"Life Unexpected" Acting Wholesome

Check out this video from Entertainment Weekly featuring the cast of Life Unexpected behind the scenes. You've gotta love a show that doesn't take itself too seriously!

While we're on the subject, what do you people think of Life Unexpected so far this season? In my humble opinion, the series hasn't been as great as last season, which was still admittedly rocky, but there are some very interesting character developments abounding this year. For instance, I love seeing Lux finally warming up to being a regular teenager. I don't like storylines where students pursue teachers and vice versa (I'm looking at you, Pretty Little Liars), but I think it's consistent with the character that she would take something that's a normal high school experience for a lot of people (e.g., having a crush on an older guy/teacher), and turn it into a viable possibility in her mind. She's sort of stuck between trying to be a regular high school student and trying to be older than she is. It's fascinating!

The show isn't amazing at the moment, but it's still imminently watchable and I really enjoy the old-school WB feel. That's my two cents.

  1. That video was hilarious. It makes me wish the show were a comedy, because the cast could definitely pull it off.

    Confession: I sort of like plots where there are sparks between a girl and her teacher. I don't know why. I know it's totally wrong and cliche, but I like it.

  2. They should do a comedy episode to stir the pot a little bit. That show needs to rally.

    I always feel bad when I like those kinds of plots, because no matter how hot or young the teacher is, it's still just so wrong!
