Bette Midler Regrets ‘Bette’ Sitcom And Not Suing Lindsay Lohan

Buy Me A Coffee

Picture this: Bette Midler, the queen of sass and sassitude, taking a trip down memory lane to revisit her stint in the early 2000s sitcom “Bette.” Spoiler alert: It’s a comedy goldmine!

At a ripe age of 78, Bette spills the beans on her rollercoaster ride with the one-season wonder that was “Bette.” And let’s just say, she’s not holding back on the laughs or the regrets.

In a hilarious rendezvous on David Duchovny’s Fail Better podcast, Bette couldn’t help but poke fun at the sitcom’s oh-so-generic name. “Bette? Really? Could it scream ‘cookie-cutter’ any louder?” she quipped, setting the tone for the roast of the century.

Bette dives into the drama faster than you can say “lights, camera, action!” Turns out, she had big dreams of ruling the roost as both star and executive producer. Unfortunately, fate had other plans, and those plans included a certain teen sensation named Lindsay Lohan.

Cue the chaos! Lindsay, fresh off the heels of her teenage reign, was cast as Bette’s on-screen offspring. Yet, faster than you can say “Hollywood hustle,” Lindsay decided she’d rather chase other fish in the sea. Bette was left scratching her head and wondering, “What now?”

In a plot twist worthy of its own sitcom, Bette reveals she had half a mind to sue Lindsay for breach of contract. But alas, navigating the murky waters of Hollywood had her feeling more lost than a GPS in a corn maze. “I couldn’t find the writer’s room if it had a neon sign,” she laments, painting a picture of sitcom pandemonium.

As if Lindsay’s disappearing act wasn’t enough, Bette confesses that the show’s demise came as a welcome relief. “Cancelation? Oh, sweet relief!” she exclaims, waving goodbye to the sinking ship that was “Bette” with a mix of glee and liberation.

But wait, there’s a plot twist worthy of a season finale! Lindsay herself resurfaces on social media, sharing a throwback snapshot from their sitcom days. Talk about a blast from the past! Could this be a truce in the making, or just another episode in the sitcom saga of Bette and Lindsay?

As for “Bette,” it may be gone, but its legacy lives on in the annals of sitcom history.
