Ben McKenzie went on to be one of the main stars in Southland but Mischa Barton's career went down the crapper [or the bottom of a vodka bottle]
For some reason Seven bought her out here a year or two ago for the Melbourne Cup.

Yeah I remember he was on Southland but heard that got cancelled.

No Idea what happened to Mischa, I remember she started getting into the fashion industry but this was like... a couple years after O.C finished.

Have heard nothing from Adam Brody, I remember he had a little cameo in Mr and Mrs Smith LOL that was a loooong time ago.

I know Rachel Bilson is a the star of Hart of Dixie, a pretty girly show but I've watched the first season just for her :p

Also, I think the lesbian that Marissa got with is Olivia Wilde (?). Her career is going strong.

'Pretty' girly? :p

My favourite actresses growing up were the Olsen twins, Hilary Duff and Amanda Bynes. I think Hilary Duff was the only one to make it through unscathed, she's married with a kid now. Amanda Bynes has made a few poor decisions lately :eek:

Hahaha, yeah I downplayed that a bit. Didn't want to say it's the girliest show there is because I still plan on catching up :p

I don't remember much scandal around the Olsen Twins, pretty sure they are doing fashion. Yeah, nothing has happened to Hilary Duff although her acting career didn't really go anywhere after Lizzie Mcguire. And Amanda Bynes is the new Lohan.

I smashed through season 1, watching season 2 at the moment. I watch it for the lame girly plots though, not Rachel Bilson in those shorts of hers :p

I can't remember exactly what happened with the Olsen twins, but Mary-Kate had an eating disorder and I think Ashley tried to pursue acting alone, but that didn't really work out. I loved Lizzie McGuire, great show for girls growing up.

Just had a look back in my hard drive. yeah I finished Season 2, so I'm ahead of you right now :p

But I just remember the second half of the season was a real struggle for me.... had to take a break from it haha
 
Back in 1993/1994, five very promising young TV presenters were on the resurrected show "Wonder World". Catriona Rowntree has gone on to a big career on Channel 9, while Nick Penn did not continue with TV, but became a stand-up comedian.

Jodie Young and Tony Johnston were presenters on several TV shows in the late 1990s/early 2000s but have since faded into obscurity. Red-haired Pascall Fox was not seen for some time after Wonder World, came back to television on several home renovation shows in c.2002/2003, before vanishing completely.

Does anyone know what became of Jodie Young, Tony Johnston and Pascall Fox?

Greatest show ever for a young horny kid like i was when it was on. Tottie Goldsmith, mmmm. Wish you could get that show somewhere.

Whatever happened to Nick Stahl? Was in terminator 3 and a few other movies and was tipped for big things.

On meth and in jail.

Interesting that his co-star in Bully, Brad Renfro died of a heroin overdose a few years back.

not pretty enough for hollywood I would have thought.
 
From memory, Rachel Bilson and Hayden Christiansen tied the know at some point (they were both in Jumper, so since then I assume).

Some I wonder about;

Todd Reid (the Australian tennis player around 2002-05) - got injured and never even mentioned again in the media

Ben(?) on The Big Arvo/The Big Breakfast around 1999-2003. James Tobin (Sunrise) and the guy that hosts X Factor both came through The Big Arvo, but haven't heard much about the main guy since the show stopped.

Tom Budge - haven't seen him in film/TV for a couple years, used to corner the weirdo supporting character market for a few years there

Selwyn - An R&B Australia/South African singer in the early 00s.

Mischa was in a few crappy movies she has a heap of stuff coming up on imdb apparently. The last movie I saw her in she had resorted to getting her gear off to get acting gigs apparently

Adam Brody was the only talented one in the whole show, Ben Mckenzie you could of replaced with a bit of chip board with an angry face on it

Mischa's sister Willa Holland is in Arrow so shes done alright for herself

Ha. I always wonder about stuff like this when I'm watching old crap on tv.

I suppose a lot of actresses focus on their families.

Ok:

Cathy Silvers (Phil Silvers' daughter)? She played Jenny Piccalo on Happy Days.
Cathy Silvers - IMDb

I thought she was cute and funny yet, despite being in 55 episodes of one of the biggest shows ever, she effectively quit acting 2 years after Happy Days finished. She did a couple of cameos in the '90s, and that was it.

Terry Farrell? Along with lots of other stuff, she was in Deep Space Nine for 6 years, followed by Becker for 4 years, after which time she was given the boot (2002).

There are varying accounts of why she fired from Becker but, apparently, she lead a mini-strike after some of the support cast weren't given the pay rise they were promised, so that may have been the reason. The creator of the show said that she was only fired so that they could freshen the show, but this sounds like bullshit, coz the program was the 13th most watch show in 2002 (climbing from 16th the previous year).

Either way, Becker's ratings went down the poop-shoot after she left, and she's done nothing since.

Claudia Wells, the original "Jennifer" in Back To The Future. After being in one of the biggest movies of the '80s, she had only one role in 22 years, before making a comeback in 2011. Wiki says that she quit the biz to help look after her cancer-stricken mother, but I also read that she suffered from depression

Nicola Charles?
Wasn't she meant to be the "next big thing"? She did virtually nothing after she left Neighbours in 1999 to become a "singer" in the UK.

Kimberly Davies' gigs have been sporadic at best since she moved to America.

Cassidy Rae. She was in Melrose Place, Models Inc. and few episodes of Just Shoot me (plus other stuff), then suddenly disappeared in 2001.
It says on Wiki that she's retired

She's back living in Melbourne.Often gets mentioned in the Hun for popping up at the opening of fridge doors.
Didn't she pop up in Neighbours again in the last year or two ?

I had to google to find the answer LOL!
She retired from singing in 2005, doing various roles in movies and done some bikini modelling! Talk about falling out of the spotlight! She was huge back in the late 90s early 00s. She even performed at the 2000 Sydney Olympics!

She wasn't huge in the large 90s.... The Olympics was the 1st time anyone ever heard of her, and she had a pretty unsuccessful career since, couple of songs, was in zoo magazine or something

She was certainly never huge
