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

18 03 2009
  • Jossip has a very un-complimentary look at some CW actresses, including Shannen Doherty (Brenda, 90210), Jennie Garth (Kelly, 90210), Kelly Rutherford (Lily, Gossip Girl) and Mischa Barton (Sonja, A Beautiful Life).
  • Annie (Shenae Grimes, 90210) is getting a new enemy in Phoebe, to be played by Lily Collins.

  • Jessica Lucas (Kimberly, 90210) has been cast in the Melrose Place remake.
  • Photos surfaced of Blair (Leighton Meester) kissing Nate (Chace Crawford) and Chuck (Ed Westwick) in the same outfit.  E!Online is wondering if it’s just to throw fans off.  You decide.  Or just wait for the episode to air!  (A similar photo of Blair and Chuck is in the March 30th issue of PEOPLE.)
  • In the same PEOPLE issue, there’s also a tiny photo of Taylor Momsen (Jenny, Gossip Girl) and her “idol” singer Debbie Harry.
  • Also in that issue, Sebastian Stan (Carter, Gossip Girl) doesn’t confirm or deny that he’s engaged to Meester.  He just says “I don’t pay attention [to reports].  My friends trust my word above anything else they hear.”
  • Westwick is included in a TVGuide.com photo gallery of “Foreign Actors with Great American Accents.”
  • No Doubt will appear as Snowed Out in the May 11th episode of Gossip Girl as part of the Lily flashback.
  • Josh Schwartz talks about the Gossip Girl spin-off here but it’s nothing we don’t already know.
  • Nikki Reed (Sadie, The O.C.) says she goes to Jennie Garth’s (Kelly, Beverly Hills 90210) house to play poker with her Twilight co-star and Garth’s husband, Peter Facinelli.
  • There’s a strange promo for next week’s One Tree Hill with the cast appearing as characters from The Sims.
  • The New York Post deemed student-teacher relationships on TV the “Pacey Witter Effect.”




News Roundup: 90210 and One Tree Hill

28 02 2009
  • The Hollywood Reporter has an article on Rebecca Rand Kirshner Sinclair taking charge at 90210.
  • TMZ is reporting that Adam Gregory (Ty, 90210) is being sued by his former manager for missing wages.
  • Like the rest of us, TVGuide.com is wondering if Hilarie Burton (Peyton, One Tree Hill) will be back next season.
  • The makers of the OTH Podcast have a set up a voicemail where you can leave messages for Burton.  You just need to call 828-398-0310 before March 1.  They also ask that you take this poll.




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.




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.

As if the promo for next week’s One Tree Hill didn’t make it obvious, Lucas will cast 5 people to play himself, Peyton, Brooke, Nathan and Haley in his movie.

This getting a little too like The Creek for me but you know I’ll still be watching nonetheless.
