Mean Girls Star Lindsay Lohan’s Former Co-star Wishes She Had Sued the Actress for Bailing Out of a 2000 Sitcom That Failed Miserably

Bette Midler talks about how Lindsay Lohan’s exit became somewhat of an issue for Bette.

Lindsay Lohan has continued to stay in the spotlight thanks to her acting career, which kickstarted as a child actress in the late 1990s and early 2000s. Following her successful career as a child actress, she became a teen icon with her work in Mean Girls. After pursuing her music career for a while, she continued to stay in the limelight, be it for personal reasons or her comeback attempts.

Little did she know that jumping from one project to another would affect Bette Midler’s sitcom. The latter recently revealed that her sitcom, Bette, couldn’t really hit the mark, and she believes that the former’s exit contributed to its lack of success

In a recent appearance on David Duchovny’s Fail Better podcast, Bette Midler reflected on a series of mistakes that affected the 2000 sitcom, Bette from becoming a success.

Among the mistakes, she pointed out that Lindsay Lohan‘s exit after starring in the pilot episode played a significant role in the outcome.

Lohan’s exit catapulted her to face the reality, which she revealed was chaotic. She added,

Lohan’s exit not only pushed the lead star into a corner, but her influence also would have affected its popularity. At the time, the Mean Girls star was newly enjoying The Parent Trap‘s success.

Recalling her stint, she called it “A big, big, big mistake” for several reasons. But other than subtly deciding to sue Lohan, she believes that she was at fault for not understanding what it meant to make a sitcom.

She revealed that she was “kicked to the curb immediately” with no one by her side to guide her in making a project in the Television world.

She was executive producer of Bette which was canceled after one season. Midler played a version of herself on the show, with Kevin Dunn playing her husband. The show consisted of 18 episodes, two of which went unaired with the show getting canceled after one season.
