Valerie Bertinelli is making a return to acting—and she’s nervous about it.
Valerie Bertinelli revealed she is making a return to acting—and she’s nervous about it. The television veteran, who has hosted Food Network shows such as Valerie’s Home Cooking in recent years, shared the news of a new TV project in a series of Instagram posts, and she didn’t hold back on her fears.
“I’m so grateful if not a bit anxious,” Bertinelli, 65, wrote on Instagram. “It’s an amazing script written by an amazing writer, and the cast is beyond my wildest dreams.”
“I knew I was feeling a little fear. It’s been a while. I haven’t acted in a single camera for at least 4 years?” the actress added. “But, I didn’t realize how really terrified I was until I looked at these selfies that I took to send to production. I thought I was doing a pretty decent job of walking and talking through the fear and anxiety, but my eyes never ever lie. 😅 You can see the fear and doubt in them.”
Bertinelli promised fans that she will be “fine.” “I’ve been doing this for over 50 years, (it’s like riding a bike, right?) but I just love this script so much and I wanna do it justice,” she explained. “There’s always that thought that I’m gonna be the one that f----s up the whole project, right? So, feel the fear and do it anyway,” she added.

This poor woman is critically insecure.
Just do the Hallmark movie, hon. You’ll be ok.

I wish they'd do a Julie and Barbara reunion movie. Michael Lembeck, Glenn Scarpelli could co star.

R4, I don’t know if you were being serious or not but I actually think that would be a fabulous idea.

What record label is that, DL? It's on the tip of my tongue but senility is setting in.

Thank you, R8! That was fast.

Yes, Atlantic - I have all my ABBA vinyl with that label. I'd recognize it anywhere.
My question: why did the girls' bedroom look like a men's prison cell ? Why was it furnished by Woolworth's ? Didn't M.S. Romano know how to decorate the bedroom for her two daughters in warmer, inviting, more feminine style ? Imagine waking up in that room every morning ? How depressing.

Someone bring this woman a glass of water.
I've never seen someone so thirsty in my life.

She's only been missing from 'acting' for four years, and her PR people are spinning this as its newsworthy ? Seriously ?

Maybe she, Mackenxie Phillips and Glen Scarpelli can get together in a 'Golden Girls' style sitcom. Three 'senior' adults living together in a house in Indianapolis. Maybe Ron Rifkin can join them as Scarpelli's dad who escaped from the nursing home. The hilarity writes itself. It can be titled 'One Golden Day At A Time'.

Is it Valerie's PR firm that keeps posting this stuff here? Because none of us cares about her.

She should be worried about that monster she calls a son. He's on his way to Mama Cass territory.

R19 - her publicist, Jill Fritzo. She's paying her big Van Halen divorce bucks to keep her in the headlines.
I'm sure she got plenty from the divorce and a split of on-going royalties.
I used to like her - everyone did. But this shit has gone bananas.

R23 - Hi Bea! HIC was Val's meal ticket for the 6 seasons the show was on. She was just filler and was always loosing her shit laughing when another cast member (Betty?) said something funny.
BTW, the show is streamed on Pluto TV. Season 3 was the best!
