Fox News
Lisa Whelchel, who starred as Blair Warner in the hit '80s sitcom, "The Facts of Life," explained to Closer Weekly why plans for a reboot fell apart.
"We were all very, very disappointed that it didn’t work," the 61-year-old, who played Blair Warner, told the outlet. Stephanie Nolasco covers entertainment at Foxnews.com.
"We’d been trying to find a way to work together in some capacity for probably the last 10 years," Whelchel explained. "So, when it looked like this was going to happen, we were all really excited. The contracts were signed and then the writers’ strike happened, the actors’ strike happened, and then, unfortunately, Pa [Charlotte Rae] and Norman Lear passed. After that, it just kind of dissolved."
