Gossip Girls creators and executive producers Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage are moving forward with a spinoff that will be a prequel to "Gossip Girl" and relive the wild teen years of Lily van der Woodsen (Kelly Rutherford) in Los Angeles in the 1980s.

The network has ordered a backdoor pilot for the project, which will air as a "Gossip" episode May 11. The 1980s world will be introduced in flashbacks tied to the episode's story line of Lily and her daughter Serena (Blake Lively) wrestling with a problem, Schwartz said. He would not add further details.


Fashion, pop culture and music will be central to the spinoff. And they figure by setting it in the '80s it might broaden its appeal beyond the teen following for "Gossip." Who wouldn't love a show set in the '80's?
