'Escaping the Madhouse: The Nellie Bly Story' Premieres January 19, Stars Christina Ricci, Judith Light & Josh Bowman

Lifetime premieres the psychological thriller Escaping the Madhouse: The Nellie Bly Story, on Saturday, January 19, 2019 at 8 pm ET/PT. Starring Golden Globe and Emmy nominated actress Christina Ricci (Monster) as 19th century pioneering journalist Elizabeth Cochran Seaman who published under the name of Nellie Bly, the Lifetime feature movie is inspired by her undercover stay at the impenetrable Women's Lunatic Asylum on New York's Blackwell's island. Two-time Tony and Emmy Award-winner and Golden Globe nominee Judith Light (Transparent, One Life to Live) stars as Matron Grady, the head nurse who tortured her patients into submission while Josh Bowman (Revenge) takes on the role of Dr. Josiah. This marks Ricci's return to Lifetime following her SAG nominated performance in the limited series, The Lizzie Borden Chronicles and the prequel movie, Lizzie Borden Took An Axe.

On a mission to expose the deplorable conditions and mistreatment of patients at the notorious Women's Lunatic Asylum, investigative reporter Nellie Bly (Ricci) feigns mental illness in order to be institutionalized to report from the inside. The movie delivers an intense and fictionalized account of actual events surrounding Nellie's stay beginning after Nellie has undergone treatment, leaving her with no recollection of how she came to the asylum or her real identity. Nellie's unwillingness to submit to authority results in unspeakable torture at the hands of the head nurse, Matron Grady (Light). When Nellie captures the attention of Dr. Josiah (Bowman) who tries to help her, Grady's barbaric tactics only intensify, leading Nellie to questions if she actually does belong in the asylum after all.

Lifetime Cancels 'Devious Maids' After Four Seasons

Susan Lucci gave viewers many laughs as Genevieve Delatour.

All My Children's Erica Kane was the role of a lifetime for Daytime Emmy-winning actress Susan Lucci, but she proved that she can shine just as bright in primetime with her hilarious performance as Genevieve Delatour in Lifetime's Devious Maids. Sadly, the network has announced it is canceling the series after four seasons.

The comedy-drama hailed from Desperate Housewives executive producer Marc Cherry. He originally developed the show for ABC, but Lifetime picked up the ABC Studios-produced drama to series after the network passed in 2012. Former The Young and the Restless star Eva Longoria also exec produced the show, and had directed on the series.

Lucci, Ana Ortiz, Dania Ramirez, Roselyn Sanchez, Judy Reyes, Rebecca Wisocky, Tom Irwin and Grant Show starred in the hourlong series for all four seasons.

The cancellation also comes after a major rebranding for the A+E-owned cable network. Earlier this year, Lifetime launched a new on-air look promoting female empowerment and tied to the word "fempire." The campaign is built around younger and edgier programming in the same vein as brilliant drama UnREAL.

'Days of our Lives' Star Jen Lilley to Play a Prosecutor in Lifetime Movie 'Mommy, I Didn’t Do It'

Jen Lilley at the 7th Annual Indie Series Awards in April.
She co-hosted the ceremony with Days co-star Eric Martsolf.

Soap fans may know her as fiercely protective mom and wife Theresa Brady on Days of our Lives, but Jen Lilley is also a big 1980s-90s TV aficionado. She gushed about getting to work with some TV icons from that era while shooting the Lifetime movie, Mommy, I Didn’t Do It.

“Never in my wildest dreams as a kid did I think I’d be working with Winnie Cooper and Urkel…It was fun!” she told Soap Opera Digest.

Not only did she hob knob with those TV legends, some familiar Days and other daytime faces joined her in brining the movie’s intriguing story to life.

“I play the lead prosecutor from the D.A.’s office and Paige Searcy’s character is the one being prosecuted,” Lilley said. She also had lunch with movie co-star Heather Tom (Katie Logan, The Bold and the Beautiful).

Two months ago, Lilley posted a picture to Instagram of herself “geeking out” seated on the couch from the set of '90s TV staple, Full House. Netflix is rebooting that show as Fuller House, leading many to wonder if Lilley will have a role on it. To Twitter musings on this topic, Lilley coyly responded, “#buzzbuzz,” tagging Lachlan Buchanan and Rich Keith in the Tweet. Buchanan (ex-Kyle Abbott, The Young and the Restless) has since confirmed a role on the reboot, and Rich Keith is one of its head writers.

Akbi Khan has been a soap mega-fan for 31 years. She has been writing about them and working to save the soap genre for several years. Last May she got her Master’s in rhetoric and composition, for which she completed a thesis on the Save Our Soaps (SOS) movement and created her own SOS group, thistimeitsforever.org. In her spare time she enjoys spending time with family and friends, activism for various progressive causes, traveling down her spiritual path, rollerskating, going dancing, anything having to do with language or words, and laughing heartily and often, and more.
