WHERE ARE THEY NOW: The cast of 'Growing Pains' 37 years later

Although Carol was super-smart, she often wanted to be seen as cute, not brainy.

Carol was originally the middle child and the only girl in the Seaver family, but in season four, Carol and her brothers got a new Seaver sister, Chrissy.

Gold, 53, hasn't acted since she was in the 2016 film "All Hallow's Eve." Prior to that she appeared in shows like "Face of Evil" and "Touched by an Angel." She's also appeared in many TV movies, and most recently, won a '90s-themed season of "Worst Cooks in America."

In 2003, she co-authored a memoir, "Room to Grow: An Appetite for Life."

As her children grew, she shifted her focus towards being an accomplished journalist — that's why her husband opted to work from home, so she could work in the field as a reporter.

Recently, Kerns, 69, has directed episodes of shows such as "High School Musical: The Musical: The Series," "Jane the Virgin," "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, "ER," and "A Million Little Things," in addition to "The Goldbergs" and "This Is Us."

Kerns also acted steadily throughout the '90s after the end of "Growing Pains." On the big screen, she might be most notable for her role in "Knocked Up."

Mike was your typical teenage boy. He loved chasing girls, hanging out with friends, and, because of his cunning wit, often found himself dodging trouble. But at the end of the day, Mike always made sure to be there for his friends and family.

Cameron, 51, is also still acting, and will be starring in the 2022 film "Lifemark." Just recently, he made headlines after he called out Hollywood for its "cowardice" after not getting support for the upcoming pro-life film.

He has also authored many books over the years, and is married to actress Chelsea Noble. They share six children. Noble played Kate, Cameron's on-screen sweetheart in "Growing Pains." His sister, Candace Cameron Bure, is also a child star — she's best known for playing DJ Tanner on "Full House."

Cameron is also well-known for starring in the Christian movie series "Left Behind."

Mike befriended Luke after he noticed the similarities between them, and saw his potential.

After learning about Luke's unstable home life, Mike became his mentor and integrated him into the Seaver family.

DiCaprio, 47, will collaborate with the iconic director Martin Scorsese once again for the Apple TV+ movie "Killers of the Flower Moon" in 2023.

In 2021, DiCaprio acted in the satirical apocalyptic Netflix film "Don't Look Up" as the high-strung Dr. Randall Mindy, starring alongside fellow legends like Meryl Streep and Cate Blanchett.

As well as being a highly decorated actor, DiCaprio is also a serious climate change activist. He became the United Nations Messenger of Peace for Climate in 2014.

At this time, he serves on the board of several environmental organizations, including WWF, the Natural Resources Defense Council, and the International Fund for Animal Welfare.

But DiCaprio is mainly in the news now for his recent break-up with Camila Morrone and his alleged new relationship with Gigi Hadid.

Initially, Ben was the baby of the family, until Chrissy was born in season four.

In the beginning, Ben often felt invisible since he was the youngest. He would sometimes act out when he felt unseen as a way to get attention — and as he grew up, Ben became more and more like his trouble-making older brother Mike.

Miller, 45, has recently opened up about his former alcohol addiction. He revealed to Fox News in August 2022 that at his lowest point, he got a DUI after drinking a "half pint of vodka."

Miller has been sober for seven years, and now he shares his story in an effort to help others.

On the acting front, Miller has acted sporadically over the years, most recently appearing in "True to the Game 3" in 2021.

At the time of Chrissy's birth, she was played by an uncredited set of twins. By her toddler stage in season five, she was played by twins Kelsey and Kirsten Dohring. For the last two seasons of the show, Chrissy was aged up and was played by Johnson.

As played by Johnson, Chrissy was the adorable little sister who managed to always get her way.

Johnson, 39, is best-known to many people as the voice behind Ellie in the hit video game series "The Last of Us." She also provides motion-capture for the character. Her performance has earned her two BAFTA Awards.

As a nod to her importance in the games, Johnson will also appear in the upcoming HBO Max TV adaptation in an undisclosed role.

Before that, Johnson was featured in many long-standing television series, including "Teen Titans Go!," "Blindspot," and "Critical Role," which is a web-series that shows professional voice actors playing Dungeons & Dragons.

In "The Avengers," Johnson plays a waitress who appears to bond with Captain America. Many of her scenes were cut from the theatrical version of the movie, but she still pops up throughout the final battle.

Dr. Weaver was the ideal father figure and a very supportive husband — when his wife, Maggie, decided to go back to work, he was able to move his psychiatry practice into their house so he could work from home and keep an eye on the kids.

Prior to his death, Thicke had cemented himself as one of the most iconic figures in sitcom history. In addition to "Growing Pains," Thicke appeared on "Married... with Children," "My Wife and Kids," "Joey," "How I Met Your Mother," and "Fuller House." He also played himself on the first episode of "This Is Us."

Not only was he an actor, he also was a successful theme song composer. He wrote the theme songs for "Diff'rent Strokes," "The Facts of Life," and "Wheel of Fortune," among others.

Thicke also co-created and headlined in the mockumentary reality TV series "Unusually Thicke" from 2014 to 2015.

His son is Robin Thicke, most notably the singer of "Blurred Lines" and a panelist on "The Masked Singer."
