Hey J-14ers,

So I was a little skeptical when I first heard about Life Unexpected. Juno was never a fave flick of mine (I know, I know...) but Gilmore Girls is my absolute fave TV show ever. The premise of this new show on The CW, which was also the home of GG, just sounded like the opposite show on the same channel.

But I'm glad I watched because I absolutely loved the first episode. Usually it takes a bit to get into the pilot since you have to get to know all about the characters, but Lux, Cate Cassidy, and Nate "Baze" Bazile were so well-written that I felt like I knew them the second they appeared on screen. I was also a big Dawson's Creek fan back in the day, so seeing Kerr Smith play Cate's BF wasn't so bad either.

If there's one thing you should look out for, it's Britt Robertson. She stole the screen as Cara, Steve Carell's oldest daughter in 2007's Dan In Real Life, and she's completely believable as Lux on Life Unexpected. You'll want to be her BFF -- or at least laugh with her as she watches funny YouTube clips.

I'm psyched for tonight's new episode! So tell me, have you been tuning in?

Name: Michael Cera
 
Age: 21
 
Where to see him: Going back to prehistoric times in Year One with Jack Black, which just hit theaters yesterday!
 
Why we love him: Forget JT... Michael is bringin' nerdy back! To watch Michael in a movie is to love him, we can't help it! In every movie he captures our hearts with his adorable awkwardness. In his free time, this boy-next-door charmer plays piano and guitar, which he showed off in 2007's Juno. Sure, he's not the hottest guy in Hollywood, but he is the most sincere and can make a girl laugh without saying a single word. Though he doesn't kiss and tell, he's dating his Paper Heart (out later this summer) co-star Charlyne Yi.
 
He talks about... his looks: "If you stood me in line with all my ex-girlfriends and asked who's more attractive, it's always them."

Now we want to hear from YOU, J-14ers! Do you think Michael is HOT or NOT? Let us know in the comments below!
