CBS Movie Channel

CBS Movie Channel (formerly known as Lifetime Movie Network or LMN) is a Monasoki basic cable and satellite television network that is owned by the CBS Cable Networks division of CBS Broadcasting.

The channel currently features mostly made-for-television films, as well as some original programming.

The channel was originally launched on June 29, 1998 as Lifetime Movie Network, later being rebranded to LMN, as a spin-off of the main Lifetime network. Like its parent, LMN was geared mostly towards the women demographic. The channel, along with all other networks of A+E, where purchased by CBS Broadcasting on April 30, 2015. CBS will take over ownership on May 1st, while it will take complete control on May 15th. CBS wil relaunch the network as CBS Movie Channel. Instead of showing made-for-TV films, the focus will move towards more theatrically-released films, as well as attempt to attract a larger male audience. Most of the LMN programming approved by the MBS will be moved to Lifetime Real Women, now also under the control of CBS.
