JoAnna Garcia – Are You Afraid of the Dark?
Are You Afraid of the Dark, especially its creepy opening credits, can be quite frightening for a children’s show. The Nickelodeon show debuted in 1990 and was relaunched in 1999 and 2019. In the original series, JoAnna Garcia played Sam and was a cast member.
Sam’s stories frequently revolved around love, particularly for her crush Gary. JoAnna Garcia is now married to Nick Swisher, a baseball player. Emerson Jay and Sailor Stevie are the couple’s two daughters.
Jenna von Oÿ – Blossom
Melissa Joan Hart was originally offered the role of Dorothy “Six” Lemeure by the creators of the 1990s sitcom Blossom. When she chose Clarissa Explains It All instead, the job went to actress Jenna von Oÿ. Later, she appeared in The Parkers, a spin-off of Moesha, in 1999.
Jenna von Oÿ married computer data consultant Brad Batcher in 2010, but the couple later divorced. Gray Audrey and Marlowe Monroe are the actress’s two daughters.
