The CW’s Gossip Girl has been making a buzz. What’s the deal? This rather scandalous teen drama has been called a combination of Sex and the City and The OC. As it turns out, this show has plans to only become more scandalous in the future, bringing it even closer to those two shows. It has the Sex and the City look but younger and slightly different.

The wealthy teens in this show are pressured to measure up to what their parents are – and what they have. In an interview with E! News, Penn Badgley, who plays Dan Humphrey on the show said that, “When there’s nobody to make mistakes for you, you kinda end up having to learn on your own.”

Humphrey adds that one of the good things about this show is that the show portrays the kids who are doing drugs and having sex suffering repercussions.

Gossip Girl airs Wednesdays at 9pm on the CW.
