Secret Life Premieres Season 2

After a brief recap of season one, showed Amy Juergens (Shailene Woodley) struggling to care for her newborn son while doing chores around the house and attending school. The teen mother is now living with just her mother Anne (played by Molly Ringwald), who will definitely be pregnant in this season. The actress was expecting twins before filming began, so there was no way to continue her story without including a new baby.

It was just serendipity that the second season of the show opened with the same theme as the first - pregnancy. But this time, it’s the mother and not the daughter who is expecting.

New Season for Secret Life

Posted by K.C. Morgan Categories: Drama, Prime Time, ABC, Cable, Gossip, Renewals

Secret Life of the American TeenagerIn the middle of all the winter reality and new small-screen comedies, ABC Family’s surprise hit will reappear next month. That’s right: is returning Monday, January 5.

The first season was split into two as the show began to create more buzz and excitement. The eleventh episode “Just Say No,” the last to air before the fall break, drew more than four and half million viewers. It’s official: the family drama is a success.

Ten more episodes will now air for the second season, bringing viewers up-to-date on all the relationships, twists and, of course, the status of Amy Jergens (Shailene Woodley) and her as-yet-unborn baby. For those who want a refresher, ABC Family will air the first eleven episodes in an all-day marathon January 4.

Can’t sit in front of the TV that Sunday? The first season of the series will also be available on DVD as of December 30.

The Secret Life of the American Teenager: Review

Amy

The compelling promos, tons of press and Seventh Heaven association might have been enough to rope me into watching the premiere of ABC Family’s , but it was the mere presence of Molly Ringwald in the cast which sealed the deal. And so it was that last night during prime time, I found myself watching cable instead of network TV. I don’t think it was a mistake.

Rollicking pop music kicked off the top of the episode, which immediately plunged its viewers headlong into teen pregnancy. Seriously, the main character Amy (played by Shailene Woodley) was barely introduced (as a marching band member) before she was in the restroom staring at the positive results from a home pregnancy kit. No time wasted here on introductions.

Actually, it felt more than a little forced. The audience was given no time to connect with this character in any way before BAM! she’s knocked up. And then, the beginning credits rolled.
