Fact or Fiction: OTH Cast Rumors Update

26 02 2009

From Watch with Kristin:

If you keep tabs on the One Tree Hill fandom, you may have heard some scary rumors over the past couple of days. Yes, the CW ordered a seventh season of the series, but if you are to believe the Internets, it would be without the presence of stars Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton.

Could the show really go on without them? Here’s what we’re hearing…

Rumors of the actors leaving the series have been greatly exaggerated. While it’s true that the CW ordered a new season without having signed contracts with CMM and Burton, it turns out that’s because the CW doesn’t have signed contracts (yet) with any of the OTH talent.

Now, it’s certainly possible that CMM and Burton could leave (there’s no definite news either way), but overall, you can rest your pretty little heads about this issue, as we’ve been told by a reliable insider, “Obviously, most if not all [of the castmembers] are coming back.”

*Update*

Video is up at SGP blog

So, this is developing news.  I’m seeing links and reading here and at FF about a video that was posted of Hilarie on her SGP blog that has since been taken down.  From descriptions, it was clear she was not coming back to Season 7.  Fans describe what she says:

She talks about how she want people to know how much she loves OTH, the crew and Peyton Sawyer and how she wish she had creative control of the show. She also doesnt want anyone to think that she abandoning a show that has been good to her. She stills wants us to watch the show and support it. She did say had a good run. She didnt flat out say she was leaving, but it was kinda obvious she is. Leytonunit220@FF

We love you, Hilarie!!!

My take: WTF is going on?!





News Roundup: Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill, 90210 and More

26 02 2009
  • Entertainment Weekly and Zap2it have detailed lists of the air dates for all the major upcoming teen drama guest stars, like Michelle Trachtenberg (Georgina, Gossip Girl), Tori Spelling (Donna, 90210) and Nick Lachey (One Tree Hill).
  • Trachtenberg says Georgina will be “reformed” when she returns to GG.  The article is followed by several GG promo clips.
  • TVGuide.com readers said Leyton (OTH), as well as Ethan & Annie (90210), are among the “worst TV couples.”  The site included Dawson & Joey (Dawson’s Creek), as well as Ryan & Marissa (The O.C.) and Vanessa & Nate (GG), on their own list.
  • Lindsay Price (Janet, Beverly Hills 90210) will have a job even if Lipstick Jungle doesn’t get renewed.  She’s been cast in an ABC pilot.
  • Joshua Jackson (Pacey, Dawson’s Creek) says he repeatedly goes through crises in his life.
  • Eddie Mills (Ty, Dawson’s Creek) talks to the Winston-Salem Journal about getting to go the Oscars.




Fact or Fiction: CMM and Burton leaving OTH?

25 02 2009

Some sources say they are.

Some say they aren’t.

And some just don’t know.

With so little information out there, I really don’t know what to make of it. I’m hesitant to believe anything that doesn’t come from the network, the actors or Mark Schwahn.

It’s hard to believe Schwahn would be willing to, in good faith, continue the show without two of its leading characters.  He spent so much time building a show around Lucas and Peyton (as a couple and in their relationships with the other characters) that it doesn’t feel like it would still be One Tree Hill without them.

OTH defied the odds when it jumped ahead several years and managed not to get the death-sentence label of “jumping the shark.”  I don’t see them having that same kind of success if CMM and Burton leave.

What do you think?  Would it still be One Tree Hill without Lucas and Peyton?  If they are leaving, would you rather the series end with season 6?





Fun Fact

25 02 2009

One Tree Hill’s seventh season renewal not only means it surpasses the length of time Dawson’s Creek filmed in Wilmington, but also that OTH now ranks as the second longest-running teen drama in history.

Score!





Breaking News: OTH renewed, GG spin-off gets title

24 02 2009

No need to wonder anymore if the TV gods will bless us with another season of One Tree Hill.  TV Week confirmed that The CW has in fact renewed OTH for a season 7.  No word yet on whether this will be with or without Chad Michael Murray (Lucas).

In other good teen drama news, Gossip Girl and 90210 were also renewed.

And here’s the icing on the cake:

The GG spin-off will simply be titled “Lily.”  Cute, no?





No new episodes tonight!

23 02 2009

No new episodes again.  Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill are on hiatus until mid-March.

Here’s what’s on tonight instead:

News Roundup: 90210, One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl and More

18 02 2009
  • 90210 cast members will sit on a special panel at this year’s Paley Festival in California.
  • Both Jennie Garth (Kelly, Beverly Hills 90210) and Mischa Barton (Marissa, The O.C.) made headlines for participating in Fashion Week events.
  • Garth recently commented that it’s like 90210 will get a second season.
  • The CW Source is speculating whether Chad Michael Murray (Lucas, One Tree Hill) will return if the show goes on to a seventh season–and whether CMM tied the knot with fiance Kenzie Dalton, a former OTH extra.
  • TVGuide.com has a short article about Nick Lachey’s upcoming appearance on One Tree Hill, but it’s all information we already know.
  • Popbytes has a look at photo spread Ed Westwick (Chuck, Gossip Girl) did for Harper’s Bazaar.
  • In an interview with MTV, Zuzanna Szadkowski (Dorota, Gossip Girl) says the show is very popular in Poland, where she’s from–and that she’s rooting for Chuck and Blair!
  • While at a Fashion Week event, Michelle Trachtenberg (Georgina, Gossip Girl) joked that she’s “dating the whole cast, girls included.”
  • There doesn’t seem to be a Watch with Kristin chat this week (probably because Monday was President’s Day) but hopefully more spoilers will come later in the week.




News Roundup: 90210, Gossip Girl and One Tree Hill

17 02 2009
  • The back cover art for the Beverly Hills, 90210 season 7 DVD box is out and it looks like, once again, there won’t be any special features.  That is NOT okay!
  • Terminator: Sarah Connor Chronicles did really poorly in the ratings after switching to Friday nights.  If the show is canceled–and it’s looking more and more likely–Brian Austin Green (David, Beverly Hills 90210) would be free to appear on the new 90210.
  • An expert on peer abuse wrote a post on why Naomi (AnnaLynne McCord, 90210) is not a bully.
  • McCord is the HD Hottie of the Day on TVPredictions.com.
  • We’ll get our first peek at the Gossip Girl spin-off in May when Krysten Ritter (who will play Lily’s sister Carol) appears in a flashback.
  • TVGuide.com says Gossip Girl is “starting to stink.”  The article identifies some of the show’s problems and suggests solutions.  Curious to know your thoughts!
  • Surprisingly, things are going well for The CW as a whole.  Lets hope that means One Tree Hill (which has been doing better than Gossip Girl in the ratings!) will be renewed!  Unfortunately, not everyone is so positive about the network’s future.
  • Daytime soap (and one of my faves!) Guiding Light is bringing back the character of Michelle Bauer, who was at one point played by Bethany Joy Galeotti (Haley, One Tree Hill).  Guess that means Galeotti could have another job if OTH doesn’t work out.
