Simply titled College Admissions Scandal, the film is described as the story of how “over 50 privileged and elite individuals from across the country were exposed for criminally conspiring to influence the undergraduate admissions decisions at some of America’s top schools.” I just need to know whose playing Aunt Becky, and if she will have her famous crime hat.
Lori Loughlin is accused of spending $500,000 in bribes to get her two daughters into USC, and was dropped by Hallmark in the midst of her legal battle which, by the way, is still going on. The fact that Lifetime, Hallmark’s competitor, is about to make a mint on using her image is the best and pettiest situation I can think of. Please give me this movie, like, yesterday.
According to TV Line, Lifetime has shared the following synopsis for the special:
College Admissions Scandal will follow two wealthy mothers who share an obsession with getting their teenagers into the best possible college. When charismatic college admissions consultant Rick Singer offers a side door into the prestigious institutions of their dreams, they willingly partake with visions of coveted acceptance letters in their heads. But when Singer cooperates with the FBI and pleads guilty, the mothers who risked everything for their kids, must face the consequences of their crimes and the loss of trust and respect from their families.
Clearly, the movie will focus on Aunt Becky and Felicity Huffman, and there will be no better movie ever. Not even Cats.
