  • This could make teen drama cross-over history!  Apparently Josh Schwartz is thinking about including an ’80s era Kirsten and Jimmy from The O.C. on the Gossip Girl spin-off as friends of Lily.
  • Korbi at Zap2it has a preview clip of Monday’s Gossip Girl.
  • Tons of fans showed up where One Tree Hill is filming, presumably, Lucas and Peyton’s wedding.
  • President Obama briefly mentioned Gossip Girl in a recent Town Hall session.
  • Austin Nicholas (Julian, One Tree Hill) reads from The Fountainhead, one of his favorite books, in a video on the Southern Gothic Productions blog.
  • Joshua Jackson (Pacey, Dawson’s Creek) says being on the show didn’t leave him time to “grow up.”
  • Tristan Wilds (Dixon, 90210) will star in a movie about an all-black unit of the army serving in World War II.
  • Finally watched the Beverly Hills, 90210 reunion that aired on BIO in February.  Turns out, it WAS the same special that aired in 2003.  Despite the description saying it would include Tori Spelling and Brian Austin Green, it didn’t as they weren’t in it then and obviously aren’t in it now.  A bit disappointing, but still fun to watch it again and relive the memories!
