Josh Schwartz Would Prefer Not to Be Every Parents' Nightmare

That ad there, above? For The CW's Gossip Girl, the low-ratings show that everybody can't stop talking about? The show's creator, Josh Schwartz, actually hates the way the network has gone about pushing the show on viewers, taking advantage of the Parents Television Council's general frustration with its means of teaching young people about the birds and the bees. "The network came up with that, and I just stand back. I don’t want anything to do with it. … When you drive by a poster for your show and it says, ‘Every parent’s nightmare,’ you have mixed feelings." Ya know, that's sort of a mind-blowingly inappropriate thing to say.
