Antenna TV is running all the Christmas episodes of Wings, the 90s sit-com with Crystal Bernard, Steve Weber, Tim Daly, Thomas Haden Church, David Schramm, Rebecca Schull, and a young Tony Shalhoub.
I remember that series as the epitome of the happy 90s.

What the hell ever happened to Crystal Bernard?
by Anonymous | reply 1 | December 26, 2015 5:09 AM |
About ten years ago, she said she likes hanging out with her friends and going to the gym.
She may still be singing, too, but I never really followed that side of her career -- I liked her Lifetime "woman in peril" movies best.

R2, thanks. I did a google search and she is apparently still single. I thought she was hot during Wings.

Eric McCormack would have been a better choice to play Brian than Steven Weber. Weber and Tim Daly looked totally unrelated.

Crystal Bernard is a fundie who runs back to church for forgiveness after every lesbian affair she has.

No, r7 -- it's worse than that. Immediately after sex, she jumps out of bed and runs to the private chapel she set up in her house to call to Jesus for forgiveness.
Must be fun for her dates.

I love the image of Crystal Bernard after finishing yet another heavy scissoring session, runs down to her private closet chapel ala Margaret White and pleads for forgiveness...like every night. Crystal, you really need to pull yourself together.

Is Crystal Bernard the poor man's Park Overall, or vice versa?

From what I saw, TV writers just used Park Overall just to mouth their smutty thoughts.

I forgot it was a Angell/Casey/Lee production (the Cheers/Fraiser people) until I saw the credits.
I'm still sad about losing David Angell.

Thomas Haden Church is still acting. He's in "Daddy's Home" that's out now with Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell. He was in the awful "Max" that came out earlier this year.

I adored Fay. She wasn't on the show much the final season or so and I assumed she was ill but I saw her in something recently and she looked great and still seemed sharp.
by Anonymous | reply 27 | December 26, 2015 6:06 PM |
It was a long time before I saw the actress who played Fay in anything else (she had a recurring role on USA network's "Suits"), but the guy who played Roy really dropped off the face of the earth.

I'm 100% homo, but I thought Crystal Bernard was cute and sexy. Of course, I also didn't mind staring at Tim Daly, either.
I thought this thread was about the Paul McCartney band from the seventies...

He ruined the show for me. That fake accent was so hard to take, I had to turn it off. It was so much better without him.

Well Weber and Daley look more like brothers than McCormack looks like Daley.

Bryan Cranston, Daniel Stern, Nick Cassavetes, and Boyd Gaines auditioned for the role of Joe.
The character of Lowell was written for Thomas Haden Church
Peri Gilpin, Lisa Darr, Julianne Moore, Gina Gershon, Marcia Cross, Marcia Gay Harden, Rita Wilson, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and Megan Mullally all auditioned for the role of Helen. Gilpin was the producer's favorite, but NBC didn't like her for the role,

Barrie, they probably didn't hire you because they didn't want to give you a damn vanity credit, since nobody has ever known who the eff you are and absolutely no one was ever held accountable for giving you one on "It's a Living"

R38 Actually, they DID want me, but I had to turn them down because they refused to let me do my signature twirl/spin in the opening credits.

This was one of those sows where the supporting characters were more fun than the mains, but the whole thing would have been adrift without Daily and Weber.

Bump!
Does anyone have any behind-the-scenes gossip about the show? I read somewhere that Crystal Bernard and Farrah Forke (Alex) didn't get along.
Oh, and here's some season 3 bloopers!
