The first time I saw Liz Sheridan on television she scared the shit out of me. I was about nine or ten when Alf came on the air and as the Tanner's nosey neighbour Raquel Ochmonek, Sheridan was a force to be reckoned with.
The past month or so I have been watching the repeats of Seinfeld just before bed. WPIX-TV plays two episodes each night and when Jerry's parents Helen and Morty (Sheridan and Barney Martin) show up you know it will be a great episode.
Sheridan has incredible comic timing and the rhythm, not only achieved, but maintained between actors in The Pen (1991) is television at it's finest.
Sheridan is comic gold and her performance meeting close talker Aaron (Judge Reinhold) in The Raincoats episode is one of my favorite moments of the series.
'How can anyone not like him!'
As an aspiring dancer and actress beginning her career in New York, Sheridan lived with James Dean while trying to make it on The Big White Way. The actress chronicles their relationship, and short engagement, in her book Dizzy & Jimmy.
Sheridan portrays Dean as a sometimes corny romantic, who immediately began talking about being "together forever" and who needed "always to touch and be touched."
