  • If you watched a ton of TV in the late-'90s, you know about FOX's legal comedy-drama Ally McBeal. Even if you weren't a regular viewer, you no doubt heard the buzz about it, or saw the Time magazine cover, or marveled at that CGI dancing baby. The show was everywhere, and that was largely due to the charisma of lead actress Calista Flockhart. Since Ally McBeal went off the air in 2002, Flockhart has stayed fairly busy, but she's also made it a point to focus more on her son, Liam, and her Hollywood icon hubbie, Harrison Ford. Wondering what really happened to Calista Flockhart since the Ally McBeal days? Here's a rundown.

      Actually not. Stars, living constantly in the limelight and constantly hounded by the media ("X & Y seen having lunch, must be having an affair! X insists they have been friends for decades and Y's wife was unavailable for comment") are likely to divorce over time. But the average working actor--whose face is familiar but whose name evades you--is no more likely to divorce than you are.

    I don't really watch such shows but for those few episodes and glimpses I did, I kinda felt a lot of sadness and loneliness. Vonda Shepard's soulful renditions of those lovelorn tunes added much fuel to those vibes. You belong to me. Baby don't you break my heart slow. It was special.

    If a character is the most popular woman on television but Belafonte doesn’t think she’s feminist enough or at all, it would seem that most women aren’t much interested in Belafonte’s brand of feminism, which has little to do with what most young women yearn for.

    Rather see her in a great new role, entirely. She needs to be given some good material that lends to her chops and where she is now as an actress. Not 20 years ago. Reboots are rarely good. Ally McBeal was of its time and should remain there. It was great and always will be one of my best shows. Calista would be great in a role we have never seen her play like a gritty drama, thriller or horror series.
    She's great. Looking forward should be the thing.

      I was too young to catch Ally Mcbeal but I heard it was amazing. I love brothers and sisters though it's my favorite show of all time. I was old enough to watch it when it first aired and now I'm binge watching it again years later on my Smart TV. I would like to see her in another role kind of like brothers and sisters she's really good at emotional and emotions.

    She was not the only actress to play a character of strength, feminism, meeting others on her own terms. Many others just as good if not better. Anyone remember Candice Bergen as Murphy Brown, Rosanne Barr as Rosanne Connor, even Mary Tyler Moore who led the way! Cagney and Lacey's Tyne Daly, and The characters that Tina Fey and Amy Pohler played on their shows as well as SNL, ETC>< ETC.. Etc.
