Wow. If these movies were being shown today, they'd end up on the Lifetime channel. :)

I don't have cable...what's that channel all about? I just wish there were some rep cinemas around that would play this stuff but I think that's asking too much from a financial risk angle, isn't it?

Oh, it's geared toward women. They always have these cheesy movies about the 14-year-old daughter getting pregnant or the man that beats his girlfriend/wife.

ahh! my mother in law is addicted to the "lifetime movie channel"--which always has either meredith baxter, valerie bertinelli, or nancy mckeon doing something dramatic and exploitive! i WISH they'd show these! :)

I would love that channel, I'm sure. Movies of the week type stuff sounds pretty good.h

Excellent. Besides the topical matter, I like the fact that the artist wasn't confident enough in his drawing to not have to write "maternity ward" in the corner.

It just helps explain things so much better when it's in writing. That way you know the baby wasn't delivered in a cab or something.
