I knew Lifetime movies were a punchline. Melodrama, schmaltz, more cheese than a custard stand in Milwaukee...but I didn't know they were also outstanding entertainment. Right now I'm watching Homeless to Harvard: the Liz Murray story. Then I'm going to watch To Be Fat Like Me. LOVE the obesity crisis. THEN it's Swimming Upstream for when I need some Ben Savage one-on-one time. My whole DVR is soon to be filled with only Lifetime movies. Forget the AFI's top 100 films list. I think I just found my new favorite channel--one that's the perfect accompaniment for cheap red wine, Lean Cuisine microwave dinners, and me all by my lonesome.
p.s. When I think of Lifetime, I think of Kelly Martin. And a lovable pooch holding a frisbee/dinner plate? in a very endearing, scampy way.

I love Lifetime.
"In The Best Interest Of The Children" was such a bad and funny movie that my aunt went on a month race to buy a bootleg off ebay for me. It's worth it!
I'll keep my eyes peeled. Anytime there are children getting hurt, it's a must-see!
