This former B list mostly television actress from a hit network show back in the day is in an acting family. She recently had to be paid to attend a reunion photoshoot because she and the cast can’t stand each other. They did a good job of faking it for the television cameras that filmed the reunion though.
Justine Bateman/Family Ties
Can someone please refresh my memory why they suppose to dislike each other?
ReplyDeleteShe had an eatting disorder, then got into drugs during the show. Unlike Growing Pains & Tracy, Family Ties, didn't really support Justine.
ReplyDeleteI never knew there was a rift between Justine Bateman and the rest of the Family Ties cast. What happened? Anyone know the scoop?
ReplyDeleteThere's a lot going on there. The parents were originally supposed to be the focus of the show, but even among the kids, the "Valley Girl" character played by Justine Bateman was intended to be the break-out. Of course, we all know how that played out - it became the Michael J. Fox show, which is fine, because he was great and Justine really has almost zero charisma and talent. But she was bitter about it for years. I don't know anything about drugs and alcohol and a lack of support from the cast, but to the extent that she kept her distance from them to begin with, due to said bitterness, it wouldn't surprise me.
ReplyDeleteSha la la la......
ReplyDeleteHahaa! Nailed it. Heard a few times that she is a first rate k'unt with a huge inflated view of her importance. She also did not treat The Mom/Meredith all that well apparantly.
ReplyDelete100% not true. The entire cast, except Michael who lives locally, was flown in, put up in a hotel and given a modest per diem by the mag. They had multiple meals together and all get along great. She is nice as can be.
ReplyDeleteReally with this Justine Bateman fan here. Honey being put in a hotel and being flown in is what happens in every interview. Having multiple meals together is EXACTLY what's called putting on a scene for the cameras. Wake up.
ReplyDeleteThese newbies coming here... and I mean most of the names commenting everywhere, too. Just lol. People shocked at the Kiefer Sutherland drugs reveal. LOL. I read the first two lines and knew it was him because Enty has spoken multiple times about his drug problems. Which shows how most of the people around here are nothing but newbies who don't know jack and who don't read the site regularly. Complaining about the grammar when they can't write themselves and when the blinds are perfectly understandable, but they get mad because they can't guess it correctly. Just find a new hobby. Those who've actually always read this site know the business, and it's nowhere near some things you newbies have been claiming. Oh well. Comes with moving from a much better old version to a new one, and comes with having open comments. Lose the valuable commenters, get new ones that aren't worth nearly as much.
