Molly Ringwald wasn't fond of her time on "The Secret Life of the American Teenager."
On a Tuesday, Aug. 4 episode of "Watch What Happens Live," the "Breakfast Club" actress, 58, rated her experience on the teen drama series a "one out of 10."
"That was it. The worst," she told host Andy Cohen as he asked her to rate her experiences on various films and TV shows.
She clarified that she loved the cast, including series star and her on-screen daughter, Shailene Woodley, but but recalled one difficult co-worker. "There was one person that was really difficult and I'm not going to say who that person is," she said.
"And it brought it down to a
one?" Cohen asks, to which Ringwald confirms.
Ringwald played Amy Juergens' mother, Anne Juergens, for 96 episodes of the ABC Family series, which ran for five seasons from 2008 to 2013.
Molly Ringwald rates her experience on 'Pretty in Pink'
Throughout the segment, she also rated her experience on other projects, giving her hit 1986 film "Pretty in Pink" a perfect score of 10, adding, "that was pretty great." She said the fact that director John Hughes wrote the project for her made it extra special.
"I actually have a collage that I made myself in the bedroom," she said. "Except for the prom dress, I loved all my costumes."
She gave sitcoms "The Facts of Life" and "Diff'rent Strokes" a score of two; 2001's "Not Another Teen Movie" a four; 1999's "Teaching Mrs. Tingle" an eight; and 2015's "Jem and the Holograms" a seven.
Ringwald is largely known for her roles in 1980s teen movie classics like "Sixteen Candles," "The Breakfast Club" and "Pretty in Pink" – as well as her later television roles in "Riverdale" and Netflix's "Monster: The Jeffrey Dahmer Story."
She is also in the upcoming romantic comedy film "One Night Only," out in theaters nationwide Friday, Aug. 7, alongside Callum Turner and Monica Barbaro.
