Watch out Parents Television Council (PTC), from the looks of it, GOSSIP GIRL’s Dan, Olivia and Vanessa were just the beginning. For starting this January, the CW has pledged to air all-original episodes of three, count ‘em three series on Monday nights. With GOSSIP GIRL, ONE TREE HILL and the highly-anticipated new drama LIFE UNEXPECTED rotating on and off the CW’s Monday night sked thru May 2010. Sex (GOSSIP GIRL), Scandal (ONE TREE HILL) and the-next-best-thing to an EVERWOOD re-boot (LIFE UNEXPECTED) all together on the same night… PTC, can you handle it? If so, details from the CW’s hot-off-the-press (release) are after the jump.

He didn’t know what to expect going into this season.
Having lost two of their most valuable players in Chad Michael Murray and Hilarie Burton at the end of last season, star James Lafferty didn’t know what to expect heading into ONE TREE HILL’s seventh season. More pressure? More work? All of the above? “Because we’re really an ensemble show, there hasn’t been a lot of added pressure, and really only a little more work,” explained Lafferty on a recent one-on-one with the TV Addict. “But we’ve worked really hard to make this season the best we possibly can and [the new cast additions of] Rob [Buckley] and Shantel [VanSanten] — who are so committed to creating the best possible characters they can — helped make things really easy on the rest of us.”
He’s firmly planted on Team ‘Naley.’
Although Lafferty wouldn’t spill on the veracity of the scandal that has rocked Tree Hill (Nathan may-or-may-not have cheated on Haley with a now three month pregnant Renee), Lafferty himself doesn’t believe the show would do anything to break up the show’s most beloved twosome, “The fans wouldn’t stand for it!” Adding, after we jokingly suggested that we’d love to see Nathan hook-up with Victoria, “Nathan’s been with everyone on the show, it’s not gonna happen!”

If there was one downside to attending last night’s FOX Fall Eco-Casino Launch Party (see above photo of your very own TV Addict ‘gleeking’ out with a few familiar faces!) it was that I missed out on some fairly important premieres. Which is why yet again I’m turning it over to you — my far smarter and better looking readers — to put your critics hat on and post away with your thoughts on last night’s premieres of GOSSIP GIRL, ONE TREE HILL and THE JAY LENO SHOW. 
Dear Nathan and Haley, do you know where your son Jamie is? Because if it were up to us, the adorable actor who plays him (Jackson Brundage) would be perched right between his fictional TV parents in this just released ONE TREE HILL promotional poster (and not just because you two have a deplorable track record when it comes to choosing nannies, re: Carrie)
Since joining the show, Brundage has played an integral part part in the series. Not only bringing some much needed levity to a town that is often guilty of taking itself waaaaaay to seriously (See: The season’s opening four minutes complete with obligatory music montage), but for also serving as the impetus for creator Mark Schwann to yet again jump ahead fourteen months in the future to accommodate the reality that the tiny tyke well, isn’t so tiny anymore (Said Schwann in a recent interview with EW.com, “Jackson is playing 5 ½. He’s going to be 9 soon. The kid’s going to have a moustache soon and he’ll be playing 6. The best way to deal with it is to let some time pass and not pick the show up in that moment.”) Add to that the fact that it’s Jamie’s 7th birthday that brings the entire gang back together when ONE TREE HILL returns on Monday September 14th and we’re thinking somebody needs to get this kid’s agent on line one! But, let’s not make too big a deal about it — after-all — we’d hate to see things go to Brundage’s head and have him end up like this nightmare.

Our Robert Buckley Shirtless Watch™ continues with these brand new photos from ONE TREE HILL’s upcoming second episode of the season titled “What Are You Willing To Lose?” An episode that has sports agent Clayton (Robert Buckley) doing his best to help NBA star Nathan deal with being separated from wife Haley, son Jamie and his hometown of Tree Hill by… you guessed it, running shirtless on the beach! More photos of this stunning plot development can be found after the jump because, hey, we’re all about giving y’all what you want. Even if we’re starting to get a sneaking suspicion that TREE HILL scribe Mark Schwahn may have in fact been replaced by a slash fiction author.

Is Robert Buckley — who has joined the cast of the CW’s ONE TREE HILL this season as Clayton, sports agent and friend of Nathan Scott — contractually obligated to remove his shirt in every single television role, or is it simply a happy coincidence? Discuss.
By C.T.
Let me say right off the bat that I’m a Brucas fan from way back, and find Leyton the most snore-inducing TV pair since DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES Mike and Susan. For those uninitiated in the language of fangirls (and boys), Brucas (Brooke & Lucas) and Leyton (Lucas and Peyton) are two of ONE TREE HILL’s founding couples. Come fall, the guy both girls loved will reportedly be exiting the canvas… with Peyton in tow.
And I say “good riddance.”

Chad [Michael Murray] and Hilarie [Burton] officially leave ONE TREE HILL. How will we make it through each week without Murray’s crinkled face, pursed lips, and declaration of love for someone? It’s pretty bad/sad when your acting actually makes Annie on 90210 look like an Emmy winner.
WHAT WE’RE WATCHING:
THE BIG BANG THEORY (8PM CBS, CTV in Canada)
Just how funny is tonight’s installment of THE BIG BANG THEORY which this TV Addict had the pleasure of seeing at Paley Fest ‘09? Here’s all you need to know: Hookers! Hotels! and Howard (Wolowitz)
CHUCK (8PM NBC, CityTV in Canada)
In the season 2 finale, yes NBC, you heard us correctly — SEASON finale — Chuck must spring into action on Ellie and Awesome’s wedding day to save his sister from evil Fulcrum forces and Steve Jobs wannabe Ted Roark (Chevy Chase).
GOSSIP GIRL (8PM CW)
Georgina Sparks (Michelle Trachtenberg) returns. Her mission: To liven up tonight’s been-there-done-that rivalry between Chuck and Nate for Blair’s affection.
HEROES (9PM NBC, 10PM Global in Canada)
It’s Nathan versus Sylar in this third season finale and we have a feeling that unlike season one, a parking meter isn’t gonna do Sylar in (or at least we hope it won’t.)

NBC was right to boot GLEE from the parade.
