25 08 2009RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Steph in Highland Park, Calif.: How is Michelle Trachtenberg going to juggle Gossip Girl and her new show Mercy?
Gossip Girl‘s Georgina Sparks herself tells us, “I can’t even begin to guess what the writers have in store for me. I mean, Mercy is definitely something that will take a lot of time and will be spearheaded, so there will be a little bit of a combination of everything. The great news is that if Georgina isn’t in as many episodes as one would think…and she kind of can’t die ever. So she’ll be in and out always.”
Abram in Jersey Garden, N.J.: Anything you can tell about Olivia’s new guy on Gossip Girl?
Olivia’s (Hilary Duff) new guy is actually an old flame. Olivia first appears in episode four on Gossip Girl this season, and shortly thereafter we meet her ex-boyfriend, who’s interested in getting back in her life.
Jen in Dallas: Is Daphne Zuniga done with One Tree Hill because she’s going to be on Melrose Place?
Daphne Zuniga is going to be back on One Tree Hill. She’s doing just one or possibly two episodes of Melrose, so that won’t conflict with OTH. Her return to OTH is just dependent on their storylines.
Sam in Lock Haven, Pa.: Are we going to see more of the gay storyline with John Cooper on Southland, or are they dropping that this season?
Southland is definitely sticking with the storyline of Cooper’s sexuality. Michael Cudlitz, who plays Cooper, tells us, “It’s going to evolve as we spend more time with him. We will learn more about his sexuality just from being with him.” Michael definitely doesn’t have a problem with these storylines, joking that he’s really hoping to show some skin: “I want them to see my butt.”
Michelle in Atlanta: Are Silver and Dixon over on 90210, or is there hope for them?
We don’t want to give false hope, but Jessica Stroup teases, “Will you see us kiss? Yes. Will we continue to kiss for the whole season? I don’t know.” While both have new love interests coming in, they still care for each other. Tristan Wilds tells us, “It’s definitely a rocky relationship. We’re having our ups and our downs. You never know where we fall, but right now we’re separated.”
Leona in Albuquerque, N.M.: Any more 90210 scoop?
Supersexy newbie Trevor Donovan is coming onboard as the rich son of an Oscar winner who stirs things up with Adrianna and Navid. “I have a connection with Adrianna. We have a little past, so obviously I’m creating a little tension, a little drama,” says Donovan. Is he a bad boy? “Not intentionally. He is causing a little trouble, but he’s somewhat oblivious to it.”
Mary in Tampa: 90210 scoop, please.
Don’t worry about Kelly getting involved in any rumored love triangles. “I definitely am not going to allow Kelly to be a homewrecker,” Jennie Garth told us exclusively. “The producers and I have talked about it. It’s not something I’m interested in, and it’s not something they’re going to do.” Why not some added drama? “I’ve spent too many years trying to create this woman other women can trust,” she said.
Sarah in Pasadena, Calif.: Are we even going to see Dustin Milligan at all on 90210, or is Ethan gone for good?
Gone for good, though Jessica Stroup tells us, “Ethan is happy in his world. He’s doing his thing wherever he is. He gets a mention and is talked about a little bit, but he’s happy.” Are you happy with that? Discuss in the comments.
***
Note: Michael Cudlitz (Tony, Beverly Hills 90210), co-stars with Benjamin McKenzie (Ryan, The O.C.) on Southland.

News Roundup: One Tree Hill, 90210, Gossip Girl and Dawson’s Creek
21 08 2009- Chad Michael Murray (Lucas, One Tree Hill) was on a radio show for a charity in Buffalo. I think this is the first press he’s done since he left the show.
- SoGoPro’s first webseries, Friendship Union Community Theater launched today. You can watch it here. Hilarie Burton (Peyton, One Tree Hill) also posted a vlog to go with it.
- According to a study by LiveHive Systems, One Tree Hill has the most social impact (aka social engagement) of any show on the air last season. The new 90210 was a distant second, followed by Jon and Kate Plus 8. “One Tree Hill’s top performance in the Social Engagement Index is the combination of a story format that is well suited to active social discussion and interactivity, and a demographic that gravitates to multi-platform media consumption,” says the press release.
- PopSugar posted photos of some of the 90210 cast at a recent event.
- Will.I.Am of the Black Eyed Peas explains his connection to Brian Austin Green (David, Beverly Hills 90210) in an MTV article.
- You can vote in a PEOPLE.com poll whether you want Grant Show (Jake, Beverly Hills 90210/Melrose Place) to appear on the new Melrose.
- PEOPLE.com spoke with Hilary Duff (Olivia, Gossip Girl) about working on GG.
- An article on Life Unexpected explains the show’s connections to Dawson’s Creek, including star Kerr Smith (Jack).
- Ali Larter (Kristy, Dawson’s Creek) is today’s HD Hottie.

20 08 2009RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Question: Any Gossip Girl scoop? Please, tell us something that doesn’t have to do with Dan and Georgina or Dan and Olivia. —Fernanda
Ausiello: Are we on a first name basis with Hilary Duff’s Gossip starlet already? Good to know. Well, speaking of Olivia, there’s a new man in her life. His name is Patrick and they’re co-stars in the Twilight Vampire Knight movie franchise. Casting is under way for the two-episode role.
Question: Bonjour! Avez-vous des infos sur la saison 3 de Gossip Girl??? Merci beaucoup!!!! —Xav
Ausiello: Lady Gaga fera une apparition dans l’épisode spécial “Halloween.” Batman aussi. Et Robin. Et… Vous voyez où je veux en venir? (Ce sont tous des déguisements, mon ami!)
****
Here’s an approximate translation of that last question:
Question: Hello! Do you have info on season 3 of Gossip Girl??? Thank you very much!!!! – Xav
Ausiello: Lady Gaga will make an appearance in the special episode “Halloween.” Batman too. And Robin. And… You see where I am going with this? (They all are disguises/costumes, my friend!)

Kelly in Michigan: Please tell me that the Dan-Georgina hookup in the Gossip Girl promos is misdirection!
No can do. Michelle Trachtenberg‘s Georgina and Penn Badgley‘s Dan really do hook up in season three of Gossip Girl. Naughty! (BTW, in case you missed ’em, check out our exclusive on-set interviews with Penn, Michelle, Jessica Szohr and Leighton Meester!)
Mickey in Arizona: I can’t wait to see Hilary Duff on Gossip Girl! When does she start?
Hilary Duff‘s Olivia Burke is introduced in episode four, and she’ll be sticking around for a while.
Bruce in Miami: Is Naomi going to hook up with Rumer Willis’ character on 90210 this season?
If AnnaLynne McCord has any say in it, heck yes! “Maybe Naomi gets a little drunk, maybe she has a little peck on the lips with Rumer. It can’t hurt anybody.” As for N’s overall mean-girl status this season, AnnaLynne promises: “I’m a lot funnier and a lot nicer this year.”

21 07 2009RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Heather A. in Montgomery, N.Y.: With the Emmy noms out, I was wondering why One Tree Hill is never nominated? It’s just as good as those other shows that are nominated. For that matter, there are hardly any CW shows nominated ever. Just want to know why that is.
Oh, aren’t you sweet. What can we say? It just wouldn’t be fair to put One Tree Hill in the same categories as 30 Rock and Mad Men. That said, Watch With Kristin’s CW Awards return in December to fill in the gaps left by the Emmys and to honor the genuine awesomeness that is Supernatural and Gossip Girl.
Vanessa in Toronto: Is it true Chuck and Blair are gonna try to have a threesome on Gossip Girl? Tell me they won’t go through with it and that it might bring some sexy time for these two? I think we need it as much as they do.
You guys come up with all the best rumors! Our sources tell us there’s no threesome between Chuck, Blair and a third player to be named later, but there are a lot of C&B sexcapades happening in Gossip Girl season three. And white-hot angry sex is on the list.
Kelly in Montana: Any scoop on Olivia and Dan’s relationship on Gossip Girl?
The newest fabulous Upper East Sider, Olivia (Hilary Duff), likes that Dan doesn’t recognize her as a famous movie star.
Clarice in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil: Any news about Jenny on Gossip Girl?
Jenny’s going to have to defend her queendom against the mean girls. Makes sense. Mean girls don’t usually surrender the spotlight so easily.
Adam in N.Y.: Anything on Carter Baizen since Sebastian Stan’s show Kings is kaput? Is he back on Gossip Girl? He’s shady.
Shady Carter is going to be hooking up with Serena! Yes, Serena van der Woodsen and Carter Baizen are going to try to make a go of it in season three of Gossip Girl. Forgive us if we’re not optimistic about their long-term prospects.
Zoe in Allentown, Pa.: Almost every episode of One Tree Hill started and ended with a voice-over by Chad Michael Murray. With CMM leaving, who is going to be delivering the dramatic words of OTH wisdom?
The most likely scenario is that the OTH voice-over will rotate between the regular characters every week, but nothing’s been decided for sure yet.

News Roundup: Gossip Girl, 90210 and Dawson’s Creek
7 07 2009- PEOPLE.com has a poll asking whose hairdo’ you like better: Chace Crawford (Nate, Gossip Girl) or Zac Efron.
- InStyle has a short article on Crawford’s new look.
- PEOPLE.com also has another poll asking “which starlet do you want to watch on The CW?” with the options being Hilary Duff (Olivia, Gossip Girl), Rumer Willis (Gia, 90210) or Ashlee Simpson (Melrose Place).
- As I could’ve told you all along (which is why I didn’t post anything suggesting it), AnnaLynne McCord (Naomi, 90210) and Kellan Lutz (George, 90210) are not together!
- I don’t think Dawson’s Creek is on TV anywhere anymore (sniff sniff) but I just found this site that has a couple of episodes you can watch from the first 3 seasons.

7 07 2009RELEVANT QUESTIONS–DON’T READ IF YOU DON’T WANT TO KNOW!!!
Amy in Pittsburgh: So excited Gossip Girl is back in production! What can you tell us?!
Sorry, Hilary Duff haters, but Duff joins the Gossip Girl cast as movie star Olivia, and she’ll be getting her movie-star cooties on the entire cast, not just Vanessa and Dan. Also on Gossip Girl this season, Chuck and Blair are totally getting married and having a million babies. (OK, not that, but they are staying tight. Yay!) And believe it or not, the show really is trending away from “Dan and Serena are the one true pairing of Gossip Girl.” Certainly, that arc might turn back sometime in the future, but for now the show is trying to establish their separate identities, apart from their on-again, off-again shenanigans. Is that great news or the worst thing you’ve ever heard? Post in the comments!
Gervase in Montreal, Quebec: Thanks for the interview with Blake Lively about Papa van der Woodsen. Are we actually going to see Serena’s dad this season on Gossip Girl?
TV Diva’s Magic 8-ball says: It is decidedly so. We will finally meet Serena’s dad this season on Gossip Girl.
Cristina in Teaneck, N.J.: Will Adrianna and Naomi reconcile with Annie on 90210?
As far as Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord), Adrianna (Jessica Lowndes) and Annie (Shenae Grimes) being best buds in the second season (something some of you would like to see), AnnaLynne says, “Never. Not going to happen. I’m sorry. I wish.”
Marianne in Toluca Lake, Calif.: Any scoop on 90210? I’m in for the long haul.
Michael Steger tells us, “They’re talking about renovating the Blaze newsroom, so it’s going to be where everything happens and everybody meets up. They’re going to make it very loungey, very comfortable.” (The Blaze newsroom is where we’ll meet Rumer Willis‘ character when she guests in a season-two episode.)
