Winnie Cooper becomes Inspector Mom

I realize that Danica McKellar is probably sick to death of being called 'Winnie Cooper', but how else was I supposed to get your attention? The actress, famously known for her role on The Wonder Years, will star in a funky online/broadcast experiment for LMN television, a sister network of Lifetime. McKellar will play the title role in Inspector Mom, a movie about a stay-at-home mother who bakes cookies, runs a carpool, and chases down criminals. She's either a 30-something Veronica Mars, or a 30-something Jessica Fletcher.Here's where it gets funky:
The movie version of Inspector Mom airs on November 18th at 8 pm. Then the mystery moves to the internet, LMN.tv, where 8 short video segments will be released through April.
Winnie Cooper -- mystery solver

If you were a fan of The Wonder Years back in the late 1980's and early 1990's, you probably had a bit of a crush on Danica McKellar, who played Winnie Cooper, the on-again, off-again girlfriend of Kevin Arnold (Fred Savage). And, after the show ended in 1993, you probably thought that she would go on to bigger and better things. Instead, she dashed your hopes by dropping out of the entertainment business for a bit while she completed her degree in mathematics from UCLA. She came back recently in shows such as NCIS, How I Met Your Mother, and, in a recurring role, The West Wing. But, that still wasn't enough. You wanted more Danica.
