More “OC” Gossip
By Beth in TV, The OC, pilot on May 15 2007In light of all this pilot/Fall line-up talk, the relatively newly formed CW (UPN+WB) channel has greenlighted “Gossip Girl,” a show that revolves are the lives of rich kids attending a prep school in NYC. Funny I thought that show sounded oddly familiar so I looked it up and came up with this: The Bedford Diaries, “The OC” and just about every other show that’s tried to ride the coattails of success of “Dawson’s Creek” in the past five years.
Not surprisingly, “OC” creator Josh Schwartz has signed on for the project, which was initially slated for a film release and had “Gilmore Girls” creator Amy Sherman-Palladino helming it and Lindsay Lohan starring in the lead role.
Alas, at least “One Tree Hill” is coming back and possibly “Veronica Mars.” What would we do without the presence of young, photogenic, privileged, affluent kids to drool over all night?
So on that note, I’ll leave you with the wonderfully funny (but only if you used to watch “The OC”) SNL spoof of the series finale for the show.
