Here\u2019s today’s dispatch from the crossroads of faith, media and culture.<\/p>\n

“Uplifting Entertainment” network grabs October Baby<\/em>.<\/strong> GMC TV will present the world television premiere of the film starring John Schneider (Dukes of Hazzard, Smallville<\/em>), Jasmine Guy (A Different World<\/em>), Jason Burkey and newcomer Rachel Hendrix as a college freshman\/abortion survivor<\/a> who sets out on a search for her birth mother.\u00a0 The movie is set for Sunday, October 14 at 7, 9 and 11 p.m., with encore broadcasts on Sunday, October 21 at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.\u00a0 All times are eastern.<\/p>\n

For those of you who may not know the story, here’s the synopsis: When Hannah (Rachel Hendrix), suddenly collapses on stage during a production, she confronts her parents about her health-challenged medical history. She discovers that she is the survivor of a late-term abortion and that her parents, Jacob and Grace (John Schneider and Jennifer Price) are actually her adopted parents.\u00a0 Shell-shocked, she decides to go on a road trip with her friends but detours from the group with her long-time pal and confidant, Jason (Jason Burkey), to track down her biological mother (Shari Rigby).\u00a0 Jasmine Guy (Nurse Mary) stars as the nurse who witnessed Hannah\u2019s birth years<\/em> before.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve written, produced or directed hundreds of millions of dollars of successful Hollywood content and I\u2019ve never seen a more profound reaction to a movie,\u201d says Dave Alan Johnson<\/a> (whose TV credits include PAX-TV’s Doc<\/em>) about the film he executive produced.\u00a0 \u201cThe cast is powerful, with a \u2018tour de force\u2019 performance from newcomer Rachel Hendrix. Jon and Andy Erwin are major talents and have directed a very compelling and entertaining movie.\u201d<\/p>\n

GMC TV can be seen in more than 56 million homes on various cable systems around the country, as well as DISH Network on channel 188, DIRECTV on channel 338 and Verizon FiOS on channel 224.<\/p>\n
