Life Sentence

Overview

Remember Chasing Life? Girl gets cancer, lives life, had lesbians and bisexuals?

The CW did it with a twist.

When Stella finds out her terminal cancer is cured, she must learn to live with all the choices she made when deciding to live like she was dying, as well as all the new reveals.

Like her mom having a girlfriend. Kind of.

When Stella Abbott received a diagnosis of terminal cancer, she threw caution to the wind by living like there is no tomorrow. Unfortunately, that decision comes back to bite her when her doctors inform her that her illness has miraculously been cured, leaving that good news tainted by the fact she now needs to deal with the fallout from all of the things she did when she thought she was dying.

The show started off strong, but quickly fell into a cycle of “OMG! Secrets!” which everyone but Stella knew, and she had to come to grips with it. Worst of all, the mom flip-flopped on the gay thing a lot, and made out with her ex-husband. I don’t even know…

The ratings were lackluster, and it was shuffled off to the Friday Slot of Death where it indeed died.
