Enjoyed the show back in the day.  It was one of the more intelligent shows of that type.  RIP Sada...

Just Meredith Baxter.  She divorced David Birney along time ago, but speaking of him, he was on Family, and is still alive.

On the All-Star Family Feud DVD set, it has celebrity episodes of the Dawson era, and one of them has the cast of Family, but I don't remember if Sada was one of the players on it.

R.I.P. to a great actress.  I thought she was great in the movie 'Pollock'

Yes.  For a while she was actually Meredith Baxter-Bush-Birney-Blodgett.  She had a penchant to marry men whose last name started with a "B".  ;D

But a year or two ago she 'came out' as a gay woman.

I watched that show faithfully as a kid. Seemed really hip at the time, but dated today. The episode that sticks out in my mind was the one where her character was a juror and the brazen writers  plagiarized the script of 12 Angry Men, her being the holdout.

I guess she wanted to be like her co-star Kristy.

I thought she came out of the closet when she was on Empty Nest. However, just doing a research on Google, it could only be just a rumor. Some places says she is-other says that she is not.

She's been fairly MIA since her nervous breakdown... I'd like to see her sometime and hear how she's doing.
