Lisa Loring landed her second big role of he career in the 1980s soap opera "As the World Turns" as the recurring character Cricket Montgomery. The role, which lasted for three years, helped Loring rediscover her love of acting, according to People.
The strong-willed, independent Cricket was a movie production assistant. She had a son named Billy, and she eventually married Ernie Ross, who was played by J. Marshall Watson. Later, the couple had another child named Suzie. Of course, as the show was a soap opera, she also had a few other flirtations (via Soap Central).
After playing Wednesday Addams and Cricket Montgomery, Loring's career began slowing down. She had a series of guest roles in shows, like "Fantasy Island" and "Barnaby Jones," and she appeared in a few dark horror movies that included "Blood Frenzy" (as the hilarious Dory), "Savage Harbor," and "Iced" (via IMDb).
