Ummm You're A Teacher???

There seems to be a new trend among teenage dramas. Here's the set-up to the the new theme. There's a girl in a bar, a guy walks in, they have instant chemistry, they kiss, she goes to school and surprise he's the new teacher and she's a student. Yes folks, this is going on in two different shows. We all first saw it on the ABCFamily's hit summer show Pretty Little Liars and last night we saw it on the CW's Life Unexpected. When I saw that "Erik" was the new teacher at Lux's teacher, my instant reaction was they are copying Pretty Little Liars. I have a feeling we can all predict what is going to happen next on Life Unexpected especially if you've watched Pretty Little Liars. What do you think? You know it's wrong, yet you find yourself rooting for the couples. Aren't Aria and Ezra destined to be together??? Maybe this works because they didn't know who each other were before they discovered one was a student and the other a teacher. Who knows. This goes to show that there are some things that work for television that do not fly in real life. We shall just have to wait and see.
