Ready to "Turn Up the Heat" with Chair ! - 青少年影集

executive producer Stephanie Savage 的訪談 很長 有沒有人要翻譯的 Orz

Gossip Girl is back in just six more days. Six. More. Days.

As if we weren't hungry enough for some GG, executive producer Stephanie
Savage is making us salivate with round after round of interviews teasing the
return.

In a chat with E!, she talked about Chair, Little J rumors, a possible
Serena-Dan reconciliation, and the endgame she has in mind. Excerpts from
Steph below ...

Q: You left us with quite a cliffhanger with Chuck's mom possibly being alive.

SS: Chuck and Blair's big story this spring will be solving the mystery of
the lady at Bart's grave. It's a really great Chuck and Blair story that's
very emotional. You see them working together, supporting each other in a way
that I think fans will really enjoy

Q: And we've already seen the photos of Chuck coming face-to-face with this
mysterious woman. So I take it we don't have to wait long for this story line
to be resolved?

SS: The first contact will be made in that first episode back.

Q: One of the things I get asked a lot by fans is whether Chuck and Blair
will have any steamy sex scenes. I know it's a network show, but any hope for
any steaminess?

SS: We're turning up the heat on all your couples in the second half of the
season. I think you will see some of those scenes in a way that people will
enjoy and appreciate.

Q: Are you able to address the rumor about Chuck and Jenny sleeping together?

SS: I want to leave [that rumor] alone. Like when people said Eric was Gossip
Girl. Saying 'What? Are you crazy? Eric's not Gossip Girl!' is somehow giving
credence to it.

Q: What about Dan and Serena? They've been off for a long time, but some fans
still love them. Is that relationship totally dead, or could their romance be
resurrected?

SS: I think that the Dan and Serena love story was the spine of Season One
and in a lot of ways the premise of the show grew out of their relationship.
They are definitely in each other's stories this spring, especially when
Serena's dad comes back.

Dan will have a big part in that story. And I think that's a very powerful
methodology and couple methodology that we would never wanna turn our backs
on completely.

Q: Will any of the couples be together by the season finale?

SS: I'd rather not say. The end of the season is so far away!

Q: The fans are so invested in the show's relationships, and divided on who
should be together. Are there ever any heated debates in the writer's room on
which way to go?

SS: That's what is so interesting from our perspective, because I've never
been on a show where you feel there are really other genuine options [for
multiple characters].

On The O.C. we just didn't have that. It was always very clear who went with
each other. It's really fun as a writer to feel there are genuine
possibilities that can be explored.

I feel we have an endgame in mind, but we're also very open to discovering
things along the way - relationships that are not in the books that may even
be surprises to us.

You want to have an idea, a game plan, a map that you're following, but we're
open to possibilities if you find something along the way that you want to
stop and explore.

Q: In the first year, there was a lot of talk about a Gossip Girl spinoff. Is
there any talk of that happening now?

SS: No, I think we really like the chemistry of our characters together. We
don't want to take one of our characters away from the show and put them in
their own show.

Q: What's the current talk about extending the show beyond the college years?

SS: That's a long time from now, but we're very excited about the show. We
feel very healthy, we feel that we're figuring out how to do the show not in
high school. I think the second half of the season will be really successful
in that regard.

The amount of fan interest has been really exciting. We were thrilled when we
got our Season Four pickup early. We're taking it one season at a time. New
York City has always been much more of the franchise of the show than high
school.
