While the CW has yet to turn our beloved Gossip Girl into any sort of ratings hit, they're certainly good at creating buzz for it.
With 13 episodes aired to date, the series returns after a long hiatus on Monday, April 21, at 8 p.m., with the first of five new episodes.
To promote the new episodes, the network recently launched a scandalous ad campaign that can be summed up in four letters: OMFG.
There are two sexy new posters promoting the return of the teen soap / drama, both of which will be seen all around the country.
The thing that makes these Gossip Girl posters controversial? Well, they show several couples from the series in seriously erotic poses...
"Oh my (f*%k!ng) God," indeed, Gossip Girl.
It's not hard to see why this ad campaign would stir raise eyebrows. Gossip Girl is a show aimed primarily at teens, and here we have Chace Crawford giving Blake Lively what appears to be a mind-shattering orgasm. Gulp.
Of course, the ad is lot like the show itself that it's edgy, daring, scandalous, and (let's face it) hot. Here's a second version of the OMFG campaign featuring Blair (Leighton Meester) and Chuck (Ed Westwick)...
What do you think? Which of the two new Gossip Girl ads do you like more - and is the show going too far with the whole "OMFG" angle?

Has the entertainment world gotten so base that they have to use such
an inappropriate expression to get an audience? GOD wil not be mocked.
One day the producers and all who give out this smut will answer to
GOD ALMIGHTY. You don't have to listen to me, but one day we wil all listen to HIM.
I know I do not have to watch this, and I won't. My concern is for my grandchildren
and great grandchildren. For all of you who scoff at this post..may you find JESUS
in your life before it is too late. Writen in love for humanity.

Definetlt the blair/chuck one, it's sleazy like the other one...it's hot.

Blair and Chuck one definitely!
It's a bit more sophisticated (khemm) and cutier.
Serena and Nate one is a little too.. erotic.
Kepping in mind that this is a serial for teen it shouldn't be
as... well let's say sexual as it is.

I think the new adds are a little much. I'm a huge fan of the show, but honestly: Gossip Girl
Isn't all about sex...and more sex! If the creators of the show think this is the only way to
convince people to watch the show...There's something wrong!
