Life Sentence
CW, 9 ET/PT
This new dramedy stars Lucy Hale ( Pretty Little Liars) as Stella, a young woman fighting what she thought was terminal cancer, only to find out that she has been miraculously cured. It's all sunshine and partying until she realizes her family has been lying about their happy lives to keep her spirits up, and she lacks life skills she needs to function as an adult, like education or a job. Tonight's premiere is a charming setup, and Hale is perfect in the role, keeping her character chipper but not annoying.
