Across the nation teen girls and young adults rush to the TV Monday nights to catch the provocative and often-racy CW show, Gossip Girl – but the Parents Television Council Group think the show has gone too far this time. Here in Philadelphia, the show revolving around the lives of upper-class teen characters airs on CW 57, but the episode slated to air November 9th that apparently involves a sexual threesome between three main characters has many parents furious, and they want affiliate stations not to air the show.

The show, which is based off novels by Cecily von Ziegesar, has come under fire before for what some perceive as high sexual activity among the characters, which many believe has an impact on young girls.

CW representative Paul McGuire, claims that although the show is centered around a teen cast, the target audience is females between the ages of 18 – 34. Apparently on different occasions, CW has denounced the idea that they market the show to a teenage audience. Whether that is true or not, the show still appeals to teenagers, as well as young adults, because it does focus on teenagers.

While their intention may not be teens to be the primary viewers of the show, there’s no doubt teens all over the U.S are soaking it up. However, the outrage over the portrayal of teen’s sexuality is not a new occurrence. In 2006, the FCC fined CBS stations $3.6 million for what they defined as “indecent depiction of teenage sex” in 2004.

At least one person is anticipating the episode. Gossip Girl cast member, Michelle Trachtenberg recently told MTV, “[It's] worth waiting for,” and joked about who the controversial episode would include.
