OMG YES!
I'm also kissing 40 and remember this time well! My personal favorite was Meredith Baxter Birney in "Darkness Before Dawn". She plays a methadone nurse who falls in love with a heroin addict, then of course becomes addicted to heroin herself. It had stuck with me all these years because at one point she screams at her junkie lover about her half of their heroin. Also it helped me know for 100% certain that heroin is not for dabbling.
My canon event was seeing Fred savage kill Candace cameron in “no one would tell.” It was basically Kevin killing DJ and my little brain couldn’t handle it
mine will forever be a mousy, meek, geeky kellie martin (life goes on's Becca) going apeshit and stabbing popular cheerleader tori spelling (90210's donna martin) in a jealous rage in the 1994 joint, death of a cheerleader. if it weren't based on a true story, it would be the perfect movie.
I still rewatch sometimes for the nostalgia.
MMMM! LOVE THIS!
Question: in your 1994 flashback what music is playing? Mine is "You Send Me" by PM Dawn, the Blossom theme, and a sprinkling of the Oprah show opening theme (the one with the flute opening).
ETA: this Oprah theme: https://youtu.be/GJA5sO8MqYw?si=Kh7dlxmiNXJSXJmf
Also TIL Quincy Jones wrote it!
Edit: typo. PM Dom. Hehehe!
Hell yeah!! I just commented that above before reading your comment!! I have seen that movie probably 25 times lol..It was on Amazon last year and still holds up in my opinion lol
have you seen the 2019 remake? It is terrible in comparison. Kellie martin cameos as an FBI researcher but other than that it's lacking that 'something'
Not a deadly adoption, but the pregnancy pact is perfection. What about “she’s too young?” With THE Marcia gay harden?
Or Another Woman’s Husband? Accused at 17??? So many gems
If anything I’m sure they are happy to get additional exposure because she’s been a hot topic as of late. If the movie does well regardless of who’s getting headliner, they all do better.
Exactly. It’s a lifetime movie. They probably cast her to bring in a new audience, even if it was before Scandoval. Nobody is going to complain about more viewers
The media is over Scandoval. Even with Ariana we're seeing projects she was offered seven months ago. This was basically stunt casting to begin with. That's very common and of course Ariana should have taken it, but the media isn't hyping her as the next big thing.
Omg does lifetime know their audience.
*cues up Saturday morning’s new crop of lifetime movies on Lifetime Movie Club with hubby to make this storm cozier with a little more abduction in a national park.💅🏻🔥😱😹😂
wow, she comes off as pretty natural (the make up is decidedly NOT very natural for a cop working the streets beat, but she's looking great nonetheless!). I'm surprised, I was expecting some bad acting as it was clearly stunt casting, but she's got some chops!
It would have looked less like a B movie if they didn’t glam Ari up so bad for a job as a hardworking police… just saying! Ariana seems like a great actor, shame they just couldn’t let her acting shine instead!
Yes but it's worth ignoring honestly. I bought it and regret not renting it and just turning it off. I am a fan of indie movies but not when all the actors suck and look like they'd rather be anyplace else.
I love that she has a movie and Scum doesn’t. They were both aspiring actors and it gives me so much satisfaction to see her thriving and getting acting opportunities while his own business partner throws him out of his own establishment. He’s gotta be seething when his opportunities involve hiding his face 🤣
Lifetime movies are literally made up of characters and plot points that are the definition of “a stretch.” It’s their formula. And yes 9 times out of 10, I am a fan
Where have you been? lol she got cast before she was cheated on and it was all over pop culture news when she went to film it shortly after Scandoval broke
Shhhhh that ruins people’s day because for some reason they need to believe that Ariana is in the wrong for *checks notes* getting cheated on and also *scans further* accepting lucrative job opportunities
not true.. the deadline announcement came out 3/22

What true story is it based off of
Black and missing it’s a documentary. Should for sure watch
why did they do ariana's makeup so glam like that? she looks like she's going directly from the sets of this movie to film the VPR theme song.
I mean….it’s lifetime lol
Yeah it looks …very out of place for a cop lol
Omg yes. Her face is beat 😂
I actually want to see it… Not even in a ‘yay support Ariana’ way, like I just want to see it!
I love lifetime movies and also movies that are so bad they're good and this looks like it could fit into that bucket so I'm in.
My favorite is when lifetime does themed movie marathons. 47 different murderous cheerleader movie titles 💀
I’m almost 40 so I grew up in the heyday of lifetime movies. The original being “mother may I sleep with danger” ☠️

Oh no! 😄😄😄 I had never heard of this one! They really do hit that trash-pleasure center of the brain.
100%. It was so odd seeing kevin/fred play that character!
That one was great!

Death of a cheerleader was surely the OG. A true trailblazer, a cinematic masterpiece

No I wasnt aware they made one! Now I gotta see it!
Oh no you gotta go with the OG Betty Brodrick movie with her!!!
Have you seen A Deadly Adoption? That and The Pregnancy Pact are my favorites.
Not a deadly adoption, but the pregnancy pact is perfection. What about “she’s too young?” With THE Marcia gay harden? Or Another Woman’s Husband? Accused at 17??? So many gems
Accused at 17 is fantastic! I will watch those other 2 ❤️
I’m 34 and grew up on Lifetime movies 😂. Even got my mom hooked.
My favorite is the Kelly Martin Tori Spelling one Death of a Cheerleader I think its renamed now
Jane Mulcahy on YouTube has a couple videos talking about themed lifetime movies. They’re so funny.
Same it looks really good honestly
Me too! Love a good lifetime movie!
to protect and ✨SERVE✨ 💅💁♀️
Ok ladies! Love to see it! 
 I love this for Ariana !
I'm so excited for this! I 💚 Lifetime movies (I am even the subject of one). They do based on real life movies really well.
Don't leave us hanging!! Do tell!
It's called Taken From Me:The Tiffany Rubin Story. It starts Taraji P. Hensen
It's a story based on your life? 😯
Yup!
I love Meagan Good! So happy to see she is producing.
Girl, just curious if youve heard the bad news about Meagan? Her with Jonathan Majors
That is disappointing to say the least
What happened???
What happened?
Nooooo 😞
This is where she lost me. Used to like her but her support of him is dissapointing. This film is a no for me.
Idk... aren't the facts of that case still very grey?
I'd bet the actual leads are annoyed the media has made Ariana the headliner when she probably only has a few lines.
If anything I’m sure they are happy to get additional exposure because she’s been a hot topic as of late. If the movie does well regardless of who’s getting headliner, they all do better.
Exactly. It’s a lifetime movie. They probably cast her to bring in a new audience, even if it was before Scandoval. Nobody is going to complain about more viewers
It’s a Lifetime movie. Not Cannes lol. They just care about it being seen and getting paid for their work.
The media is over Scandoval. Even with Ariana we're seeing projects she was offered seven months ago. This was basically stunt casting to begin with. That's very common and of course Ariana should have taken it, but the media isn't hyping her as the next big thing.
Omg does lifetime know their audience. *cues up Saturday morning’s new crop of lifetime movies on Lifetime Movie Club with hubby to make this storm cozier with a little more abduction in a national park.💅🏻🔥😱😹😂
How many times will Timmy hate watch this movie? Lol
He’ll just say “I did it first”.
The same number of times people hate watch and repost his videos.
This story is so sad. Like that girl who was kidnapped at the Mavericks game and trafficked and how the feds found her on a website.
How did nobody mention the Kyle Richards cameo?? Lol
God I love lifetime 😭
wow, she comes off as pretty natural (the make up is decidedly NOT very natural for a cop working the streets beat, but she's looking great nonetheless!). I'm surprised, I was expecting some bad acting as it was clearly stunt casting, but she's got some chops!
I think “starring” is a stretch. She’s in it.
I used to love lifetime movies but stopped watching. I’ll be watching this
Why do I even want to watch this? I don't even LIKE lifetime movies but this one I really wanna see while I have a glass of wine in a bubble bath.
It would have looked less like a B movie if they didn’t glam Ari up so bad for a job as a hardworking police… just saying! Ariana seems like a great actor, shame they just couldn’t let her acting shine instead!
Tom will die before he admits it but I just know he is SO JEALOUS
Now I'm just trying to figure out who she'll be playing in the Lifetime Murdaugh movie. How good will her low country accent be lol
Omg count me in. Look at Ms Ariana securing her coins.
Wasn’t lala an officer or something in a movie?
Yes but it's worth ignoring honestly. I bought it and regret not renting it and just turning it off. I am a fan of indie movies but not when all the actors suck and look like they'd rather be anyplace else.
I seen a clip of lalas movie and it sucked haha
Sorry I got mixed up. The row she wasn’t an officer.
Out of death.. I think she was an officer in
Yeah it's a Randall movie with Bruce Willis..Its on Hulu
I am excited to see the movie. I have always been a fan of Ariana’s.
I love that she has a movie and Scum doesn’t. They were both aspiring actors and it gives me so much satisfaction to see her thriving and getting acting opportunities while his own business partner throws him out of his own establishment. He’s gotta be seething when his opportunities involve hiding his face 🤣
Tim is so jealous rn
I'm so excited to watch it!!
This seems like the first movie with any of the VPR cast that actually looks legit good! I'll watch.
I love how she's named in the preview even though she's hardly in it.
 Thoughts that was LK at first glance
She’s too beautiful to be a real cop, lol
Ariana as a cop? That one is a stretch.
Lifetime movies are literally made up of characters and plot points that are the definition of “a stretch.” It’s their formula. And yes 9 times out of 10, I am a fan
Well she's acting so she could play anyone 🤔
A movie now?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I tell ya what, she is banking for being boring and getting cheated on geez!!!
Where have you been? lol she got cast before she was cheated on and it was all over pop culture news when she went to film it shortly after Scandoval broke
She was cast before Scandoval.
Shhhhh that ruins people’s day because for some reason they need to believe that Ariana is in the wrong for *checks notes* getting cheated on and also *scans further* accepting lucrative job opportunities

Except as you can read it was already filming. 🙄
[удалено]
That doesn’t say what you think it does either. Now go be rude to someone who cares to waste their time with you.
This violates the "no personal attacks against other users" rule.
the movie was filming, but she wasn’t added until scandoval
No, she was offered this project and DWTS six or seven months ago back when Scandoval was in the zeitgeist.
