But there is good news!
This is the last week of repeats! Hooray!
Here’s what you can expect tonight:
Gossip Girl: Carnal Knowledge (My Reaction Post)
One Tree Hill: Screenwriter’s Blues (My Reaction Post)
(These were the last new episodes before the hiatus)
Part One, Part Two, Part Three, Part Four
Character: Chuck Bass (Gossip Girl)
Style: Vulgar, self-centered, brash
Example: “Serena looked effin’ hot last night. There’s something wrong with that level of perfection. It needs to be violated.” (Pilot, Episode 1.1)
“What we’re entitled to is a house in the Hamptons. Maybe a perscription drug problem. But happiness does not seem to be on the menu so smoke up and seal the deal with Blair because you’re also entitled to tap that ass.” (Pilot, 1.1)
“You held a certain fascination… when you were beautiful, delicate, and untouched. Now… now you’re like the Arabian my father used to own. Rode hard and put away wet. I don’t want you anymore, and I can’t see why anyone else would.” (A Thin Line Between Chuck And Nate, 1.13)
“I love it when you talk dirty, Blair.” (Much ‘I Do’ About Nothing, 1.18)
“You watch your back. No one uses Chuck Bass.” (The Serena Also Rises, 2.5)
“I’m Chuck Bass.” (Multiple Episodes)
RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Question: My understanding is that One Tree Hill is returning without Chad Michael Murray and Hillarie Burton. Is there any truth to this? –Kirsten
Ausiello: Well, based on the rather odd video statement she released, Hillarie certainly wants us to think she’s leaving. I’ll believe it when I see her clean out her dressing room. Regarding CMM, it’s no secret that he’s ready to move on, but, again, no final decision has been made. BTW, only two Tree Hill regulars are officially on board for next season: Bethany Joy Galeotti and Jackson Brundage.
Question: Please tell me there is still hope for Dan and Serena? –Adam
Ausiello: If I did, I’d be lying. Exec producer Stephanie Savage confirms that Derena is dunzo. “I will tell you — and you can tell [everyone else] — that they do not get back together as a couple.”
Character: Blair Waldorf (Gossip Girl)
Style: Blunt and self-absorbed
Example: “After being broken up with my boyfriend for exactly twenty minutes, I succumbed to inebriation, performed at a Speak-Easy, and surrendered my virtue to a self-absorbed ass. The only good news is that he’s a total pig who’ll act like it never happened, thank God.” (Seventeen Candles, Episode 1.8)
“It doesn’t matter what you do but I’m a Waldorf!” (A Thin Line Between Chuck and Nate, 1.13)
“You haven’t heard? I’m the crazy bitch around here!” (Much ‘I Do’ About Nothing, 1.18)
“A hot lifeguard is like kleenex! Use once and throw away.” (Summer Kind of Wonderful, 2.1)
“It’s so hard finding obedient minions.” (Gone With The Will, 2.15)
RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Emily in Napa, Calif.: Any hopes of seeing Michelle Trachtenberg on Joss Whedon‘s Dollhouse?
Don’t look for little Dawn to be back in the Jossverse any time soon. Michelle just told me that while she’s happy for her former boss, she’s not too familiar with his new show. “I haven’t even seen it. I haven’t heard much about it except it’s premiered and congratulations for that!” Don’t be too disappointed, though. Her lack of knowledge on all things Dollhouse is simply because she’s too busy playing the evil Georgina Sparks again. “I’m most excited to be back on Gossip Girl. It has wonderful people, and it’s really nice just having my first day back, hearing ‘Welcome back.’ ”
Drew in Boston: Hey, I’m dying without my Gossip Girl fix! Please, is there any hope for Serena and Dan now that they have a half-dead-sibling? Anything else you can spill?
Correction: They have a half sibling who is fully alive and whom we will see on the show! And because of that and more, I’m told by a source: “Serena and Dan are really over.” Done. Kaput. No hope for them this season. Sorry! Anyone need a hug? Join me in the comments. As for the rest of the season, Serena will be cozying up big time to her new boy-toy (played by Armie Hammer) and a source tells me: “The last few episodes of the season are chock-full of some of the biggest OMFG moments of the series.” I think I just tinkled a little. Why do I love this show so? Darn you, Josh Schwartz and your TV crack!
Martin in New York: One Tree Hill! Will we get a wedding?
Lucas and Peyton’s wedding will happen this season. However, how it will end is a whole other story. (Here’s hoping he doesn’t say the name Rachel.) Also, get ready to see the softer (but still bitchy!) side of Victoria.
Heidi in Bristol, Conn.: I can’t wait for Georgina to come back to Gossip Girl! Any chance we’ll see more of her next season, too?
I’m just as excited as you are, especially after all of the goodies we just revealed about Georgina’s return! Michelle Trachtenberg (Georgina) tells us nothing has been decided just yet about her Gossip Girl fate, but her answer did have us leaning toward a yes! “A character like Georgina is so fantastic, and there are so many elements that are exciting and untapped, so you never know.” And while she has nothing planned, Michelle went on to say that she would definitely be open to a full-time TV gig, whether it’s G.G. or something new. “I think the wonderful thing about doing TV shows is that you get a few months out of the year to do films as well, so you get the best out of every world.” Did you hear that Josh Schwartz? Start working on another masterpiece for this girl!
Wallace in Orlando, Fla.: How about some 90210?
With love from our hot and sunny zip code to yours: Naomi’s sister Jen is coming to town, and if you thought Naomi was manipulative and a schemer, just wait till you meet big sis! Also, Adrianna and Navid’s bachelor and bachelorette parties put things into perspective for both characters, including a possible gateway back into drugs for pregnant Adrianna, which would elicit a sternly worded letter from yours truly to that little trollop.
No new episodes again. Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill will continue to be repeats until March 16th.
