While still unconfirmed by the network itself, a planned Rufus and Lily spinoff - featuring younger versions of the star-crossed lovers - is supposedly being planned.
According to reports, the network will lay the groundwork for the new show beginning with a flashback sequence in an upcoming Gossip Girl episode in early 2009.
Rufus and Lily (Matthew Settle and Kelly Rutherford) certainly have great chemistry, and the idea of no original cast members leaving Gossip Girl is also appealing.
But would you watch a spinoff featuring younger versions of these characters? Would they be enough to sustain a hit series, or should the producers scrap the idea? Tell us what you think of the proposed spin-off in the informal survey below ...
How would you feel about a young Rufus-Lily Gossip Girl spin-off?

No that's too much. A jenny spin-off is nice although i don't want to see jenny leave either so yeah. I don't want to see a younger version of lily and rufus because they could just show that in the show it's too weak to become a good series. If it's all about them it'll be quite boring. and Frankly not all that interesting.

As much as I love Rufus and Lily, a spin-off series about them whne they were younger would probably be a horrible idea.

If there was a spinoff with Lily and Rufus, I would probably watch it. I don't see it going anywhere though.

I don't really think there should be a spinoff with Lily & Rufus, but if there was, I might watch it.

i still want jenny to have her own show

I would be OK with it. as long as it doesn't take anyone from the original away. it would be kinda nice to see a younger version of lily and compare it to Serena.
