Elliott and Nancy | “Thirtysomething”

Thirtysomething was one of the most famous TV series of the 1980s. It was released on September 29, 1987, and comprised 85 episodes. This project introduced two of the most amazing actors in Hollywood, Patricia Wettig and Timothy Busfield, whose respective characters were Nancy Weston and Elliot Weston. During the filming of the TV project, the two formed an amazing bond, but it never led to a romantic relationship. This series gave Patricia the prestigious Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Drama Series and its corresponding category at the Golden Globes.

Sadly, the series was axed on May 28, 1991, leaving no dry eyes for the fans after four seasons. Aside from Thirtysomething, Busfield is known for his acting credits in The Skateboard Kid and National Security. Meanwhile, Wettig had notable performances in films like Me and Veronica and Taking Back my Life: The Nancy Ziegenmeyer.
