Bette Midler is still upset with Lindsay Lohan for bailing on their 2000s sitcom "Bette" ... and apparently feels like she should've taken her to court for jumping ship.

Bette opened up about the failed endeavor on David Duchovny's podcast "Fail Better," where she called the show a big mistake. The sitcom only ran for 1 season on CBS back in 2000 ... and Bette is now kinda pointing the finger at LiLo for its short tenure.

She says ... "Lindsay Lohan was cast as my daughter in the pilot. Well, after the pilot, Lindsay Lohan decided she didn’t want to do it. Or she had other fish to fry. So, Lindsay Lohan left the building. And I said, well, now what do you do?"

If you miss Travis Kelce on the football field, in the podcast world or on a game show ... don't worry, there's now yet another way you can see the NFL star -- on the small screen in a new FX horror series.

The Kansas City Chiefs tight end revealed Tuesday he's scored a role in Ryan Murphy's upcoming show, "Grotesquerie."

It's not clear how big Taylor Swift's boyfriend's part will be ... although his co-worker on the project, Niecy Nash-Betts, appeared to indicate in videos from the set that he ain't exactly an extra.

Bridget Moynahan is smiling on the outside -- showing up for her costar Tom Selleck's event in NYC -- but she's also strongly hinting she's pissed about her ex, Tom Brady's roast, where their split was fodder for savage jokes.

The actress popped up Tuesday night at Manhattan's 92nd Street Y for a discussion about her "Blue Bloods" costar Selleck's new book, "You Never Know: A Memoir" in New York.

Moynahan seemed happy and content as she posed for photogs, and even spoke to a live audience about his book and the recent canceling of their CBS show after 14 seasons.

It's hump day in the week -- and we're gonna help you get passed it with our TV topics!

Let's kick things off with "TMZ Live," where Charles and Charlie dove into how Gisele is reportedly feeling after Tom Brady's roast ... where their former relationship as husband and wife was front and center and getting mercilessly mocked.

Safe to say, she ain't too happy about it ... and she ain't pleased with TB12 either, it seems.

Bill Maher says he's ready to drop the mic and walk away from stand-up comedy for good -- and it's because he says he wants to pursue other ventures ... including more podcasting.

The 'Real Time' host was recently chopping it up with Jerry Seinfeld on his 'Club Random' podcast -- and they started discussing the possibility of Bill hanging it up on the stage ... namely, him giving up telling jokes in front of a crowd under a spotlight.

As Bill explains ... he loves the craft and has been doing it for years -- but, like with anything, you gotta stay in practice to be good ... and it sounds like BM's a little tired.

Tom Selleck is apparently still very much a working actor -- to the point that he says he's worried about losing one of his properties now that his famous show is going off the air.

He made the startling revelation on CBS Sunday Morning this weekend -- where he was being interviewed about the fact 'Blue Bloods' had finally been canceled after 14 seasons ... where he served as the lead star for all them, playing the head honcho of the NYPD.

Now that his most consistent gig is getting the axe, Tom says he's not so sure he can afford his 63-acre ranch in Cali ... and while that might sound like a joke, homeboy ain't playing.

We're starting the week off strong here at TMZ -- and that goes doubly for our TV topics!!!

Let's kick things off with 'TMZ Live,' where Charles and Babcock talked about the roast seen-round-the-world -- and it came courtesy of none other than Tom Brady himself, the GOAT.

Safe to say ... he took some slings and arrows, but a lot of other folks caught strays as well.

American actor Paul Schneider was in his early 30's when he first started playing Mark -- the self-centered architect who juggles multiple women at a time -- on the political satire sitcom "Parks And Recreation" back in 2009.

Schneider was part of an ensemble cast including Amy Poehler as the intelligent deputy director, Leslie Knope, Rashida Jones playing the friendly and awkward nurse and Leslies's bestie, Anne Perkins and Aubrey Plaza as the assistant who enjoys booze and music, April Ludgate.

Paul was also in the 2007 Western Film "The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford" with Brad Pitt.

The biggest night in fashion is underway and the biggest names from around the world are ready to climb the iconic Metropolitan Museum Of Art stairs ... and they all look wide awake!

Vogue's EIC Anna Wintour spared no expense to create an eye-popping exhibit in NYC, with this year's theme being 'Sleeping Beauties: Reawakening Fashion.' And, it looks like the celebs didn't skimp on the style either, nor were they dozing off as they made an entrance.

Peep the stars who've already shown up -- you had the likes of Bad Bunny, Zendaya, Chris Hemsworth and Jennifer Lopez show up bright and early to lead the charge ... fitting, since they're the A-list co-chairs of the shindig. Ashely Graham dropped in and made a splash too.

La noche más grande de la moda está en marcha y las celebridades más importantes de todo el mundo están listas para subir las escaleras del icónico Metropolitan Museum Of Art.

Anna Wintour, directora ejecutiva de Vogue, no ha escatimado en gastos para crear una impresionante exposición en Nueva York, con el tema de este año: "Bellas durmientes: Reawakening Fashion". Y parece que las celebrities tampoco escatimaron en estilo, ni se quedaron dormidas mientras hacían su entrada.

Echa un vistazo a las estrellas que ya han aparecido, entre ellos Bad Bunny, Zendaya, Chris Hemsworth y Jennifer López, quienes llegaron temprano para liderar la noche, algo muy apropiado considerando que son los copresidentes de la fiesta.

Parece que Tom Selleck sigue siendo un actor muy trabajador, pero ahora le preocupa perder una de sus propiedades ahora que su famosa serie va a dejar de emitirse.

Hizo la sorprendente revelación en CBS Sunday Morning este fin de semana, donde fue entrevistado sobre el hecho de que "Blue Bloods" finalmente fue cancelada después de 14 temporadas, donde se desempeñó como la estrella principal para todos ellos, interpretando al jefe de la policía de Nueva York.

Ahora que su proyecto más consistente está llegando a su fin, Tom dice que no está tan seguro de que pueda pagar su rancho de 63 acres en California, y mientras que podría sonar como una broma, parece que no está jugando.

Kristi Noem's book's landed her in hot water again ... this time resulting from a factual error claiming she met Kim Jong Un -- even though the meet never happened.

The South Dakota Governor went on CBS' "Face The Nation" Sunday morning to talk politics and her upcoming autobiography 'No Going Back' ... and, the show's host Margaret Brennan brought up a passage where Noem wrote she met the North Korean dictator.

Check out the clip ... Noem says the passage's being taken out of the book -- which doesn't come out until Tuesday FWIW -- after the passage was brought to her attention. Basically, arguing she had no idea the story got in there.

Kate Beckinsale's fed up with trolls claiming she's had work done ... firing back in a lengthy Instagram caption and letting people know their bullying's taken a toll.

The actress took to the popular social media site early Sunday morning to address haters who insist she's had a lot of work done over the years ... calling it a subtle, vicious move by bullies.

It's a long rant -- accompanied by a pair of videos featuring the British superstar she says were taken years apart -- but the gist of it ... KB's saying people need to back the hell off and stop spreading lies.

Chance Perdomo will forever be the only Andre Anderson for "Gen V" ... producers announced Sunday they won't cast another actor in the role after his untimely death.

The team behind the popular "The Boys" spin-off announced the news on the show's official Instagram account ... penning an emotional tribute to the late star who died earlier this year.

Basically, the post says the team's looking for the best way to honor Chance's memory ... and, ultimately they say they've decided casting a new actor in the part isn't going to work.

It's Sunday Funday, people ... so sit back, relax and enjoy the best TMZ clips we've got to offer!!!
