Episode 105 – It-Girl Interrupted

Spotted, a new dawn for the podcast. Andy welcomes Kaitlin Reilly
(@reillytweets) of Refinery29 and Monica Suriyage
(@monicatweetsnow) of Hissy Fit to examine Gossip Girl under a
new lens. The trio discuss the danger of pop culture romances and
guilty pleasure shows, the show's lack of plot, and the plague of
the annoying lead character. We trace GG's problems from the
book, the pilot and beyond, but what can we learn from Gossip
Girl and the UES? What shows out there are Gossip Girl's inverse
(positive, good energy)? How can Andy be on Team Ivy? Why is this
the battle Rufus picks against Lily? Do you want soap operas in
3D? Did the writers use darts and/or MadLibs to write Gossip
Girl? If you love Monica and Kaitlin (and you should!), check out
