Gossip Girl Turned Reality TV Show

Gossip Girl Turned Reality TV Show

Casting call fliers for a “Gossip Girl reality TV series” are currently being handed out in Manhattan neighborhoods. Spies over at TV Guide spotted fliers being handed out on the Upper West Side.

Here’s what the casting flier says:

“Are you the real Gossip Girl? Maybe an adorable Seth Cohen (The O.C.) prepster who hates TV? Either way, we’d love to chat with you. We’re looking for NYC prep-schoolers for a reality show [to air on] a major youth-oriented network.”

MTV? The CW? Nickelodeon?

I’m sure if they put it on MTV it would do fine. But do we really need another scripted reality show? no.

The whole Laguna Beach thing is played out, that was a onetime thing and everyone I know is sick of that type of stuff.

I think it will be a hit.

Think of all the kids who loved Laguna Beach.
New York and rich kids will always be a famous combination.

this reeks of MTV from a mile away. they did the same with “The OC”. i knew they would try it with “Gossip Girl” sooner or later.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

I want to say it will be a flop, but if Laguna Beach is any indication, it will be a huge hit. :(

Thumb up Thumb down 0

FLOP because you know the really old money don’t actually talk about it.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

if they did do this, it woud be best on mtv.
cuz it would be weird on cw.
and nickelodeon? they have no shows like that.
plus if they really make it like gossip girl, like sex and stuff
then its deffff. not for nick!

Thumb up Thumb down 0

Thumb up Thumb down 0

Hit
but to it be more interesting,you have to put prep-schoolers from all of the world. It’s will be fun .
That’s what I think.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

ugh there are way too many shows like this.
a definite FLOP! don’t do it.
ugh seriously, it’ll ruin gossip girl.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

This is stupid! stupid stupid stupid! Sadly, it was bound to happen. How different can it be from Laguna Beach excpet the setting? It’ll be a hit, which says alot about America.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

must they ruin every show with an idiotic reality counterpart. at least their turning away from my neighborhhood, those of us that actually live in the REAL orange county are getting tired of it. my condolences to all those non attention whores in NYC, cuz you are next. and trust me it sux!!!

unfortunately it would be a hit.
gossip girl is too good, don’t ruin it with real stuff.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

it might be phenomenally lame & get old fast, but i never underestimate how stupid people are so i’m saying hit, unfortunately.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

well if it turns out to be like laguna season 3.then it’ll definitely be a FLOP! too much bitching and drama is -.-

Thumb up Thumb down 0

nooo! i dont liek reality tv shows anywyas

Thumb up Thumb down 0

THAT IS A TOTAL FLOP! is going to suck because everybody loves the TV serie and that thing is going to mess up the gossip girl franchise is going to be CRAZYYY!!! nobody would understand :(

Thumb up Thumb down 0

FLOP. The only people who would actually participate would be the non-Waldorf/van der Woodsen/Archibald types, because the actual old money families wouldn’t want their kids exposing their secrets. So we’ll get stuck with a bunch of posers who just happen to go to NYC private schools and are, let’s face it, either nouveau riche or no riche, and thus less scandalous and fun to watch.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

FLOP!!
I guess it should just stick to the TV Series.

xoxo

Thumb up Thumb down 0

no i think they should just stick with the tv series

Thumb up Thumb down 0

flop for sure. I think the tv series is succesful and all, but teaching
kids who are going to watch this about a reality gossip girl, BIG MISTAKE. This will be taken too far and teach kids the wrong way
of how to socialize or make friends. At least with the series it is
fictional, but coming through with this, will change some of the viewers
minds or maybe even actions. Unfortunatley, i think people are willing
to watch anything these days, but it is a horrible idea.

I live on the UES and the idea of these people being nurtured or publicized more than they already are, makes me want to go to givenchy and puke on everyone.

Just sounds like the prep school version of Laguana Beach…..It’s gonna suck.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

nopeeee, i lovee gossip girl the way it is, turn it into a reality show no one’s gonna watch itt

Thumb up Thumb down 0

the viral facebook casting solicitations say that the producers themselves went to the very schools that Constance Billard is supposed to mimic. def. a HIT.

Thumb up Thumb down 0

flop!i don`t like that idea….i looooove that show and i don`t want it to get cancelled like the o.c. ……toootal flop!!!!

MTV…they turn everything into trash…aka reality tv.

wouldnt it be like laguna beach except here in NY with traffic skyscrapers and hotels…i mean i’d love to see drama within the New York socialites (without actually seeing them in bikinis with surfboards) but then again thats wat justjared is for….we have enough Paris Hiltons running around …maybe youger teenage high schools might be fun…i mean i dont think it wud be a flop at all…but tryna hit it head on with the actual show..i mean the show isnt as close with the book now adding actual teenage socialites….hmm maybe

it just might be a success
as long as u dont try and pair it up with
Gossip Girl on Wednesday Nights =]
maybe on Monday (im sort of tired of GIrlfriends)
but yea…now that i do thnk bout it its a creative idea
i mean we see them all the time…now just put them in
front of the camera =]

Thumb up Thumb down 0

HITTTT!!!! everyone i no got addicted to this show, i mean i dont think it will last for long, but for now its deff a hit for now….

Thumb up Thumb down 0

I go to a school for which Gossip Girl was based on. There is most likely not going to be a reality series because the inter-city schools (the private schools in manhattan) won’t allow it. A bunch of schools were asked a few months ago if a reality series could be filmed and we turned them down. If this does happen it will be a flop because filming inside the schools where most of the”action” happens will not be allowed.
