Dave's New Fave: Gossip Girl

I've been waiting to watch Gossip Girl since its debut on the CW in 2007. But sadly, the new show by Josh Schwartz, creator of the O.C., wasn't available on our satellite - that is until this past week. And now that I've just watched the first episode, I can honestly say, "I luv it, luv it, luv it!"

Not only is the concept genius (with the all knowing blogger Gossip Girl bring you all the show's scoop), but the cast is very engaging - especially the rocker dad. Known as Rufus Humphrey on the show, Matthew Settle is a hottie. And as I noted to my friend Dave today, it's a funny state of affairs (and a slap of reality) when I find myself attracted to the dad on a show that targets 13 year old girls. Because on other phenoms like 90210, I was culturally relevant. Not so much anymore.
