Step aside, Mean Girls!

Remember The Plastics? That was years ago. And when you thought nothing could come along to give Lindsay Lohan a run for her money, look over to Gossip Girl.

The latest wave to hit the US (and... the online streaming scene of Singapore), for those who are over McDreamy-eyed Grey's Anatomy, X-men wannabe - Heroes, Forever running about in a haphazard fashion -Prison Break, lost in Lost, sick of The O.C., no longer desperately in love with the Desperate Housewives...

here's a new candy to feed your drama appetite.

Based on a popular novel series of the same name, Gossip Girl revolves around the lives of socialite young adults growing up on New York's Upper East Side who attend elite academic institutions (think babes, glamour, fashion and loads of bitchiness!) while dealing with sex, drugs, relationships and other teenage issues.

The series mainly centers around the lives of former best friends (so... is it friends turned foes? Expect some cat-fight here!), Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) and Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester), and their shared romantic interest, Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford). Also then a sub-plot of how there's this guy that's always liked Serena but out of her league, that might end up with her. (Once again a ryan atwood and marissa replay from OC. What do you expect? It's from the same producer!)

Then there's this blog going around (in the show) which blogs about the Upper East Siders, spreading rumours, creating speculations, churning even more drama and rivalries amongst the "exclusive and vicious"group of friends.

Sounds familiar? Sounds like something happening in your life? Sounds like something happening to your friends' lives? Or sounds like something you wish would happen to your life?
