Fans of Nicole Sullivan have always thought that she is a very talented actress. While Nicole has gotten quite a few good roles over the course of her career, she hadn’t gotten many chances to really show the full range of her acting. However, at the end of 2008, Nicole finally got the opportunity to move from being a supporting character to the center of a show. This opportunity came in the form of the show Rita Rocks. The show debuted on the Lifetime channel.

The lead character that Nicole played on this show was a mom named Rita. Because Rita is always so busy with her kids and her job, she feels like she never has any time for herself. To solve this problem, Rita begins playing the guitar once she finds her old one stored away. This evolves into a weekly event that includes several other people.

One of the interesting things about this show is that it was the first time in over ten years that Lifetime launched its own sitcom. During the course of two seasons, this showed aired a full forty episodes. Although the show had a devoted fan base, it struggled to attain a large number of viewers. As a result, Lifetime made the decision to cancel it after the second season.

While the show was cancelled, that doesn’t mean that it was all bad news for Nicole Sullivan. Not only did the show air in over a dozen different countries other than the US, but the first season was also released on DVD.
