These TV Shows Had Some Serious Drama Going On Behind The Scenes

When watching a television show, it’s sometimes easy to forget that the actors in the show aren’t the characters they play and that the relationships on screen aren’t real. We like to imagine that actors who work closely with each other behave similarly when the camera isn’t rolling, but that’s far from the truth. From actors assaulting writers to co-stars flat out despising each other, here is the ugliest behind-the-scenes drama from major television shows.

Wait until you read what Alec Baldwin had to say about 30 Rock.

Although fans of the 1980s show Moonlighting loved Bruce Willis and Cybill Shepherd as co-stars, the two can’t say the same for themselves. The actors actually had a rather nasty feud on the set of the show because their personalities just didn’t mesh. It created a hostile work environment for everyone involved in the show, with a lot of tension and blatant disrespect for one another.

The rather unorganized set and hard work required for the show didn’t exactly help to cool the tensions either. In 2005, Shepherd told W that “I remember at one point in the show it had just gotten to the point where we hated each other”. Well, at least it wasn’t obvious to viewers!
