RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Maurice in Pittsburgh: What the what? I just read Josh Schwartz’s quote that Jenny and Chuck have something coming up on Gossip Girl. Please tell me Little J is not coming between Blair and Chuck. I’ll die!
Your life is spared. An inside source tells me that Jenny and Chuck don’t really have any big storylines together this season, so I’m assuming Josh meant Jenny will have a big storyline and Chuck will have a big storyline, but they are not the same storyline. Chuck’s story involves the possible surprise return of his believed-to-be-dead mother (and Jack Bass), and Jenny’s involves another couple she comes between…guesses?
Wanda Two Saints: Kristin, are you really not going to tell us who Jenny will be interfering with? That’s low, even for you!
Only because I like old friends with bad glasses, I will reveal that Jenny is going to “get in between Nate and Serena,” according to my rock-solid Gossip Girl source. We likey? We hatey? I’m thinking more of the latter…
Drew in St. Paul, Minn.: Has Serena’s father been cast yet on Gossip Girl?
Not yet. But he’s coming before the season ends.
Holly: How about some news on 90210? I’ll take anything on Dixon…love him.
And apparently he loves to gamble. Or he will, soon. I’m also hearing we will meet Teddy’s movie star father, Spence.

Just want to say we already know about Teddy/Spence (but I forget who first had it) and point out that Brandon on Beverly Hills 90210 also had a gambling problem.

Why does it seem like every male character on a teen series develops gambling problems? Brandon did on the original, Ben did on Felicity, and there was a character that did on the abc family show Wildfire… I’m sure there are more.
Is it too much of a stretch to count Pacey and the stock market? And Nathan got involved with loan sharks/gamblers on OTH. The O.C. and Gossip Girl just had episodes that involved gambling.
I see all of those in the same category. They all were about a guy that didn’t know when to quit. Except on the O.C. Ryan was successful … well sort of lol
And on GG this season, didn’t Nate lose on purpose in the end?
Oh yeah, actually that one had the twist because Serena was playing and Nate purposefully made her lose to help Tripp.
Interesting to think how far Nate-Serena-Tripp have come since then in such a seemingly short time.
But, going back to my original comment, I’m eager to see how this thing with Dixon shakes out. Will it be another instead of ignorantly copying the original (especially given the supposed Dixon/Brandon parallel) or a genuinely good storyline? I always hope for the latter and tend to be disappointed in the end but we’ll see…
