10:30 Movie "The Lonely Lady"

Oh yes...the infamous Pia Zadora flick. Even though "The Lonely Lady" did the rounds among the America pay networks like HBO and Showtime around the time of these listings, by the late 80s I seem to remember at least one network had yanked this movie from their schedule and made a pledge to their viewers that they will never show the movie ever again. I think it was HBO though it could had been Showtime. The issue? The scene in the "The Lonely Lady" where Pia Zadora is raped by a man using a garden hose which resulted in a real life copycat crime. Soon after that incident a number of film critics like Siskel & Ebert and Leonard Maltin took to their shows and asked that the movie be totally withdrawn from the market including the airing of the movie on pay-cable and being available on home video. Of course by having such people making such a request only resulted in more people who wanted to see the movie ( hardly a surprise ). Even though the movie was available on VHS, I have been told "The Lonely Lady" has yet to be released to DVD so perhaps Siskel & Ebert and Maltin were successful in the long run as "The Lonely Lady" is pretty much a forgotten film today. Even Pia Zadora herself no longer talks about it...at least in interviews anyway.

...who the hell still interviews Pia Zadora??!?...
 
...not so much related to this schedule, but a couple of years later I briefly worked for CKY-TV/7 as a colour commentator for their Saturday afternoon pro wrestling show (Tony Condello's Four West promotion). The weekend I did the most tapings happened to be the 42nd anniversary of the D-Day invasion of Nazi-occupied France, in which (IIRC) Canadian troops made the very first landings. That night, I thought it was particularly odd that, while the late movie on CBWT/6 was The Longest Day, the programming office at Channel 7 had the nerve to run against it the Richard Lester WW2 satire How I Won the War :D ...

I had erased Pia Zadora from my mind until I read this.
