Can the Jamie Lynn Spears pregnancy drama help bring viewers to ABC Family's The Secret Life of the American Teenager. Will it help that Miley Cyrus behaves like a traditional teenager in America but gets grief for her racy photos and her wild behavior because she is a role model to very young girls? Will Miley Cyrus and Jamie Lynn be watching?

The show airs on July 1st on the ABC Family Channel and thanks so young teen stars like Miley Cyrus and Jamie Lynn Spears (And others like Zac Efron and Vanessa Hudgens) the American entertainment dollar gets some very good attention from a rather substantial tween base. The show will air on Tuesday night's each week over the summer and starts off with a bang.


Like Jamie Lynn Spears a young teenager named Amy (played by Shailene Woodley) finds out that she is pregnant. Here's a taste of a review from people magazine about the show. "The show does manage to anchor a standard high-school soap opera plot with psychological realism and fair-mindedness to all its characters, and that's a fresh note. Grace (Megan Park), a devout religious girl who looks like Hayden Panettiere and is saving herself for marriage, isn't reduced to an easy joke about hypocrisy."

Continuing: "Ricky (Darn Kagasoff), the cute guy who seduces anyone he can, isn't just a sleaze bagging trophies; he's trying to understand his compulsion in therapy. The teen with the biggest secret is Amy, a thoughtful, mousily pretty girl who's gotten pregnant at band camp. She's played by Shailene Woodley with the right touch of fragility and none of the sardonic slouch of Ellen Page in June (Molly Ringwald, but the way, plays her mom.)" I think I'll watch.
