Salacious Gossip Girl Promos Getting Noticed: Every Parent’s Nightmare
July 24, 2008 by Kelly
The final Gossip Girl promo poster actually paints Blake Lively as the bad girl - quite a change for her character these days!
This final poster is one that is generating quite a bit of agita - and clearly it’s because touting both the character Serena and the show as “every parent’s nightmare.”
What do you think? Will it hurt the show - or help?

i think these new posters are going to HURT the show! i absolutely love GG but now some people may not be able/allowed to watch the show- if my parents saw that they wouldn’t let me watch! i really cant believe they think putting this out there is going to do any good. it disappoints me and it isn’t even really what the show is about!!
I agree with Liz… this isn’t was the show’s about.
But I have to say.. a lot of people might start watching the show JUST because of thee posters and what they imply..
It’s sad to think that the CW is resorting to “sex” to “sell” their product..
It’s refreshing to see something so openly cheeky and provocative in an advertising age dominated by sleek, modern, yet obstinately uncontroversial and nondemoninational advertising. Cheers to GG on this one.
