  • VIDEO: Amber Tamblyn Previews ABC's Unusuals New Series | Today's News: Our Take | 4/8/2009
    Now that Life on Mars has completed its mission, ABC has a new show leading out of Lost on Wednesday nights: The Unusuals, starring such familiar faces as Amber Tamblyn, Jeremy Renner, Harold Perrineau and Adam Goldberg as quirky homicide detectives working for the NYPD.
