Josh Schwartz denies spinoff rumors for Gossip Girl

Good news for you, Upper East Siders: Little J has not left the building… yet.
As reported earlier, rumors are out that producers are working on a Gossip Girl spinoff, as it exists in the books, most likely based on the character of Jenny Humphrey. Contacted by E!Online’s Kristin, executive producer Josh Schwartz denies there’s any truth to that.
Not sure how this got out there, but no plans for spinoff at this moment. The books do have a spinoff, but we have nothing in the works right now other than making sure season two gets off to a great start.
Well, this is great news for sure, since clearly a spinoff coming in this early wouldn’t be such a good idea, not would be yet another series like that in The CW. Although in that matter, a “well-placed source inside The CW” reported that while there were no current plans for such a spinoff at the moment, “if the second season does as well as we expect it to, then we’ll probably try to make it happen“.
Damn! Well, at least by then they’ll have canceled one or two of their upcoming series, so there’ll be a void to fill I guess…
