Kimberly Williams-Paisley (Gretchen)
If you recall, Lyndsey had a future sister-in-law named Gretchen. The moment she appeared on the show, she had eyes for no one except Alan. Or should we say Jeff Strongman, the alter-ego he used to impress the ladies? What a ridiculous name that we know no one would believe in the real world, but that’s beside the point.
Jeff Strongman gets a tad bit carried away with his faux persona and even claims that Barry, Walden’s friend, is his son. But here’s the kicker: Gretchen was previously married to a guy who lied to her all the time. After finding out the boring truth about Alan, she leaves a Gretchen-shaped hole in the wall.
