18 12 2009
  • The CW declared this One Tree Hill scene from season six as its OMG Moment of the Year.
  • SoapNet is airing a One Tree Hill marathon on New Year’s Day. The promo suggests it’s all season 6 episodes. I’ll post a reminder that morning.
  • Ausiello has spoilish Joe Manganiello (Owen, One Tree Hill) news. You can probably guess–especially if you read my interview with him this summer.
  • Bethany Joy Galeotti (Haley, One Tree Hill) recorded a message for fans.
  • Everly, the band Galeotti is in, has released a new album.
  • You can vote for Haley, Brooke (Sophia Bush, One Tree Hill), Blair (Leighton Meester, Gossip Girl), Serena (Blake Lively, Gossip Girl) and Silver (Jessica Stroup, 90210) in the Girl on Top tournament.
  • Eric Daman, Gossip Girl’s costume director, has released a book.
  • This is the first time I’ve seen a picture of Kathleen Robertson (Clare, Beverly Hills 90210) at an event in a looooong time. There’s also a picture of Julie Bowen (Aunt Gwen, Dawson’s Creek).
  • The Washington Post has an interesting article on The Beautiful Life, starring Mischa Barton (Marissa, The O.C.), and its second life on YouTube.

News Roundup: 90210, Gossip Girl, The O.C. and More

9 12 2009
  • Quite a few teen drama stars, past and present, made BuddyTV’s list of the Sexiest Men and Sexiest Women of 2009. Seriously, an actor or actress from every one of our teen dramas was included!
  • Last night’s 90210 (1.9 million viewers) a small drop in the ratings compared to last week but a tie for the season low.
  • EW.com has a great recap of last night’s 90210, complete with a reference to The O.C.
  • The Los Angeles Times also has wonderful recap–and they linked to TDW! Here’s the bad part: according this article, 90210 won’t be back til March! The CW seemingly confirmed it in an e-mail they sent out earlier tonight saying to watch 90210 “this spring.”
  • Gossip Girl is being turned into a comic book/graphic novel.
  • Monsters and Critics has an article on Mischa Barton (Marissa, The O.C.)
  • Olivia Wilde (Alex, The O.C.) is in a new PSA on global warming.




Most Shocking Deaths, Pt. 5

27 11 2009

Part 1 Part 2 Part 3 Part 4

2. Jen suffers the effects of a heart illness (Dawson’s Creek, Episode 6.24:…Must Come to an End)

1. Marissa and Ryan get into a car accident (The O.C., Episode 3.25: The Graduates)

You’ll notice some of my picks overlapped with my Top 10 Saddest Moments list because, well, let’s face it–death is about the saddest thing someone can experience.

But what I really tried to focus on here was the jaw-dropping aspect, which is why the overlapping scenes aren’t in the same order as my previous list. For instance, I think Jen’s death was more devastating (read: sad) than Marissa’s, but Marissa’s was more jaw-dropping (read: shocking).

Make sense? Feel free to disagree!

Spoiler: Watch With Kristin

17 11 2009

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

Krista in Lafayette Hill, Pa.: Is it true that the CW has decided to air the rest of the episodes of The Beautiful Life later this season? If for some miracle the ratings increased would they bring it back full time?
A representative for the CW tells us, “The status of unaired eps of The Beautiful Life is still to be determined.” My rock-solid source who knows about such things tells me: No truth whatsoever. Sorry, Mischa!

Drew in Walhalla, S.C.: I’m a freak for Chuck and Blair on Gossip Girl! Tell me they aren’t going to break up any time soon.
They aren’t. It’s actually Rufus and Lily’s relationship that will be in a very bad place until the end of the season. From what I understand, it all stems from a letter that Serena’s father is going to send her. And of course, it doesn’t help that Bart Bass is back in the mix!

Rebecca in Miami: How about some One Tree Hill scoop?
Skills is moving to Los Angeles. (Tear. You will be missed in Tree Hill!) Also, a new man may come between Brooke and Julian.

Randall in Ohio: How about some good stuff on 90210? I’ve been getting into it lately.
DVR alert: I’m hearing that episode 12 is going to be awesome. It all goes down at the Winter Wonderland dance, and an intervention takes place for Annie to get her to realize that Jasper is a bad guy. Hmmm, will she believe them? Also, Teddy has feelings for Silver and asks her out, but she rejects him. Wah-wah. Though we hear something will happen between the two later on.

Notes:

If you recall, The Beautiful Life starred Mischa Barton (Marissa, The O.C.).

We already saw Lily receive the letter from Serena’s father last week and the OTH stuff we already knew as well both from the episodes and spoilish info I posted.

There’s also been spoilish pictures of the Winter Wonderland dance circulating. Can’t remember if I posted them.
