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

15 04 2009
  • Tori Spelling (Donna, Beverly Hills 90210) is fighting back rumors that she’s anorexic.
  • There’s a small photo of Tori in the April 20th issue of PEOPLE, highlighting her return to 90210.
  • There are two video interviews with Jessica Stroup (Silver, 90210) posted at The CW Source.  They also have a Tori-related video that they got from somewhere else, I think.
  • TV Guide Magazine has an interview with Jessica Lowndes (Adrianna, 90210).
  • Diablo Cody talks about her 90210 appearance in this interview.
  • The Los Angeles Times also thought that the Dr. Pepper placement was a bit too much in last night’s 90210.
  • Brian Austin Green’s (David, Beverly Hills 90210) Terminator show is pretty much canceled, according to Ausiello. So maybe we’ll see him on 90210 next season?
  • Baltimore viewers were accidentally treated to an episode of Gossip Girl when they tuned in to watch 24 and House!
  • E!Online has a Gossip Girl sneak peek.
  • The Michigan Tech Lode has a pretty scathing review of Gossip Girl.
  • Ivanka Trump (daughter of Donald) is quoted in the 4/20 issue of PEOPLE that Gossip Girl is “a total parody, but I find it to be unbelievably funny.”
  • Chace Crawford (Nate, Gossip Girl) came in second in that PEOPLE.com poll asking which actor should take Zac Efron’s place in Footloose.
  • Teen drama worlds are colliding again!  Cam Gigandet (Volchok, The O.C.) will play Leighton Meester’s (Blair, Gossip Girl) boyfriend in The Roommate.
  • Just figured out now that Shailene Woodley from The Secret Life of the American Teenager was the original Kaitlin on The O.C.
  • The CW Source has a poll asking which One Tree Hill actor is the most “fashion-forward.”

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

Question: I heard that someone on 90210 is gonna die in the season finale. Who is it? –Isabela
Ausiello:
It’s (drumroll, please) no one! At least not that I know of. In other news, Sara Foster has been cast as Naomi’s sister, Jen. She’ll debut in April and make a beeline for Mr. Matthews.

Question: You haven’t given us 90210 scoop in a while. Care to share some? –Derek
Ausiello:
Word around the Peach Pit is that producers are once again pursuing Brian Austin Green for an episode. Timing may be in their favor: Sarah Connor Chronicles wrapped production last Friday.





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.
