CGiii Comment

Stockard Channing is a consummate professional, pity about the rest of the cast.

RuPaul, without the drag, is...unusual and unconvincing.

It is a TV movie - and, it's not a total bomb.

It was designed for the dopey lunchtime housewives...an attempt to open their eyes and minds...yes, even their children might be going through something a little more difficult to comprehend than taffeta skirts and boys.

The intention is good, the execution...not so.
