Gossip Girl
My newest not-so-guilty pleasure. I thought all the good had gone out of the world once "The OC" rolled into a third season and started sucking something horrible. But oh, Josh, Schwartz, I knew you'd be back and better than ever at making high schoolers speak like cynical pop culture professors and dress like they walked straight off the runway at Fashion Week. The story lines, unsurprisingly, are very similar to those experienced by our dearly departed friends in Newport Beach. I'm two thirds of the way through the first season (so no spoilers please!) and so far I don't like it as much as "The OC," but it's still shamelessly entertaining. Dan Humphrey is no Seth Cohen and Rufus Humphrey no Sandy Cohen, but those two characters leave impossibly big shoes to fill (Converse sneakers and Brooks Brothers loafers, respectively).
