It's Lucy Hale time. Join Steve and Chris as we explore the first of 2 Lucy Hale shows on the episode one podcast.

What makes a great pilot? and what does a great pilot have that can translate into a long running show? Life Sentence present san interesting answer to these questions, with a unique hook, some interesting characters, but a plot that leaves you wondering: how long can this go on?

We also answer one of the most important questions in entertainment. If Lucy Hale isn't America's sweetheart, then who is?
