Have you ever heard of Gossip Girl? X's and O's killed me!
« on: May 19, 2008, 02:42:30 AM »
SAVE me. My sister is addicted to that so-so show and it just annoyed me when she said she already "reserved" the TV for tonight for she will be watching Gossip Girl. I just can't figure out why chicks like that crap. I have to argue with her about the whole "this TV is reserved" thing later and it's stressing me out. Ladies are the hardest creatures to argue with. Gaaaaah!  :-o

We're filthy. We only have one TV in the house. Well, two, if a 1964 Zenith 16" portable TV counts.

I only have one TV in my place. But I have 2 computers also, so that makes up for it.

We have three TVs, but two of them are being used as strawberry planters. So yeah, only one. But it makes up for being the only one by being a 47" High Definition flat screen.

You should tell your sister that all the cool kidz are watching it online. Only dweebs and dorks watch it on the TV.

http://blog.wired.com/underwire/2008/04/gossip-girl-is.html

"The show on average pulls in roughly 2.6 million viewers (Lost, when it's considered a failure, takes in 12.8 million). But that didn't mean they weren't watching," write Jessica Pressler and Chris Rovzar in the latest issue of New York Magazine.

    New episodes routinely arrived at the No. 1 most-downloaded spot on iTunes, and then there were the hundreds of thousands who were downloading free week-old episodes on the CW's site. Even executives at Nielsen threw up their hands and admitted that Gossip Girl appeared to be speaking to an audience so young and tech-savvy they hadn't really figured it out just yet. "

TV problem solved.

P.S. -- You're welcome. ;-)
