About Gossip Girl
The privileged prep school teens on Manhattan's Upper East Side first learn that Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively, "The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants" is back in town the way they learn all the important news in their lives -- from the blog of the allknowing albeit ultra-secretive Gossip Girl. No one knows Gossip Girl's identity, but everyone in this exclusive and complicated vicious circle relies on her website and text messages for the latest scoop. Even Serena's closest friend, Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester, "Entourage", is surprised to find that Serena has suddenly ended her selfimposed exile to boarding school and returned to Manhattan.
Once the Upper East Side's most notorious party girl, Serena's reasons for returning are mysterious, although they may have something to do with her younger brother Eric (Connor Paolo, "Alexander". Whatever the reasons, the change in Serena is obvious, especially to Blair, whose friendship with Serena has always been competitive and difficult. When Serena was out of the picture, Blair enjoyed her time in the spotlight and she has no intention of going back to living in Serena's shadow. Their uneasy relationship is further complicated by Blair's boyfriend Nate (Chace Crawford, "The Covenant", a young man uneasy with all the privileges that have been handed to him by his high-powered father Howie "The Captain" Archibald (Sam Robards, "The West Wing". Now that Serena is back, Blair will have to fight to hold onto Nate's attention. It also remains to be seen whether Blair's loyal lieutenants -- Katy (newcomer Nan Zhang) and Isabel (newcomer Nicole Fiscella) -- will remain by her side or break ranks to follow Serena.
The tension between Blair and Serena isn't lost on anyone in this crowd, since they all live for gossip and scandal -- along with fashion, shopping and partying in Manhattan's trendiest hot spots. This is a world you have to be born into, full of wealth, power, and people like Chuck (Ed Westwick, "Children of Men". A friend of Nate's since childhood, Chuck leads a reckless life, and constantly pushes Nate to explore his dark side.
The proverbial fish-out-of-water at the prep school are Dan (Penn Badgley, "John Tucker Must Die," "The Bedford Diaries" and his sister Jenny (Taylor Momsen, "Paranoid Park," "How The Grinch Stole Christmas", middle-class kids whose background keeps them on the fringes of this exclusive clique. Dan and Jenny are attending the school at the insistence of their father Rufus (Matthew Settle, "Into The West", a former rocker turned art gallery owner, determined to give his kids a first-class education. Rufus has a history with Serena's mother Lily (Kelly Rutherford, "Melrose Place", a socialite who hides her past as a dancer and rock groupie. When a chance encounter brings Dan to Serena's attention, he suddenly finds himself dating the girl of his dreams. The more Dan discovers about the real Serena, the more he's challenged to make sense of her world. Dan's sister Jenny is the youngest of the group and wants desperately to be accepted. The price she'll have to pay for popularity will take a toll, but at the moment, Jenny is just thrilled to have entry into this glamorous world.
Dan and Serena's relationship is further complicated by the arrival of Dan's friend Vanessa, a Brooklyn rebel and loner who doesn't approve of Serena's world of money, fashion shows and fundraisers. Vanessa's attempts to pull him back to his roots will cause friction between Dan and Serena.
Keeping track of the shifting friendships, jealousies and turmoil in this wealthy and complex world isn't easy, but it's what Gossip Girl does best.

New article comparing it to the O.C. Gossip Girl aims to replace iconic TV show The O.C. Grant Wallace Issue date: 10/10/07 Section: Arts and Entertainment
After The O.C.'s demise early this year, fans were either extremely upset or saw that it was a much needed move due to season four's fall in viewer ship.
Despite the final episodes lacking in what the show originally had (RIP Marissa), I was distraught and immediately went to the boards to see what was going to happen next.
Director Josh Schwartz had signed on to do a new show, Gossip Girl. Based off the popular book series by Cecily von Ziegesar, the show follows the life of the upper class angst ridden teenagers bent on, you guessed it, the latest gossip.
For those of you who are shaking your heads now, I ask you put this down, because you're not about to like what I have to say.
Despite the shows offsetting premise, it won't take but an episode for you to get over it. Three episodes in, I'm quite positive this will replace the weekly Wednesday night O.C. parties I use to have with my friends. And although the show won't be as good as its predecessor (let's face it, Adam Brody can never be replaced), all of The O.C.'s best aspects are here.
The witty humor, the selection of music (Cold War Kids and Feist have been featured), and of course, the girls. Leighton Meester is a knockout, and for the ladies, new up and comer Penn Badgley steals the spotlight.
The plot bases around Serena van der Woodsen and her mysterious return to the Big City. Serena's return has caused much controversy among the gossip lovers as they report all their latest drama online for everyone to gawk over.
The narrator of the show reports the latest news, which at first started to get on my nerves, but I soon gave in as it made good leeway for ending a scene in time for commercials. Outside of that minor problem, the only other notable issue is the lack of authenticity from the books. I was told that the books were quite different then some of the scenes portrayed in the show, which for any avid reader might come as a turn off.
If you're still a little uncertain if this show may be too girly or childish for you, I can safely say this show is for a much more mature audience then your average Degrassi viewer.
It's a grittier O.C., built on jealousy and revenge, instead of love and scandal. Bottom line, if you're a girl, chances are you like to gossip, and well, this show is for you.
And if you're a guy like myself, well.. unless you're comfortable getting a few demasculating remarks from your guy friends, I'd probably pass on this. Catch Gossip Girl Wednesday nights at 9 p.m. on the CW.
