Life UneXpected, touted as the hottest mid-season show in the Unites States is the latest series to premiere on Hallmark Channel, first and exclusively starting June 17, Thursday at 10pm. A light-hearted drama, Life UneXpected is often thought of as a television series that embodies complex family relationship issues, similar to that of the popular coming-of-age movieJuno and TV series Gilmore Girls. More than its rich plotline, Life UneXpected brings to the small screen a one-of-its-kind, witty and heart-warming drama about life and the twisty road it sometimes takes.
Life UneXpected revolves around three most unlikely individuals who are placed together to form a family. Britt Robertson (Dan in Real Life, Swingtown) stars as 16-year-old orphan, Lux, who sets out to find the parents she never knew in order to gain emancipation from them. Her father, Nathaniel “Baze” Bazile (Kristoffer Polaha, Mad Men), a bar owner, is still an overgrown teenager in an adult’s body. Her mother, Cate Cassidy (Shiri Appleby, Swimfan, Charlie Wilson’s War), is a successful but commitment-phobic radio discjockey, who has in tow a secret fiancé in her co-host, Ryan Thomas (Kerr Smith, Dawson’s Creek).
In a twist of fate, their lives intertwine as a judge grants temporary custody of Lux to parents Cate and Baze. It becomes an emotionally-engaging journey of love, life, hope and uncertainty, as Lux is steeped deep into family life together with her emotional scars of being an orphan. At the same time, her young, untrained parents are trying to provide their best for a 16-year-old teenager amidst their own problems. Cate not only has to juggle her work and personal relationship with fiancé, Ryan, but also her ambiguous relationship with Baze, and of course, learning to become the mother she never was, with Lux.
Life UneXpected pulls away from the norm to give viewers a refreshing and insightful look at the unwanted child in question, 16 years later. Gaining raving reviews in the US for its premiere season, the New York Daily News lauded Life UneXpected as “TV pleasure unexpected”. Be sure to watch this critically-acclaimed series and get a piece of family warmth in the exclusive Asia premiere of Life UneXpected this June, only on the Hallmark Channel.
