'False Accusation" stars Rick Schroder as Doug Quinn, a popular morning radio talk show host who is falsely accused of sexual harassment and defamation by midday deejay Sheri Bridges [Danica McKellar]. Sheri is represented by feminist attorney Gloria Rifkin [Patricia Richardson], while Doug is defended by Melanie Burke [Janine Turner], who, over Ms. Rifkin's objections, manages to get Sheri to admit that it was jealousy that got her to make up lies about Doug. The judge, Madeline Gordon [Corinne Conley] clears Doug of all charges, and orders Sheri to undergo psychological treatment. Doug then invites Ms. Burke to be a regular monthly guest on his show.

Sounds more like a Made-for-TV movie.

That's because it is. I'd call it an anti-Lifetime MOW.
