When everything seems to be falling apart, there is always one person you can go to for damage control. On The Wonder Years Alley Mills was Norma, who helped her son Kevin through scraped knees and broken hearts. Susan Ruttan played Roxanne Melman, Arnie Becker's indispensable paralegal on LA Law. And Nia Vardalos held the family and the family business together as Toula Portokalos in My Big Fat Greek Wedding.
