   My mother was telling me about how she and her family got their first television when she was a teenager. Of course, it was black and white. She said she only watched it at night. When I was young, we had only about 3 or 4 different channels. My brothers, my sisters and I would sometimes fight about which channel to watch. But we usually enjoyed the same shows.

   Nowadays, we can get hundreds of channels on TV. There are channels with old movies, cooking, fishing and so on. It's amazing! I wonder how much my brothers, my sisters and I would fight if we had hundreds of channels when I was a child. Of course, we had only one television set. These days I notice families with 2 or 3 or more television sets in their homes. I guess it stops people from arguing over which channel to choose.

{#blank#}1{#/blank#} Yasmine Bleeth acts as Jackie Ivers, a Los Angeles nurse who moves back to her hometown, San Vicente, California. She soon notices that her friends and family are acting strangely. She realizes that everyone who goes into the town's lake comes out acting differently.

{#blank#}2{#/blank#} Jackie figures out what's going on. Aliens live on another planet. It's like Earth, but it's polluted, so the aliens can't live there much longer. They are planning to replace people on Earth, and they enter Earth through the lake. When someone goes into the lake, an alien takes over that person's body.

{#blank#}3{#/blank#} The Lake is an entertaining science fiction movie. It's a movie that was made for TV, and it's surprisingly good for a TV movie. There is plenty of action to keep viewers on their seats.

{#blank#}4{#/blank#} Yasmine Bleeth's performance is OK as the nurse and main character of the story. The other actors are also all right. But the best performance of the movie is from Haley Joel Osment. He was only 10 years old at that time. He later became when started in the movie The Sixth Sense with Bruce Wills

{#blank#}5{#/blank#} My only idea is that some of the characters are slow to figure out what's going on. It's disappointing because it makes the characters not very believable. The viewer figures out th truth long before the characters do.
