"As though ABC didn't have enough conflict-ridden shows on the air, now Fox News is alleging Grey's Anatomy-type shenanigans behind the scenes of its upcoming estrogencom, In the Motherhood. According to Roger Friedman, the show's problem star is Will & Grace star Megan Mullally, who's loudly voiced criticism about the show's quality and is feuding with costar Cheryl Hines:
Sources say that at a table reading the other day, Mullally pretty much had a meltdown. She didn’t like the script and didn’t mind saying so.
"She was circling other people’s lines and redistributing them to other characters," says a source close to the production.
More importantly, Mullally apparently already doesn’t like Hines, who’s so popular from HBO’s "Curb Your Enthusiasm." Mullally apparently announced at the reading: "There’s no talent here."
If that wasn’t enough, she told Hines: "Nobody watches HBO." "
So playing Karen wasn't much of a stretch I guess.
