[edit] History
Lifetime Movie Network launched on June 29, 1998. The original format of the network were longer segments of made for television movies with limited commercial interruptions, airing twice a day. As the network grew, more commercial breaks have been added, and slowly the network has added theatrical releases to the schedule. There are now different movies each day, some repeating into the next programming day. The channel rebranded as LMN in 2007, and re-added the full name in mid-2008 in Lifetime Networks's attempt to broaden their brand beyond what it previously had been.
