How the Actors of Popular TV Shows Have Changed Since They First Appeared on Screen

It’s always interesting to watch how the characters of our favorite TV series have many seasons of change. We often notice when the actors develop their first wrinkles, how young children become grown-ups and how actors’ overall looks change. The changes become especially evident when we compare what the character looked like at the beginning of the series to the very end.

Bright Side wants to show you what characters from shows that lasted for more than 5 years looked like in the first and final episodes. We also found out what the characters of Stranger Things season 3 will look like — you’ll find them in the bonus!
