For the Love of Nancy Parts 3-5

When I watched For the Love of Nancy, I was but a child. I was also not allowed to have refined sugar, which probably really just gave me the opposite of anorexia also known as binge eating.
I say this because I was so terribly jealous of the meals they got. I wanted Nancy's chocolate milk- - she didn't need to bust a hole in her closet and hide it! My eight year old body would have loved to drink 2% chocolate milk.

Sigh.




Nancy has the opposite feelings about chocolate, so she checks herself out. "DADDY I'm 18 years old I can check myself out!"
She is so much luckier than poor Sussana Kasen, but then Susanna Kasen went way beyond Lifetime Television for women, for now at least.

DJ Tanner-- just asking for it?

Now when Zach Morris raped DJ, I did feel bad for her. No one believed her and she just wanted to drink non-alcoholic punch and go to a costume party. As you have read previously, Zach Morriss completely betrayed her trust.

But now it's 1996 and DJ is playing the role of Stacy Collins, your above average popular high school girl. There's just one thing missing in her life (enter Fred Savage)






But don't fear. DJ is not raped this time. She is just beat up over the course of 5 months by Kevin Arnold. Don't let "The Wonder Years" fool you, this kid did not turn out right.

We all know that jealousy is kind of nice at first. When a dude gets jealous over you, you almost feel like you have the upper hand, and the upper hand is a coveted position. But when a nice little "I care bout ya" jealousy turns into "I am stalking you," maybe it's time to take a step back before you get back handed. As in previous roles, DJ gets it together in the end and she presses charges. Justice is served. Let this be a lesson to you my friends, sometimes people are not who they think you are. And watching abuse can be just as bad just like cutters will tell you their cat scratched them, girls getting hit will tell you they walked into walls, or garage doors closed on them.


bonus points: guest spot Judge played by Sallie Jessy Raphael


Sadly, there is no soundtrack available for purchase to go along with this film. I suggest listening to the album Live Through This because nothing makes you feel like you're getting the shit beat out of you quite like the voice of Courtney Love

Some people like to listen to Darkside of the Moon while watching The Wizard of Oz, but why don't you try this instead

Here is the track list:

	1. Violet
	2. Miss World
	3. Plump
	4. Asking For It
	5. Jennifer's Body

	8. Softer, Softest
	9. She Walks On Me

For the Love of Nancy part 1 &2




Nancy is just your regular girl graduating high school. She's worried about going off to college, and like any normal girl, she treats this fear with a good old eating disorder. I feel you Nancy, sometimes I too would rather jog twenty miles and vomit than write a 10 page paper.
Nancy has a very supportive- could we say too controlling family? Her best bud is the rapist I mentioned earlier, Zach Morris. Zach, or Mark Paul Gosseling if you must, knows something is wrong with his little sister after she wont eat for three weeks after having her wisdom teeth removed. Why this would make anyone suspicious, I cannot say.

College plans are going full speed ahead, Nancy has swayed her way into a single dorm room. She explains to her mother that sharing is for pussies. That night at dinner, her mother informs her that she will in fact be rooming with a nice girl from Phileldehlphia. The panic sets in (cue music) and there is only with thing to do: Jog Nancy! Jog!


What does college have in store?

the inspiration for this blog

I can thank Lifetime movies for a lot of things. Because of them I had a very scewed idea of what sex was until I actually started having it. Lifetime movies like to focus on topics such as (but not limited to) spousal abuse, rape, eating disorders, drinking problems, abusive mothers, abusive fathers, having an affair with someone elses abusive father, a boy spreading sphyllis to his whole school, pathalogical liars, and how pornography can ruin your life.

Lifetime never ruined my life, it only made me that much crazier. And I sincerely thank all of the movies from the bottom of my heart.

In the first posting of "A Lifetime Original Blog" I'd like us to remember the great love story told in She Cried No

An old correspondence:


Ashley,
Kelly Kapowski, you are really lucky that Zack Morris didnt rape you. Later on (lifetime original) he rapes DJ Tanner at a fraternity costume party. I'll admit, DJ did have it coming- but not anymore than Kelly Kapowski.
Is this because D.J had a naturally round face, much rounder than Kelly's? Is it because she left her family behind in San Francisco and never called her sisters Michelle and Stephanie?
D.J's roommate also gets raped, but apparently she did not "cry no".

Daniela,

Kelly Kapowski got hers, too. At 1:15am last night on Lifetime, our dear Kelly was raped in her mother's bed by Jace, the leader of "the crew." Well, no one believed our Kelly when she tried to rat on Jace, and the entire small community of Lockwood, Ill turned against her; writing salacious remarks about Kelly all over the school bathroom, showing up at her house to scare her, making prank calls, even cutting off her hair (although I must admit it turned out quite cute.) Thank God Brian Austen Green finally saw the light and went from head tormenter to boyfriend within the course of a commercial break.In the end, Kelly goes off to junior college, leaving her loser small-town enemies behind, and promoting a slew of middle-school girls the world over to formulate rape fantasies of their own. The end.

-Ashley

More to come.
