Gossip Girl Countdown: Two Weeks to Go
My Monday nights have definitely been lacking a certain something since Gossip Girl went into repeats a month ago. But it's starting to seem like we've made it through the worst, as it's just two more weeks till the Upper East Siders are snarking all over my screen again. To celebrate, I've got a quick new look at what's to come, but before that, here's a quick roundup of what we know will be happening when GG finally returns on March 16:
- Tamara Feldman will be back as Poppy Lifton, Serena's socialite friend, for four episodes.
- She'll factor into Serena's torrid new love affair that may be at least partially inspired by Anne Hathaway's life.
- That will also help trigger the return of Georgina Sparks — as a reformed hippie?
- Another on the list of returning recurring characters: Carter Baizen (Sebastian Stan).
- No Doubt will appear on the show's May 11 episode, otherwise known as the young Lily flashback episode, performing Adam and the Ants' "Stand and Deliver" — though it's unclear if they'll be present-day No Doubt or an '80s throwback.
- Oh yeah — and we still have to see some exes kissing (yeah, there be spoilers).
Brittany Snow Cast as Lily in Gossip Girl Spinoff
Casting rumors about the new Gossip Girl spinoff swirled earlier today and now we've got some confirmation: Brittany Snow has been offered the role of young Lily!
We already knew Krysten Ritter would be playing her older sister, and in addition to finding Lily, the show's creators also cast Shiloh Fernandez as Owen, "a hot Valley punk guy with a caustic wit." Here's a new rundown of the show's plot from The Hollywood Reporter:
Overnight, Lily has to transition from a life of luxury and education at a wealthy Montecito boarding school to living deep in the San Fernando Valley she once made fun of and going to public school.
Which Do You Prefer: No Doubt or Gwen Stefani's Solo Stuff?
Some music news today: No Doubt is planning to regroup for an album and a tour. In an IM conversation on their site, guitarist Tom Dumont wrote "I have cabin fever. Maybe we should play some shows or something," to which Gwen Stefani responded, "I think we should go out now.

90210 vs. Melrose Place: Which Was More Scandalous?
This week's 90210 and Melrose Place combo don't have a ton of shocking moments, but it's obvious both shows are gearing up for major stuff to go down. (Like a drug bust, murder arrest, and Heather Locklear, for instance?!) We do, however, get some nice moments between the characters. Teddy, for one, is acting like an angel — although I can't tell if it's sincere, because I've made it a rule not to trust a guy who ties sweaters over his shoulders.
The Box: An Inadequate Package to Unwrap
I so wanted The Box to be a worthy successor to Donnie Darko, director Richard Kelly's first film and much-appreciated cult fave. Unfortunately, I didn't exactly get my wish.
The Box is a highly stylized, good-looking thriller, from the retro 1976 Virginia setting to the Barbie and Ken looks of leads Cameron Diaz and James Marsden.
TV Tonight: V Premiere
The Visitors are coming! Tonight, V invades ABC with an updated redo of the eighties sci-fi series. I'm still somewhat confused over why the network is splitting up the season into two separate installments (the first four episodes now; the rest in March), but you can bet I'll be watching to assess if the show is worth following into Spring.
Movie Preview: Matt Damon in Green Zone
Matt Damon is officially a Hollywood juggernaut. Not only does he have a ton of movies in the works (a Liberace biopic, an Eastwood film, and as of today a new project with the Coen brothers), and here's a peek at his upcoming thriller Green Zone. Even though I've been anxiously awaiting a fourth Bourne installment, Green Zone looks like a worthy substitute for the time being.
90210 vs. Melrose Place: Which Was More Scandalous?
Tuesday night's soapy dramas packed several surprises into this week's episodes — 90210 introduces a whole new character to love (or hate) and Sasha drops a bomb on Dixon; while over on Melrose, Riley and Jonah's seemingly perfect relationship is quickly unraveling. But the biggest surprise of all? Ella was nice.
