Models And Flight Attendants And Socialites, Oh My...!
The CW will relaunch its season with brand-new episodes of all (OK..most of) your favorite shows in January...and coming later in the year are two new reality series to float your boat.

It's not even officially winter yet, but just in time for the spring thaw comes Fly Girls and Tinsley Mortimer!
Fly Girls is a docu-series that takes viewers into the private and public lives of 5 beautiful flight attendants on Virgin America.
"This show is about real, down-to-earth young women who happen to have landed in an exceptionally glamorous, high-flying career filled with exotic locations and handsome strangers," said Kristen Vadas, Senior Vice President For Alternative Programming at The CW. "We're thrilled to be working with Virgin America for this unique peek into a whirlwind lifestyle that shows how tough it is to be grounded when you work 35,000 feet in the air."
Tinsley Mortimer, who has been called "New York's pre-eminent young socialite" stars in a docu-series of her own. In this real-life Gossip Girl, the lives of the young, rich and beautiful are explored and dissected.

Paul Wesley who plays Stefan Salvatore on The Vampire Diaries will be doing double-duty this winter when he reprises his role as Jack Bauer's son-in-law on Fox's 24.

Wesley is no stranger to 24. He played Kim Bauer's husband Stephen in 2 episodes last season.
Laura Harring Joins Gossip Girl!
Laura Harring will return as Elena Bass, Chuck Bass' mother when Gossip Girl returns with new episodes in 2010. Harring is best known for her role as Rebecca Doyle on The Shield and as Rita in David Lynch's weird 2001 thriller, Mulholland Drive. Harring also appeared in 133 episodes of NBC's daytime soap Sunset Beach.

'Gilmore' Favorite Joins 90210!
According to Entertainment Weekly's Michael Ausiello, Gilmore Girls star Scott Patterson will join 90210 for at least two episodes in 2010.

Patterson, who is well-known to Gilmore fans as diner owner Luke Danes and recently appeared in the short-lived CW comedy Aliens In America as patriarch Gary Tolchuk has been tapped to play Jack, an ex-con who opens up a bait and tackle shop in L.A and who also happens to be Liam's biological father.
'Tis The Season For A Christmas Song From Leighton Meester!
Hitfix.com has ranked the best and worst Christmas songs of the year and the news isn't good for Gossip Girl's Leighton Meester.

According to the site, Leighton Meester's take on Darlene Love's classic holiday tune Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) ranks among the worst of the year.
Meester "left her sass on the Upper East Side on this bland version of the poppy new classic," claimed the yuletide review.
She's in some pretty good company though. Also roasted on an open fire were Lady GaGa and her song Christmas Tree (which the site described as stupendously stupid and awful, the most terrible Christmas song) and for equal opportunity I suppose, Neil Diamond and his version of The Chanukah Song.

The Beautiful Life: TBL Is Revived On You Tube!
Fans of The Beautiful Life: TBL have reason to celebrate. Ashton Kutcher is putting all 5 of the episodes that were produced on You Tube.

"When 'The Beautiful Life' concluded on broadcast television, we were deluged by fans imploring us to bring back 'TBL'," said producer Ashton Kutcher. "Working with innovative companies like HP and YouTube, we are thrilled to be ending this year by releasing the remaining episodes of 'The Beautiful Life' and taking part in a unique marketing program that could only occur online."
The first three episodes go up today. You'll have to wait until Monday for the remaining two. Hey, you waited this long. What's a few more days give or take?
The episodes are sponsored by Hewlett-Packard and can be seen commercial-free.
Kutcher said that if the show performs well on You Tube, there is a possibility that new episodes could be produced exclusively for the web.
The CW canceled The Beautiful Life: TBL after just two episodes due to low ratings and became the first casualty of the 2009-2010 television season.
