Seriously?

Ok... we are ALL going to miss Gossip Girl over the summer (I've already started watching all the season 2 I've had recorded) but seriously? American network Bravo have decided to play their hand at easing our withdraw symptoms with their brand new reality show NYC prep that "chronicles the lives of a group of privileged teenagers who are key players in Manhattan's elite high school scene. (sounding familiar?) Students who travel in packs (girls on the steps?)


"Camille takes her studies seriously, balancing rigorous exams... studying for her SATS... and the college application process with aplomb... Always armed with acid-tounged opinions and witty retorts." Blair Waldorf anyone?



Ok. Blair Waldorf/ Leightom Meeter does her hair better, has better clothes and looks less dweeby. 


In the cast you also have Jesse (who's blond I might add, just like Jenny Humphry) who also wants a career as a fashionista. PC (what a name!) is a guy with a scarf. (Chuck Bass anyone?) And there's Sebastian, another Chuck, who "is known among his circle of friends as the guy who constantly hooks up with the hottest girls." 


I mean seriously? I thought the television networks in the UK were desperate when they repeated my show... But what's with all these reality shows sprinting up out of hit shows? I can't believe the Real Housewives (based on Desperate Housewives) is still running...
