Producers Considering Gossip Girl Spin-Off

at .

Brace yourselves for this piece of Gossip Girl news.

The producers of Gossip Girl are considering a possible spin-off set at the girls' boarding school - basing the new series either on Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen), and/or on a new character.

The new character, if that route is chosen, would be introduced after the original Gossip Girl returns for Season 2 this fall.

In either case, the spinoff is likely to focus on the storyline of Taylor Momsen's character, Jenny, from the book series.

Jenny Up Close

Jenny Humphrey is a self-esteem challenged outsider who, in the books and to an extent on the TV version of Gossip Girl as well, faces a series of humiliating, public embarrassments.

As a result, Jenny H. has to either repeat ninth grade or find herself a new school. She decides to enter a different boarding school and reinvents her image as the popular "it" girl.

It is unknown if a spinoff would go to the CW or another network.

What do you think? Would you watch a Gossip Girl spin-off? Do you think Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen) can carry her own show?
