Norman Lear: 100 Years -- why did Lisa Whelchel not sit with her co-stars?

[Dr. Thong]

I was watching the Norman Lear: 100 Years Of Music And Laughter special and noticed something odd: Lisa Whelchel sat at one table, while Mindy Cohn and Nancy McKeon sat at another.

Kim Fields was there also, but I couldn't tell who she was sitting with.

And there was a brief interview clip where Mindy Cohn, Kim Fields, and Nancy McKeon were together, but no Lisa Whelchel.

Is there some kind of feud going on or was there fallout between them?

That remains a mystery. Many people wondered. Especially since Lisa loves being an unofficial spokeswoman for the show.

Hopefully we'll find out why.

I didn't see the show. Was there enough room for all 4 to sit comfortably?

Sometimes it's the logistics of the set up to spread out the celebrities.

Is it too soon to want to speculate that there's some feud between Lisa and Nancy? Nancy McKeon was conspicuously absent from last December's Live in Front of a Studio Audience... special on ABC. Lisa was of course, there along with Mindy and Kim. I think the official reason is that Nancy lives in Austin, Texas and was too busy looking after her family to bother showing up.

But again, it's now easy to theorized that Nancy figured that if Lisa is going to be there, then she wasn't going to be there. But again, this is all speculation on my part.

If you saw Nancy M.'s Instagram account during that time, there were hints why she wasn't there for the Live in Front of a Studio Audience. It was around the two year anniversary of her brother's passing and she seemed to be in a deep funk at that time.

But if you look at Nancy M's Instagram account, she has birthday wishes this year for Charlotte, Kim, and Mindy, but none for Lisa whose birthday falls in the same block as the others. Nancy M. did wish Lisa a Happy Birthday last year.

It would appear there's a feud between Lisa and Nancy.

The question now is: Why?

Even Blair and Jo got along better!

I think because Lisa was there with her husband. She posted on mindys Instagram(a photo of mindy, Kim and Nancy) that she was disappointed she didn’t get to see mindy before she left. I don’t think there’s any drama.

Lisa was at the table behind them. She saw them, but evidently didn't speak to them.

I like to think it's just coincidence. People like to look for things that aren't necessarily there, but the girls (ladies) were mostly split up. Kim Fields was seated at a different table too. As for the interview segment (too bad Mindy didn't get a word in), maybe they taped it before Lisa got there.

Lisa "liked" Nancy's Instagram beauty swag post from 2 days ago, so I think everything's fine and it was just circumstantial speculation.

Well i remember seeing Lisa post a birthday wish for Nancy this past April saying something like happy birthday to my friend for life and Nancy responded saying something like my privilege kind friend. But i have noticed the last 3 months when Lisa has posted something on instagram none of the other facts of life girls have liked it and usually they like her posts. So I have no clue what is going on cause Lisa still likes there IG posts.

Nancy M. didn't wish Lisa a Happy Birthday while she wished Charlotte, Kim, and Mindy Happy Birthdays.

If I recall none of them posted anything for Lisa’s birthday doesn’t mean that they didn’t text her cause I remember them saying in an interview once that they group text each other a lot.
