As long as they don’t try to make it a cringy feminist show like the Charmed reboot. Ally McBeal wasn’t written as a feminist show. It wasn’t Buffy the Vampire Slayer or Veronica Mars, and it never pretended to be one like the original Charmed did. Ally was a lawyer looking to complete her dream life. Either keep it like that or refrain from ruining a classic.
She seems to be one of the few performers who is completely in control of her own life, and the entertainment industry naturally doesn't like that a bit. Good for her.
Ally McBeal was an incredible series, ahead of it's time. It was the first time I'd seen an American series using plenty of sarcasm, irony and wit. Some of the relationship conversations between John and Ally were memorable for sure. It certainly helped me understand love and life a little better when I was younger.
@@markcadieux3445 ha ha. so true. all those caring democrats....like michelle williams who thanked her ability to have an abortion so she could 'focus on the film''
I love this actress. She made me smile and cry so much in ally MC beal and brothers and sisters. Two great shows. I'd like to see her on screen so much. She's so talented.
I met her working as a PA on a small film called Jane Doe. I found her to be extremely sensitive and intelligent. She seems to have been pigeonholed by roles like Ally McBeal. I noticed she had a certain dark side with a lot of depth, and I remember hearing of people walking out on a play she did where she played a villain and the audience was angry to see Ally McBeal that way. She’s not Ally McBeal and audiences should be more open to seeing her playing different types of people.
This is the problem with child star they grow up right before our eyes and ppl for get that they're human and become adult s don't expect them to be their character
The title makes it sound like no one will hire her. Seems like she’s chosen to not act and being married to Harrison Ford, I doubt she’s in need of a job.
She doesn’t need to work, she has the money to stay at home or do what ever she wants. And I will not like a reboot of ally Macbeal because it was so perfect that it doesn’t need to be re do it.
No one could surpass David E. Kelley or Calista Flockhart as Ally McBeal. It still remains one of my favorite shows of all time which I watch in reruns many times. I think Calista is a wonderful actress and deserves time apart with her family. The media is hard on everyone, it is who they are. Papparazzi loves to destroy. They are hideous but her fans know this.
I waited on her and Ford several years back. The nicest celeb I've waited on. She was all thank you, please and smiles, and looked you in the eye when speaking to you.
Pourquoi les gens et les médias ne peuvent-ils pas juste la laisser vivre sa vie sans jugement ? Je l'aime énormément et elle me manque, mais je respecte ses choix, justement parce que je l'apprécie beaucoup. Je lui souhaite juste d'être heureuse dans sa vie et évidemment je garde l'espoir de la revoir très vite dans un rôle, peut importe lequel... juste la revoir... Why can’t people and the media just let her live her life without judgment? I love her very much and I miss her, but I respect her choices, precisely because I appreciate her very much. I just wish her to be happy in her life and obviously I keep the hope of seeing her again very soon in a role, no matter which one... just to see her again... (traduction google sorry)
She was excellent in the film Jane Doe, and is a GREAT actress. She's in the same enviable position as Linda Hamilton, she doesn't need to work and can do as she pleases
Calista is a prime example of enjoying Hollywood as a HOBBY and not a job. Calista doesn’t have to work. Calista could be like some of these other wives and try to get a reality show. I am Team Calista 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾.
@@markcadieux3445 What a romantic assessment. Ya know, it could be that they just wanted to be with each other, no matter of wealth. I doubt she was needing much financial assistance anyway.
First time I ever seen her work was on an afternoon special. They used to do 30 min mini- movies about serious topics. Her’s was on anorexia. It was shocking at the time because I was so young. In the special, she wasn’t happy with her weight even though she was way too skinny. Her character would run all the time. She would eat with her family then go to her room, vomit in jars and hide them in her closet. She would empty them after awhile but her mom found her stash of jars one day and she was sent to the hospital for rehab.
amerocker if you’ve ever seen people who exercise ( especially run) and eat real heathy clean raw foods they look like they have anorexia but they are very healthy. They eat more than a lot of others that eat junk food. They all have great metabolisms. I’m not sure she suffers from it; she might just be the above person who is healthy. We’re so used to seeing overweight people, it’s strange to see someone that looks like her.
I think Ally McBeal was the perfect "vehicle" for her quirky acting abilities. She never was able to match her success in that show, even though she was a part of several other series.
I'm 19 years younger than my headband, so I can relate if she chose to spend 24/7 devoted to the great Harrison Ford! Kudos to the two top Love Birds in America! There could never be a better ALLY McBEAL show though. I'm so content with Re-Watch, and not a Re-Boot!
These videos are odd as, for example, Calista Flockhart's most recent acting job only ended two years ago. Definitely not long enough ago to say "Hollywood won't." All these Why Hollywood Won't Cast "insert name" Anymore videos are in this same vein of problems. Another problem these videos have is that "insert name" a lot of times are working, just not in anything big movie/advertised/blockbuster worthy. Some actors today don't work often but live off the fame the press give them and it makes people not realize they aren't working. That seems another issue.
oh boy, so because she doesn't indulge in gossip, she's cold and reserved...but if its a guy he's cool and mysterious. Secondly, Ally may not have been traditionally feministic but isn't the whole point of feminism to be who you want without judgment including a neurotic guy crazy girl. Ally struck a chord with so many women because she was who she was and didn't apologize for it. And lets talk about that scene when she comes home to the snowman. My goodness - and this is where 12 year old me fell in love with RDJ
exactly, but that was feminism back then and in the 00s. You had to be like a guy to be a feminist. Ally represented women who wanted to find love and be in love.
She's so funny in the Ally Mcbeal. Love that show especially when she Shrinks. & then I recognised her in Supergirl... It's ally Mcbeal cool.👍👍 Wish her back.
She's Good, doesn't need the drama & BS of being famous, and is busy with Her husband & son - She never wanted to be famous, yet did and has made enough money from being remembered by us, worthy fans :)
She and Harrison Ford are my favorite actors. I hate it when people talk about them because of their age difference. This is their business. They are a beautiful couple and I love them. I do not think people should bother them about this. In this country strange people discriminate others at work, on the street, at school, in parks, everywhere based on people's age differences. They do it even to our president which is very bad. That is not a sign of being a good American. It is nobody's business because age is only a number. What matters in a couple is what is inside someone's heart. So when it comes to couples who have an age difference people people should cherish them not criticize them.
Alley mc beall was one of my favs, liked the music & dancing. It was a diff kind of show at first & towards the end of 2nd season, its like the writers gave up. Show was funny also. She was good in brothers & sisters. And she seems to have really good on screen chemistry with different guys/ men. She & Robert downey jr. Bon Jovi & she and Courtney thorn smith. There fights were funny.
i just think she’s too amazing , everyone already knows it but i miss her :( i think her best role was cat grant , she was irreplaceable and UNFORGETABLE. i miss her so much on the show.
This headline is horrible. The content of this story is all about how she doesn't WANT to work, not "why Hollywood won't hire her." The headline should be changed.
Chemistry is too great to mess with. Very original material. I just discovered the show over a week ago and I just finished the first season. You’d never get the original characters back, they’re not all available and some humans don’t age well. Add the fact that it’s 2023 and political correctness would ruin most of the dialogue. I was aware of the show when it came out but I think it just wasn’t timed right for life at the time. The writer is probably not available either. Married to Michelle pfeiffer.
Would you want to see an Ally McBeal reboot?

Ally McVeal? Oh hells no.
She seems to be one of the few performers who is completely in control of her own life, and the entertainment industry naturally doesn't like that a bit. Good for her.
Yeah, she's good!
She has money. It’s ok to retire young. Good for her.
And she with Harrison Ford so plenty dosh
she has money due to her husband. um, like 99.9999% of american women.
Her husband has even more money so she can make one movie every 20 years and still live posh.

Didn't she adopt kids?
Yes, that was misleading. She opts not to work in tv or films. Her choice. It seems she's picked on, no matter what she does.
She doesn’t

Please bring Ally McBeal back it was a good show. Very smartly written and acted.

Misleading title. But you realize that, I’m sure...

Such a Fantastic actress! She kicked ass in Ally McBeal! 👏🏻😍

That seems like Calista's real disease, Anorexia Nervosa or Bulimia.

Harrison ford is cancer man and Calista is scorpio woman... soulmate ...wjatever bad Calista,,, harisoon never forget her.
We already know Calista Flockhart is loving up on Harrison Ford. The bigger question should be, what ever happened to Lisa Nicole Carson.
Noxolo Shangase She admitted to having bipolar and took a 10 year hiatus to get herself together
Who is that Lisa Nicole Carson?
She only works if it can be film in California so she can be close to her family everyone knows that.
Well, truth is when you're married to Harrison Ford you really don't need to work. So, there you have it.
Would not count on that marriage. How many times has he been married?
@@jollygolightly6375 he is 78. pretty sure this is the last

And neither are we.
Her plastic surgery was always distractingly bad and her acting is the most obnoxious I’ve ever seen.
What work has she had done?
I reckon Meghan Markles acting is worse ..... just saying!
