Lindsay Lohan Seeking Her Own Television Sitcom To "Revitalize Her Career"

To say Lindsay Lohan's portrayal of Elizabeth Taylor in the Lifetime biopic Liz & Dick has been slammed would be putting it mildly.

But the troubled starlet is totally focused on reviving her career after she has become more known for her off-screen exploits than her work in front of the camera.

And RadarOnline reports that LiLo is determined to land her own show to prove her critics wrong.

"Lindsay has asked her manager and agent to look into getting her own television sitcom," an insider told the site.

"Lindsay feels that the small screen would be a great way for her to revitalize her acting career and that a comedy would be the best bet.

"Lindsay feels most comfortable doing comedy and it was Charlie Sheen that told her she should do it. Charlie told Lindsay that it was an easy way to make very good money and help her to get her movie career back on track.

"She is loving the idea of having her own sitcom and would love to play someone in a story based on her crazy life."

But her father Michael took to Twitter to defend her daughter saying "she has more talent in her pinky than all of them together."

"Lindsay hopes that she could get her own television sitcom like Kirstie Alley did with Fat Actress. Lindsay admires what Kirstie did and wants to follow in her footsteps."
