Daphne Zuniga?? Was she in melrose place in the 90s??
jennifer beals? What was she in? I actually totally forgot about eddie murphy you know. What a great movie beverly hills cop was, got a sneaky feeling he started the trend for that kind of character on screen - ie chris tucker, chris rock, waynes bros, wil smith, martin lawrence

Daphne Zuniga was in a few 80's gems (The Sure Thing, Modern Girls, Spaceballs)...I always thought she was beautiful...up there with Phoebe Cates...but her career never really did take off like I'd wished. And yes, she was in Melrose.

Jennifer Beals is Alex from Flashdance...check out the cover...she's beautiful too...hmmm....Phoebe Cates, Jennifer Beals, Daphne Zuniga, Jamie Gertz...an obvious thing for brunettes!

And yeah...Eddie Murphy was one of the 80's comedy kings (48 hours, Trading Places, Beverly Hills Cop, Saturday Night Live)...too bad his career took such a nose dive.

i recognised her name as its so unusual. Ahhh jennifer beals - got ya. Phoebe cates, nicole egert and jennifer connerly got my attention at the age of 14. I think eddie murphy had a high bench mark and found his niche, unfortuanatley niches only have a short expiry date and his type of character he plays so well has a material limit really - but honestly, what a fantastic contributor to the 80s

The show you are thinking of was called "Full House"..

My fav Lori Loughlin flick is definitely "RAD", but check out "Secret Admirer", "The Night Before", "The New Kids", and "Back To the Beach" for a totally Loughlin weekend.
