Katey Sagal took some time away from this season of The Conners to step into the leading role on Rebel, which followed a fearless blue-collar legal advocate who fights for what she thinks is right, despite not having a law degree.
The character was inspired by the life of Erin Brockovich, who was one of the executive producers, along with Grey’s Anatomy’s Krista Vernoff, who was also the showrunner.
Obviously, it’s never fun to hear that your show has been cut loose after only a little over a month on the air, and Sagal took to Instagram to open up to fans about her reaction.
