Life Unexpected

The only episode I hated was the last episode. I wanted to be part of the characters lives for another couple of seasons and the abrupt ending really upset me.

The show managed to deal with really sensitive and emotional content without losing my interest. They were able to make me feel sorry, sad, hopeful, angry and helpless in many cases all in the same episode.

How a show this good can fall through the cracks and fizzle out after two seasons is beyond me.

I really wanted to go through the rest of Luxes journey to adulthood with her. I loved her character and am going to miss her.

Love the show. At the moment, there aren't many other shows like this on TV. Mainly crime, or shows like gossip girl, and although they are good in their own right, this adds something different to the mix. It is comparable to Gilmore girls, in my opinion. The acting is good and the script is fantastic. It is a family friendly show, early teens and adults alike can enjoy it.There have only been a few episodes of the show released, but I look forward to the next one each week. It's rare for me to anticipate the next episode for shows, as many of the better ones get cancelled so here's to hoping there are many more seasons to come.

When I first heard this show being compared to Juno and Gilmore Girls, I had to give it a chance. I was kind of expecting it to be a show TRYING to be like Juno and Gilmore Girls, and that was going to be obvious in the worst possible way, but I couldn't resist watching it.

And now I'm hooked. In the best possible way. Life Unexpected has succeeded in being it's own show, although I do think the comparisons are appropriate. Despite the plot being the main selling point in the commercials, it is a very character-driven show (which is good, because how slowly can you burn out the "just met my daughter" thing? Not very slowly...) One complaint I did have, though, is that it cheeses out at the end of almost every episode. This can be looked at two ways. One being that it's cheesy, and the other being that each episode is like it's own little movie, and while connected to the whole series, independent. I love movies. So I chose the second way and now I love that, too.

All in all, Life Unexpected is a really good show. It's been a while since I've seen one of those and I'm so excited to get a new hour of it every week.

I think they really really really need to bring this show back I am still watching 10 years on let's make it happen it helped me so much I was in a dark time and the show made me happy.

Well made and well acted. It's a shame they didn't get a third series. The pilot works really well as a stand alone episode and could have been a TV movie. It is after all a drama not a documentary, I'm amazed at complaints about it being "unrealistic". It's no less realistic that One Tree Hill, The OC, Gilmore Girls or a plethora of other similar drama series. Switched at Birth became increasingly unrealistic, but managed to survive for 7 seasons by ramming "Deaf Culture" down everyone's throats, and rode the diversity ticket.

In fairness I think it could have run for a 3rd series without starting to get silly and desperate for plot lines. But at least they managed to wrap it all up quickly at the end of the last episode.

My only real complaint would be the "Bug" character was just irritating and got in the way of the story.
