Since I love independent films, I decided to give this one a try. "Boy Wonderz" has to be one of the weirder films I've ever seen. Take five guys, add an extra syllable to their names (except good ol' Kenny) and presto! An instant spoof of the average boy band. The "Susie O'Connell" bit was pushing it into spoof land, but if you've seen (or actually care about) the TV movie that started 2ge+her's career, this will be a been there, done that type of thing. See, I prefer my spoofs available to rent, and lesser known.
The gist: 5 female cops in San Francisco and their problems and adventures. Bonnie Bedelia, Lela Rochon, Tracey Needham, Nancy McKeon, and Lisa Vidal star in this series that is headed for doom while on the Lifetime network. Seeing the network, the episodes will most likely revolve around the whole "woman-in-peril" subplot. McKeon is a talented actress, as are the others, and shouldn't subject themselves to doing nothing except "woman-in-peril" stuff. This series might fare better on NBC, whose new season was met with insufficient failures. This show is ok, just needs a new network.
Like most people who probably saw this one, I saw in on the Lifetime network. This one stars Nancy McKeon as Melanie, who's framed for killing her boss. McKeon does an excellent job in this movie, and her hair doesn't look that bad. However, this one seems as though it was made for TV and probably didn't do well commercially in the big cities. Now it can be seen on Lifetime, where the fact that the title contains the word "woman" is enough to get this one airtime. Bottom line, this is one Lifetime circulated movie NOT to be shown in health class.
