Daniella Deutscher

As Hang Time hottie Julie Connor, Deutscher was the talented transfer student who got to prove herself as the only lady on the boys basketball team. Fun fact: In real life, she later married Hang Time costar Jay Hernandez. Too. Cute.

Irene Ng

On The Mystery Files of Shelby Woo, she played a kid detective, which is like, every young person's dream. Plus, her denim overalls game was on point.

Christina Ricci

Let's take a moment to recognize how much Christina Ricci crushed the '90s, from Sleepy Hollow to The Addams Family and Casper. She's since transitioned from child to adult star in the entertainment biz, but it was her Now and Then role Roberta, the tomboy having trouble coping with her family's loss, that spoke to us the most.

Jewel Staite

Space Cases only ran for two seasons on Nickelodeon but that was enough time for us to be crazy jealous over this girl (Catalina) from Saturn's gorgeous rainbow hair. Plus, she was a badass engineer who could produce sonic screams, which is awesome.

Marla Sokoloff

Stephanie's BFF on Full House with a bit of a bad girl vibe, Gia was the chick who could introduce you to your first make-out party. (And we so badly wanted to get invited to one.)

Gina Gershon

Sorry, Elizabeth Berkley a.k.a. Nomi Malone. The flawless Gina Gershon (as Cristal Connors) stole the show for us in Showgirls. She was sexy, sassy, and we loved her for it.

Tia Carrere

Two words for Tia Carrere in Wayne's World: Hot. Damn.

Heather Graham

The gorgeous Heather Graham was a '90s goddess, and her turn in Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me made that movie our favorite in the series.

Joey Lauren Adams

We were majorly crushing on Joey Lauren Adams in Chasing Amy. This movie was nearly two hours of insane sexual energy.

Larisa Oleynik

On The Secret World of Alex Mack, Oleynik came off as a normal teen, just like us. A normal teen with superpower puddle person abilities. Anyway, we could always identify with what she was going through, and girl knew how to pull off a backwards ball cap better than anyone.

Tatyana Ali

Ashley Banks may have been the most underrated character on The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air. She became a one-hit wonder and a fashion model during the course of the show. #GOALS.

Bridget Fonda

The now-retired actress slayed this decade; she appeared in more than 20 films in the 1990s. From Single White Female to Jackie Brown, we couldn't get enough of watching the beautiful Bridget Fonda on the big screen.

Who didn't run around with a notebook, pretending to be Harriet the Spy?

Christine Lakin

Alicia 'Al' Lambert from Step by Step was the tomboy daughter on who didn't hold back on how she felt about new siblings Dana, Karen, and Mark.
