NYC Prep Gossip

Since my second to last post I've been M.I.A. with almost all things electronic- minus my cell phone. Today is my first day back with Internet and television and I can't believe all the entertainment news I've missed. Today I was watching television and I can't believe this show that Bravo is coming out with NYC Prep.

After reading about this show and watching the commercial, it instantly made think The CW's show Gossip Girl. Which after doing some research, I'm not the only one because New York Magazine thinks so too calling the show a "rip off." The only thing that they are missing is a mysterious girl that text about their secrets. Instead of the having a "gossip girl" they do the gossiping themselves. Aside from that that the shows are too similar, all viewers have to do is identify the which person is which character.

NYC Prep is a reality show about six very privileged adolescents that attend exclusive schools in of course NYC. The show will chronicle their lives inside and outside of school and charity events. Viewers will also get to know their families and friends, the hot spots they go to in NYC, and see their vacation sites.

I wanted to compare the cast to the characters on Gossip Girl, however, NY Magazine beat me to the punch. So in an effort not to copy them and deal with copyright drama you can visit their site to find out about who's who at http://nymag.com/daily/intel/2009/04/bravo_takes_gossip_girl_knocko.html.

For those that are interested in watching NYC Prep the series airs on Bravo on June 23. Maybe those of you that watch it can tell me if my suspensions about the show are right. Otherwise, Serena and Blair better watch out, because they are not the only ones that are living the high life in NYC.
