Which Guest Star Would You Have Liked To See More Of? - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

Is there a guest from the show that you would have liked to see have a reoccurring role, or guest star a few more times than just once?

I would like more to see River Phoenix as a recurring character. He was very cute.

I would have liked Tom Hanks to appear more often. He was great as Elyse's brother: Ned Donnelly. In the alcoholism episode, he showed that he can do drama as well as comedy.
that was a heavy episode.

I agree, Tom Hanks was awesome on the show.

I think it would have been interesting to have Judith Light appear more than once in the show.

Oh yes! I agree. I love Judith Light, does anyone have this ep on tape? The one with Ms. Light as a guest star?

I liked Daphne Zuniga's character, Rachel Miller. I've found that I don't like the actress much in other roles, but I did like Rachel as one of Alex's girlfriends.

Tom Hanks was good too.

And does Tracy Pollan count as a guest star since she wasn't credited as a regular? If so, then I would definitely love to see her on for more than just one season.

Yeah, that was a good episode and I also wish we could have seen more of him. I wonder what happened to his character after that episode
