*not interested in Gossip Girl*
The only Schwartz show I'm watching now is Chuck, and it's got nothing to do with Schwartz... I just like the concept. :D I don't know how much he's involved with Chuck, but it's nice to see some of The OC cast in the show. Well... It'll be cool to see Melinda Clarke again. :)

Sorry about the link but if you follow chic's advice then you can still read it.

Go to the link, click on TV and scroll down. One of the articles is about Gossip Girl.

The article is gone!! I tried to link to it twice and both times it wasn't there - it tells me No Post.
Damn, I could have used some good Josh bashing.
Isn't Gossip Girl based on a series of books or something?? So he's already screwing up - somehow, I'm not surprised.

I still haven't forgiven him. --ITA, J. Hence, I will not watch any JS production. Ever again.

Thanks chic. Don't know why the link isn't working but you're right - you can still get to it. You just need to go the long way.

It does seem like Josh didn't learn much from his mistakes of the past.

Thanks - found it and *snort* - I'm not surprised. Really, I'm not.
I just find it very sad that this show is based on books and he still is screwing it up.
The books have already been written!! Follow the damn books, asshat!

I haven't seen Gossip Girls, don't plan on seeing Gossip Girls, have no interest in Gossip Girls.

Am waiting with serious fan girl Squee! for a certain new midseason replacement cop show...

Forgive him? It's not even up for consideration. He stumbled into a concept and cast that could have made ever more serious TV history and dropped the ball.

I don't watch his stuff except for 4 certain box sets.

Well, I think I caught part of 'Chuck' once, but wasn't intrigued.

I have to admit that I have watched a couple of episodes of GG purely for interests sake.

I was disappointed. (Or maybe I was happy that it was disappointING?)

In what I saw, there were thinly veiled rehashing of OC plotlines. And no Ben!

Why would you bother?

Bummer. I'm always game for reading anything where the subject is what an egotistical, lazy, immature jerk the Schwartz is, but you already knew that ( ... )

Is it wrong that I take comfort in knowing that others are still as angry at him as I am?

No, not at all. It validates my own feelings!

Josh Schwart is an arrogant douche bag so you shouldn't feel bad about enjoying him getting a bad review. I feel the same way. Not so much because of the Ryan/Marissa thing but more because he let his personal life and his friendship with Rachel Bilson affect the show.

I never watched Chuck and I've watched one episode of Gossip Girls (but that's just because someone on ONTD posted something that one of the actors on GG said about the acting of the cast of The OC and I wanted to see if his acting is any good - It wasn't and from what I can tell from this one episode; GG sucks too!) I'm not planning on watching any of his future projects too. I have little respect for him as a writer.

From what I've seen around the OC fandom it looks like a lot of Mischa/Maissa fans watch his shows. Which is surprising to me, you'd think they will be the first to boycott him *shrug*
