Then: Meredith Baxter (Meredith Baxter Birney) as Elyse Keaton in Family Ties, 1982
Who can forget the outspoken matriarch of the Keaton clan? Even as her little birthday boy becomes a man (or at least turns 18), she’s determined to have her say. (If you watch until 2:30, you’ll also see Alex and his prospective Back to the Future pops, Crispin Glover, palling around.) Another fun fact: Meredith was cast as Elyse because the show’s producer, Gary David Goldberg, had a crush on her.
