Gossip Girl stars Blake Lively and Leighton Meester have reportedly signed a deal to guest-star on U.S. TV show 30 Rock.

The actresses, who play spoiled students in their hit TV series, will feature in a Gossip Girl-inspired flashback sequence on 30 Rock during main character Liz Lemon's 20-year high school reunion, according to Ew.com.

But fans of the programme will be in for a shock as the sequence will reveal geeky Lemon, who is played by the sitcom's creator Tina Fey, was actually a bullying teenager.

In Vidar's in basket from the people at Warner Bros. Television:

WBTV's new drama "Gossip Girl" has become the first new fall show to be picked up for a full season of episodes. The buzzed-about series is also a hit on iTunes, where its two most recent episodes rank among the top five downloaded shows on the site. "Gossip Girl" airs Wednesdays at 9 p.m. on The CW.

Excellent.  A full season of Vidar's favorite really bad show.

'Tis not meet for men to mock at what befalls fully many.

This is a really dumb show.  It's not even of the 'this is so dumb it's great' kind of show (like "The Hills").  This one is just dumb.  But it does a real kick ass sleaze-bag... and his name is Chuck Bass (played perfectly sleazily by Ed Westwick).

I've known bad guys before and I've dealt with one of the worst of all time - Loki.  This son of a frost giant was an attractive, ambivalent, mischief-making god.  Much like Chuck Bass.  Loki was often called the Sly One, the Trickster, the Shape Changer, the Sky Traveller (I'm not sure what Chuck Bass is called).  Loki has grown progressively more evil, and caused the death of Balder (the most beloved of the Gods) and is currently bound by his own intestines until the coming of Ragnarok (the end of the world).  I'm not sure if Chuck Bass is bound by anything and I doubt he's waiting for the end of the world.  He's having too much fun. 

It's too bad he's on a crappy show.  If only the chicks were a little hotter or a little more evil like Chuck.  Chuck is the only reason Vidar will keep watching.

So Gossip Girl continues - now in its second week.  Or should I say second "weak" - because it was sooooo weak. 

This guy Chuck isn't as much of an asshole as most people would like.  They're trying to make us "feel for him" by having his dad ride him or whatever.  The key word here is "whatever". 

Vidar will continue to watch but Vidar isn't liking what he sees.

Things I learned from GG Episode 2:  That there is some sort of green milkshake concoction with some ingredient added with an eye dropper that, supposedly, cures a hangover.  If true, this would be a valuable reason for this show to exist.  But Vidar has his doubts.

Vidar - The Silent God

Once upon a time, there was a show with under-age sex, under-age drinking, under-age drugs and an overage Vidar watching every second!  You go, GG!  You are the shit and you'd better not let Vidar down.

Things I learned from Episode 1:  That it's possible to do full text messaging with your thumb even while someone is trying to rape you.

Yours,

Vidar - The Silent God
