Lifetime back in Dish Network
2 Feb 2006 1:12am EST - By Kimberly Speight
Dish Network subscribers have access to Lifetime Television and its sister movie channel once again. Lifetime Entertainment Services and Dish's parent company, EchoStar Communications Corp., said Wednesday that they have resolved the carriage dispute that resulted in EchoStar pulling Lifetime and Lifetime Movie Network from the satellite provider at midnight on New Year's Eve. Lifetime and EchoStar said both channels were restored to Dish customers at 11 p.m. EST Tuesday after the companies reached a new multiyear distribution agreement. EchoStar and Lifetime declined comment on the financial terms of the new agreement. Visit HollywoodReporter.com for more ...

You should have stuck around. The preview aired during the second ep of 'Wil and Grace' that showed after the Prom movie.

And I have it on tape.

Thanks for the promo, Nodaskip. It looks decent. I'm not a big fan of the femme fatale movie genre and it looks like the cop is the lead, so it's a bit disappointing for me. But I'll be watching and it looks like CC has done a fantastic job as usual.

How'd you come up with that? The promo I saw on Lifetime pretty much featured CC and it only announced her name ...staring Charisma Carpenter.

Granted I didn't even recognize the other people in the promo so she might be the only 'name' in the movie but it does seem as though she is the lead.

cast list from IMDB

Cast - in credits order
Charisma Carpenter ... Laura Clifford
James Thomas ... Rafe Marino
Victoria Sanchez ... Gloria Moretti
Karen Cliche ... Ellen Antonelli
James Berlingieri ... Dino Maconell
Maggie Castle ... Jane

that tells me that CC is THE STAR

I came up with that *guess* based on my experience with these types of movies and knowing how they manipulate promos to sell a product one way when it's really something else. I just got a vibe from the promo that it will fall into the category that the hunt for the bad guy/gal is the real thrust of the movie and we only see short scenes with the actual villain. But it was just a guess. It could be mostly CC and her men with no one realizing there is a crime to solve and then doing so until the last 30 minutes. I just wouldn't be surprised if they're using her "name" and the sex to sell the movie and it ended up being less about her and more about the guy/female cop relationship.

ETA: Also, sometimes "star billing" only means that's what the actor was able to negotiate because he/she is the most well-known in the cast. I'm not saying that has to be the case here, but "starring" doesn't always mean the most screen time.

ETA2: Reading the blurb about the movie on the LT site also gave me the feeling it is going to be more from the man's perspective than CC's and that the guy would be enlisting the help of the female cop to trap CC. So that adds to my gut feeling that CC may not be in it as much as we hope.

I see what you're saying Deb.

Aww. CC looks gorgeous in the promo. Can't wait to see it.

I see what you're saying Deb but IIRC the story is about CC's character trying to prove that she's not the killer. This is the story with CC's character being a cat burglar, right?

It sounds to me that it's going to be one of those things where CC's character looks to be the killer but in the end it turns out to be someone totally different, most likely cop lady, who bares a resemblance, IMO to CC.

BTW – the whole cop lady/killer thing is not a spoiler just a guess based on countless femme fatale stories that have come before.

However, I don't watch enough Lifetime to actually know how their promos work, going by the one I saw, CC is the female lead, if it's told from the male lead's POV then she might not be the lead, lead but does that really matter?

And I think we have a winnah!

It looks very Basic Instinct to me. Kinda.

Thanks for the clip, nodaskip!
