Mindy Cohn claims ‘greedy’ co-star ruined ‘Facts of Life’ revival: ‘There was drama’
SiriusXM’s “Jeff Lewis Live” in a clip released Wednesday that TV legend Norman Lear approached the foursome about a revival after the success of the 2021 “Live in Front of a Studio Audience” special, where stars like Jennifer Aniston, Gabrielle Union and Kathryn Hahn acted out scenes from “The Facts of Life.”Cohn, Whelchel, 61, and Fields, 55, made cameos in the special. McKeon, 58, did not participate.“He called all of us and said, ‘I knew you guys were still popular, but holy hell,’ ” Cohn recalled Lear — who died at 101 this past December — saying of the special.“We had never really talked about it, but we all started to consider it a little bit,” Cohn said of a reboot.
