Premise

Despite objections from many of her family and friends, a thirty-something Italian woman (Lydia) in New Jersey  breaks off her engagement to fulfill her lifelong dream of going to college

Familiar Faces

Heather Paige Kent (Stark Raving Mad), Ellen Burstyn, Debi Mazar (Working), Paul Sorvino

Our Take

That’s Life is an odd choice for its time slot considering that (despite strong support from the critics), 8-9pm Saturday night doomed Freaks and Geeks.  Additionally, this show does not really fit in with the rest of the CBS Saturday night lineup
