She Fought Alone



She Cried No (the one where Zack Morris rapes DJ Tanner)



No One Would Tell (the one where Kevin Arnold kills DJ Tanner)

The one where the kid is addicted to porn and uses energy drinks as a substitution for masturbation because Lifetime can't show a kid jacking off on television.

Decent Lifetime Movie is an oxymoron.

It was quite a change of pace for JD McCoy

Lifetime was weird.

Afterschool Specials were all about drugs. Everyone was getting addicted. They'd have some 1985 special about suburbia girls smoking crack at school.

Even Helen Hunt was in one where she snorts Angel Dust and then jumps out a school window.

But Lifetime was always about domestic violence against women.

Afterschool specials - every kid in the suburbs is doing drugs and commmiting suicide.

Lifetime movies - every boyfriend in the suburbs is beating his girlfriend and/or killing them.

All their movies were either about women getting raped or killed, or women killing their boyfriend or husband.

Most LMN movies are about a child being abducted or a cheating spouse I believe.

They're actually more heavily leaned towards crazy/slutty/stalker women now than cheating/abusive men.

Me and the SO watched one a few months back about a baby in a bear costume locked in a car in the middle of the desert. It was great.

There was one called Cyberbully a few years that was unintentionally hilarious. The Saved by the Bell behind the scenes movie was good too.

see if you can guess the title of this one based off the description...
quote:

A young girl discovers, to her disgust, that naked photos of her have been uploaded to numerous social media websites from a "revenge porn" webpage. When nothing is done, she makes it her personal crusade to find the perpetrator.

The only Lifetime movie that I remember was the one with the Mom from Family Ties.

The Betty Broderick case.

Meredith was a lunatic.

That was my first inkling...of uh-oh, don't date a lunatic because women be crazy.

Dangerous Child (2001) was memorable. The kid from Luck of the Irish played a teen with anger problems who beats up his mom, played by Delta Burke

No. I can honestly say I’ve never seen a decent movie on Lifetime. Some sucked less than others, but they’ve all been pretty bad.


But my wife watches them, so no biggie.

The titles typically give it away that it's an epic crime against humanity of cinematic piece of garbage.

No

But my wife might agree with you.

You're a female, correct?
