“Life Unexpected” is one of the best show on TV today. For me, it harkens back to The WB salad days when they were dealing us shows like “Gilmore Girls”, “Dawson’s Creek”, and “Felicity” – snappy dialogue, real characters, and stakes that are grounded in reality.
I happen to know a bit about “Life’s” creator Liz Tigelaar and it’s no surprise that she wrote on two of the three shows mentioned above. In fact, her resumé is chock full of awesome credits and the story of how “Life” leap-frogged over pilots with stronger pedigrees last year is inside-Hollywood legend.
