A 'Perfect' Friday on LMN


I don't know about you, but I am a sucker for themed double features and marathons on LMN! Tonight, the network hosts a "Perfect" double feature with "Perfect High" and "The Perfect Girlfriend." So ... grab the perfect cocktail and curl up on the couch.



The fun kicks off at 7 p.m. (CST) with the semi-serious "Perfect High." This is one of those Lifetime features that's reminiscent of old school made-for-TV movies with a message and after school specials. Amanda (Bella Thorne) is a teenage dancer who's destined for success. After a serious injury, she begins to recuperate with the aid of painkillers. Unfortunately, her dependence on these pills grows and she falls in with the wrong crowd. Before long, she's seriously abusing pharmaceuticals and making a mess of her life. This is one of those "inspired by a true story" movies and is definitely one of the network's more serious offerings.



Next up is "The Perfect Girlfriend" at 9 p.m. ,which is classic LMN fare. Simone (Adrienne Frantz in an awesome performance) is an insecure nutcase. Unfortunately, she's also in a management position. When handsome Brandon (Jon Cor) begins to work for her, sparks fly. Well, they fly in Simone's crazy eyes. Brandon is committed to a long-distance relationship with his dedicated girlfriend Jensyn (Ashley Leggat). It doesn't take a psychic to predict that Simone is out to sabotage the relationship and dig her claws into Brandon. She even tricks him into caring for her dog Bentley (another great performance). Of course, she doesn't even own a dog, so she runs out an adopts one! Bentley's a good judge of character and destroys some of her shoes. Simone seduces Scott and screws up his life royally, but Jensyn is determined to rescue him.

So, it's TGILifetime tonight! A perfect evening of drugs, sex and lies! So, pick up a six-pack, order a pizza and get ready for another awesome evening of TV courtesy of LMN.
