Starring Judd Nelson, Barbara Barrie, David Strickland, Brooke Shields, Kathy Griffin, and Nestor Carbonell (pictured above from left to right), the series followed the ups and downs of working with your brother’s former fiance plus all the other struggles — some hilarious and some unfortunate — that come with everyday life. 

Unfortunately, the cast of ‘Suddenly Susan’ endured a real-life struggle together after David, who played Todd Stities, died from suicide in 1999.

‘There’s rarely a minute in any day that I don’t have [David] in my mind,’ Brooke said at the time, per the ‘New York Post’.

Following the show, the cast went on to have incredible careers in film and TV production.
