The reason: The premiere of Life UneXpected on the network. The new mostrar will be airing its first season (only six episodes) in Gossip Girl's time slot.
Of course, while six weeks without our mostrar always stinks, it is worth noting that this does not in any way shorten Season 3. When Gossip Girl returns in March, it will run 11 (or 12) consecutive Mondays until the season finale.
por our calculations, and according to our sources, this leaves four más episodes before the hiatus the mostrar is taking from January 18 until March:
* siguiente week's "The Last Days of Disco Stick" (3.10)
* An as-yet untitled episode November 30 (3.11)
* "The Debarted," January 4 (3.12)
* "Jenny, Full of Grace," January 11 (3.13)
Note that this is all subject to change and not 100 percent confirmed. The episode air dates, that is. The hiatus has definitely been confirmed.
