Jamie Ray Newman Joins ‘Life Unexpected’

This just in from E!Online: the co-star of one of our much-mourned faves around here, “Eastwick”, will be seen in the second season of the CW’s “Life Unexpected“. Jamie Ray Newman, who played Kat Gardner on the show, will be making waves between Cate and Ryan in the new season airing  Sept. 14.

In a spoiler dropped by show runner Liz Tagelaar, “We [introduce] Julia in the premiere, and then we let Cate and Ryan go on with their lives for a little bit. But her name starts coming up again, and Cate’s confused about who this person is. We’ll actually see some flashbacks of who this person is, and how she knows Ryan.”  You didn’t think Ryan was an angel before Cate came back into his life, did you?

Tagelaar tells E!, “Julia’s a person who was an integral person in Ryan’s past. He’s moved on and is with Cate, but in the course of season one she reappeared and there are repercussions of that. She’s definitely lightly threaded into the first 13, and if we get a back nine, she’ll be back. She be a character who’s going to stir some stuff up for them.”

Watch the season premiere Tuesday, Sept. 14, at 9/8 central, on the CW.
