All for Nick's Convenience

One thing really annoyed me about the movie. Seems like the main reason Tia held back on telling Nick about his baby was to make his life easier and more comfortable. God forbid if his trip to play on the mountains is interrupted by the responsibilities from the new life he helped create.

What was so noble about not wanting Nick to have a bad time when he was an active participant in creating the new responsibility?

To me, Tia comes across as more of a doormat, putz than a self assured business woman.

Life is never fair, and perhaps it is a good thing for most of us that it is not.

You didn't happen to tape it?
lifetime didn't send me a reminder and was interested in seeing it.

thanks

Sorry db73, I did not tape this movie. With the re-designed IMDb, I noticed that when a movie is coming on, it shows near the top of the main page. I don't know how that will help you if you can't get an alert.

Another option is that many online TV schedules allow you to look up future showings of a movie or TV show.

I'm in the middle of this movie at the moment left it on commercial break to post just this same thing! The nerve of this woman to not tell him he has a son! He deserves to know that he has a child. She's treating him like dirt all for her crook of a husband. Really pisses me off. I have yet to finish the movie. I'm at the scene where she has the opportunity to tell him at the diner/ He kisses her and she gives him a horrible look before storing off. Nick was adorable but I think they could have chosen a more believable cast.

In my opinion, any role Jessica Tuck ever plays comes across as more of a doormat, putz than a self assured business woman, or whatever role she happens to be playing. I do not consider her a very good actress at all.
