Life Unexpected

Life Unexpected è una serie televisiva statunitense di genere family drama, trasmessa sul canale The CW a partire dal 18 gennaio 2010. In corso di produzione, la serie ha più volte cambiato titolo: presentata come Light Years ad inizio 2009, è stata poi chiamata LUX nell'aprile successivo. Rinominata poi Life Unexpected, è stata però presentata agli upfronts di maggio con il titolo Parental Discretion Advised. Un mese dopo, The CW ha riportato la serie al titolo precedente, ma con una grafia leggermente diversa (Life UneXpected), fino ad arrivare al titolo attuale. In Italia è inedita.
Questa serie andrà in onda in chiaro su RaiDue a partire da settembre 2010 ogni sabato pomeriggio.

Life Unexpected is a television series which premiered on The CW on Monday, January 18, 2010. The 13-episode first season run ended on April 12, 2010. On May 18, The CW announced that the series had been picked up for a second season[1] to air on Tuesdays at 9/8c following One Tree Hill.
Life Unexpected is produced by Mojo Films in association with CBS Television Studios and Warner Bros. Television with executive producers Liz Tigelaar (Brothers and Sisters, What About Brian), Janet Leahy (Boston Legal, Gilmore Girls), and Gary Fleder (October Road). Gary Fleder directed the pilot.
The CW announced the series in January 2009 under the working title of Light Years.[3] According to Tigelaar, the title "tested way too sci-fi"[4] and it was changed to LUX (the name of one of the lead characters) in April. This was quickly changed again into Life Unexpected, but at The CW Upfronts in May, the series was promoted as Parental Discretion Advised.[5][6] That June, the network reverted to the name Life UneXpected, again highlighting the name of the main character in capital letters. Initial advertising for the series in fall 2009 listed it without the capitalized "X", which became the final version as it appears now.
While the show is set in Portland, Oregon, most of the filming is done in Vancouver, British Columbia. Scenes of Westmonte High are filmed at Sutherland Secondary School in North Vancouver. The drinking establishment that serves as the Open bar is located in Vancouver's Granville Island.
