Though Fall 2010 may have been a bad season for new shows, there are at least one or two gems that have stood out. Many of you have declared your love for The Walking Dead and Hawaii Five-0 (remember this reader's passionate post?), but don't forget we had a few series debut earlier this year too! Give this list a look, and select your favorite of the Freshmen.

The following excerpt was written by ShaynaLeah on OnSugar blog Life Forward.
I've never felt the need to campaign particularly hard for a television show to be saved (though I was pretty bummed when Moonlight was canceled as a casualty of the 2008 writers' strike), but today's rumor that Life Unexpected may not be picked up for another season has me stricken for a whole slew of reasons (and only one is that its cast includes the adorable Shaun Sipos, formerly of the ill-fated "new" Melrose Place).
The top six reasons to watch the free episodes online to catch up and start watching Life Unexpected on Tuesdays on the CW:

According to insiders, the CW won't be picking up additional episodes of the drama Life Unexpected. An adaptation of The Secret Circle, the book series by The Vampire Diaries author L.J. Smith, is rumored to serve as its midseason replacement. Even though many of you have supported LUX, the show has fallen victim to weak ratings. The network isn't using the word "canceled" just yet, but unless LUX starts nabbing more viewers, it's finished. Start saying your goodbyes now in the comments.

Life Unexpected is about to be invaded — by its Tuesday night lineup neighbor One Tree Hill! On tonight's episode, two characters from OTH, Haley and Mia, pay a visit to Portland for a music festival put on by the radio station. As you can see, Haley and Cate will probably be doing some bonding (over motherhood? Having it all?) while Haley and Mia also perform at the festival. They're not the only fun guest stars that week on Life Unexpected, either: real-life musicians Sarah McLachlan and Ben Lee also appear for some onstage time.

Networks are slowly rolling out new Fall TV episodes, but The CW has already kicked things into high gear. Tonight, the fun continues with returning favorites Life Unexpected and One Tree Hill. Both series were on the chopping block last season, so they'll need fans to show the love. I'm firmly on board the LUX train, and I'll definitely be tuning in tonight after this sneak peek. I'm a little more on the fence regarding OTH, but you all gave me so many great reasons to watch, I may just have to revisit the long-running show.

The CW's Life Unexpected fought the good fight to get a second season, and I'm giving you die-hard fans your first peek. Just because Cate and Ryan are married now, don't expect the drama to end: Baze ends up in the hospital, Cate gets fired, and Lux gets a flirty look from a new suitor (hint: it's Melrose Place's Shaun Sipos). The real question is: can Life Unexpected pick up enough steam to hang on to its place in the CW lineup?

It's July! That means we're halfway through 2010 and, therefore, halfway through the movies, TV, and music that the year has to offer. I've been reminiscing to sift through my favorites so far, and though it wasn't easy, I've come up with my top six. That's two albums, two films, and two new shows that caught my attention (one for each month!). Take a look and tell me what's been an entertainment highpoint for you this year.
Huzzah! Upfronts news continues to roll in, and The CW has mostly good news: Life Unexpected has been renewed (thanks for listening, CW!), along with veteran series One Tree Hill.
It also picked up two new ones: Hellcats and Nikita (stay tuned for in-depth descriptions of those shows). Alas, not every show was so lucky — Melrose Place has officially been canceled.

The CW scored with midseason family drama Life Unexpected, and Buzz readers in particular have championed the show throughout its run. Now that the season finale has aired, I asked you to tell me why you thought Life Unexpected deserved a second season, and boy, did you guys have a lot to say! Check out some great arguments from Buzz readers:

Life Unexpected wrapped its debut season last night, ending with a bang as Cate and Ryan finally tied the knot. The show has a well-rounded, watchable cast, and though sometimes it's a little too sweet for its own good, I certainly don't think it deserves to be on the chopping block like some other shows.
But alas, I'm having flashbacks to last Spring when Privileged was in danger, and eventually canceled. Maybe it's just not in the cards for the more wholesome family-type shows to last among the ranks of Vampire Diaries and Gossip Girl. Normally, this is where I'd give you my own reasons why The CW should save the show, but I know there's a lot of Life Unexpected fans out there. So sound off: why do you think the show deserves a second season?
