Kirstie Alley is making her TV comeback as the star of an A&E reality show chronicling her struggle to raise her teenage children and lose weight.
The cable network has ordered 10 half-hour episodes of the “docu-series” featuring the Cheers star.
“I have a new show on A&E,” Kirstie, 58, Tweeted Nov. 3. “A very funny docu about me liosing [sic] weight, raising unpretentious kids, and biz.”
“I hope it’s not like any real show you’ve ever seen.. Thats my goal..” she added in another Twitter message. “I hate reality shows, so this outta be a REAL challenge..”
Kirstie, who was a spokeswoman for Jenny Craig, appeared in the self-referential 2005 Showtime comedy, Fat Actress, playing a version of herself coping with Hollywood’s fixation on thinness.

BIG Pat on the back and hug’s for Valerie for defending Kirstie Alley Like losing weight and keeping it off is easy ……. Rolls Eyes
Good for her!!!!!!!!!! Reality shows are taking over the world
What she needs to do is admit she’s been a big ole lifetime spokesman for a group that engages in fraud. Then she needs to apologize for supporting Narconon, which is dangerous, ineffective, and expensive, and CCHR, which says psychs caused 9/11 and the Holocaust (this is what they actually believe). If A&E is going to let this train wreck of a woman be portrayed as quirky and fun, I will officially throw my television set out the window.
