Chuck Lorre Claims Jenna Elfman Refused to Work With Him After He Left Scientology

Chuck Lorre’s new memoir“Sitcom”includes a claim that’s getting a lot of attention: he says Jenna Elfman refused to work with him again after he left Scientology. Lorre co-created“Dharma&Greg,”which starred Elfman from 1997 to 2002, and he reportedly approached her about another show once the sitcom ended. According to Lorre, she called him a“suppressive person”and a“blown Scientologist,”meaning she couldn’t work with him. He writes that he told her to go f— herself.

The book also details Lorre’s own history with the church. He says he was introduced to Scientology as a young musician in Columbus, Ohio, signed a billion-year Sea Org contract, and lasted just two days. He and his first wife were later excommunicated after leaving, according to his account.

The story lands hard for“Dharma&Greg”fans who’ve hoped for a revival for years. Instead of a reboot, the relationship between its two biggest names is now memoir material. Would you still watch a reunion if it ever happened?
