Q: Your help is needed for a television-fan campaign. Lifetime's Side Order of Life is a show that has not only been fresh and entertaining, but has a message that inspires those of us living with cancer. (I'm a two-time young-adult cancer survivor.) For once, a television show dealt with cancer in a responsible, realistic way without curing or killing the character in one season or at least by sweeps week. This show allowed us to see a character as a survivor, without the clichéd victimization... read more

The strike has delayed Lifetime from making certain decisions regarding returning shows and new pilots currently in development.

I'm a faithful reader of yours, and I'm hoping that you might share what you've heard about the possibility of Lifetime's Side Order of Life returning for a second season. It didn't seem to get much attention after its premiere, but I found it to be a charming little show for Sunday evenings to help me ease back into the work week. I particularly enjoyed Diana-Maria Riva's performance as Vivy. It was great to see a strong yet vulnerable woman fighting a devastating disease with such grace and... read more

OK, I know it's not your channel or your kind of show (it is a chick thing!), but I was wondering: Have you previewed any episodes of Lifetime's Side Order of Life? Though it's a little cheesy, with its Ally McBeal-esque antics (not done half as well...), the heart of this show is very sweet and genuine. Diana-Maria Riva is absolutely amazing as Vivy. The way she makes me laugh and cry, portraying a woman striving to live a normal life despite having cancer, is a prime example of why I love TV... read more
