Gossip Girl vs. The O.C.

How could I NOT give this show a chance? It's from the creator of 'The O.C.' (Josh Schwartz) and he toted along his music supervisor (Alex Patsavas, who also does 'Grey's Anatomy'). The Hills has been boring me to tears, so I was due for some quality manufactured drama... and stylish characters.

My take? (I never read the books, just FYI)

The rivalry between Blair and Serena seems weird. I'm going to need more backstory to understand.
Dan Humphrey = Seth Cohen. You don't think he's cute at first glance and then he does the shy/nerdy/good guy thing and you're like *melt*
Lily van der Woodsen looks a little TOO much like the Cohen ma. I'm just sayin'.
Nate Archibald = a more attractive Ryan Atwood. Except he's not from Chino. But he does spend a lot of time "giving looks" instead of talking.
Chuck = evil sleaze! A hot, hot, hot evil sleaze! Hahah.
I like that Kristen Bell ('Veronica Mars') narrates, but I keep expecting to see her round a corner and be like "let me solve your mystery!"
How do they get their hands on that much alcohol? Aren't they in high school?
Why do TV dramas about high school kids always make me feel like I was hella immature in high school? Kay maybe I was, whatev.

If the promise of some good rich-kid tv drama doesn't entice you, maybe this cast will. They be pretty to look at.

Who's down to join me for Wednesday night 'Gossip'?

	xsynysterx: 09/20/2007 2:59 PM I didn't get to see the whole premiere last night, but I can tell I'm gonna love this show.
	xdrowningxlessonsx: 09/20/2007 3:23 PM Man, Gossip Girl is now on my favourite shows list, right under "The Office." But seriously, they could of gave us more info on B and S. Also I must say I find the Jenny character pretty pointless, but what happened with her and Chuck, come on, seriously. She pretty much knew who he was and she could of saw that happnening.

I honestly think Jenny exists so we like her brother more. He is so cute when he's being protective!!!
	thinkofhotpink: 09/20/2007 3:30 PM I'm a big fan of gossip girls I've read all of them and loved them all as for the show id probably would have liked the show if i hadn't have read the books the books are so much better the shows kinda sucks in comparison. -you cant leave out a whole major character not to mention sum up the whole first book in one show and miss half of the storyline and change major events plus the characters are a lot more detailed i can go on and on and on with a lists of things that don't make sense between the show and the book

	Madison: 09/20/2007 3:48 PM Honestly I like the show but it's nothing like the book. They left out so many important details and I don't think they did made the right choices when they chose who would play who.

	xnaatalie: 09/20/2007 4:19 PM jenny is SOO different in the books.. its weird. and the whole suicidal brother situation of serena's isn't in the book either. but i like it! its so goood. this show is definatly one of my favourites. and i agree.. the hills is losing its touch. :(
	sippycup: 09/20/2007 4:28 PM I was pretty disappointed with the show.I didnt like the actor who played Nate,he was way too much like a Ryan Atwood..and the filming seemed pretty raw to me,ya know?Like have you guys seen the show Passions?how its all..I dunno,raw/blury?It felt a bit like that.Or im crazy..i dunno But the books are so much better
	mistressdhariana: 09/20/2007 4:37 PM "# Dan Humphrey = Seth Cohen. You don't think he's cute at first glance and then he does the shy/nerdy/good guy thing and you're like melt" i agree:]

I dont know if they needed to make it THAT blurry to let us know it was a flashback, though
	canadianxindie: 09/20/2007 4:43 PM i loved gossip girl.. you guys in the states only saw it last night? it plays tuesday nights in canada. :) but i think it will definitly rival the OC. already i just want it to be tuesday again!! and jenny = sooo hot right
	canadianxindie: 09/20/2007 4:46 PM oh yea, and dan does = seth cohen, except he can punch and is hottER, somehow. and they get all the alcohol cause they're rich most likely, so the bars just serve them. they addressed it really breifly...
	ldphoto: 09/20/2007 4:48 PM I only watched like 5 minutes of the show because I had other things I needed to get done, but the guy who plays Dan is ADOREABLE! And the books are really good. :D
