The Facts of Life star Mindy Cohn recently revealed details about a potential reboot of the beloved '80s sitcom that was allegedly sabotaged by a cast member. During an appearance on SiriusXM's Jeff Lewis Live, Cohn shared that the idea for the reboot stemmed from the show's participation in the Norman Lear and Jimmy Kimmel series Live in Front of a Studio Audience. The positive response to the special, which aired in December 2021, sparked interest in reviving the series.
Original cast members of The Facts of Life, including Cohn, engaged in discussions about the reboot during the COVID-19 pandemic. However, Cohn disclosed that one castmate attempted to secure a separate deal for a spinoff, causing a rift among the team. The betrayal led to a falling out and ultimately resulted in the demise of the potential reboot.
