What Are They Up To? Josh Saviano of The Wonder Years

August 8, 2007

As Paul Pfeiffer on The Wonder Years, Josh Saviano was distinctly known as the lifelong best friend of lead character Kevin Arnold (Fred Savage).  He was Jewish and was allergic to many substances, which occasionally added comic relief to the show.  Despite being a bit geeky, he remained to be a loyal companion and an excellent student.  For the most part, he shared many joyful experiences, as well as heartbreaking moments with Kevin during his teenage years.  In the last episode of the series, it was revealed that he went to pursue law at Harvard, which was a little similar to what happened in the actor's real life.

What Are They Up To? Dan Lauria of The Wonder Years

August 8, 2007

dan lauriaDan Lauria was popularly identified as Jack Arnold on the award-winning series The Wonder Years.  From 1988 to 1993, he portrayed the husband of stay-at-home wife Norma, and father of Karen, Wayne and the lead character Kevin (Fred Savage).  He was the type of father who was sullen but always strived to be responsible and a good provider for his family.  He worked in a middle management position, which he detested, at a large corporation called NORCOM and later quit to start his own furniture business. As a war veteran, his sensitivity towards war issues was often felt on the throughout the show.  Unfortunately, he died two years after the timeline of the show, which was revealed in the final episode of the series.  At present, the 60-year-old Italian-American actor remains active in the film industry with his series of upcoming movies.
