Not to mention the fact that really successful cable shows sometimes get better numbers than some of the less successful network shows! :party

futon critic and variety articles say Lifetime gave the green light to make the pilot last fall - but so far I don't see any info on the web that would suggest it got picked up

pilot made in canada

Lorraine Brocco (sopranos) was cast as the mom

If Lifetime liked the pilot they would have the option to pick up the drama for their network
