Another reader mailbag column today, in which I again stand by my “Sopranos” finale theory, respond to complaints that “The Pacific” isn’t really showing the entire story of the Pacific theater, and help out what must be one of The Star-Ledger’s oldest readers with...

In today’s column, I review “Life Unexpected,” which I enjoyed largely because of how it reminded me of the old WB shows I used to like. No time for a separate blog post to run after tonight’s premiere, so feel free to talk about it here. Here is the original:  ‘Life...
