The Lifetime Movie Drinking Game

If you're not familiar with Lifetime: Television For Women, you should be. Lifetime produces the campiest, most hilarious made for TV movies (for women!) to be had.

I decided it was my God given duty to fill this gap in the drinking game industry. So, without further ado, I present...
