group of friends they killed off Gary instead.

Now that there are some before and after photos available for viewing, I'd say she definitely had a nose job and also a chin job.

Madwomen of the West review.

This sounds barf-worthy -

There comes a moment when a show tells you exactly who its audience is. In “Madwomen of the West,” a nostalgic new comedy by Sandra Tsing Loh with a cast of baby boomer screen stars, that moment is a singalong.

The song is “Love Is All Around,” the theme from “The Mary Tyler Moore Show.” When Marilu Henner led the crowd in singing it mid-scene on a Saturday afternoon at the Actors Temple Theater, in the Hell’s Kitchen neighborhood of Manhattan, there was no hesitation. Practically the whole room joined in, the lyrics lodged in people’s heads since the 1970s.

checkout the rehearsal photos.

Marilu looks great there.

R46- Who is that good looking guy on the upper right?

[quote]Mel Harris was Ali-McGraw-level awful in this. It's no surprise her career sputtered afterward.

You know what, r49? FUCK YOU. She was in “Murder She Wrote: South by Southwest” which was a whole TV movie, thank you very much, NOT just the regular TV series.

A little [italic]respect!

R50- Patricia Whatshername - LOL

I don't know why that's funny but it is.

It's really true about Mel Harris being a shit actress. I can't recall what show I was watching (I want to say it was a Sci Fi or maybe a supernatural type series) and she popped up as the mother. I was like "hey, it's Hope!" She was playing the part of a mother of a 20something person.

Boy, did she SUCK. Epic level suck. Wooden, one-note.

Patricia Wettig sounds EXACTLY like radio host Delilah...it's uncanny.

Patricia Wettig was considered hot stuff briefly. She had a scene-stealing turn in the 1991 Robert De Niro drama Guilty by Suspicion. He played a Kazan-type director and Patty was a Gale Sondergaard-type actress who was blacklisted, cuts her hair off and commits suicide.

Corey Parker as Lee, the man we learn marries Melissa. Dreamy as it GETS.

And Ken Olin. Jesus. I just watched an episode and he remains sexy AF. Peak beauty.

I loved how Susannah hated all of them.

R97- She was at her peak as a cancer patient in one of the last episodes of Thirtysomething.

[quote]r97 Patricia Wettig was considered hot stuff briefly. She had a scene-stealing turn in the 1991 Robert De Niro drama Guilty by Suspicion.

Always liked her quirky personality and work, I was a big “Car Wash” and “thirtysomething” fan, and I crushed on Olin in the ‘80s, too, despite the latent John Cassavetes vibes he gave off in their show.

Melissa was Michael Steadman’s cousin iirc so she had that connection to the group.

Also she dated Gary who was Michael's best friend.

That sounds just like any Real Housewives show at R38.

I think thirtysomething was melodrama at times as is life but I don't think it was anywhere close to a melodrama as a whole. If you wanna get closer to brilliant unique writing by the same team I still think My So Called Life is the most honest and thoughtful teenage show ever conceived. And not just for a teenage show. It was the first TV show that felt kinda like an independent film. Subtle but observant . And everyone in the cast was outstanding. I loved Mary Kay Place in it too.

R104- There's a scene where someone is telling her to talk to Jordan Catalano the very good looking cool guy she's obsessed with and she refuses saying if things didn't work out who would I think about all day- that was so funny and so true. Around the same time as the show or just after in 1996 there was a very good looking cool guy at Splash in Chelsea I was kind of obsessed with. One night my friend said he would start a conversation with my cool guy and bring me over. I said no way. I did not tell my friend but it was just like Claire Danes in My So Called Life. Who would I think about all of the time if he rejected me or seemed disinterested.

^It would spoil the fantasy of what may be possible somewhere down the line. But you don't wanna know just yet.

There's a moment in the show where someone from her old life makes their way into her "new" life and the voice over is completely perfect because we've all had this happen to us either with work friends when they meet your life friends, family when they meet your friends or one group of friends meets a different one. The line was something like "what I like dread is when people who know you in completely different ways end up in the same space and you're forced to create a combination of yourself on the spot." It was perfect.

R101, I love that “latent John Cassavetes vibe”. So true.

Let’s be friends.

Thirtysomething always had the best Christmas episodes. The first season, Joni Mitchell one is a classic.

Mel Harris always gave Kate Jackson beyatch vibes.

Patricia Arquette appears in an early role as the girlfriend of Lee's best friend when Lee is dating Melissa. Melissa has a funny scene as an older woman at a young club bar asking for a glass of water. He says he doesn't have water cand she asks what he washes the glasses with? She gets her water and then a young girl pukes on her shoes.

Is it streaming anywhere?

Gale Mayron appears to have retired from acting to be a mum.

I was with a friend who was auditioning for Crocodile Dundee 3, sitting in a hallway waiting for his turn to read when Mayron came in and sat on the floor directly across from me. I was respectful for about twenty minutes while she read the lines and then quietly spoke up and told her how much I loved her on thirtysomething. I didn't mention how the mighty have fallen for her to come on an open call.

What was her response?

I guess Melanie was reading for the part that Aida Turturro got.

WHET Aida Turturro?

[quote]What was her response?

A quick thank you. I had many brief interactions with celebs as I lived in West Hollywood the last half of the 90s. The Pavillions at Robertson was full of them.

I ran into Steven Webber in the frozen food aisle of Ralph’s on Sunset.

It was surreal. I wish I’d had a little warning as I’ve always had a crush on him - but he just popped up out of nowhere in the Eggos waffles section!

Nice, R119! Did you say hello to him?

I bumped carts with Cotas Mandylor at Pavillons. He was wearing a white wife beater and grey sweats. Commando. He smiled and went on his merry way.

[quote]R120 Nice, [R119]! Did you say hello to him?

No! I don’t think I even smiled. I have strange reactions to encountering celebrities. I don’t react consistently.

I chatted with Anjelica Huston when I was next to her in line at a box office - but other times I freeze. Part of it has to be jealousy… like, you’re famous and I’m not, which has set up this dynamic where I’m supposed to be impressed and pay tribute/attention to you in some way, and [italic]I’m not going to give you that![/italic] So I default to just ignoring them.

It depends, though. If I’m not feeling too insecure I’m nice!

r122, you don't think those celebs were just as happy you didn't start chatting with them?

Actors actually like being recognized. When they’re not, they get nervous. For good reason.

R119- I would say his looks were at their peak ca. 1994 when he starred in the movie Jeffrey.

Mayron played Brenda Morgenstern's best friend "Sandy" in three episodes of 'Rhoda' during the first season. The writers tried making her a 'semi regular' with the cast, but her storylines never really went forward - so suddenly, Brenda's best friend was never ever mentioned again.

Same with 'Suzie', Rhoda's best friend. She appeared in a few episodes and then disappeared without a trace. Those women just couldn't keep friends.

[quote]R125 I would say his looks were at their peak ca. 1994 when he starred in the movie Jeffrey.

Well, I didn’t tell him THAT!

We actually made eye contact, as we were reaching into side-by-side areas. I’m the kind of person who smiles at and chats with a lot of people. So when I say I could have been nicer, I just mean I would have treated him like I do most people - in a warm and open manner.

Truthfully, I flirt with strangers all the time. It makes them feel good and it makes me laugh, later.

^^ (signed) r119

I’m supposed to be impressed and pay tribute/attention to you in some way, and I’m not going to give you that! So I default to just ignoring them.

Depends who it is. If it is someone who has genuinely achieved great things they deserve a tribute. If it's some person famous for being famous, then they don't.

I know. Mine is not a logical or thought out response : )

One way I’ve become nicer is I now always lie and say I loved actors in whatever I’ve seen. I used to be really snobby and intellectual about what I liked, and I’d never, ever veer from that after seeing a play or movie, if I met the cast. But now I almost gleefully throw myself into complimenting everyone - it’s what they want to hear and it makes them happy, and it doesn’t really effect (affect?) anything either way.

I saw a play last week and noted in the program 2 people in the cast attended my alma mater. So I went backstage to pay my compliments and ended up telling everyone I crossed paths with back there how great they were - even though it wasn’t really that great. But oh well… saying that won’t make the world a better place.

People deserve a little joy.

Why do elder gays lie?

I bumped carts with Jared Leto at Fry's and he was stark naked.

[quote]R131 Why do elder gays lie?

Because we have been taught by masters..

R119 / R122 This never happened.

Um, what would be extraordinary about it?

Ken Olin was beautiful but for me it was also his voice.

I briefly had a white collar, Jewish FB that looked a whole lot like him, and like Olin, he had this great voice....more than once he made me cum just by what he would say or growl into my ear......

[quote] R131 Why do elder gays lie?

Because when you've reached our age, there's not much else left to do.

Ken Olin had a strange accent to my ear. Can anyone identify it?

He has no specific accent. He does talk through his nose, to some degree.

R129- I feigned disinterest in 2015 when a good looking cashier at Trader Joe's started flirting with me. I was actually very attracted to him and noticed him months earlier but I could not handle my daydream actually being interested in me so I feigned indifference.

R139- I disagree. He had a Midwestern/Chicago accent.

[quote]R140 I feigned disinterest when a good looking cashier at Trader Joe's started flirting with me. I was actually very attracted to him and noticed him months earlier but I could not handle my daydream actually being interested in me, so I feigned indifference.

Yes! We really know how to SHOW ‘EM!

I thought this was a thread about me, bitches!

You’re a washed up has-been, Mel. Go get a decent acting job and we’ll talk about you some more.

R144 are you directing that comment to me or to the Jewish lesbian? I'll have you know I went to Princeton.

That was actually directed at Ms. Mayron. Sorry.

But since you’re here, Ms. Harris, is it true you were married SIX TIMES? [italic] Why on earth…??

So weird she was around in the 70s and in movies, some well regarded today. This is one old bitch best known for some tv. She was never really famous either.

Something about Mel Harris I really don't like. Starting with those looks!

R141 references two completely different accents. Noted.

Well, Ken Olin was born in Chicago in 1954 if that means anything.

I was born in Boston and have no accent. What’s your point?

I'm guessing your parents didn't have Boston accents either, r151? I think that can determine a lot about one's accent.

You guessed wrong. Thanks for playing today.

I’ve always thought she looked pretty attractive in Car Wash, at least as pictured below. But she looked awful in Rhoda and in some of the other films she did in the 70s. She looked attractive in Thirtysomething and looks great now.

R58: So much better than "Sisters" or "Brothers and Sisters". I think "Sisters" tried for a similar tone, but Zwick & Herskovitz had a particular style that others couldn't duplicate.

The show went on too long and probably should have ended after Gary's death, but several of the story arcs were remarkable. I was working with cancer patients when they did the cancer arc and except for the new age-y episode (which seemed out of place for Philly), it was far beyond the usual disease of the week crap--both the writing and the acting. The arc when Michael's father died happened when I was settling my Dad's estate--again much more realistic than the usual bereavement stuff and the brother's cluelessness is the sort of thing that happens with a death.

It was a tv show —Christ. And not a landmark.

R156=Patricia Kalember as Susannah

Susannah was too realistic a pill. She really sucked the life out of her scenes.

Melissa was a bit of a doormat so Susannah was a nice contrast. And poor Melissa kept suffering at how Gary and Susannah's relationship kept advancing until they had a child - something that Melissa was desperate for. Melissa even got stiffed of going to their wedding.

R146 You're excused. And to answer you questions, yes SIX times. Some people just like planning things and eating cake. And some of us just like test driving men. Sure, Cotter Smith looked like a Temu Ken Olin but let me tell you that was some quality dick. But I got him at peak hotness.

Merry Christmas to you, dear.

Mel Harris looked like the tv version of Demi Moore, who has now herself become the tv version of Demi Moore...

Melissa had a romance with gyno Dr. Bob Kramer (Robin Thomas) in season 1. He came to the relationship with a daughter but still Melissa wanted her own child so but broke it off with him when he wouldn't have another child with her.

R151 I disagree. I always thought Rena Sofer looked like the tv version of Demi Moore.

R163. Wrong thread?

Lots of hot men on 'Thirtysomething', but I had the serious hots for David Clennon, as Miles Drentell. Clennon returned as Miles Drentell - the same character - on 'Once and Again' in 1999. 'Once and Again' was also created by Marshall Herskovitz and Edward Zwick.

Clennon taught me that my gaydar was fallible.

She was okay on Thirtysomething but her character tended to be whiney.

Melissa had a brief romance with Miles but it ended badly.

166 posts in and this is still going. Probably because most of the posts have actually been about 30something.

Melissa's young boyfriend on Thirtysomething played a HOMO in The Lost Language Of The Cranes.

Yes, that would be Corey Parker, r169.

Now, WHET Corey Parker?

Corey Parker hung out with a lot of gay theatre actors in the 1980s but I was never sure if he was gay or not.

R170- Yes and he was so good looking on Thirtysomething.

A friend of. Mine knew Corey Parker and his wife back in the 90s. Not sure if they are still married.

check out his website

I used to see Corey around Memphis when he was teaching acting here. VERY cute.

Corey's mom, Rochelle "Rocky" Parker was an actors' manager who had an infamous affair with her son's friend Patrick "McDreamy" Dempsey, when they were teenagers. Nice to see that McD is on Corey's website now spouting a testimonial to his acting classes.

R176

It was more than an affair; they were married from 1987-1994. When they married, he was 21 and she was 47.

I think Rocky paid for McD's nose job and other surgery.

Corey's sister Noelle was also on thirtysomething. She played Cindy who was Melissa's assistant at the gallery when Melissa had a photo show.
