MTV: Life Unexpected RECAP
Mar 30th
Question: Why would Baze date Cate’s (awful) sister?
Answer: She teaches yoga in an “I’d Tap That” tee-shirt, eats faux-nuts (!!???!!), forces her red-string beliefs on others, moves her personal belongings into Baze’s apartment way too fast and imposes on his roomies. Bottomline: Abby sucks. But Lux saw Baze hook-up with Abby and he wants to prove to his daughter that he is not a one-night-stand kind of dad. So he sticks it out and tries to make a relationship where a relationship should never have been made. Seeing the error in his logic of dating his daughter’s aunt, Baze ends it with Abby.
Question: Where was Bug?
Answer: Bug enjoyed a quiet evening in, watching the storm, playing suck-and-blow alone and eating dry ramen noodles.

The Portland Mercury: Life Unexpected Music
Mar 23rd
Life Unexpected is a program on the CW (Mondays, 8pm) that just so happens to take place in our fair city. In addition to all the teenage drama that unfolds, the show is loaded with references to Portland local music: Red Fang, Dirty Mittens, PDX-Pop Now!, and Horse Feathers, have all been mentioned in previous episodes. Curious to how the Life Unexpected was associated with Portland music, we contacted Wendy Levy, the show’s music supervisor. She was nice enough to answer some quick questions:
How did you come across bands like Dirty Mittens, Red Fang, and the Shaky Hands for Life Unexpected ?
The music reference suggestions come from a wide variety of sources: the writers, producers, and I “pitch” in. When the music is actually played (The Shaky Hands) I make sure that the music is cleared for use and fits our budget.
What sort of research was involved? Did you need to visit Portland in order to see the bands in person? Or is that now all done online?
My research is mostly in reaching out to my contacts in the industry—in this case, the smaller labels and publishers, and asking for music from Portland-based artists. Local artists and managers have also reached out to me and to the production. I also supplement that with some online research.
