Luke Perry & Jason Priestley

THEN: They stole our hearts (and Brenda’s and Kelly’s) as bad boy Dylan McKay and voice of reason Brandon Walsh, respectively, on the hit teen drama Beverly Hills, 90210.

NOW: Luke, 49, who’s a father-of-two, most recently starred in the film Black Beauty. Jason, 46, has appeared in How I Met Your Mother, CSI: Crime Scene Investigation and Hot in Cleveland. The married father-of-two also released his memoir — sort of bashing Tori Spelling for selling his wedding invitation during a garage sale. If he could go back in time, we bet it’d be more like “DON’T let Donna Martin graduate.”

Rider Strong

THEN: Be still our 90s hearts — it’s bad boy bestie Shawn Hunter from Boy Meets World. The leather jackets and his luscious locks were just enough for us in one of the coolest decades of all time.

NOW: The now 35-year-old graduated magna cum laude from Columbia University in 2004 and completed his Master of Fine Arts degree in June 2009 at Bennington College. He began dating actress Alexandra Barreto after they met on set of the 2006 TV series Pepper Dennis and they wed seven years later. And guess what? He reprised his role of Shawn on Girl Meets World — the 2014 TV sequel to BMW. Dreams really do come true, people.

Andrew Keegan

THEN: Camp Nowhere, 10 Things I Hate About You, tons of recurring roles on several TV shows including 7th Heaven and Step by Step — heellllooo? This guy was plastered all over thousands of ‘90s girls’ rooms.

NOW: The 36-year-old appears in the flick Living Among Us, which has yet to be released. Oh, and you may remember that his maybe cult was busted for selling illegal kombucha.

Nate Richert

THEN: He played goofy yet lovable Harvey from 1996-2003 (he disappeared for a bit in season 5) on Sabrina, the Teenage Witch.

NOW: The musician, 37, creates comedy sketches and parodies for his official YouTube channel.

Devon Sawa

THEN: He played Junior Floyd in 1994’s Little Giants and went on to star in hits like Casper and Now and Then. He even starred alongside JTT in 1997’s Wild America. Talk about every ‘90s tween girl’s dream come to life. Let’s not forget 1999’s Final Destination followed by Idle Hands the year after. You’ll also recognize him from Eminem’s “Stan” music video.

NOW: The 37-year-old is happily married and expecting his second child! His latest project was the horror movie, The Exorcism of Molly Hartley.

Jonathan Taylor Thomas

THEN: That hair. Those eyes. The smile. ::sighs:: Along with starring on the successful show Home Improvement, JTT (our stomachs still flutter when we utter those initials) also made a name for himself when he voiced young Simba in 1994’s The Lion King. Let’s not forget, Tom and Huck, Man of the House and Wild America.

NOW: First of all, he’s 34. We feel OLD. As for his career, he ended up going the college route in the 2000s. He studied at Harvard University and St. Andrews University. He graduated from Columbia University in 2010. He also joined forces with his former TV dad, Tim Allen, on Tim’s show Last Man Standing a few times. And he still looks pretty darn cute to us.

Joshua Jackson

THEN: He starred in countless flicks like The Mighty Ducks trilogy (you’re so adorbs, Charlie Conway) and Cruel Intentions, but the role that put him on the map was portraying the amazingly perfect Pacey Witter in Dawson’s Creek. Dawson, who?

NOW: The actor, who starred on the hit Fringe from 2008-2013, is 37 and dating German actress Diane Kruger. The pair have been together since 2006. But in our minds, he and Joey Potter are living a super-happy life in NYC. We refuse to believe anything different. GET OVER IT, DAWSON.

Nick Carter

THEN: This Backstreet Boy’s blonde mushroom haircut and crotch grabbing drove teen girls wild in the 90s! They definitely wanted it that way.

NOW: He’s still with the group, but something major happened in the 35-year-old’s life in 2014: He got married! The singer wed girlfriend Lauren Kitt, and during his recent stint on DWTS, announced they're expecting their first child.

Mark-Paul Gosselaar

THEN: He’s the only reason we got out of our beds on Saturday morning. From 1988-1994, he played troublemaker and ultimate hottie Zack Morris on the Saved by the Bell series. That also includes Good Morning, Miss Bliss, the Saved by the Bell wedding and Hawaii specials and The College Years — which wasn’t as good as the high school years, but it meant more Zack. And more Zack means happy gals everywhere.

NOW: At 41-years-old, he’s been married twice and has four children. From 2011-2014, he starred on TNT’s Franklin & Bash. He can next be seen in the flick Precious Cargo alongside Bruce Willis. TIME OUT. We’re still living in la la land dreaming that he and Kelly Kapowski are shacking up somewhere, still looking beautiful and perfect. And that he’s refused to give in to technology and currently uses the same massive phone he did in high school. TIME IN.

Justin Timberlake

THEN: As if JT needs an introduction! Back then, he made the ladies swoon with his baby blues, ramen-esque hair and his love for bad jean outfits and 70s-inspired looks (here’s the proof) as a member of ‘NSYNC.

NOW: After breaking up with the band and fellow pop star Britney Spears, the now 34-year-old went on to have a very successful solo career — and even became a movie star. He took a break from acting in 2013 when he released his third studio album, The 20/20 Experience — seven years after his last record. Oh, he’s also married to actress Jessica Biel, and they welcomed their first child earlier this year.
