Spoiler: Ask Ausiello

RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!

Question: Were you suggesting that Kristen Bell was in the running to play a young Lily in the Gossip Girl spin-off? — Tara
Ausiello: I was not. I’m actually going to keep quiet about which actress I was referring to until there’s something solid to report. Don’t want to jinx things. Having said that, I’d like to take this opportunity to nominate American Dreams ingénue Brittany Snow for the role. Not only does she have “young Kelly Rutherford” plastered across her forehead, but as she proved on her much-missed NBC drama, she has a timeless quality. (If she can pull off the ’60s, the ’80s oughta be breeze.) Plus, anything that keeps her away from Prom Night 2 has to be a good thing, right? If you agree, please, say so in the comments section. It’s no fun being out on this limb all alone.

Question: Please, I need some Gossip Girl scoop on Blair and Chuck! — Carla
Ausiello: Okay, but I have to warn you, it’s going to make you very angry. Leighton Meester’s real-life beau, Sebastian Stan, will be reprising his role as the shifty Carter Baizen. He’ll appear in the next two original episodes and, per my source, his mission is twofold: to mess with Chuck and hook up with Blair. Don’t shoot the messenger!

Question: I am leaving for France tomorrow for nine days. Could you please give me some Gossip Girl to hold me over? — Rachel
Ausiello: You know Serena’s new grifter beau, Gabriel (Armie Hammer)? She’s met him before — only she can’t remember where or when.

All-Time Favorite Couples Pt. 3

18 02 2009

Part One

Part Two

3. Joey and Pacey (Dawson’s Creek)

When the show began and even through its first two or so seasons, you never would’ve imagined Pacey and Joey paired up together.  Though Pacey once contemplated the idea (in an early season one episode), the idea of them together not only seemed unlikely but also just not…right.  But then season 3 comes along and everything changes: the characters, the storylines, the show.  The season marked a turning point for the series, and the turning point in who my preferred couple was.  As Pacey slowly fell for Joey, longed for her, ached for her, I did too.  I felt Pacey’s urge to be with her, his growing love and loneliness. For anyone who has ever experienced unrequited love–or impossible love–it was impossible not to be touched by the path this storyline took.  Though they broke up at the end of season 4, the bond was unbreakable, the memories unforgettable and the destiny sealed.  With the maturity that only time can bring, Joey and Pacey grew enough to be able to commit to each other once and for all.  While that realization in the series finale was a little rushed, it is satisfying to know that the show did end with them together and I can forever think of them that way.

RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!

Please give me some information about 90210‘s Annie and Ethan. I really like them together, and I am sick of the show messing with all the couples! — Heather
MICKEY: What’s your damage, Heather? (Heh.) Let’s play “I’d rather.” I’d rather date Flip Wilson than Annie Wilson. Fun, right? The tempestuous Annie-Ethan potboiler will be taken off the fire in the near future, as the ladies band together to help a friend in crisis. The solution: A little religion never hurt anyone, right? Unless you’re West Bev’s crown princess of darkness, then it might sting a little.

Is Michael Copon (Felix, One Tree Hill) going to be on Gossip Girl?  He’s doing that thing with his Facebook status again! — Amy
MICKEY: Well, everything on Facebook is true, right? Mazel tov, Michael! Except, IRL, when I shook down my CW source, who is not dissimilar in appearance than that trusty prognosticating Eight Ball, signs pointed to: X-No, X-No.

News Roundup: 90210, One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl and More

18 02 2009
  • 90210 cast members will sit on a special panel at this year’s Paley Festival in California.
  • Both Jennie Garth (Kelly, Beverly Hills 90210) and Mischa Barton (Marissa, The O.C.) made headlines for participating in Fashion Week events.
  • Garth recently commented that it’s like 90210 will get a second season.
  • The CW Source is speculating whether Chad Michael Murray (Lucas, One Tree Hill) will return if the show goes on to a seventh season–and whether CMM tied the knot with fiance Kenzie Dalton, a former OTH extra.
  • TVGuide.com has a short article about Nick Lachey’s upcoming appearance on One Tree Hill, but it’s all information we already know.
  • Popbytes has a look at photo spread Ed Westwick (Chuck, Gossip Girl) did for Harper’s Bazaar.
  • In an interview with MTV, Zuzanna Szadkowski (Dorota, Gossip Girl) says the show is very popular in Poland, where she’s from–and that she’s rooting for Chuck and Blair!
  • While at a Fashion Week event, Michelle Trachtenberg (Georgina, Gossip Girl) joked that she’s “dating the whole cast, girls included.”
  • There doesn’t seem to be a Watch with Kristin chat this week (probably because Monday was President’s Day) but hopefully more spoilers will come later in the week.

Tori Spelling Quotes

17 02 2009

On filming the new 90210:

“I found Donna inside [me]. Donna’s still there!”

On her late father, Aaron, who helped create the original series:

“He always intended to make a 90210 for the new generation, so I think he’s probably going, ‘It’s about time!’

All-Time Favorite Couples Pt. 2

17 02 2009

Part One

4. Lucas and Peyton (One Tree Hill)

One Tree Hill creator Mark Schwahn once said ,”From the pilot we designed a world where Lucas and Peyton are meant to be together.”  Though they have spent much of the series’ 6 seasons apart, I believe the show still managed to be true to that world.  Watching them build a friendship and harbor crushes, getting closer only to get pushed apart, kept the emotions of both the characters and the fans raw and passionate.  Us Leyton fans seemed to get what we wanted, finally, at the middle of season 4…only to be shocked when we saw–four years into the future–they were no longer together.  But their history–as friends, lovers and more–kept the relationship alive whether they were together or apart.  When they were, it was total bliss.  When they weren’t, I yearned for them to be together, much like Peyton herself did.  When Lucas asks Peyton to marry him (the second time) and they resume their romantic relationship, it is a culmination of what the writers and characters worked towards for so many years.  I cannot imagine an ending to the show where they are not together and hopefully I won’t have to.

News Roundup: 90210, Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill

17 02 2009
  • The back cover art for the Beverly Hills, 90210 season 7 DVD box is out and it looks like, once again, there won’t be any special features.  That is NOT okay!
  • Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles did really poorly in the ratings after switching to Friday nights.  If the show is canceled–and it’s looking more and more likely–Brian Austin Green (David, Beverly Hills 90210) would be free to appear on the new 90210.
  • An expert on peer abuse wrote a post on why Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord, 90210) is not a bully.
  • McCord is the HD Hottie of the Day on TVPredictions.com.
  • We’ll get our first peek at the Gossip Girl spin-off in May when Krysten Ritter (who will play Lily’s sister Carol) appears in a flashback.
  • TVGuide.com says Gossip Girl is “starting to stink.”  The article identifies some of the show’s problems and suggests solutions.  Curious to know your thoughts!
  • Surprisingly, things are going well for The CW as a whole.  Lets hope that means One Tree Hill (which has been doing better than Gossip Girl in the ratings!) will be renewed!  Unfortunately, not everyone is so positive about the network’s future.
  • Daytime soap (and one of my faves!) Guiding Light is bringing back the character of Michelle Bauer, who was at one point played by Bethany Joy Galeotti (Haley, One Tree Hill).  Guess that means Galeotti could have another job if OTH doesn’t work out.

Site of the Week

16 02 2009

The site of the week is Wikipedia…sort of.

Let me explain.

Wikipedia has the most thorough listing of every “teen drama” ever made.

The list not only includes programs that I don’t even consider to be traditional teen dramas (which, in my opinion, are the ones covered by this site) but also shows that are from other countries.

Wikipedia isn’t always accurate but this list, my site of the week, is a great way to familiarize yourself with what else is out there.

Also of interest: Wikipedia’s Teen Drama Page
