TV Updates Blair Waldorf is Making History When I saw pictures of Leighton Meester at the Fox Upfront I actually shouted out, by myself, in my office the other day – YES! Because I miss her.

Xenu Xenu gets unREALed E! just announced a new “scripted” series to its lineup at the upfronts. It’s a show called The Arrangement. And this… Isn’t subtle.
