Eighties fashions aren't the only aspect of the decade making a comeback.
These 20 stars from the era quickly went from ubiquity to obscurity.
And now they're ready to come back.
Even in a youth-dominated business, plenty of celebrities are breaking back into Hollywood 30 years later.
Michael J. Fox and "Cheers" star Shelley Long are returning to their sitcom roots, while Pat Benatar is back on tour.
Even Molly Ringwald is booked with jobs these days.
Check out what these celebrities and more are doing, and what they look like today.
Michael J. Fox won hearts in the Back to the Future films.
The actor also starred in the hit 1980s sitcom "Family Ties." He was on the successful sitcom "Spin City" about a decade ago but his career has slowed since then.
Today, Fox is set to star in an NBC sitcom.
It's loosely based on his own life as a father battling Parkinson's, which he has been battling in real life since 1991. Four major networks fought for the show before it landed at NBC.
Fox has been married to his wife Tracy since 1988 and they have four children.
Lisa Whelchel was in the 1980's hit "Facts of Life."
She played spoiled rich girl Blair. After the show ended in 1988, she didn't make a television appearance until a reunion in 2001.
