Last night was the return of an MTV classic - Teen Mom.
Will Ryan get his act together? Will Catelynn and Tyler get married? How much fake tanner will Amber use this season? All questions awaiting answers Tuesdays at 10/9 central.
Speaking of teenagers making bad decisions, there was a great movie our gym teacher in high school made us watch concerning anorexia and bulimia (way to kill two birds with one stone, Lifetime) - A Secret Between Friends. It became an instant hit in our class. I'm not sure that was the point, but I digress.
After watching the latest world premiere Lifetime movie with my best friend Monday night (I warned you I like bad TV), we got to thinking about Lexi and Jen, and did a little research and found the WHOLE MOVIE ON YOUTUBE. If I didn't have a bed time, I probably would have stayed and watched all of it.
If you went to high school with me, this should take you back.
Who can forget, "Don't you get it?!? I HATE you! I never want to see you again, OK?!?!"
That Jen was a real piece of work. And their matching monogrammed lunch boxes that held celery and rice cakes? The movie was practically a how to for eating disorders.
Might need to read a book tonight.

Good stuff. I can't believe you found that. I wonder what movies they are showing nowadays...
Ealy Nation LOVES Teen Mom (and before that, 16 and Preggo)! I think it's the best show MTV has come up with (besides Newlyweds, obviously).
And don't forget Engaged and Underage!
sweet Lord, how did you remember the title? good times, good times.
I remember that movie...interestingly, we watched it in my gym class, too. I'm pretty sure our instructor thought that watching the movie would open our eyes to the dangers of eating disorders, but as you said, it was practically a how-to! Pretty dangerous ground for a class of impressionable, 14-year-old girls.
CLASSIC! Absolutely one of my favorite movies of all time. Somehow I've mustered the patience not to watch it without you, but we must make a date of that soon. My favorite high school memory of this was when, for years after its premier at BCS, we used to BEG Miss Wilder to let us watch it whenever we had a no-dress-out day. She always looked a little confused and disturbed...
