Gossip Girl Ratings Get No Love

Gossip Girl Ratings Get No Love

Penn Badgley and Jessica Szohr shoot scenes for their not-such-a-hit drama Gossip Girl on Monday in New York City.

Not such a hit? Well, according to overnight Nielsen ratings, only 2.44 million viewers tuned in to the return of Gossip Girl last night, which is only slightly better than its last original episode on January 9. However, GG did help The CW score its highest ratings ever in the Monday 8-9pm time period among adults 18-34 (1.9/6) and women 18-34 (2.9/8).

So what did taking down streams of new Gossip Girl episodes online do? Absolutely nothing!

Check out this new interview with Penn at NYMag.com. And it’s been reported that model and magazine heiress Lydia Hearst, 23, will be on the season finale of Gossip Girl. She will the play the role of interior director Amelia and has a moment with Chuck (Ed Westwick).

And what happened last night?? Wasn’t someone supposed to be of “the gay persuasian”?

If you are unable to catch GG on the tube you can catch it on surfthechannel.com

People, have you not ever noticed that Gossip Girl is not a show for kids. it’s more of a Drama directed towards 16-18 year olds. If you don’t like the show, then don’t watch it, it’s as simple as that. I watched the show for the very first time ever last night, and I thought it was Good! have you not seen The O.C ? its like the modern version of that and One tree hill! (which both involve lesbians and SEX!) I really hope they keep this show running, they can come a long way with that. now there will always be haters over everything, I’m sure that the producers won’t axe the show just because of some constant winging Critics!! the O.C was once canned, but then came back for another 3 seasons! and that show was brilliant. there’s no way gossip girl will be axed.

I love Gossip Girl but I forgot it was on last night until half way through the episode. I liked it on Wednesdays better.

What is the deal with this outfit? She’s a pretty girl but why?

Well, personally, I love the show, but wasn’t home to watch it. No DVR either. Had to watch it online. Some youtv or something like that. Serena won’t be the gay one, in fact, they’ve already said it would be a guy. And they can’t hope for ratings like on NBC, I think if they got ratings that were good considering the network, they would be happy. And it’s already been renewed for a second season as far as I know so they can’t cancel it now. And pres of CW Dawn Ostroff fights for shows she likes. Look at how long Veronica Mars lasted (3 seasons) and almost no one was watching that show.

ouch! They should cancel it!

Louise: You dont know much about rating do ya? ANTM gets 6! million viewers. Smallville gets around 4-5 million viewers. OTH gets around 3, 3.5 million viewers, just not now, bc of the bad lead in (Gossip girl) and dancing with the stars is on the same time. Supernatural gets around 3, 3.50 million. The comides gets around 2.50, 3 million. And they are comides. Comidies has Always lower ratings these days.

And then we have Reaper, who gets 2.50, 3 million and LAST! Gossip girl. 2, 2.50 million viewers. The ratings for gossip girl is terreblie!! Why cant you 9 year old fans get that!?

I LOVE PENN I REALLY DO NOT KNOW WHY?!

I have to say I have no clou how your ratingssystem works (I’m dutch…) but I guiss for a big country like the USA and your comments on it that a low rating :P

though I like the show, I think they could have done much better. I had to see 3 episodes before I really got in the stor, There wasn’t a click form the first moment……. I think thats the weakness of the show. I always think if you see 1 episode of a show. It has to grab you, no matter if its in the middle of the season. You have to turn it on and something has to make you curious to see whats happens next. GG doesn’t have that, the storyline is to flat for that.

I love the show now, but thats because I always wath more that one episode of a show, so by the 3th episode I thought it was a fun show.
but I do get that a lot of people dont like the show.

Who watches this ?? Hope the cast is saving their paychecks because it wont be back next year

well the ratings of gg has always been low and honestly i dont think they will improve much. but the ratings really dont mean much anymore. most people dont watch tv live, especially not the cw, they either record it or watch it on youtube or something. the fan base, the mentions in the press blogs etc are the measure of show’s popularity. and gg is what everyone talks about these days. i really really don’t think it will get cancelled, it’s so popular. look at oth, it never had high ratings etc and it was never as popular as gg and it will still have 6th season.
and everyone talks about how the storylines are ridiculous and how the acting is crappy and all that. people what do you expect? seriously i absolutely love the show but you cant expect it to have great acting or incredible story lines. it’s a teen show which is about sex, high school drama and love. accept it for what it is.

i think you spelled ‘persuasian’ wrong.Persuasion.Unless you were doing it on purpose soo..

I think it needed more advertisement! I entirely forgot about it coming back when it did.

Is this Vanessa Hudgens? :D

You should give it a try

It won’t get cancelled because iTunes sells are really great.

The comeback episode was the best of the season. Finally some good
comedy.

so who turned out gay ?

Taking down the online streams doesn’t necessarily stop plp from downloading it.

cindyyyyy(: @ 04/23/2008 at 1:07 pm

If it was on Tuesday..or some other day like oh, I don’t know, WEDNESDAY, then maybe I’d watch it, but, no. It has to be on monday when I’m out. Oh god.

Andddd, GG better not stop. I want to watch it, if they put it on the internet, it`d be good for me..

But, I`d love to watch it if I had the time..when is it on during the week for replays? If anyone answered that question for me, I`ll thank you so much.

WHAT???
well whoever did not tune in missed out.
it was fab!
