While I think “Gossip Girl” itself is a hit, I’m not diggin to much on the concept of this spin off they’re planning. Ew.com is stating that they’re planning to spin it off in May 2009,and the preface will be on a young Lily van der Woodsen’s teen years in 1980 Los Angeles, but the last time I checked,she was just a supporting character that’s playing backup to the interesting ones on “Gossip Girl”.
The only thing that sounded good to me about the spin off is that Brittany Snow would be playing the lead role which if the show did work,it would be because of her. I loved her in “Prom Night” by the way. It was excellent. Apparently they will also be bringing in character’s from their previous Fox hit , The O.C. The focus being that she crossed paths with Kirsten Nichol and Jimmy Cooper. I don’t know. It just seems like a shot in the dark to me. I do know it would have to take on a totally unique preface than Gossip Girl’s,and if they managed to pull that off and have people like it. What kind of future could they produce from this kind of show ? Would they follow young Lily into her adult life all the way until she gives birth to the “Gossip Girl” kids. I mean come on, Lily van der Woodsen ? Give me a break.
I do think they could do something good with Brittany Snow,and whoever else, and make it an interesting show for a little while. I just don’t see it really going anywhere, longevity wise. I think the creators of “Gossip Girl” just need keep their energies focused on making “Gossip Girl” better than it already is.
