Read full article: Lifetime's 'The College Admissions Scandal' earns passing grade(CNN) - Described as a "ripped from the headlines" movie, Lifetime's "The College Admissions Scandal" is "inspired by" the Varsity Blues cheating and bribery story, which gets at the truth of the issues in occasionally heavy-handed but overall, kind of delicious fashion.

"The College Admissions Scandal" is the kind of modest, quick-turnaround effort that won't win any prizes; still, in terms of shining a light on that part of the story, it scores a passing grade the old-fashioned way: By earning it. "The College Admissions Scandal" airs Oct. 12 at 8 p.m. on Lifetime.
