Love her husky voice.
kate should do a book. She is needed.
Now I remember why she was my favorite Angel. So real and down to earth. Imagine putting flowers on Katherine Hepburn's porch! So sweet!
I know I'm kinda off topic but does anybody know of a good website to stream new series online ?

Hear me out.
Salzburg, 1984. Kate was about to divorce and heartbroken. Bruce’s marriage was in its 7th year and on the rocks. He had a 4 yr old which is, according to my experience, always the most difficult age for their parents, especially when sb needed to stay home and the other one is making a big career. Happens to everyday Joe and his wife too.
So, both are lonely in Salzburg. One is utterly heartbroken, the other one defeated about the state of his marriage. And they got time on their Hands. Lots of time. And no place to go. No scheduled meetings at school or CBS or paying bills or attending production meetings. Just hanging out in beautiful Germany over the summer. They had chemistry from day one but I think that very summer was THEIR summer. They had a fling because they were lonely and liked each other a lot. And probably Kitty and Bruce were on a break at that point. It was probably not even cheating. It was rebound, on both ends. And they knew, that with return to the US, it needed to end. That was in August of 1984. And the Bruce got back to Kitty because Kate made him realize how he needed to fight for his marriage. She encouraged him to go back. And Kitty finally heard him. Bruce got Kitty pregnant around Jan/Feb of 1985, maybe the classic “let’s try it again and to make up, let us have another baby” theme. So they went. And Kate and him were just friends again, in good terms, because the fling was gone, they got that out of their system, but the chemistry was still there.
But then Kate got sick. And got gaslit from her producer to not tell anyone. Not because she wanted to, but was told, the show will be be shut down if CBS knew, her billing Star was potentially deadly ill. So she was threatened and gaslit and told that it is her fault if everyone will lose their job. So she obeyed. Told no one. Not even Bruce, her friend.
And time went on and the producers told lies about her being off screen. He knew sth was up, but she didn’t talk to him. Was too scared. And Bruce drew the wrong conclusion from it. So they relationship got sour and when the show ended, his marriage had failed anyway, even after that make up kiddo and Kate was busy getting healthy again, so it fizzled out.
He gave some really bitter interviews after SMK ended, about her having her way (because she shut him out, so he was hurt and he fueled the “she is hard to work with” narrative), them losing their chemistry during S4 and him losing his marriage because of the shows working hour. And she never replied anywhere. I think it hurt her terribly to hear him say that, so she decided to not get in touch after he was divorced and she was cured.
I don’t think it was the fling that ended that made them go separate ways. I truly think that Kate was pressured by the studio to keep her mouth shut and marching on, suffering all by herself. I mean, it was the 80s, patriarchy in full blown swing and the men in Hollywood dictated everything. I am sure she never Got over this mistreat and felt terrible after S4. And Bruce, at that point, haven’t understood a thing and thought she mistreated HIM, because … men.
Him telling the story that Kate rang him by up around 2009/2011 and him confirming they are on good terms, seems to me that after all these years, she decided to put the record straight. And he was apologizing for being a jerk in 1987’s interviews and also, being a man, not understanding what was really going on and reaching out earlier.
TLDR: I think they truly loved each other, but as friends and for one summer, they got their sexual energy out of their system, but it was not the reason for their friendship to get sour.
Discuss!!!
I love Kate Jackson, beautiful lady, my favorite actress.
Kate is my dream girl😘😘😘
Grande kate idola seca
alcoholic 😂....opps i meant workaholic! LEGEND!
That was a hilarious Freudian slip. Many workaholics are high functioning alcoholics.
🎈
That hair cut tho
The 80s were responsible for some bad hair (perms) and fashion (shoulder pads etc.). It was a terrible time fashion wise. Thank goodness things changed after that. And Kate's hair was back to her beautiful straight hair, too, a few years later.
yep, wasn't feeling the hair.
WTH - the hair!!!? is she wearing a wig or auditionig for Sophie’s Choice part 2?
Bellissimi lee e Amanda sono bravissimi attori kete e Bruce love
The 80s perm messed up her hair so she had to have it cut. I never liked the perms on anyone. So I was glad when Kate went back to her beautiful straight hair a couple years later.
That bozo hairdo has to go.
I love Kate Jackson, but her hairdo here is atrocious.
lol :)
haha yes indeed...
Typical mid eighties style. I agree.
the hairstyle ages her a lot, even though she's young here. what hairstyles can do to you
I kinda like it. :) Plus this interview was done when that hair do was in.
