  • who are Andrew and Britney Juergens anyhow?!

  • I just saw the new ep! I really thought Amy was gonna be pregos again! Maybe they will have her pregnant next season! Usually when a show starts based around something the writers usually make it happen again to get more viewers and to make the show more exciting. I will be surprised if Amy doesnt get pregnant again before the show ends. And yes they said they are renewed for a fifth season, which will probably be the last :( Im sure the finale of the fifth season will be their wedding. Maybe they will anounce her pregos at this finale...btw this is still the fourth season. Because if they announce her prego at this seasons finale they could start the next season as her 9 months pregnant you know...What do you think? And I hate the way they end it too..but thats how they know the viewers will be back next week!

  • I hate when they end the episode like this. I wonder why the love to keep the audience in suspense? Cannot still believe what happened in today's episode which I watched on http://secretlifeofamerican.weebly.com/

  • andrew and britney allready got merried and are having twins

  • season 4 is the best so far!!! Are they going to make a season 5???? ahh i hope so i want to see amy and ricky get married!!!

  • I LOVE!!!!!!!!! this season

  • i think season 4 has been the most drama filled season so far

    • Agreed. There is the most drama between Ricky and Amy since the drama in the first season. They are a great match. Hope we get to see them get married and start living a married life as a family
