[MarkWaldorf]

Are they airing S2 straight after or taking a break?

[BigSister]

Just edited last post and s2 starts on the friday with finishing on the wednesday so a day break

[MarkWaldorf]

Yeah, that should be it.

Oh and btw, for Gary's sake (and anyone else) here's a behind the scenes interview with Hilary Duff on the set of GG:

She reveals so much LOL! I'll be surprised if she isn't told off.

[Billy]

Does anyone know if there are like any chance of Hilary becoming a regular?

[MarkWaldorf]

Probably not. She's on it for 3/4 episodes I think.

Gossip Girl executive producer Stephanie Savage has dished some more on various topics involving our favorite characters in an interview with People.

Here's what she has to say about ...

CHUCK & BLAIR

"Chuck (Ed Westwick) and Blair (Leighton Meester) are definitely going to be a couple and stay a couple this season," Savage revealed recently.

But don't expect it to be all chocolates and roses: "Chuck and Blair in a relationship is going to be something very unique and something we haven't seen before. They have definitely found ways to not be boring." Now thatsounds interesting.

SERENA & CARTER

In last season's finale, Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) unexpectedly took off with Carter Baizen (Sebastian Stan). So, are they now a couple? Not quite.

"Something definitely happens with Carter over the summer and we see Serena and Carter deal with the fallout over that in our first few episodes," says Savage.

NATE'S NEW ROMANCE

The drama between Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford) and his grandfather continues. When Nate finds a new ladylove in Bree Buckley (Joanna Garcia), a Texas girl whose Republican family counts the Vanderbilts as political rivals, it's game on.

"It's a bit of a Romeo and Juliet romance," says Savage.

DAN'S NEW A-LIST FLING

So, how does a kid from Brooklyn score the superstar new girl?

"[Olivia Burke] (played by Hilary Duff) is a child actress who craves a normal college-girl existence and happens upon Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley), a Brooklyn hipster and cultural snob who doesn't know who she is," says Savage.

But don't count on Serena being jealous. "Dan and Serena are a lot more like siblings than former flames. It is much less romantic than it has ever been."

http://static.gossipgirlinsider.com/images/gallery/hilary-duff-penn-badgley_338x396.jpg

THE LOVE CHILD REUNION

"The Rufus-Lily-Lovechild story will definitely come [full circle] in the first part of the season," says Savage, who won't divulge any more details.

Something tells us Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr) might help it happen.

"Vanessa has someone new in her life, who may or may not be related to Dan Humphrey," hints Savage. Any guesses? Gotta be this good guy.

[MarkWaldorf]

In case you weren't excited enough for the September 14 premiere, the junior season of Gossip Girl is set to return "with a bang," Stephanie Savage promises.

“We have our big Polo match in the first episode of the season, then go to Sotheby’s for an auction in the third episode and in the fourth episode, we have a big movie premiere at Ziegfeld [Theater],” says the show’s executive producer.

What does the future hold for our favorite characters?

For Blair Waldorf, an identity crisis. Her college (NYU) is just across town from her posh Upper East Side pad, but it might as be well be across the country.

“Blair is a fish out of water,” says Savage of Leighton Meester’s character. “Now that she is going to school downtown, Vanessa and Dan are among her people."

"It’s bizarre-o world for her.”

However, Blair won’t be totally alone downtown. As promised, Georgina Sparks (Michelle Trachtenberg) will be returning - as Queen B's new roommate.

“She is not going to be in our first episode, but she will be in the second episode when our kids start college,” says Stephanie Savage of Trachtenberg.

Boyfriend Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick) will be a staple by Blair’s side throughout the season. While Chuck won’t be clocking in any school time, Savage says:

“This year, [Chuck] is really going to be focused on getting out from underneath his father’s shadow and starting his own entrepreneurial direction.”

Adding to Blair’s “shadows” downtown is off-again BFF Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively), who will also be stirring up trouble south of Central Park.

As well as locking lips with Carter Baizen (Sebastian Stan) in the first episode, Serena’ll be hooking up with designers Tory Burch and Georgina Chapman.

Savage tells us the fashion cameos have to do with fair Serena’s “decision [in terms of college] and what happens to her in the first couple of episodes.”

A reconciliation with Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley) won’t be in her future, at least not this year - he is busy romancing Olivia Burke (Hilary Duff).

Then there’s Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen), learning the ropes of Queen B.

“We really do see Jenny struggling with what she is going to do with this power that has been given to her,” says Savage. “Jenny is back at Constance and now she is a junior - the same age as our other girls when the show started."

"So we have lots of story areas for Jenny that are opening up.”

One in particular that will make a comeback is J’s fashion career: “As we get into the season, that is going to be a bigger and bigger story,” says Savage.

[BigSister]

As the summer is drawing to a close, Blair and Chuck are madly in love and adjusting to their new “in a relationship” status, breaking all the traditional rules of dating as would be expected. Serena returns from her European adventure with many secrets to hide and a complicated relationship with Carter Baizen (guest star Sebastian Stan). Nate returns from his travels with a mysterious brunette, Bree Buckley (guest star Joanna Garcia) in town. Rufus, Dan and Jenny spent the summer in the Hamptons, adjusting to the van der Woodsens' glamorous lifestyle surprisingly faster than any of them expected.


"GOSSIP GIRL" — (9:00-10:00 p.m. ET)

3x02 - "The Freshman" (CONTENT RATING TBD) (HDTV)

IS NYU READY FOR BLAIR WALDORF? / MICHELLE TRACHTENBERG RETURNS AS GEORGINA — Blair (Leighton Meester), who is determined to maintain her Queen status in college, embarks on her first day at NYU, along with Dan (Penn Badgley) and Vanessa (Jessica Szohr). Unfortunately, Georgina (guest star Michelle Trachtenberg) turns up as Blair's roommate in the dorms, determined to make Blair a social outcast. As Serena (Blake Lively) prepares to depart for Brown, she and Chuck (Ed Westwick) have a major falling out, so she recruits Chuck's enemy, Carter (guest star Sebastian Stan), to help her get even. Nate (Chace Crawford) and Bree (guest star JoAnna Garcia) decide to explore their relationship further, knowing full well it could cause tension between their families who are political rivals.

Just read the ratings for Gossip Girl season 3 premire...i'm actually quite upset because i think 2.5 million is very low for a USA drama :sad:

[Tom4784]

Yay we're getting it earlier then usual!

[MrGaryy]

^yes it is down considerably, by almost 30% on the previous premieres, but I think it's just cos S2 was a bit of a mess. I'm confident ratings will pick up as it continues.

[Tom4784]

Just read the ratings for Gossip Girl season 3 premire...i'm actually quite upset because i think 2.5 million is very low for a USA drama :sad:

It's a digital channel though, not a terrestial channel like the big hitters are. 2.5 million is a good rating.

[MrGaryy]

^well it is a good rating for a cable channel, but not great for the show. the S2 premiere got 3.4 million. but w/e it's still nothing to worry about.

[Beastie]

I have not really watched gossip girl. Is it any good?

Don't be upset because it's great for the CW.

Moving to 9pm, GOSSIP GIRL Scores Its Best Ratings Since December in Key Demos September 15, 2009 (Burbank, CA) – GOSSIP GIRL continues to grow, as The CW’s addictive drama opened its third season by outperforming its year ago season debut in the network’s target demo of women 18-34 (3.4/9 v. 3.3/10), according to Live Plus Same Day Nielsen ratings for Monday, Sept. 14, 2009. Moving to a later hour this season, GOSSIP GIRL delivered strong demos in its new 9pm time period, scoring the show’s best women 18-34 (3.4/9), adults 18-34 (2.0/5) and women 18-49 (2.2/5) since Dec. 2008. GOSSIP GIRL also posted its largest audience (2.6mil) since Jan 2009. Competitively, GOSSIP GIRL won the 9pm time period among women 18-34 and women 12-34 (3.0/8). GOSSIP GIRL also ranked second in the hour among adults 18-34 (2.0/5). Paired with ONE TREE HILL, The CW’s signature Monday finished first from 8-10p.m. with its core audience of women 18-34 (2.9/8), females 12-34 (2.6/8) and female teens (1.8/6-tie). The CW also ranked second from 8-10p.m. with adults 18-34 (1.8/5). Both GOSSIP GIRL and seventh season drama ONE TREE HILL returned last night at or above their ratings performance from May. The GOSSIP GIRL faithful returned in force, as the show improved dramatically compared to May 2008, building 31% in women 18-34 and 33% in adults 18-34. ONE TREE HILL returned just as strong as it finished season 6, virtually on par with its May ratings in women 18-34 (2.4/7), adults 18-34 (1.6/5), adults 18-49 (1.2/3).

[MarkWaldorf]

Yep it did really well.

[MrGaryy]

the new guy is cute

Simon Miller has signed on to guest star in two upcoming episodes of the hit series we love, "How to Succeed in Bassness" and "The Grandfather: Part II."

These are the seventh and eighth episodes of the current Season 3.

Miller will play an actor - famous for playing vampires - caught in a triangle between his ex-girlfriend and former co-star, Olivia Burke (recurring guest star Hilary Duff), and Dan Humphrey (Gossip Girl star Penn Badgley).

As an actor, the 25-year-old is best known for appearing in number of independent films, such as Elah & the Moon, Between Love & Goodbye, Pickman's Model, Truth Project, History of Sexuality and others.

He is also a successful fashion photographer whose work has appeared in GQ, Vogue, The New York Times Magazine and other publications.

[MarkWaldorf]

Jack Bass, devious uncle of Chuck Bass, is set to return to the show later this season, TV Guide reports, having spoken to actor Desmond Harrington.

"I will be back," says Harrington, who plays the character. "I think it's episode 15 or 16 where I show back up this year. It's fun playing Uncle Jack."

When we last saw Jack Bass, he tried to attack Lily van der Woodsen (Kelly Rutherford), who took over Bass Industries for one-time stepson Chuck.

Jack was then sent packing back to Australia with a sore jaw after being punched by Chuck. What do you think brings him back to New York City?

Hawt.

[BigSister]

Just finished watching 4-6
I liked 5 the best as it had a lot of action with the fashion show. 6 was good as well with the visit to Yale and Blair/Serenas fight. 4 I liked but i dunno it prob was my least liked to date
Onto 7-9 tommorow ^_^

[MarkWaldorf]

I love 4 :(

[BigSister]

It might be it was the first out of the 3 that i watched and therefore I wasnt feeling that good when i saw it so maybe on a rewatch it might be better. I still liked it though

[MarkWaldorf]

haha, okays!

[BigSister]

However im in a better mood today and should enjoy 7-9 better

[MarkWaldorf]

Enjoy them?

[BigSister]

haha i mean love them ^_^
I might not be able to watch 9 though depends how quick i get through 7 and 8

[BigSister]

So is anyone even going to their classes? None of them seem to be going, or even doing something remotely academic. It seems like they are all still on summer vacation, whilst at a prestigious university like NYU.
This season has become a bit ridiculous.
I like the storylines and stuff, but they could make it a bit realistic.

OMG i love Chuck and Blair. Epi 8 was good although the Jenny stuff was a little creepy. Yay for Nate though
Epi 9 was good as well and I liked the Blair/Chuck./Serena stuff chasing Emma. The fashion stuff was good as well
Epi 7 was prob the weakest but I still liked it. . But im also not a big Vanessa fan though so maybe thats why

Joshua Safron (Gossip Girl writer) did an interview just before S3 and said that it was never their intention to show them in a lesson/classroom. So I don't think we'll be seeing them in one, but Blair did mention on the phone to Chuck that she could skip French, so I guess they have began.

Stephanie has always been proud of the fact that we have never entered a classroom in the show. And I agree with her because the show is not about school - and it never was, so in that way the show isn't changing. The show has always been about kids and their families in New York. It's just now viewed through the prism of a time of change.

[MrGaryy]

I'm absolutely loving series 3 the best yet I think, a definite improvement on S2. I love every storyline. It was nice to finally see that C&B dynamic we've been waiting for since they got together in E3. I really like Carter too, I have a feeling Bree is going to break Nate's heart.

I hated the whole Bree and Nate storyline, it felt like another filler for Nate because he's useless tbh. But the Bree/Carter thing at the end seems promising.

LOL Becca, tbh I didn't see it from episode 1 so good spot! :hugesmile:

Yeah I think it was the whole thing at the end of epi 1 just after Serena/Dan/Jenny had gone off in the taxi they were standing outrside and i just thought they could work but i didnt realise till i was looking at old posts on here

[BigSister]

I liked epi 15 i think the best tonight. Felt a bit sorry for Serena, Dan m jenny and Eric though at the Brunch. And also Blair when Chuck was with those girls. Wonder what will happen to S/D now as they know about the baby
Epi 14 was good as well Chuck on the roof!
Epi 13 was good too in fact I dont think i hated any of those 3

[MarkWaldorf]

[BigSister]

LOL when Georginas phone went off with the religious music. These last 2 episodes have been great

[MarkWaldorf]

I told you it returns to form!

[Firewire]

OMFG!

Hilary and Tyra were amazing!

Can't wait for Ep 5.

[MarkWaldorf]

Ep 5 looks amazinggg!

[MarkWaldorf]

Even Blair Waldorf might take the subway if her reward on the other end was a Lady Gaga concert. The singer is filming an upcoming episode of Gossip Girl today on the Lower East Side, in which she'll perform as herself!

We imagine she'll be debuting some original Gossip Girl music on the show, which is pretty cool for Gossip Girl, whether you're a fan of Lady Gaga or not.

The New York Daily News reported the NYC native's guest role today. Are you excited for more star power coming to the Upper ... er, Lower East Side?

[BigSister]

Aww the finale was great. And yay for Blair/Chuck ^_^

[MarkWaldorf]

Yay you finished!

[Zac]

The Gossip Girl episode starring Lady Gaga is called "The Last Days of Disco Stick" and will air on November 16th.

[MarkWaldorf]

I read that title weeks ago and knew it had something to do with Gaga! I was right :D

[Zac]

Cool! Can't wait for the 16th now!

[Zac]

Are there any pics of Gaga at the set of GG?

[MarkWaldorf]

I don't think so. The CW will probably try and keep it secret. I'll have a look now.

[Zac]

Okay, thanks!

[Zac]

I wonder if Gaga dies in GG, as her theme right now is fame "killing"?

[MarkWaldorf]

LOL no, lets leave that for bree buckely pls.

and no theres no candids. :(

[BigSister]

haha I thought that as well
Im looking forward to epi 2 ^_^

[Zac]

:( never mind, eh.

[MarkWaldorf]

the cw release promos early so we could get episode stills soon!

[Zac]

Nice!

[MarkWaldorf]

Loved this weeks episode!

[BigSister]

oh epi 2 was great. Loved Blair trying to ruin Georginas party by invinting her christian friends and Dan being popular.
Also vanessa and scott is freaking me out a little
and I still love Chuck and Blair ^_^

[MarkWaldorf]

Posh Spice, a.k.a. Victoria Beckham, has landed a guest starring role on Gossip Girl and will arrive in New York Wednesday to shoot scenes for the hit show.

“I’m beyond obsessed with Gossip Girl,” she has said.

Becks is just the latest high-profile guest star this season on the CW drama, which has some of TV's lowest ratings, yet possibly the greatest buzz. Go figure.

Tory Burch, Tyra Banks, Hilary Duff (in a major story arc) and the Sonic Youth have already appeared, and Lady Gaga will perform on an upcoming episode.

No word yet on whether Victoria will play herself or actually try to act. Maybe she'll play a former pop star who turns into a cyborg. Or Gossip Girl herself!

Either way, Blake Lively won't have the only huge breasts on the show that week!

[BigSister]

Enjoyed epi 4 and liked Hilary Duff as well i thought she was annoying but i like her now
Epi 3 was a bit meh thats why i havent really wrote in here till now but epi 4 was better

[MarkWaldorf]

I thought episode 3 was better than 4 :p

[BigSister]

well we cant all like the same ^_^

[BigSister]

Aww i liked the wedding. Was simple but I think thats pretty realistic
Georgina was good in this episode and I liked Chuck he makes me laugh so much the way he is. I cant believe I didnt like him in the first series I think hes my favourite now

[Callum]

The threesome pics :love:

[Firewire]

The 3some was absolutley rubbish.

[Callum]

How long is Hilary on the show for?

[Firewire]

How long is Hilary on the show for?

I think the next ep is her last.

[Stephanie]

ee i love gg

[BigSister]

The toast episode was ok felt a bit sorry for Blair though when it came on the tannoy
I dunno what to think about Olivia now at first I liked her but now shes starting to annoy me a bit. Nates growing the same way on me now as well. But vanessas growing on me at first I thought she was annoying but now she seems to be kinda ok.

[CaraRawr]

I hate Olivia :/

[BigSister]

looks like we have the same taste then ^_^

[Wildcat!]

I just watched yerterdays episode. Pretty good. It just seems to me this season, everything that happens is so predictable, you can see it a mile away. The fallout from the threesome, the whole thing with Nate, Blair and trip in the bar, they are all so obvious.

And on a side note, that Vanessa girl is 100 times hotter than all the girls on that show. :)

[Tom4784]

I'm not liking this series, it's so boring.

[MarkWaldorf]

I think I've given up :(

[Wildcat!]

I think I've given up :(

I know right? YOu always know exactly whats gonna happen. The other seasons, were so much more unpredictable.

[Vladimir]

This season sucks!!! I will be watching this season on summer, I have no patience now.

[Callum]

I think I've given up :(

What???? :shocked:

I love this season, Jenny is such a bitch to Eric. I loved the Gaga episode. :dance:

[Sophii3x]

I'm getting soo annoyed at this series so far. I'm hating half the characters, the storylines are way too predictable.. and I hate to say it but it's starting to get boring.

There's a MASSIVE difference between this series and series 1. When GG started it was quite indie and unique with the clothes and everything and now they're trying everything to make it more mainstream and hip. I feel that the show is losing losing the spark that it had during series 1 and 2 :( I still LOVE Chuck and Blair though (obviously)

[BigSister]

If anyone is still watching(Which i doubt as it took me ages to find it) GG is back in America tonight, I might try watching again as I have nothing better to do lol

[MarkWaldorf]

i've caught up on a few episodes. i'm about to watch episode 10 now.

i'm really hoping i can get back into it because it's still my favourite show ever.

[Callum]

It's on ITV2 on Wednesday, pretty surprised at how quickly it's being aired over here. I can't wait though, seems like so long since GG's been on!

[MarkWaldorf]

damien is SO hot.

[BigSister]

really Callum thats good i wasnt expecting it to be aired for a few weeks

[Firewire]

Can't wait for the new episode!

[Stephanie]

same.

[Jessica.]

:)

[MrGaryy]

I am SO excited for the finale, it looks amazing.

[Jessica.]

I finished watching the first season today and I have just started watching the first episode of season 2 right now. :tongue:

[CaraRawr]

omg jess your avatar. <3 they're my favourite fictional couple ever.

[Vladimir]

omg. what a season finale. chuck. :O new georgina & dan storyline :O

[Firewire]

I'm downloading the finale episode now. I can't wait to see it! You some sort of ****'s going down when Georgina Sparks is around!

[Firewire]

Just finished watching the season finale. It was really sad :(.

So many shockers and 'OMGs'.

I hope Chuck's OK and I wonder if Georgina's lying about Dan being the father of her unborn child.

[Callum]

I can't wait to see the finale tomorrow, loved GG for years now. :love: The third series has been epic although I know loads have hated it - I just love Jenny.
