Kari Wuhrer

In 2006, actress Kari Wuhrer of "General Hospital" sued ABC, claiming that the show killed off her character when she got preggers. She says that the writers of the show refused to work with her, and that this was a systematic problem. "Even one whiff that an actress on an ABC daytime soap has conceived a child is enough to have her character killed off the show," the suit claimed. Meanwhile, the show alleged that the character was killed because she wasn't "sexy" and didn't have good chemistry with her co-star. [NY Times]
