During the summer when the gang worked at the Malibu Sands Beach Club she gained popularity among teens as Zack's summer love interest. In 1991 she also starred in the short-lived sitcom, The Man in the Family.

Remini also guest starred in The Commish, where her character was involved in the plot line responsible for "Geoffrey Nauft's" departure from the show. Remini gained some popularity with her role as "Terri Reynolds," on the 1997 NBC comedy series, Fired Up.

She starred for nine years as the main character "Carrie" in the TV sitcom, The King of Queens.
