In this finale episode of the relationship series, Pastor Calvin Roberson and Dr. Viviana Coles mentor two unlucky-in-love single men who have been hoping to find their perfect match.

Trapped: The Alex Cooper Story

Sunday, June 6 at 10am/9c

Based on the memoir "Saving Alex," the film follows the harrowing journey of 15-year-old Alex (Addison Holley), who after revealing she was gay to her devout Mormon parents, was sent away and trapped for eight-months in 'conversion therapy,' enduring horrible punishment at the hands of strangers. Against insurmountable odds, Alex was able to escape and went on to become an important activist in the fight to end these cruel practices. Since the premiere of Trapped and with the added attention to Alex's story and others from the movie's debut, Utah has now passed legislation fully banning conversion therapy for minors. Trapped earned a GLAAD Media Award nomination last year.

Trapped: The Alex Cooper Story is produced by SilverScreen Pictures and executive produced by Jeffrey Hunt, Kyle Clark and Lina Wong. Jeffrey Hunt directed from a script by Michelle Paradise.

Prayers for Bobby

Three-time Academy(R) Award nominee Sigourney Weaver stars as Mary Griffith, a profoundly religious wife and mother who began to question her faith after the suicide of her gay son Bobby (Ryan Kelley).

Weaver earned Emmy(R) award, Golden Globe award and Screen Actors Guild award nominations for her emotionally wrenching lead role. The film also received Emmy(R) award 'Outstanding Made for Television Movie' and Producers Guild of America award 'Outstanding Producer of Long-Form Television' nominations and won a GLAAD Media Award. Prayers for Bobby is based on a true story adapted from the landmark Harper Collins book by journalist Leroy Aarons. Dan Butler, Henry Czerny, Austin Nichols and Carly Schroeder also star.
