Understandably the cast members most prominently featured on reunion or talk shows have been David Cassidy, Shirley Jones, Danny Bonaduce and Susan Dey.
Suzanne Crough and Brian Forster have hardly been on any talk show and also Jeremy Gelbwaks. In fact Suzanne and Brian and Jeremy had only been on Danny's talk show (or that is my understanding) and Suzanne and Brian made one more appearance on the Today Show during the Partridge reunion.

It would have been interesting if an entire segment on a talk show was about the youngest cast members of the Partridge Family.
What was it like?
Were Brian and Suzanne into David Cassidy's music and were impressed by him as a rock star since kids Brian's and Suzanne's age were largely David's fans? Did they ever attend his concerts? Suzanne had many young brothers and sisters. Were they always bugging her to go to the TV set with her? Brian reportedly was impressed with Susan Dey. Did he try to flirt with her like Susan Dey tried to "flirt" with David Cassidy?
Did Brian and Suzanne decide to leave show business intentionally or was it because they only had a reputation for being "Partridge kids" and could not find any serious acting roles?
Brian became a race car driver. How did he make that transition? Did his kids listen to Partridge Family music growing up, or David Cassidy's music?

Suzanne became a wife who sacrificed her career so her husband can go to school (or that is what I believe I heard), but after her kids were grown she reportedly was thinking of going back to acting but she already had been too many years out of the spotlight. True?
Did she have her kids listen to the music of the Partridge Family? One of her daughters reportedly went into the military. Interesting.

What really caught my eye is that several people in the comments section remarked that Susan Dey seemed intoxicated during her appearance on The Arsenio Hall Show. Susan really did have a history with alcoholism, so I really don't think that it's that far out of line to want to believe something like that.

And I had previously posted a "blind item", which seemed to suggest that her career didn't reach its fuller potential because of an alleged substance abuse problem. Somebody online even said that Susan seemed a bit "whacked out" when she appeared as a guest on The Rosie O'Donnell Show.
