ABC Family Greenlights A Second Season of The Hit Drama Series “The Lying Game”

ABCF Secret Life 7A 225x300 ABC Family Greenlights A Second Season of The Hit Drama Series “The Lying Game” %tag

ABC Family announced today the pick-up of a second season of the original drama series “The Lying Game.” The new season will begin production this summer for a winter premiere.

The audience for the drama series grew considerably during its first season, surging by double-digit percent margins. The Winter run was up 28% in W18-34 over the first half of its season, with three consecutive weeks of series highs in the demo, and contributed to ABC Family’s biggest 1Q ever in Prime in Women 18-34, Women 18-49 and Females 12-34.

“The Lying Game” follows identical twins Emma Becker and Sutton Mercer who were separated at birth and led very different lives, each oblivious to the other’s existence until circumstances bring them back together. Yearning for the family she never had, kind-hearted foster kid Emma agrees to step into Sutton’s privileged shoes while she searches for their birth parents, setting in motion a web of secrecy and lies.

“The Lying Game” is produced by Alloy Entertainment in association with Warner Horizon Television and is executive produced by Charles Pratt, Jr., Leslie Morgenstein and Gina Girolamo. The series stars Alexandra Chando, Andy Buckley, Blair Redford, Alice Greczyn, Allie Gonino and Helen Slater with guest stars Adrian Pasdar and Charisma Carpenter.

Rest in Peace Dick Clark

According to ABC News Dick Clark longtime TV Show host and television producer who changed the way we listened to pop music with “American Bandstand,” and whose trademark ABC’s “Rockin’ Eve” became a fixture of New Year’s celebrations, died today at the age of 82 of a massive heart attack.

Clark had been in St. John’s Hospital in Santa Monica, Calif. undergoing an outpatient procedure Tuesday night when he suffered the heart attack. The doctors attempts to resuscitate him were unsuccessful.

He was loved by all and I know for me personally I grew up watching him every Saturday morning on the Bandstand. Makes you wonder how many lives like mine did he touch over his lifetime?

Rest in Peace Good Sir.

From Darren Star, creator of ‘Sex And The City,’ and Robert Harling, writer of ‘Steel Magnolias,’ comes a deliciously fun, wicked new drama that shows you can go home again…but only if you’re ready to face the sins of your past.

Back in high school, original mean girl Amanda Vaughn (Leslie Bibb) mercilessly tormented her less attractive classmates. Twenty years later, after her hubby is busted for a Ponzi scheme – and meets his maker in a particularly scandalous way – a disgraced Amanda is back in Dallas to start life anew under her mother’s (Annie Potts) palatial roof.

But will the good women of her hometown welcome her with open arms or dole out some kick-ass karmic payback? Let’s just say, hell hath no fury like the cosmetically enhanced!

“GCB” stars Leslie Bibb, Kristin Chenoweth, Annie Potts, Jennifer Aspen, Miriam Shor, Marisol Nichols, David James Elliott, Mark Deklin and Brad Beyer.  Released in a three-disc DVD set.
