Liz Tigelaar – Life Unexpected

Liz Tigelaar

This week’s guest is writer/producer Liz Tigelaar. Liz grew up in Dallas, Texas and attended high school in Guilford, Connecticut before earning her undergraduate degree from Ithaca College. She got her start right out of college as an assistant on Dawson’s Creek and ended up assisting and being mentored by Winnie Holzman, while working on Once & Again and Wicked.

Liz got her first staffing job on American Dreams, a 60s family drama, and Liz went on to write for television shows such as What about Brian, Dirty Sexy Money, and Brothers and Sisters.  She’s also written numerous young adult novels, including a series called Pretty Tough, which is being adapted as a web series.  Liz has recently created Life Unexpected, a coming of age story about two thirty-somethings, Cate and Baze, who need to grow up and their daughter, Lux, who they gave up at birth.  When Lux gets put back into their custody, she  unexpectedly gets the family she’s always dreamed of.  Life Unexpected premieres January 18, 2010.

Warning – this installment of MIPtalk contains spoilers for the premiere episode of Life Unexpected.

To the writers;
You have a chance for a first;
Most people getting married go back briefly to their ex to check if done or not, just before the wedding. Film it and show the story about these going back to base and julia just before the wedding. Play it against society whom does the same thing. They did in my life, but i\’ve never seen this exposed for what it is; Just checking back before moving ahead. Instead you\’ve written a war between Cate and Ryan. Tell the truth of human behavior if you agree…if not…sorry but i know from personal experience…more than one time..
