Sherri Shepherd’s personal life hit the gossip rags after her ex-husband cheated on her and got another woman pregnant. Now The View hostess is turning public humiliation into a paycheck with the new Lifetime sitcom, Sherri. I’m no Sherri Shepherd Stan, but I never miss an opportunity to discuss my childhood crush, Malcolm Jamal Warner, who’s been reduced to the role of said cheating dog on the show.

Sherri centers around a newly single mom, paralegal, and part-time comedienne/actress trying to get back into the dating scene after a messy divorce. A sneak peek week of Sherri kicks off Monday, October 5 @ 7PM, before officially taking its home on Lifetime Tuesdays @ 10PM October 13.
