The TV star, who dropped her last name after dropping husband Tom Arnold, has struck a deal with the producers of the popular ABC comedy to continue her show for at least three more years.
Production began Monday for the coming season, said Carsey-Werner Co. spokesman James Anderson. He said it was against company policy to discuss details of contracts.
\ "Charlie's Angels" actress Kate Jackson is doing well after surgery to correct a heart defect, her spokeswoman says.
The 45-year-old Jackson had the operation at a Birmingham, Ala., hospital July 25 and was released on Friday.
"This is a problem that existed from birth that has only recently caused symptoms," Lisa Kasteler said in a statement. "Tests done after surgery demonstrated that the defect was fully repaired and Ms. Jackson's heart was substantially improved and now totally normal."
Jackson also underwent breast cancer surgery in 1989.
