News Roundup: 90210, Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill and More
5 03 2010- Have you taken the TDW Survey yet?
- The Hollywood Reporter has a very interesting interview with CW head Dawn Ostroff, where she discusses 90210 and Gossip Girl, in addition to One Tree Hill.
- TeenTelevision.com and Digital Spy have spoiler-filled interviews with Michael Steger (Navid, 90210). I’ll be posting my own interview with Steger on Sunday.
- Amber Wallace (Glenda, One Tree Hill) will be reprising her role as Lila on 90210. Zap2it has some spoilish details and I’ll have some, too, in my Steger interview.
- There’s some evidence that this newly-made Twitter account (and the linked Facebook page) is actually Shannen Doherty (Brenda, Beverly Hills 90210), particularly because verified accounts for Holly Marie Combs and Alyssa Milano are communicating with it. But her reps insist to me it’s not. Interpret as you wish.
- Also found a listing on Amazon for Doherty’s upcoming book, Bad Ass. Have to say I’m kind of surprised…
- Rebecca Gayheart (Toni, Beverly Hills 90210) and hubby Eric Dane welcomed a baby girl earlier this week.
- Last night’s Jimmy Fallon featured a super-awesome reunion of the super-awesome California Dreams cast, which included Heidi Lenhart (Ellen, Beverly Hills 90210).
- NYU Livewire has a very interesting article with suggestions on how to improve Gossip Girl.
- One Tree Hill co-producer Kelly Tenney has another SoGoPro blog post about filming in Utah.
- MTV has a video interview with James Van Der Beek (Dawson, Dawson’s Creek), where he says he and Michelle Williams (Jen, Dawson’s Creek) would be interested in some sort of “reunion show.” Don’t get that at all since A) Van Der Beek said last month he wasn’t interested in one, B) creator Kevin Williamson said during November’s Paley Panel he wasn’t interested in one, C) The series finale took place 5 years in the future, D) Jen died in the finale and E) Williams didn’t even participate in the Paley Panel.
- Jeri Ryan (Charlotte, The O.C.) has been cast in Body of Evidence, an ABC pilot.

Fun Fact
5 03 2010While nearly all the teen dramas started with main characters who were siblings or would become siblings, every single one did begin with main characters who had some form of absentee parents.
On Beverly Hills 90210, Kelly’s dad took off when she little.
With Dawson’s Creek, Joey’s mother died when she was thirteen and her father was in prison. Jen’s parents sent her to Capeside to live with her grandmother.
Ryan’s father was in prison on The O.C. and his mom kicked him out of the house and soon took off. Summer’s mom abandoned her and her dad she was thirteen.
On One Tree Hill, Peyton’s mom died when she was 8 and her dad spent long periods of time away at sea. Brooke’s parents were often out of town as well. Lucas didn’t really have a dad in Dan.
Serena and Eric’s dad was MIA while Blair’s father lived in France and Chuck’s mom was dead (or so he thinks).
On 90210, Silver’s dad Mel appeared to be out of the picture while Dixon’s biological parents were who-knows-where.
Almost all these “absentee parents” led to much drama on the shows. But it’s worth noting that even the “2-parent households” had their problems, too!

Dawn Ostroff on One Tree Hill’s Renewal Chances
5 03 2010THR: What’s the likelihood of “One Tree Hill” coming back?
Ostroff: We’re encouraged. We think (creator) Mark Schwahn has done a great job with the show. The fans are the most loyal and dedicated I think I’ve ever seen. They have some 1.6 million fans on Facebook. Too early too tell, but creatively we feel the show is in a really good place.
THR: What about “Life Unexpected”?
Ostroff: That’s really too early too tell.
THR: Looking at the number of drama pilots you have, is it fair to assume that there won’t be slots for both “One Tree Hill” and “Life Unexpected”?
Ostroff: Too soon to say anything yet.

Weekly Poll
3 03 2010In the last Weekly Poll, most voters–56 percent–said the Victoria/Alexander pairing on One Tree Hill came out of nowhere, though 31 percent said they don’t know what to think while 13 percent said it makes sense. The second poll had similar numbers, with 53 percent saying seeing Georgina every now and then on Gossip Girl was fine, 34 percent saying she should be a main character and 14 percent saying it depends on the storyline. Forty-four percent prefer Harry to be written off 90210 via death, with “none of the above” getting the next highest result–24 percent–and then 15 percent for “combo of the above,” and 9 percent each for divorce and rehab.
