Josh Schwartz Steps Into the Sitcom Ring
We all know and love Josh Schwartz as the mastermind behind The O.C., Gossip Girl, and Chuck, and now he's ready to take on something new. Along with fellow Chuck producer Matt Miller, Schwartz is in the process of writing a pilot for a half-hour sitcom for CBS about a just-married couple in their twenties.
Now that How I Met Your Mother is heading into what's presumably it's final seasons, this could be the perfect time for Schwartz to bring something new to CBS.

First Look: Rockville, CA
From The OC to Gossip Girl, every Josh Schwartz project has always used great music — usually thanks to the handiwork of superstar music supervisor Alexandra Patsavas. Now, the two are teaming up for a new online series called Rockville, CA, an online soap for theWB.com set in a fictional rock club.
From the look of this trailer, all the standard Schwartz components are present: hipsters, snappy (if occasionally cheesy) dialogue, possible bar fights, and lots of making out.

News on the Gossip Girl spinoff and Amy Poehler show was just the start of the good stuff to come out of NBC's TCA session yesterday. I also got some news on Chuck and the post-Super Bowl episode of The Office. Read on for details:

Josh Schwartz Spills Secrets on the Gossip Girl Spinoff
I was full of questions after hearing that Gossip Girl's long-rumored spinoff was going to be focused on young Lily — so it was a pleasant surprise to see the gossip guy himself, executive producer Josh Schwartz, turn up at NBC's TCA party on Thursday night. Read on to find out what I learned:
- Pay attention to the next-to-last episode of Gossip Girl this season. That's when the spinoff characters will be introduced, Schwartz said.
Gossip Girl Spinoff News: It's All About Lily!
OK, this news is blowing my dome on so many levels. First of all, the news itself:
After months of gossip and speculation, [Gossip Girl] creators/exec producers Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage are proceeding with a spinoff that will serve as a prequel to the hot sophomore drama and chronicle the wild teen years of Lily van der Woodsen (Kelly Rutherford) in Los Angeles in the 1980s.
So.

Josh Schwartz Signs On for Teen-Focused X-Men
I loved the first couple of movies in the X-Men series (not so much the 2006 Brett Ratner installment, but hey, we all make mistakes), and I'm a big fan of Josh Schwartz's snappy TV writing, so this seems like it could be a perfect fit: Schwartz has signed on to write X-Men: First Class, a film focusing on a younger group of X-folk. Schwartz could also direct the movie, though he so far hasn't taken Fox up on the option.
According to Variety, the idea is to focus on the younger characters — Rogue, Iceman, Kitty Pryde, etc.
Which Josh Schwartz Show Are You Watching Tonight?
