Random Thought

31 01 2009

So it’s still not clear whether or not One Tree Hill will be back for a seventh season–and if it is, whether Chad Michael Murray (Lucas) will be a part of the cast.

Regardless, I’ve come up with an idea for a spin-off centered around…Brooke!

Given the storylines in seasons 5 and 6, I envision Brooke (Sophia Bush) returning to New York where she tries to reclaim her company–Clothes Over Bros–from her manipulative mother, Victoria (Daphne Zuniga).  While there, she struggles to balance jumping back into her high-profile career with raising Sam (Ashley Rickards) and perhaps even another foster baby.

She would be single and casually dating until Julian (Austin Nichols) comes back into her life.

So what do you think?  Should I pitch it to Mark? 😉





Breaking News: Mark Schwahn NOT Doing Melrose Place

12 01 2009

From the ongoing Television Critics Association Press Tour: Dawn Ostroff, head of The CW, announced that Mark Schwahn is no longer involved with the Melrose Place remake.

So what does this mean for One Tree Hill?

Here’s what the article says:

“[Ostroff] would only say how pleased she has been with the show and noted it has made huge gains in audience over last year.  At this point, the only sticking points for renewal could be with the cast. The major players’ contracts all expire after this season, and so far none of the cast have agreed to more seasons — though many have expressed being open to the idea.”

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

Question: Any new news about the Veronica Mars movie? If not, some Gossip Girl scoop is perfectly acceptable. — Amy
Ausiello:
Gossip Girl scoop it is! Word around the UES is that Serena will soon share something in common with Anne Hathaway. And garnering Oscar buzz ain’t it.

Question: About Lily and Rufus’ kid on Gossip Girl: another site said it was a boy and he died. Is that true? — Hanna
Ausiello:
Only half of it.

Question: I need to know more about Gossip Girl, please! I’ll give my entire Smurf collection! — Ali
Ausiello:
I have a sneaking suspicion that Chuck’s mother is alive. Anyone else share my hunch?

Question: Do you have any news on One Tree Hill? We heard that Mark Schwahn had asked The CW for a decision on season 7 by 1 January so that he could write an appropriate season ending. — Nathan
Ausiello:
Not Jan. 1, but a decision will be made soon. It’s all about contracts now. The cast only signed six-year pacts, so new deals will have to be brokered. Negotiations are happening as we speak.
