Gossip Girl too racy for 8.30pm timeslot

From next week TV2 plans to move the American teen drama Gossip Girl from it's 8.30pm slot to the later time of 10.30pm.

TVNZ spokesperson Justine Caldwell told Stuff.co.nz that the decision was not based on poor ratings, but was instead made due to the racy content of the show.

"As the series progressed we felt the content made Gossip Girl more appropriate for a later time slot," said Caldwell.

Gossip Girl is based on the novel series by Cecily von Ziegesar about the lives of students who attend an elite New York private school. The show deals with themes such sex, jealousy and drugs.

The Plug:
Gossip Girl, 10.30pm Friday, TV2.
