  • Joanna Garcia (Bree, Gossip Girl) will star in an untitled pilot for ABC.
  • EW.com has a great interview with Kerr Smith (Jack, Dawson’s Creek). Lots of DC stuff.

  • Just found this fabulous interview with Josh Schwartz (creator, The O.C.) that covers a ridiculously awesome amount of information about the show.

  • There’s been several news stories the past few days about Brian Austin Green (David, Beverly Hills 90210) supposedly tweeting that he and Megan Fox are engaged again. I haven’t posted any of them because I knew the account was fake (it’s been on my fake list in the Twitter Directory for months) but unfortunately several news organizations ran with it without bothering to check with his publicist whether the account was legit. Thanks to GossipCop, it is finally getting out there that this was just one big deception. I hope those other news orgs. are embarrassed and ashamed–and I hope the poser is as well.
  • Zap2it has a slightly different version of the Jennie Garth (Kelly, Beverly Hills 90210) quote I linked to yesterday. Yesterday’s said she was done with 90210 “for a while” whereas today’s says she’s been done for a while.
  • Thrilled for Christy-Anne at the press coverage her One Tree Hill Reunion is getting. So bummed my trip didn’t work out.

  • BuddyTV, TVGuide.com and Starpulse have interviews with Robert Buckley (Clay, One Tree Hill).
  • Examiner.com has an interview with Lindsey McKeon (Taylor, One Tree Hill). Have you read my interview with her?
  • TVGuideMagazine.com has what they’re calling an “exclusive” Gossip Girl spoiler but we already know about this. There’s just 1 or 2 more specific details given.
  • Philly.com has an article on Kerr Smith (Jack, Dawson’s Creek). TVGuide.com and About.com have interviews with him. (In the former, he speaks well of DC and in the latter he says another show he did–E-ring–is his favorite).
  • This review of Life Unexpected, which stars Smith, references The O.C.

  • Just found out Jessica Szohr (Vanessa, Gossip Girl) stars in Daughtry’s music video for “Over You.” This song meant the world to me a few years ago so I decided to look up the video on a whim and there she was!

  • Be sure to check out The CW’s site for all the new video content this week.
  • Last night’s One Tree Hill (2.7 million viewers rounded up) and Gossip Girl (2.4  million viewers rounded up) saw a great increase in the ratings compared to last week. One Tree Hill matched its season-high, and The CW sent out a press release touting that and Gossip Girl’s increases in the key demographics.
  • Examiner.com has an interview with Austin Nichols (Julian, One Tree Hill).  I love what he says about The Notebook.  It’s both kind of sweet in an idealistic way and funny in a realistic way.  By the way, have you read my interview with Nichols?
  • MTV picked up The Notebook comments as well. It’s even more interesting when you consider that Bethany Joy Galeotti (Haley, One Tree Hill) is adapting the movie into a musical.  That’s what Lee Norris (Mouth) was referring to in our interview.
  • The One Tree Hill Connection has a new podcast with an interview with Mike Grubbs of WakeyWakey who played, um, Grubbs in last night’s episode.
  • PEOPLE.com has a poll asking if the Gossip Girl threesome was “too sexy or too safe.”
  • The Parents Television Council released a new statement in response to the episode.
  • I really enjoyed TVGuideMagazine.com‘s take on the threesome and Variety has an interesting comparison to Two and a Half Men.
  • Gossip Girl has been nominated for Favorite TV Obsession and Blake Lively (Serena) was nominated for Favorite TV Drama Actress in the People’s Choice Awards, where fans actually vote for the winners.
  • In case you missed my coverage, Dawson’s Creek: The Complete Series was released on DVD today.  They also finally updated the Web site!
  • Just noticed that James Van Der Beek (Dawson, Dawson’s Creek) tweeted about the Chad Michael Murray (Charlie, Dawson’s Creek; Lucas, One Tree Hill) comments at the Paley panel.
  • In advance of its January premiere, EW.com is already telling readers to watch Life UneXpected, which stars Kerr Smith (Jack, Dawson’s Creek).
  • Adam Brody (Seth, The O.C.) says he tried doing his own singing for Jennifer’s Body but they didn’t like his voice.

Turns out the show is jumping ahead MORE than a year–14 months, to be exact.  And Schwahn says it’s possible for Leyton to return.  Also says the show returns with Jamie’s 7th birthday, which means his birthdays have been celebrated on the show at 3 different times during the year.
