Movies and TV shows from the ’80s and ’90s will forever be in our hearts. The whole generation grew up with shows like Full House, girls were glued to their TV screens to hear all about Clarissa Darling’s life, and the world collectively worried for Rachel and Ross’s relationship for an entire decade. It’s been about 40 years since the ’80s and 30 years since the ’90s, and if you saw some of your favorite actors from that era today, you probably wouldn’t even recognize them.
