I loved the fact that Patty Duke made peace with this show, as it was produced during the very worst time in her personal life. I eagerly awaited this movie as I wanted to see the Lanes back together, if just for one night, but it wasn't very memorable and I really cringed when I heard that Patty and Richard were divorced.
HOLY LIFETIME TELEVISION! I would guess making the transition into the 1990's had to include a statement about how self-sufficient women don't need men in their lives, etc. - Such tripe! The timing in the delivery of the dialogue was truck-driver city - it was as if they were giving the viewing audience time to laugh hysterically, slap their knees, as well as their children, and guess what - there was no laughter.
You could lose your mind - when bad teleplays are two(thousand) of a kind!
