The series’ final season aired in July 1998, and while the characters might be frozen in time thanks to reruns and syndication, the stars that gave them life have moved on to other projects and, naturally, aged.

Created by Chuck Lorre, the famous producer behind “The Big Bang Theory” and “Two and a Half Men,” “Cybill” aired for only four seasons between 1995 and 1998, but it made a lasting impact among sitcom fans.

The talented members of the series’ ensemble cast delivered great performances that made the story of this middle-aged TV actress all the more relatable and enjoyable. This is what they have been doing since the show ended.

CYBILL SHEPHERD

The 69-year-old actress played Cybill Sheridan, a twice-divorced struggling actress that tries to make it in the industry despite Hollywood’s age bias and has many ups and downs on her way.
