That 70s Show is one of the most beloved sitcoms of all time. Despite the last episode premiering in 2006, this show remains a popular series among younger audiences. Fortunately, fans will get to see more of their favorite characters in Netflix’s upcoming sequel series, That 90s Show.
Despite the success of That 70s Show back in the early 2000s, things didn’t seem to go well on the set once the show reached its last seasons. Before the last season premiered, it was announced that two of the main stars of the show, Topher Grace and Ashton Kutcher, would be leaving the series.
Moreover, fans were shocked when Christina Moore joined the show to replace another cast member. Although her run on That 70s Show was short, it seems that Moore's career benefited from being on this show.
Who Was Christina Moore Before That 70s Show?
Christina Moore started acting long before she joined the cast of That 70s Show. She started performing at a young age, and by the time she was in high school, she had toured with a children's musical theater troupe throughout the city of Chicago.
Her first professional gig was a performance in Young Abe: the Abraham Lincoln Boyhood Outdoor Musical Drama. Other of her theater roles include productions of Annie, Cinderella, and Big River.
After graduating from the Wesleyan University School of Theatre Arts, Moore decided to move to Los Angeles to pursue an acting career. She landed small roles on several television shows, including The Bad Girl’s Guide, Hyperion Bay, and Unhappily Ever After. She even landed a small guest appearance on Friends.
In 2002, Moore joined the cast of MADtv as a featured performance. She soon gained popularity for her impressions of Christina Aguilera, Shannon Elizabeth, Trista Rehn, and Brittany Murphy. With Josh Meyers, she is one of two former MadTV cast members to join That 70s Show.
The Sad Reason Why Christina Moore Had To Replace Another That 70s Show Actor
Fans were shocked when the role of Laurie Forman was recast for That 70s Show’s sixth season. The role of Eric Foreman’s older sister had been played by Lisa Robin Kelly since the show’s first seasons.
During the show’s third season, her character was written out because Kelly was dealing with some personal issues, but the actress came back for the show’s fifth season.
When season filming for season 6 began, Kelly came back to reprise her role. Ultimately, the actress couldn’t finish filming, so the producers decided to recast her roles and her scenes had to be reshot by Christina Moore due to the casting change.
Kelly turned to alcohol after dealing with the loss of her child. Her struggles with alcohol and substance abuse were what ultimately led to her leaving That 70s Show. This would be her last acting gig prior to her tragic passing in 2013.
After That 70s Show, Christina Moore’s Career Took A Turn For The Best
Although she only played Laurie Foreman for a total of six episodes, starring in That 70s Show helped Christina Moore’s career for the best. Soon after appearing on this show, Moore landed a role in shows such as Seth Green's comedy Without A Paddle and Delta Farce.
According to IMDb, this actress has almost 80 acting credits under her belt. She has appeared on popular shows such as Will and Grace, Two and a Half Men, Anna Farris’ Mom, and True Blood. Although her television resume is way more extensive, she’s also appeared in numerous movies. Her latest projects include two Netflix rom-coms: That’s Amor (2022) and I Believe in Santa (2022).
