Molly Ringwald rated her experience (not the finished project) working on past tv shows and movies on a scale from 1-10:
1 – The Facts of Life/Diff’rent Strokes (being let go at the age of 12 was hard)4 – Not Another Teen Movie8 – Teaching Mrs. Tingle (because of who she got to work with in the cast)7 – Jem and the Holograms (she had fun making this movie)10 – Pretty in Pink (she loved all her costumes EXCEPT the prom dress)1 – The Secret Life of the American Teenager (she loved Shailene Woodley and the cast but there was one difficult person who she does not name)7 – Yellowjackets (she wishes she had been on set more)
Top Chef winner/host Kristen Kish says the two ingredients she hates for TC contestants to use: smoked salmon (or any smoked fatty fish) and lamb. Molly adds truffle oil to the list, which Kristen agrees with. Molly likes truffles but she thinks truffle oil smells like men’s balls. Kristen thinks it smells like gasoline.
Molly met Samantha Hanratty (young Misty on Yellowjackets) while waiting in line for the bathroom at Sundance. Samantha asked why Molly wasn’t on the show and Molly agreed. Two days later, the show offered her a role.
