Cool

Frankly I prefered Lauren, physically she was good for Michael J. Fox. Buy with Tracy Pollan it was different... They seemed to be in love in real life so there was a sort of alchemy between them... It was hot when both Michael and Tracy were on screen. And the "At this moment" scene... BEAUTIFUL!!!!

Ellen, for me. Pollan just came off a little sweeter, plus a little better looking. And her chemistry with Fox seemed more natural. Though she was dating Kevin Bacon at the time and he was with Nancy McKeon, Fox did mention in an interview that he was attracted to her. But because of those reasons he didn't make any moves.

Chrissy: Well...see Mrs. Roper, the world is made up of two kinds of people, twos and ones. Sometimes two ones become a two and other times one of the ones of the two gets tired of being a two and wants to become a one again, not that the other one of the two isn't a nice one, it's just that... two twos can't be a two without the one.

Ellen, hands down. She's a wonderful contrast and foil for Alex, and there's some great verbal sparring between them. And Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan's real-life chemistry came through on the screen.

I thought Lauren was pretty bland, and that there wasn't much of a spark there. I also think Courteney Cox is really stiff as an actress, even more so back when she was on "Family Ties".

I Would Have To Say "Ellen". She Was Better Suited For "Alex P. Keaton"!!! She Was Sweet Nice And Caring!!! And They Do Make A Great Couple In Real Life! At The Time Of The Show "Tracy Pollan" Was Living And Involved With "Kevin Bacon" And "Michael J. Fox" Was Dating "Nancy McKeon"!!! But About A Year After The Show Ended, Michael J. Fox Heard That Tracy Pollan And Kevin Bacon Broke Up, So He Gave Her A Call And Proposed 7 Months Later!!! They Got Married In 1988!!! They Have 4 Children, Sam (12) Aquinnah And Scyuler (6) And There New Daughter "Esme Annabelle Fox"!!! Who Was Just Born On November 3rd, 2001!

I think Michael J. Fox's real wife is the best out of the two actresses. I do like Courtney Cox, and I have nothing against Courtney Cox.

My name is: Mindy Roberts

My birthplace is: Houston, Texas

Well, I like Courtney Cox as an actress too- but I think that Tracy Pollan/Ellen is a better match for MJF.

I like both Ellen and Lauren, but I think I like Ellen just a little more b/c that was Micheal J. Fox's real-life wife. (Say that three times fast!! LOL)
