Lifetime Enlists JAG Beauty, Shuts Angela's Eyes
First, you got David James Elliott back on your screens (on Close to Home), now his JAG leading lady is bound for her own new TV gig. Lifetime has granted a 13-episode series order to Army Wives, an ensemble drama starring Catherine Bell, Kim Delaney, Brigid Brannagh (Over There) and Sally Pressman as military men's missus. Shot on location in Charleston, South Carolina, Army Wives is set for a March bow.
In other Lifetime news, the cabler has opted not to pick up second seasons of either Angela's Eyes or Lovespring International (starring the always-fab Jane Lynch).

This is the last time I watch a Lifetime weekly drama. I really like the show and thought it had some other viewers. I'm sick of the casual way networks start and stop shows. It doesn't pay to get involved.

well if I doesn't get the ratings it doesn't bring in any money and you can't run a show without money. Lifetime let them run a full season which is more then most networks would do.

I note with some sympathy the first comment. Over the last few years I have gotten involved with a few series that quit after a few shows. Yet the second comment is right, no money no show, Yet I wonder just how the ratings can be done on cable shows since they tend to focus on particular markets that I don't think are easily measured or , at least, are not easily measured by the normal rating methods.
