Gossip Girl

I only watched one show last night - I think I am getting old.
Anyway, it was last weeks Gossip Girl and I like it. Maybe its because Blake Lively is pretty hot, maybe because it reminds me of 'Cruel Intentions' back when Sara M. Gellar was still a young up and comer who didnt get a huge ego, marry Freddy Prinze Jr. and blow off the greatest teen drama of all time for a movie career as Daphne on Scooby Doo or some torture porn whore in an haunted house.... or maybe its because it gave work to Kelly Rutherford who was totally underappreciated as Michael Mancini's hooker turned wife turned ex-wife turned girlfriend of Dr. Peter Burns on Melrose Place circa 1997. But its nice to see her acting again.
I also like this show because its on the CW which means even if only 15 people watch it, its still a hit and primed for a 3 year committment. You don't get that from any other network anymore.
Wouldn't it be nice to see a new show marked 'gauranteed' for at least a season? Then we wouldn' have the problem we had with 'The Nine' and 'Reunion' -- and this is also why I have trouble starting a lot of new shows that are quirky or have bad buzz or bad timeslots. If Brad Childress can still have his job for the rest of the year, then ABC can damn well promise me that Pushing Dasies isn't going to get yanked after 3 weeks. BTW - it starts tonight and I am very excited.

Also, someone asked me in the comments if I watch any shows with 'sexytime'. I haven't watched it yet, but some people are recommending 'Tell Me You Love Me' on HBO which chronicles the lives of three couples as they constantly fight and screw - all of it in your face in screaming hi-def. So, if that is something you might be interested in - you can find it OnDemand.
