So you enjoy watching twenty-somethings play rich spoiled teenagers? Well Gossip Girl is for you. This show is one of those addiction series that you don't really tell others you watch, but secretly enjoy. Well I am letting the cat out of the bag. This is one of my secret addictions. It is one of the best teen dramas to come out in the last twenty years and it definitely helped that it was created by Josh Schwartz who created a wrote for The OC (oh and Chuck).
The show is based on the New York Times bestselling novels of the same name about a group of teenagers living in New York City which I will also admit I read as a youngin, which I might have continued to read as the came out with I was a bit over the young adult age limit. The series doesn't really line up with the novels, but still has the rich spoiled lives of teenagers aroma that made the novels so popular. Think The OC only set in Upper Eastside New York City. Anyways, the first season wasn't able to pull in the number of viewers that it wanted, but after some risque sexually charged promos after the writers strike, the viewership increased. The second season starts next month and I am pretty pumped to see what's in store.
