Padalove. Also: Spin, Gossip Girl, Spin

Dear Jared: Love, Fandom. Go give the big guy some love! :D

In more mind-boggling news, the creators of Gossip Girl are apparently putting the 'spin' in 'spinoff' with plans for a spinoff of the CW series. The Hollywood Reporter calls Gossip Girl "popular".( Dear Hollywood Reporter: You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.) The article does concede that though the show has "a devoted following and significant cultural buzz, its ratings are pretty modest." You think? The CW advertising staff is using the "act as if" principle -- act as if the show has the ratings, and the media will come fawn over it -- and it seems to be working. That's the only reason I can come up with that a show that averages three million viewers or less would get the kind of attention Gossip Girl is getting.

In conclusion, go give Jared Padalecki some love. :)

I dunno what's more surprising...that you're talking about Gossip Girl...OR THAT YOU WATCH AND ARE TALKING ABOUT GOSSIP GIRL...

Honestly, I'm more interested in how the media is spinning GG to make it look like a hit show, when it's the fourth- or fifth-ranked show on the fifth-place network. The show itself is not terrible, but really not worth the buzz it's created.
