Courtney Thorne-Smith as Lyndsey McElroy
A slightly masculine girl who enjoys drinking beer, Lyndsey kept popping up on the show as Alan’s on-and-off lover. Lyndsay is Jake’s best friend, Eldridge’s mom. Their relationship started a secret from the kids, which they figured out quickly. Constantly deliriously drunk, her drinking problem became apparent when she was caught vomiting all over the interior of Walden’s private jet. Lyndsay showed up a lot throughout the show and dated Alan on and off for a while.
