Member Rating:  
This TV movie stars Stockard Channing as an "ugly duckling" who is dumped on by everyone with whom she comes in contact. After her heart is broken by a callous campus jock, Stockard tearfully speeds off in her car and is involved in a serious accident. Plastic surgery is required, and when Ms. Channing emerges from behind the bandages, she is ravishingly beautiful. She uses her new attractiveness to exact revenge on those who'd wronged her, murdering her former nemeses in a variety of creative ways (for example, she entices a nasty cheerleader to back-flip out of a high rise window). Police inspector Ed Asner is called on the scene when the death rate soars, only to find himself falling in love with the crafty Ms. Channing. Despite its morbid plotline, The Girl Most Likely To... is actually a comedy, written by none other than Joan Rivers. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

    Firstly, Stockard Channing is the best. Secondly, Joan Rivers writes a terrific dark comedy. Finally, this is brilliant! Right up there with the likes of Best in Show! I remember watching this show as a child, probably 7 or 8 years old and I NEVER thought I'd ever see it again...33 years later...FUNNY as ever.

    I have remembered this movie since childhood and was thrilled to see it available. I had no idea that Joan Rivers wrote the story, but her humor was all over the movie. Stockard Channing was perfect for the role. I recommend to anyone who believes "what goes around comes around."

    I'm glad this was finally released, as I remember watching this movie on TV in the mid 70's. My wife and I both laughed hysterically at the dark humor, which Stockard Channing does extremely well. Anyone who's suffered low self-esteem when young because of thinking they are not pretty enough can relate to this, as well as those who like those transformation shows like Povich. Now we know what's driving all that plastic surgery. Kudos to Joan Rivers for writing this one.
