Greetings, gentle readers and fellow travelers of the blogosphere!

Kristoffer Polaha here in the last week of October with a special rerun-episode blog. Last week we left off with things heading south for Cate and Ryan, while passions were heating up for Baze and Emma. Lux is all tangled up with Eric, and Math is, well, where was Math last week?

How about a tease for the upcoming new episode: The gang is heading into the woods...

Hello fellow travelers, Kris Polaha here, and I'm back again with my very special guest, Life Unexpected's Miss Shiri Appleby, all the way from sunny Vancouver, B.C. I asked Shiri if she'd like to be interviewed for my E! Online blog, and she was very cool about it. We had a lot of fun working on this week's entry, sitting around her computer—the very same computer she uses to post the on-set photographs that get posted to our Facebook page (check it out!)—and hashing this out over a couple of hours.

So, here it is, my loyal readers, the first ever Polaha-Appleby interview (cue trumpet fanfare!):

ABC/ERIC MCCANDLESS

• Fall TV: ABC's No Ordinary Family, one of fall's least-doomed new shows, has gotten an order for four more scripts from the Alphabet net. Meanwhile, our beloved little Life Unexpected got a request for two more scripts from the CW. Yay!

• Grey's Anatomy: You want to give us more Kevin McKidd, Jesse "Hotness Monster" Williams and Sarah Drew? Oh, OK, fine. (Just kidding. We are positively delighted to hear that those three actors are starring in new Grey's Anatomy webisodes, which premiere tonight on ABC.com.)

• The Vampire Diaries: One of your least-favorite Supernatural actors ever, Lauren Cohan (Bella), is joining TVD as a potential vampy love interest for Damon (Ian Somerhalder).

Melanie: I can't believe the Mad Men finale is Sunday. Do you have any scoop?

Hello, fellow travelers of the blogosphere! Kristoffer Polaha here with this week's lifting of the veil, a peek behind the curtain of Life Unexpected. What will we find? Who knows, but I do know this, I am writing this from my new iPad, sitting in a hotel room in Seattle...

Well, that and the fact that tonight was the awesome Life Unexpected-One Tree Hill crossover episode!

Fun fact: Cate from Life Unexpected and Haley from One Tree Hill are totally sisters!

Sisters from another mister, anyway.

So says LUX boss Liz Tigelaar, who gave us the dish on tonight's much-hyped (for good reason) crossover between LUX and OTH.

All right E! peeps, Kris Polaha back with another entry for the blogosphere. This week in the spotlight is our very own Mr. Austin Basis, who plays Math, the lovable English teacher, fan favorite and my roommate/best friend on Life Unexpected.

Now before we get to Austin I'd like to meander through the events of the week. Fall has settled in and the northwest has become chilly, yet the sun still shines. We are catching up to LUX time in real time, meaning that the show takes place in LUX time, and soon the fall season and season two will align, like two passing planets in our night sky, which is kinda fun to think about. (I will let you in on a little secret, LUX time goes much slower than real time.)

Speaking of Austin, he and his girlfriend invited us apple picking this weekend. We fired off a corn cannon, picked pumpkins and apples with my kids, watched the little ones ride horses, in short, we welcomed in autumn East Coast-style, and it was awesome. So, happy fall everyone! Now let's get on with the interview!

Life Unexpected, the CW's little gem of a family drama, has folded some fresh faces into its second season, and the show's big boss Liz Tigelaar is dishing on what you can really expect from wayward bartender babe Arielle Kiebel (Paige), inappropriate teacher Shaun Sipos (Eric) and our personal fave, business bigwig Emma Caulfield (Anya Emma). Sure, these newbies are hooking up with our old faves, but who are they, and can they be trusted? Here's the scoop:
