Mercedes Ruehl plays Sylvia Guerrero and JD Pardo plays Gwen Araujo in "A Girl Like Me: The Gwen Araujo Story" which will premiere on the Lifetime channel on Monday, June 19th at 9pm EST (check local listings as well as the Lifetime website for repeat performances).Lifetime, which has been tagged "television for women" from time to time, has been known for dumbing down 'real-life' stories and making them as bland as milque-toast (think: after-school specials).
Let's hope that they surprise us with their take on Gwen's life and death.
