You already know Melissa Joan Hart as a teenage witch — now get to know her as a helicopter mom in the newest Lifetime thriller Killing the Competition, premiering tonight, March 1, at 8pm Eastern Time on Lifetime.
Directed by Lee Gabiana (Gaslit by My Husband: The Morgan Metzer Story), the pulpy title sees Hart — who is also an executive producer on the project with her company Hartbreak Films — as Elizabeth Fenwick, a loving fortysomething mother who continues to envision herself as the effortless star dancer and high school prom queen she once was. She unsurprisingly has the same high standards for her teenage daughter Grace (played by Lily Brooks O’Briant), but when the girl gets cut from the dance team at Elizabeth's alma mater, mom's overbearing antics turn criminal.
