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

You said in a recent Mega Minute that One Tree Hill‘s Nathan gets an offer to play basketball in Europe. Please say he doesn’t accept! I need my “Naley” intact. — Bess
MATT: Maybe, just maybe, the Scotts’ marriage will dodge that bullet if Nathan instead gets recruited by a very local NBA team — which this photo seems to suggest. Then again, those Tree Hill kids have always been big dreamers.

Reader Quote of the Week: “Please for the love of god, kill Nate. If [Gossip Girl is] gonna jump the shark, the least they could do is have him die in a freak hair straightening accident.” (asho902, weighing in on Gossip Girl‘s flirtation with the Shark)

Amanda in Calgary, Alberta, Canada: Kristen Bell was photographed on the set of Gossip Girl this week. Was it just a visit or are we going to actually see our favorite voice-over character in person on the show?
According to our sources, our beloved Kristen Bell is not scheduled to appear onscreen, but the season finale is all about Serena trying to unmask Gossip Girl. Oh dear…that’s probably not going to go so well for S.!

Daniel in Pine Grove, Pa.: Please tell me that Peyton and Baby Leyton will be all right on One Tree Hill!
A baby will be born on the One Tree Hill finale, but whether baby and/or Peyton survive is another question.

YouTube Video of the Week

29 03 2009

This week’s video has two purposes.

First, I wanted to show The O.C.’s Sandy and Kirsten a little love.  They were the first adult teen drama couple viewers really latched on to and became invested in.  They set the groundwork for the adult-oriented storylines we’ve since seen on One Tree Hill and Gossip Girl.

Then with the news that Kirsten’s younger self might be mixed in with the Gossip Girl spin-off, I figured it would be good to revisit The O.C. clip that showed her that way.

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

Question: I am dying for some Gossip Girl scoop regarding the season finale. –Lara
Ausiello:
I’m hearing there will be multiple cliffhangers, one of which may include an appearance by Rufus and Lily’s presumed-dead love child.

Question: Any scoop on the Gossip Girl spin-off? Please tell me they’re not calling it Lily. That would be L-A-M-E. –Blake
Ausiello:
They’re not calling it Lily; nor will it be Lily of the Valley, which was also rumored. The Valley was discussed but, alas, that was the name of the faux soap on The O.C. That leaves… um… If you’ve got any suggestions, post ’em in the comments!
