Friendships are extremely valuable in one's life. When you have a strong connection with someone, it's wonderful, but what if you also happen to look like that person? and the person you resemble is attempting to usurp your place! Sounds psychotic. Lifetime will air 'Single Black Female,' a new psychological thriller set in a net of unhealthy obsession in which one woman strives to mirror the other.

According to Lifetime, "reeling from the death of her beloved father and a difficult breakup, Monica (Raven Goodwin), is ready to move forward with her life as she tries to land the new hosting job for an afternoon talk show. When she hires a new assistant, Simone (Amber Riley), the two quickly become close friends as Simone moves in next door and completely immerses herself in Monica’s life. But underneath her sweet exterior, Simone harbors a dark secret, and as time goes on, cracks in her facade begin to appear. Monica decides to sever ties once and for all with Simone, but Simone has other plans and is determined to take over Monica’s life for good."
