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

Any scoop on Gossip Girl‘s Season 3? — F.R.
MICKEY: Speaking with TVGuide.com at the CW upfronts, Leighton Meester seemed to confirm that Georgina’s plan to weasel her way into Blair’s life will be successful, as Blair will be living — gasp! — in an NYU dorm, with the little people! Including possibly both G. and V.! (Don’t worry, Dorota fans; she’ll still be on hand to tend to her “Miss Blair.”)





News Roundup: Gossip Girl, 90210 and One Tree Hill

24 05 2009
  • You can see pictures of some of our favorite teen drama stars at the upfronts here.
  • Ed Westwick (Chuck, Gossip Girl) used his GG character to convince advertisers at the upfronts to work with The CW.
  • Westwick talked about his character’s style and his real-life tattoo with The Washington Post.
  • Kristin has spoilish info on Gossip Girl’s next season.
  • TVGuide.com said 90210 had the “most pointless cliffhanger” of the week/TV season.
  • Finished reading Mommywood by Tori Spelling (Donna, Beverly Hills 90210).  Loved it just as much as I did sTORI Telling (which is a lot!).  Best parts: when she talks about 90210, including recently running into Luke Perry (Dylan, Beverly Hills 90210) and him completely snubbing her!
  • You can follow the progress of Bethany Joy Galeotti’s (Haley, One Tree Hill) restaurant here.

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

You made a potentially sarcastic remark about Gossip Girl‘s Serena and Nate happening. I need to know if there is anything to that remark, because I am more hopeful than I should be about Serenate finding their way back together. Please help! — Megan
MICKEY: Hope springs eternal, Megan! I will downgrade my previous sarcastic remark to say that the possibility of Serenate is alive and well through the end of the season. But Serena’s season-finale suitor is someone entirely different — and surprising. If it’s a happy ending you’re looking for, forget it. Though Blair hears some magic words, her fall is looking increasingly shrouded in dread. Welcome to NYU, B.!

Will One Tree Hill‘s “Leyton” be back next season with mini Leyton? — Nicole
MATT:
Alas, in the days since you sent in this question, the CW confirmed that Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton will not be returning for Season 7. The silver lining is that the actors’ final outing is a solid one. TVGuide.com’s Robyn Ross, who screened the May 18 season finale, reports that the hour “wraps things up in a little bow with no shockers to leave us hanging. Old faces were back, and dreams were truly realized. Perhaps it could’ve served better as a series finale, because I’d love to think this is the way these stories would have ended.”

Let’s talk 90210who’s gonna die? — Matty
MICKEY:
Before I tell you who dies, let me ask you this, Matty: Ever see the movie Carrie? Because it’s prom time at West Bev, and Annie is doing her best Sissy Spacek impression for us. It’s harrowing; you might even say she is driven to do some very uncharacteristic things, like maybe even kill someone! Who? It’s hard to say exactly, but in the same episode, Adrianna makes a choice, Ethan makes a declaration, and Liam makes a mistake — all three of which are life-changing.





Breaking News: CMM and Burton Reportedly Leaving One Tree Hill

12 05 2009

We’ve been waiting for months to find out if it was true, and now Entertainment Weekly’s Michael Ausiello is saying it is.

Chad Michael Murray (Lucas) and Hilarie Burton (Peyton) will not return to One Tree Hill next season.

Ausiello says the official announcement won’t come til next week.

I’ll believe it then!

UPDATE: TVGuide.com says they received confirmation from The CW that neither Murray nor Burton will return.  Korbi at Zap2it says the same.





News Roundup: One Tree Hill, Gossip Girl and 90210

29 04 2009

  • Kristen Bell (Gossip Girl, Gossip Girl) says she’d love to appear on-screen.  Currently she just voices the titular character.
