RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Question: I may be the only person in the world who’s extremely excited by the breakup of Dan and Serena on Gossip Girl. What’s next for both of them? — Randi
Ausiello: A new love triangle for Serena that will eventually set in motion that whole Anne Hathaway-inspired plot I told you about last week. What I failed to mention in that story was that when Serena’s grifter love interest is first introduced, he’s in a relationship with her socialite bud, Poppy Lifton!
(This really isn’t a spoiler so I don’t think my usual warning label is necessary!)
Please ask the producers of 90210 to quit shilling Dr. Pepper and splashing their logo all over the place. — Bill S.
MICKEY: I know, right? That logo is everywhere. My West Bev mole tells me that the Dr. Pepper deal was an experiment gone slightly awry. Future product placement will aim for more subtlety. Besides, Diet Coke with Lime is a far superior carbonated beverage, several free cases of which I would never turn down.
There’s one thing we simultaneously love and dread about our beloved teen dramas: the cliff-hanger. While these plot twists guarantee drama to the nth degree, we’re left hanging–jaws dropped, hands in the air and heart palpitating–to see what will happen next. And when the powers that be decide to use these cliff-hangers as season finales, we spend three months with baited breath, wondering how these stories will conclude.
Starting today I’ll take a look back at the most memorable season-ending cliff-hangers. If these didn’t get you screaming at your TV, I don’t know what will!
5A. One Tree Hill: The Games That Play Us (Season 1)
5B. One Tree Hill: The Leavers Dance (Season 2)
5C. One Tree Hill: The Show Must Go On (Season 3)
