During a down moment on the New York set of Ugly Betty, American Ferrera asked her co-star Judith Light a question that had been bugging her for years. Specifically, she wanted to know who actually was the boss on the popular 1980s series of the same name. Light fondly reflected on the series and explained to Ferrera that the title was a merely a metaphor for how we're the boss of our own destiny and fate. Ferrera nodded and asked Light if her character on the show was the boss of the character Tony Micelli. Light said, "Oh yeah. I mean, she signed his paycheck. She was the boss."

Brentwood was nearly the scene for a Facts Of Life reunion on Wednesday afternoon. Photographers told Mindy Cohn, who played Natalie Green on the beloved 1980s sitcom, that her co-star Kim Fields was at a coffee shop across the street. Cohn was surprised to hear that her TV best friend was just a few feet away and raced over to catch up on old times. Yet by the time Cohn crossed the street, her old school BFF had left. Cohn seemed disappointed that she missed having a potential reunion, but said, "We'll probably do one in another couple of years when we're all sort of low on money."
