Some good writing




So many call it trash TV, others make it their weekly guilty pleasure and yet others don't even know it exists. I am of course talking about two of the latest trends in pop-culture: Glee and Gossip Girl. Yes, you kind of have to be living in a hole to not know that Glee exists- its weekly airing on prime-time television captures audiences of all ages. Both shows of course live off stereotypes and play up roles only a few fortunate (or unfortunate in the case of Jenny on GG) actual lead in real life. Both are laced with innuendoes, teen drinking, the idea that sex sells, and many other controversial scenes, but what both have in my opinion is great dialogue, or script writing! Kudos to the writers of both shows. Their way with words continue to get me from week to week. As silly as Blair's acting may be, as hot as Chuck Bass may be, and as annoying as Vanessa may be from week to week, Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage adaptation of Cecily von Ziegesar novel captivates me and I can't seem to get enough. As Kristen Bell open and closes each episode I almost get a hard on as the words wind through another juicy, gossip filled tale.....someday I will write like this too and be responsible for another phenomena such as Glee or Gossip Girl. "XOXO You know you love me!" AND "I just prefer to think of the homleess as outdoorsy. So shine on urban campers!"
