Bette was a CBS television show which premiered on October 11, 2000 lasting one season, with Bette Midler playing herself - a "divine celebrity" who is adored by her fans. There were several similarities to Bette's actual career through the show's run and many of her celebrity friends appeared as themselves during the show's short run. Guest stars included Danny DeVito, George Segal, Sharon Lawrence, David James Elliott, Lily Tomlin, Oprah Winfrey, Tony Danza, Dolly Parton, Olivia Newton-John and Jon Lovitz, all as themselves. The Halloween episode featured Dolly Parton as herself with her and Bette filming a TV special. Bette ended up getting Dolly arrested after stealing one of Dolly's outfits and going trick or treating dressed as Dolly. For other uses, see CBS (disambiguation). ...
