This new show starring Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton is about a pair of cantankerous star news anchors work together at a local TV station. I think this show is worth a look because both Kelsey Grammer and Patricia Heaton are good at bringing laughs. So I will give it a watch.

Gossip Girl is a new series based on the best selling novels by Cecily von Ziegesar. The show follows the lives of affluent NYC's Upper East Side teens who attend a private high school. The series will focus mainly around former best friends, Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) and Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester), and their shared love interest, Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford). The show is created by Josh Schwartz who also created "The O.C.".

I think the show may live up to the hype because for a good reason, from my informal research most teens and 20somethings are a little exhausted from all the California based shows such as MTV's "Laguna Beach", FOX's "The O.C.", Bravo's "Real Housewives of Orange County", MTV's "The Hills", BET's "Baldwin Hills" and most recently MTV's "Newport Harbor: The Real O.C." and "Life of Ryan". Gossip Girl will give a different and fresh perspective on the teen cycle.
