I’m home.’ This is where I belong. This feels right. I guess I’m an actor. Whether it’s ‘man with potatoes’ or Oskar Schindler, this tour-de-force part, or contributing borderline background. This just makes me happy.” In recent years, Stoyanov has appeared on Justified, Gotham, and The Blacklist, and in recurring roles on Kingdom and Billions. Blossom cast members have gotten together for officially a couple of times in recent years. In 2017, Stoyanov, Bialik, Lawrence, von Oÿ, and Ted Wass participated in a reunion for Entertainment Weekly and opened up about their experience making the show. “It was really a fun, fun role to do, and definitely out of the norm at the time,” Stoyanov said of playing Tony. “I was so happy that I was even going be in consideration for this part, because it was so different from everything else I was seeing. I was blown away to end up doing it.” Then, in 2022, Stoyanov, Bialik, Lawrence, and von Oÿ reunited again when they appeared on Bialik’s current sitcom, Call Me Kat. During the episode, the Stoyanov, Lawrence, and von Oÿ play themselves with Bialik’s character, Kat, telling them they were the stars of one of her favorite shows. They also joke about Kat remembering von Oÿ and Lawrence, but not Stoyanov. “Oh, no, I get it,” he says. “She talked real fast and he was an idiot. I was just a boring old heartfelt three-dimensional character. Whatever.”
