Looks like there will be more life for fan favorite bubble series One Tree Hill and Life Unexpected! Rumors are swirling that both series will get half seasons on the CW's 2010-11 lineup, and a well-placed insider just told me:

"It isn't yet official, but it sure looks like it."

The CW will announce its fall schedule—and the status of these two shows—this Thursday.

Meanwhile, I just ran into OTH newlywed superstar Danneel Harris, who hit the NBC press line here at the New York upfronts to promote her new series, Friends With Benefits, just two days after marrying Supernatural hottie Jensen Ackles.

"It was gorgeous," she told us of her wedding in a blissfully newlywed way. "It was fun. It turned into this huge Southern riot by the end of the night. Everybody danced. I danced for like, four hours. It was incredible."

As for hopping on a plane to attend upfronts right after her nuptials, Daneel has no complaints. "Donald Trump is at my honeymoon!" she laughed. "Everybody dressed up. It's fabulous. Thank you, NBC." (Don't worry, her new hubby is with her on the trip, hanging out at the hote and having a "spa day," she joked.)

Follow me on Twitter for constant updates from NYC upfronts. (I'm in the Fox session right now...with the Glee peeps singing "Like a Prayer" live! I know. I hate me, too.)
