News Roundup: One Tree Hill, 90210 and Gossip Girl

23 10 2009

  • PopMatters has a story on Jamie Walters (Ray, Beverly Hills 90210) being a one-hit wonder.

James Lafferty on Nathan’s Future

23 10 2009

“For me personally, my character has been so connected and dedicated to the Scott family unit for all these years and I think that’s where Nathan belongs, with his wife and with his son, and anywhere else would be a little bit of a letdown for the audience — probably a letdown for me personally as well.”





Happy Birthday Jessica Stroup!

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

Question: I’m tired of people bitching about Gossip Girl being in a creative slump. I’m loving this season. Got scoop? —Alex
Ausiello:
I’m (mostly) loving this season, too. The Chuck-Blair stuff continues to be immensely satisfying. And Hilary Duff isn’t nearly as annoying as I thought she’d be. On the scoop front, there’s a big Blair-Serena blow-up coming. The frenemies will definitely be on the outs for a little bit.

Question: Anything good coming up on 90210? —Nick
Ausiello:
Dixon’s about to land himself a cougar! “A new woman comes into Dixon’s life, and she’s even older than Sasha,” teases exec producer Rebecca Sinclair. “It’s someone we’ve met before.”

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

Why is everyone on 90210 breaking up? It wasn’t all bad last season! — Kerry
MICKEY: Well, Kerry, everyone knows that happy couples equal deadly-boring TV. They had to break them up. The good news is that the spring episodes are promising a major lovefest when three (yes, three!) couples reconcile within the space of a few weeks. On the other hand, Teddy Montgomery and Kelly Taylor will be left out in the cold.
