Has GOSSIP GIRL Crossed the Line?

April 10, 2008 By theTVaddict 17 Comments

While this TV Addict is all for creative advertising, I’m starting to think that the CW may have crossed the line with their latest ad campaign [see above video].

Don’t get me wrong, I can’t wait for GOSSIP GIRL’s April 21st return. But should a show whose key demographic is comprised of teenagers really be having their lead character and supposed role model Serena Van Der Woodsen utter the ‘F’ word? [Television’s ultimate taboo!] When did GOSSIP GIRL turn into the American Version of SKINS?

Needless to say, we expect to hear from the Parent’s Television Council any moment now.

UPDATE: At the request of the CW, the racy promo in question has been removed.
