It's hard to believe we're almost at the end of the season already. As the remainder of our favorite dramas return from the winter break, reruns will be far and few between -- which makes for an exciting couple of months!
Midseason drama Life Unexpected closes up shop on April 12, followed by Melrose Place (will it be the series finale?) on April 13. A month later (May 13), The Vampire Diaries and Supernatural air what are sure to be thrilling and chilling season finales. Smallville flies to the end of season 9 on May 14, with Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill amping up the drama to new heights on May 17. Finally, 90210 closes out the season with a shocking finale on May 18.

Back in the days of the old WB network, we fell in love with shows such as Gilmore Girls, Dawson's Creek and Everwood because in each cast, we were able to find a little of ourselves (and probably people close to us) in those unforgettable characters. The CW has brought the magic back with Life Unexpected, a series I seem to fall deeper in love with a little more each week.
Britt Robertson portrays Lux in this heart-warming series and I had the good fortune to speak with the adorably bubbly young star about where her character is headed, what we can expect for the remainder of the first season and how well the cast gets along on the set of Life Unexpected...

It's that time of year again for Grey's Anatomy star Katherine Heigl to make her annual plea to leave the television series that helped make her a household name.
According to People, Heigl was due back on the set of the hit TV series on March 1 following a three-month maternity leave, but she never bothered to show up. A source close to EW states that she "was at home and ready to return to work."
In addition to her maternity leave, ABC has allowed Heigl to take quite a bit of time off this season so she could pursue film projects. She has only appeared in a handful of episodes this season and was scheduled to film five more episodes upon her return.
EW also reports that series creator Shonda Rhimes has finally granted Heigl her greatest wish of all -- to be let out of her contract with ABC. Both sides are apparently still hashing out all the details.

Jack Bauer's days of saving the country from terrorists may be coming to an end this May.
Variety reports that 20th Century Fox TV and the Fox network might be planning to finally stop the clock on the once-popular series 24. This news probably doesn't come as much of a surprise for current and former fans of the show who have watched the series suffer both creatively and in the ratings department.
Variety indicated that Fox may be shopping 24 to another network, but the high cost of production and declining ratings doesn't exactly make the show as marketable as it might have been a couple of years ago.
Should the series end this season, what will happen to Jack Bauer and CTU? A couple of years ago, Kiefer Sutherland indicated that a 24 movie was a very likely possibility in the future. As a fan of the show, I think I'd enjoy seeing Jack Bauer in action up on the big screen. What do you all think? Sound off below!
