Actress Liz Sheridan was part of the casts of some iconic TV shows, including Seinfeld and ALF, and delivered plenty of laughs over the long years of her career. Sadly, the actress has now passed away. She was 93 years old at the time of her death.
The actress died overnight in her sleep due to natural causes, according her friend and representative, via Deadline. News of her death has become public just five days after her birthday on April 20. TMZ reports that she is survived by her son and her daughter-in-law, following the passing of her husband in 2003.
Liz Sheridan had a long and prolific career on the small screen, with her earliest TV credit going back to an episode of Kojak in 1977. She went on to have many guest-starring roles, including in some iconic shows like the original One Day at a Time (with a premise that was revived in 2017 and then saved in 2019), St. Elsewhere, Bob Newhart’s Newhart (known for its huge twist ending), and Moonlighting.
She later appeared in multiple episodes of Santa Barbara and The A-Team (although as different characters over two episodes) before landing her role in ALF, where she played nosy neighbor Raquel Ochmonek for more than 30 episodes between 1986 and 1990. Liz Sheridan is undoubtedly best remembered, however, for her role as Helen Seinfeld, a.k.a. Jerry Seinfeld’s mom on Seinfeld.
Sheridan appeared in more than 20 episodes of Seinfeld, ranging from early in the first season in 1990 to an appearance in the infamous series finale in 1998. She often appeared opposite Barney Martin as the father of the fictionalized version of Jerry Seinfeld. Known for being protective of her son as well as delivering laughs, she was a memorable part of a show that has gone on to become an unforgettable part of pop culture in the ’90s and beyond.
