Thomas is HAWT!

Posted by tyra on August 12, 2009 at 11:33 AM EDT #

i love kelsey sanders alot but i mean they are all amazing

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 11:35 AM EDT #

i meant why are the shows so short you should have them make them alot longer.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 11:35 AM EDT #

Ahh, I need to see them! Can you please make them available for people outside the U.S. soon? Thank you!!

Posted by Hannah on August 12, 2009 at 11:37 AM EDT #

Wait a minute!!!!!! okay, rewind to the guy that asked for a cupcake, but to take off the blue sprinkles. after he said that did josh say 'dash was just kidding'??? or did i just hear him wrong? please watch that again and tell me because io need to know if that guy is supposed to be dash!! btw, the show is growing on me, i liked it a little more today

Posted by CarolineL on August 12, 2009 at 11:39 AM EDT #

Yay! Kate, I love you. lol. Best books EVER.

Posted by Niya on August 12, 2009 at 11:40 AM EDT #

My fave Character is josh. even though he does not have a nig part right now i still look for him in every seen. but that might just be because he is my favorite in the books.

Posted by Jess on August 12, 2009 at 11:40 AM EDT #

I think it was Gage who said that about the cupcakes.

Posted by Rebecca on August 12, 2009 at 11:40 AM EDT #

URGH! i can't watch this one! i saw it yesterday but it won't work to day! well since i am in the UK i was lucking but i did see the first 30 seconds of it... URGH ANNOYED!!! i reallllllllly neeeeeed to watch i sound really really whinny but i don't care! please make it come out every where else too! and fasttttt

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 11:41 AM EDT #

OK for starters the first episode was just all right but now that I watched the 2nd ep. God I loved it!! I restarted it a couple of times and watched it over again! To bad they didn't have previews for the next ep!

Posted by Rebecca on August 12, 2009 at 11:43 AM EDT #

CarolineL.... yea, that was supposed to be dash. i'm disappointed, no offense to that actor... but he looks nothing like dash.... disappointed again....

Posted by Amanda S. on August 12, 2009 at 11:45 AM EDT #

The priveiw would be the whole show!

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 11:47 AM EDT #

thank you amanda s! I could have sworn josh aid that it was dash! i knew it!! lol he was supposed to have abercrombie and fitch good looks, and be big and strong! lol i know that they can't be exactly like they were supposed to look in the books, but i wouldn't have thought that it was him if josh hadn't called him dash...

Posted by CarolineL on August 12, 2009 at 11:47 AM EDT #

No offense! Jk!:D

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 11:47 AM EDT #

okay so wow i love episode 2. plus accident about shelby. yeah right more like ariana killed her because she was dating thomas. ugh. lol. aw but it was really good.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 11:51 AM EDT #

it would be better if tht actor was gage and the person across from noelle was dash but oh well its still alright.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 11:52 AM EDT #

why wasnt thomas sitting with them? and instead of glass licker i think her new nickname in this is trailer park.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 11:55 AM EDT #

okay soo..i like the episodes. i'm exicited for the next one and everything but...hello where's constance??? i loved her so much! and wasn't that basically the whole point of the books? that reed's first in a regular house and then, they reed goes to billings. i mean taylor never had this girl "shelby" as her roomate...she had leanne and then leanne got kicked out! not "died" but watever. if you agree with me write about it and if you don't okay. great work though kate! come out with suspicion pleasee!!! (: -Kaite(:

Posted by Katie on August 12, 2009 at 11:56 AM EDT #

yeah, i think her new nickname is trailerpark too, because they didn't have the scene when she was watching them from bradwell, and that was how she got the nickname...

Posted by CarolineL on August 12, 2009 at 11:56 AM EDT #

the first episode was ok but i love the second episode! just a little disappointed. i thought of dash's image different. but the show is growing on me. btw thomas is a HOTTIE!

Posted by sam on August 12, 2009 at 11:57 AM EDT #

the show was once again ahmazing! and all the characters were right for their part. Hopefully when Dash comes along he'll be really hot cause if hes not it would be a major dissapointment

Posted by anonyomous on August 12, 2009 at 11:59 AM EDT #

Katie, i agree with you! in the "case file" or the books section on this website, there is a character called shelby wordsworth. I wonder if that is supposed to be the same shelby or if the same name is just a coincidence. i guess there is not a constance, or leanne, or natasha. does anyone know who nicole was supposed to be playing? she was in the chapel scene, i guess she was just like an extra

Posted by CarolineL on August 12, 2009 at 11:59 AM EDT #

Katie, Leanne was never Taylors roomate. Taylor roomed with Kiran and Leanne roomed with Natasha. Then Leanne was caught "cheating"(Noelle and Ariana set her up because they wanted Reed in). Then Reed moved in with Natasha. Sorry, I just wanted to clear that up!

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 12:00 PM EDT #

what!!!!! the guy who plays dash is not good looking at all i hope i heard it wrong cause the guy sitting next to noelle better not be dash ill be so angry

Posted by anonyomous on August 12, 2009 at 12:02 PM EDT #

the show is starting to grow on me more and more i really liked it today!! arianna was finally showing the "motherly" side to her that u see in the books and wasnt soo mean to reed! kelsey u totally rock and thomas is way hawt!!!!!

Posted by julia on August 12, 2009 at 12:02 PM EDT #

Kaite- kiran and taylor were roomates. leanne and natasha were roomates and they got leanne kicked out and thats how reed came in and was roomates with natasha but they could have put her in bradwell if they made the episodes longer because compared to theres not alot of big things in the first one only reed getting into billings, her initiation into billings, her dating thomas tht party thing at the end thomas going missing and leanne getting kicked out oh and yeah i kno they should have put her looking out of the window cause tht was also like pretty big to kno cause of the nickname - renae

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 12:04 PM EDT #

yeah i think tht its the same shelby.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 12:07 PM EDT #

is that brown haired guy dash or gage cuz i thought he was gage and the guy across the table was dash wit the blonde hair?? i really really miss constance and natasha i was soo looking forward to seeing them!! and yeah wat is up wit the "shelby" girl is she the same shelby from the books??..cant wait for tomarrow

Posted by emma on August 12, 2009 at 12:09 PM EDT #

i thought that both the episodes so far were pretty good but they should be longer. even just fifteen minute episodes because i think things are moving way too fast. like the second conversation thomas ever has with reed is him trying to kiss her? i think they should make the epis a little longer and have more things happening. reed always did what the billings girls said, and in this she doesnt. and i hope thats not dash..it listed that guy as dash in the credits but that is NOT what dash is supposed to look like.

Posted by Cassie on August 12, 2009 at 12:09 PM EDT #

We need to have that guy who plays Nate on Gossip Girl be Dash!! Now that is one cut hottie!!!

Posted by Rebecca on August 12, 2009 at 12:10 PM EDT #

i want episode 3 episode 3 episode 3!!!!! kate you should tell them to make them longerrrr!

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 12, 2009 at 12:13 PM EDT #

I swear I'm going to go to the USA and watch these videos. I can not stand this any longer!! :( I know and/or hope your trying everything you can Kate so we can watch these videos, but I just want to know, do you think we will be able to watch it? Or are we non-Americans going to have to sit in front of our screens telling us 'CONTET UNAVAILABLE' wondering what we're missing? Break the news soon so we can get over it quicker :) Love always Steffie.

Posted by Steffie on August 12, 2009 at 12:16 PM EDT #

My fave cast memeber has to be Tristen Mays. She's really pretty and seems really nice. Plus, I love her character! I didn't really think Dash was supposed to look like that. When Reed was running late for the Chapel, I was like, "She's screwd!!" When Thomas was about to kiss Reed and said that he was her new boyfriend, I was like, "Um, cocky, much?" It was so intense. I liked it how Reed put 'blue cheese' instead of 'fat-free'. When she was running for chapel, I litteraly jumped out of my seat(which knocked it over)and covered my face 'cuz I was so embarassed for her. On the last part, where Thomas was staring at Ariana and Reed, I thought he looked mad at Ariana. Did anyone else notice? ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 12, 2009 at 12:18 PM EDT #

When will it be avalible to watch in Canada???????? I wanna see it really badly:(

Posted by Emily on August 12, 2009 at 12:18 PM EDT #

URGH! Steffie know the feeling!!!it is SOOOOOOO annoying and i am going to move 2 also i saw it yesterday whicth makes it worse! cuz i know its good and i missing it!--Annar

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 12:19 PM EDT #

Um I hope that wasn't Dash sitting next to Josh. He looks nothing like the description in the books. Plus that guy looks Hispanic

Posted by Rebecca on August 12, 2009 at 12:21 PM EDT #

Yesterdays episode made me a little nervous to watch todays.. but honestly, i thought todays was so much better! Ariana is really starting to come into the character that we all want her to be. Thomas, is a total hottie, but i feel like hes coming across kinda.. stalkerish? I dont know i think i liked him better in the books, but still its awesum to finally see Thomas come to life! My fav character so far would have to be Ariana(only because of todays episode). I love Ariana even though shes a tad bit crazy! I'm crossin my fingers that the episodes continue to get better!

Posted by Rachel on August 12, 2009 at 12:26 PM EDT #

I loved this episode! it was way better then the first. When will the incident with noelle on the soccer field happen? i cant wait for that. My favorite cast member would have to be Noelle and Reed. haha it was great :) . yesterdays episode disappointed me and i thought the series wouldnt be that great but todays was awesome. keep up the great work!

Posted by Meg on August 12, 2009 at 12:28 PM EDT #

omg i cant believe that the character Dash in the show is so not...Dash! Like, ok, im thinking of Dash as like tall, extremely good looking, built like a god, and just.. literally the definition of HOT. But this guy as Dash... hmm. Kinda disappointing. I think the only really good lookin guy so far is thomas.

Posted by Rachel on August 12, 2009 at 12:29 PM EDT #

I love Samantha. Not how I pictured Noelle but her acting skills are perfect for the part. She is very pretty too. Hope she not that mean in real life =]

Posted by Viandra on August 12, 2009 at 12:29 PM EDT #

is it just me or is it like the thomas character is off like hes too wannabe badboy with the fake arrogance

Posted by hannah on August 12, 2009 at 12:30 PM EDT #

KK, honestly I'm really upset because I got all excited for this and now I can't watch it cuz i live in Canada. I think I speak for everyone there. Plz try harder to get the show in Canada, Kate.

Posted by Sylvia on August 12, 2009 at 12:31 PM EDT #

hi kate. i am a really huge fan of the books. the web series is pretty good but i just wanted to say some things i like and things i wish were better. first, the things i like, are the people who play the Billings Girls are very good and thomas and josh couldnt be any hotter! some things i wish were better were that her nickname should have been glass licker, shes not following their orders like she was supposed to in the books, the guy who plays dash doesnt look the part, and i think she should have lived in bradwell first so she could have met missy, lorna, constance, kiki, etc.

Posted by Jessica S. on August 12, 2009 at 12:32 PM EDT #

i think they should be alot longer beacuse they r wayy to shored. and wat role is nicole playing in privae becasue i saw her sitting next to josh but idk wat shes playing?

Posted by sdhashd on August 12, 2009 at 12:38 PM EDT #

If your patient enough you can do what I plan on doing next week and wait until Thursdays to watch Private. That way you can watch three new episodes all at once and it'll seem like a regular half hour show. I enjoy it either way, THANKS KATE

Posted by maam on August 12, 2009 at 12:41 PM EDT #

Ehhh..It was okay. better than the last one but still i kinda started to get into it then like 10 seconds later it was over! ughh. thomas and arianna did a pretty good job with how they looked at each other butt that was all that was good for them. reed is no doubt my fav character then it would have to be noelle. i dont really care for the others. but in the book my fav is definetly josh! he is perfect in the books. i hope they get back together in suspicion and ivy needs to go away! i dont like her. josh and ivy dont even make a good pair it should be her and gage and reed and josh. counting down til suspicion comes out! :)

Posted by Lauren on August 12, 2009 at 12:41 PM EDT #

:'( I still cant see it! and I agree, I live in Canada too, and got all hyped up and now I can't even watch it :(

Posted by Natasha White on August 12, 2009 at 12:41 PM EDT #

i like how this episode followed the book better. and i tottally called that Arriana killed shelby...wasnt shelby alive in the books?

Posted by Amanda on August 12, 2009 at 12:41 PM EDT #

I definetly liked this one better. It was relli good. NOw that i read the books i don't like ariana AT all. She used to be my favorite and when i see her now i thnk "wat a creepers" lol

Posted by lovedove on August 12, 2009 at 12:42 PM EDT #

lool same--Annar

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 12:46 PM EDT #

i still don't like it. tooo different. where are all the other billings girls? why is noelle blonde and taylor not blonde? WHY IS REED IN BILLINGS. ugh! i was looking foward to this because i was going to see the characters in action but this is NOTHING LIKE THE BOOK. btw what is up with shelby. SHE'S AN ACTUAL LIVING BILLINGS GIRL IN DA BOOKS. don't add new stuff if u havn't put in all of the old stuff.

Posted by glsfagk;fg on August 12, 2009 at 12:50 PM EDT #

I am really upset.. I'm in the UK and it let me watch the first episode.. i was sooo excited. But when i came on to watch episode 2 it wouldn't let me. Why did it let me watch the first episode and not the second?? please try and make it available to the UK!! I love it so much!!

Posted by Polly on August 12, 2009 at 12:51 PM EDT #

same polly!!!!!! i am SOOO ANNOYED WITH IT!

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 12:54 PM EDT #

Ok now I hope Dash wont be a major character... can you say crushed dreams? My god :( That was awful. Anyway, I'm really glad that now we get to see Ariana being Reed's "friend", not to mention being stunningly creepy.

Posted by Lizzie on August 12, 2009 at 12:55 PM EDT #

okay, i'm starting to freak out because I still can't watch them kate and you have sooo many fans outside the US that are absolutley dieing to watch the web series but we can't and it's really fusurating! SO please kate can you somehow try to make them available to other countries aswell because us non americans really love your series too!!!! <3 - shealyn

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 12:57 PM EDT #

I really want to see them, but im glad its not just me anna!!

Posted by Polly on August 12, 2009 at 01:00 PM EDT #

yer me too, because none of my friends read them (no matter HOW many i tell them they should be say they should read a lot of books but that is beside the point) so they don't the pain, i have been refreshing pages for 6 hours now, i even got my brother to imagine it was working for me (that didn't work, BIG surprise's there-but i tried!). but i am sooo annoyed right now!

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 01:07 PM EDT #

no offense but i don't like the kid playing dash! i mean he should be playing Gage Coolidge! yes dash is the one that said the sprinkle thing with the cupcake or something idk but the other characters are good like Thomas and Ariana are really playing there role well and reed of course and Tristin is so sweet she acts just like Taylor really well! It doesn't even matter if her physical feature's don't match Taylor. Noelle has to warm up to me yet and Kiran i like her! i spy "Cheyenne" Nicole, "Blake" Evan. in this episode! and what headmaster is that? what's her name? Love it!

Posted by elizabeth on August 12, 2009 at 01:09 PM EDT #

could some one put it on y-tube or something???

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 01:12 PM EDT #

kate can you please make it available in Canada ? im dyying to seee it!!! :(

Posted by sydney on August 12, 2009 at 01:14 PM EDT #

OR THE UK!!!! IT'S NOT JUST CANADA SAY THE REST OF THE WORLD OR SOTMHING!

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 01:16 PM EDT #

I love Thomas and Noelle. Noelle is really pretty and I do like Samantha Cope better than any of the other people in the show. Thomas is super hot tho! I wish he doesn't die because i think you should keep him on the show to keep up the "hot" factor in the episodes. But through and through its a greet series so far and maybe more exiting than the books! Every time I read the books now I think of the people in the episodes! FYI: Is there going to be a Gage??? He is one of my favorite people in the books! O and also is there going to be the Legacy cuz that's a sweet sounding party!

Posted by Megan on August 12, 2009 at 01:16 PM EDT #

omg!!! thomas is so hawt!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! i love the shows kate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by lulu on August 12, 2009 at 01:20 PM EDT #

I LOVE LOVE LOVE REED. she is by far the best.

Posted by Nicolette on August 12, 2009 at 01:24 PM EDT #

For some reason when I listen don't forget by demi lovato i thnk of josh and reed (when they broke up). I thnk its cuz when i was reading that one book i ws listening to this song and even thinking this is the perfect song to be on. You have to admit tho it is.

Posted by iluvmichaelphelps!!!!! on August 12, 2009 at 01:26 PM EDT #

i would love if i could actually watch the episode, but of course, i can't because im in freaking canada x_x

Posted by monica on August 12, 2009 at 01:27 PM EDT #

Kate, thank you soooooooooo MUCH for highlighting the peoples names permanently! It was getting kind of annoying having to highlight every comment after you read it to see who it was.

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 01:27 PM EDT #

i always pictured dash to be so much cuter, big/muscle man/ blonde abercrombie model. same with josh.. but oh well..

Posted by Jackie jenkins on August 12, 2009 at 01:37 PM EDT #

okay i have to say that my favorite character is... oh wow this is harder that i thought, okay it is between Reed, Noelle, and Ariana. I say Ariana because there is somuch more to her than meets the eye. Reed because she is a good actress and is also basically the main character. Noelle because she has this power thing about her and you cant help but feel that similarity between your friends(including you) ,& Noelle. So yeah i still cant decide. i am, however, leaning more to Noelle, you know what yeah i choose Noelle as my favorite character.

Posted by Ariana on August 12, 2009 at 01:38 PM EDT #

Oh and Dash seems more like a Gage to me. Thomas is great. Josh is perfect.

Posted by Ariana on August 12, 2009 at 01:41 PM EDT #

I loved that episode! I was suprised to see who plays the part of Dash though. Anyway, can't wait until the next one!

Posted by Alyssa on August 12, 2009 at 01:41 PM EDT #

i liked it, accept that its soooo short. its odd to see Read so opposed to billings. in the books its all she wants.

Posted by nikki on August 12, 2009 at 01:41 PM EDT #

I agree with Jackie Jenkins. That is how I pictured both Dash and Josh.

Posted by Alyssa on August 12, 2009 at 01:44 PM EDT #

Kate? I just remembered about Ariana's necklace. When are we going to see it because it is a huge symbol of her past time with her mom before she got sick? The necklace is extremely important. Happy early Birthday Justine! i hope its great!

Posted by Ariana on August 12, 2009 at 01:49 PM EDT #

can you PLEASE make sure people in CANADA can watch them, im going crazzy!!!!! but for some reason i could watch the first one on facebook but not the second :'(. please get it in canada!!!:)

Posted by Allyssa on August 12, 2009 at 01:54 PM EDT #

Can somebody mabye put the episodes on youtube!! PLEASE! I would love you forever and i'm speaking for the millions of other fans who can't watch it too.

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 01:56 PM EDT #

i looooove Noelle!! I think Samantha Cope plays her so true. She is so pretty and mean but i like her. hah i hope she nice in real life but she is my hero

Posted by rachel on August 12, 2009 at 02:00 PM EDT #

i'm not going to be on the computer for about a week so hopefully when I get back the web series will finally be available to other countries aswell <3

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 02:05 PM EDT #

I like the way the shows aren't exactly like the books! At first I was afraid it would be weird to watch the shows because I already read the books, but now I'm happy!:) XD Luv the books and the show! Luv Private and Privilege!

Posted by Briana on August 12, 2009 at 02:11 PM EDT #

Don't like the series at all, they just change way too much and it's too short. I wish they just did a movie instead of these short episodes that don't even go along with the books. It's okay to change a little but way too many things are different, I can't even keep up. What a dissapointment.

Posted by so dissapointed on August 12, 2009 at 02:15 PM EDT #

hey! i was wondering if there was another place we could watch the episodes? i live in canada and cant watch them :(

Posted by Ayesha on August 12, 2009 at 02:17 PM EDT #

Thanks Ariana!

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 02:17 PM EDT #

wow. no one is even closed to being as hot as i imagined them being. except Thomas maybe. what happened to Josh's curly, blonde hair and Dash being super hot?

Posted by mel on August 12, 2009 at 02:25 PM EDT #

Don't be negative. There are many more episodes to come. We will get used to all the characters differences. It will grow on us. I'm loving it! Can't wait to see more episodes. I<3Private

Posted by Katie on August 12, 2009 at 02:43 PM EDT #

Oh i have to watch it! Please when r people in other country going to be able to watch it? D:

Posted by Carolina on August 12, 2009 at 02:54 PM EDT #

what?! i pictured dash like tall, rugid, built big like football type cutie who is extremely hot! this guy who is playing him reminds me of a skinny nerd i am so mad right now

Posted by Sammy on August 12, 2009 at 02:59 PM EDT #

This episode was wayyy better i mean i liked the fist ep 2 but i felt that this one captured the essence of the books better. i like thomas but he seems kinda stalkerish and overwhelming in the show. does anyone feel that 2?? all in all much better and im very anxious to c the next epie on thurs! ;D

Posted by Natalie on August 12, 2009 at 03:00 PM EDT #

it was okay i mean not as bad as yesterdays but what is up with thomas being possesive and stalker-like. i did not like dash he is scrawny and icky. i kinda like the whole shelby dying thing its very mysterious and i thin that maybe just maybe the show is catching on to me.....just a little

Posted by juno on August 12, 2009 at 03:03 PM EDT #

i didnt like dash that much either but hey who am i to say anything as long as he can act and portray the character well then fine. i think that about all the characters but really i'm not worried since i think everyone in the cast is amazing. lets just c if the newcomers prove worthy of their spots on the show

Posted by natalie on August 12, 2009 at 03:05 PM EDT #

my fave character would have to be reed. i think kelsey portrays her wonderfully and although i feel as if she stands up for herself more in the show than in the books i still think she is very close to who reed really is. i think her being this way on the show shows how strong she is and that she will own up to these girls. i am really happy with the show overall great job!! C:

Posted by natalie on August 12, 2009 at 03:10 PM EDT #

Now I get how Ariana could be considered Reed's first billings friend aside from Taylor. But I LOVE THE SHOW!!!

Posted by Leah on August 12, 2009 at 03:10 PM EDT #

Don't get me wrong, I love the show, but it is kind of bothering me that it is a lot different than the books! I like most of the characters. Can't wait for the next episode!

This second episode so downhill, when these billings girls make Reed served up their food to eat and she took too long as they left the cafe to the chapel for the academy meeting as Reed met that guy thomas while missing the meeting and breaking the rule, that's way sucks to seen of it when a secret that Ariana told Reed about Thomas...so weird.

Posted by Gia on August 12, 2009 at 03:14 PM EDT #

Hey Kate, I love the show so far and it's really good, I think thomas is really cute but I don't think he has good acting skills at all it kind of messed that up ..and by the way is this show eventually going to go on tv? if so that would be neat:) -Haley

Posted by haley on August 12, 2009 at 03:19 PM EDT #

Okay and can anybody see Noelle dating that guy!? No offense but that is just not even close to Dash

Posted by Lauren on August 12, 2009 at 03:20 PM EDT #

I love the show but I think that they should be longer too. I mean I just want more and more! And I didn't picture Dash that way either but I think he could grow on me if he can have the same attitude as Dash from the books. All in all though I love the series and can't wait for more.

Posted by Becca on August 12, 2009 at 03:20 PM EDT #

Hey! Private is my favorite series and I really want to see it but I just moved to the UK. when can I see it...

Posted by audrey on August 12, 2009 at 03:23 PM EDT #

UUUUGGGGHHHHH!!!!!! I just really want to see it. Please put it on like utube...

Posted by audrey on August 12, 2009 at 03:38 PM EDT #

hey my favorite character so far is thomas cuz he is sexy hot!!!!!!! i got so mad when ariana interrupted their kiss, though. oh and 4 those who are confused, that guy sho wanted the cupcake is...dash :( cuz if you look at the credits when the show ends, next to dash is "omar chavez" so he plays dash. and "dash" look hispanic to me and match it up with the name and youve got your answer!

Posted by tatti on August 12, 2009 at 03:39 PM EDT #

Ok... I am not saying the guy who plays Thomas isn't cute but... honestly, I think the guy who plays Jossh is a lot cuter. I like his smile!:D

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 03:42 PM EDT #

ok...my favorite character is Reed but thomas is hott! i cant believe they killed shelby tho!!! i think thats cool that they made nicole a billings girl even tho she didnt win...and dash is all wrong

Posted by Stephanie on August 12, 2009 at 03:48 PM EDT #

still cant see it could you change the format??

Posted by bahar on August 12, 2009 at 03:49 PM EDT #

i like the series, its just sooo much different then the books. dash is supposed to be blonde and gorgeous, this guy doesnt even remind me of gage either cause gage is supposed to be really muscular isnt he ? but whateverr ! taylor is definetly growing me... the actress is starting to remind me of how taylor is in the book. i cant wait for the next episode !

Posted by cattt on August 12, 2009 at 03:53 PM EDT #

I absolutely LOVE Taylor!! She has to be my favorite character in the web series so far!

Posted by Rebecca on August 12, 2009 at 03:56 PM EDT #

Please let it play in Canada, Kate. I'm begging you.

Posted by Julie on August 12, 2009 at 04:00 PM EDT #

hey kate!!! i cant wait until suspicion comes out and im dying to know who jumped into the ocean to save reed...i think its sawyer because its the perfect oppurtunity to warm up his character. and please kate, pretty please....i need more josh! he is perfect in the books and i really hope he and reed get back together:)

Posted by kelly on August 12, 2009 at 04:08 PM EDT #

I really want to watch it but i'm in Turkey and it won't open =(( I hope Kate will find a solution! But by chance, after many tries i managed to open the 1. episode!! I don't know how.. xD xxx

Posted by yelena.. on August 12, 2009 at 04:17 PM EDT #

Okay...Loved episode 2. My favorite characters so far are Everyone!!!! I can't choose. They all are really great. I was shocked that Dash didn't have blonde hair. Natalie Floyd is perfect for Ariana. She looks like the type that could kill. I mean that in a positive way of course. Can't wait till tomorrow to see epi 3.

Posted by Desi on August 12, 2009 at 04:17 PM EDT #

i think that reed is perfect for the role, ariana is great, and thomas and josh are both adorable, even without josh's perfect curls ): I still think Taylor should have blonde hair, and noelle with brown, but i love both of the actresses. the shows are great i just wish they were longer!!

Posted by ashley on August 12, 2009 at 04:18 PM EDT #

i LOVED dash's character in the books, but i don't think the actor for him fits at all. Dash is supposed to be gorgeous and look like an abercrombie model.

Posted by ashley on August 12, 2009 at 04:21 PM EDT #

You know what ? Why always only English and American guys can watch episodes and everything ??? I am from Poland, there are only 4 books now, well i read a lot of about Private Series and i lov it. But why we, from Poland, are so... hmmm... why we hav got only 4 books, and even we cant watch videos ?? why ? say only it . Polish funs.

Posted by Dominika on August 12, 2009 at 04:24 PM EDT #

Okay, I kinda take my last comment back. But I still think Reed should have had to work to get in Billings! But I looooovvve Reed, Thomas, and Ariana! If that was Dash, why was he sitting by Kiran?

Posted by Noelle1 on August 12, 2009 at 04:47 PM EDT #

In the 11th Private Reed has arrived back to Easton after her harrowing kidnapping to the worst thing she can think of - Billings has been torn down. Finally, after years of controversy from the administration, the school's wealthiest female alumni have been overruled and the historical dorm is gone from Easton Academy. How will Reed and the rest of the Billings Girls handle this? Will they still be as powerful, as popular and as mean with literally no ground to stand on? IS THIS TRUE? SCANDAL DESCRIPTION!

Posted by :O on August 12, 2009 at 04:49 PM EDT #

for those of u who r wonderin y the episodes r so short, i think its because its on 3 times a week and if u add all the episode times up its probly aroun 20 mins. and thats how long normal shows r not including commercials. but normal shows r only on once a week. but im not posotive if thats the reason, its just a thought

Posted by alley on August 12, 2009 at 04:51 PM EDT #

Okay. The episodes are growing on me but they still makes me mad. The episodes need to be a little bit more closer to the books. Also Dash is supposed to have blonde hair not black. Anywho, i was glad Nicole was in the episode. Who is she supposed to be playing?

Posted by :) on August 12, 2009 at 04:53 PM EDT #

My favorite role is Ariana! i think she plays her really well and if i hadnt read the books i would never would of thot that she would be a murderer...over all i think its suuuuper great!!!

Posted by Lauren on August 12, 2009 at 04:59 PM EDT #

Yeah my favorite is Ariana. She probably pushed that girl off the roof for Thomas and obviously she tries to do the same thing to Reed. She's a beeeyotch but you gotta love her!!

Posted by Jamie on August 12, 2009 at 05:04 PM EDT #

I like the Thomas in the book better. But this one is still good. My favorite character so far is Reed. My favorite Billings girl is Taylor. I love this show. I can't wait til' tomorrow for another episode. I have one problem with the episodes: They are to short.

Posted by Sydney on August 12, 2009 at 05:06 PM EDT #

Hmmm... I liked this episode, alot more then the first one and i thought the first one was really good. My only problem with it was Dash... I know that from book to screen there are going to be alot of changes and differences... but wasnt expecting that. Anyways I really like Josh, he's got that cute sensitive thing down. I cant wait to see more of him. The guy who plays Thomas is really good looking but it seems like he's trying to hard to get that bad boy thing down. Besides that I think the girls are all great and i cant wait to watch more.

Posted by Rebecca on August 12, 2009 at 05:12 PM EDT #

OMG! This episode was sooo good! I'm so happy theres going to be a Dash! I can't wait for more! My favorite character so far is Noelle! I think she is perfect for the part, even though she's blonde.

Posted by Marissa on August 12, 2009 at 05:21 PM EDT #

Rebecca - It's on wikipedia if you search private novels :P :P

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 05:38 PM EDT #

That guy did not look like a dash:( oh well. these episodes are really short. i think they shoukld combine them so theyre like 15 minutes. still they where good. but i wish constance ws it..

Posted by Bailey on August 12, 2009 at 05:39 PM EDT #

Where did you get the discription for Scandal?! If you wrote that yourself it was pretty convincing. You should probably be a writer! O and if you can get a discription to a book that isn't coming out until next March,(I think) you probably know where I can read the second chapter of Suspicion. SO TELL ME RIGHT NOW!!!!! Jk!:D

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 05:39 PM EDT #

can someone please post the episodes on youtube for people that cant watch them in canada ! please and thank you

Posted by Mehwish on August 12, 2009 at 05:40 PM EDT #

im so annoyed im really starting to think that kate brian isnt even trying to make it avalible to people outside the states cause if she really cared about us she would just post it on youtube!the trailer is on teen.coms youtube channel and they could put the episodes up there too or on there website but for some reason she wont let them! IM SO FREAKIN MAD!

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 05:52 PM EDT #

where does Contance come in?

Posted by tessa on August 12, 2009 at 05:52 PM EDT #

Well, I'm still sort of disappointed. Where's Constance? And why does Dash have black hair? And the scene with Thomas and Reed wasn't that good. Thomas is supposed to be more....charming.

Posted by Maria on August 12, 2009 at 05:56 PM EDT #

Okay srsly i dont think the character choices are good. Actually, Reed and Thomas, and maybe Ariana are fine. But Kiran? Rly? Shes supposed to be a model...thats all I have to say bout her..and Noelle just doesnt look like Noelle. Just srsly, bad charcter choices. No joke.

Posted by Rachel on August 12, 2009 at 06:07 PM EDT #

I WOULD REALLY REALLY REALLY LIKE TO SEE TE SERIEES. KATE, PLEASE MAKE IT POSSIBLE...WHEN YOUR NOT OCCUPIED OFFCOURSE. .thaaank you

Posted by Katerime on August 12, 2009 at 06:10 PM EDT #

Ariana is perfect. She gorgeous and has an elegance about her that I think is needed in order to be a Billings girl. Reed is really pretty and I like how Noelle is portrayed in this. I just love that this was made. I want to see tomorrows episode NOW

Posted by Amanda on August 12, 2009 at 06:16 PM EDT #

Hey, have u guys outside of the U.S. tried teen.com?

Posted by Angel on August 12, 2009 at 06:20 PM EDT #

i got it off wikipedia?! why would i make that up? wth go look

Posted by <3 on August 12, 2009 at 06:21 PM EDT #

Justine- (first comment) yay happy birthday!/ my favorite? probably the Taylor actress. she doesnt look quite like how the books describe her, but she's really in character. she acts exactly like how i imagined! /but there is one thing that really annoys me- when Reed walks up to Billings in the first episode, i was disappointed. it just isn't the gorgeous house i imagined. in additon, there were a lot of windows that were broken. i just don't think that Billings would let that happen. /otherwise, all the acting is really good. the ariana actress gets it perfectly- like where she's talking about shelby. you can practically hear the air-quotes around "accident". that made me smile. /anyway, yeah. good webshow so far, i hope it gets on TV though, because i think it would be better on TV. =) (each / means a paragraph that the site wouldnt let me put separate...lol)

Posted by Lili on August 12, 2009 at 06:26 PM EDT #

wait, did arianna kill that girl shelby. anyways my fav charecter is thomas, then reed, then taylor, then josh, then arianna. oh yeah, who does nicole play

Posted by mckenna on August 12, 2009 at 06:28 PM EDT #

it's a spoof. someone obviously edited it. it's wikipedia after all. why would the description for scandal be out already if kate is still writing the book, says so on her twitter. so why would she put the description now when she hasn't finished writing the book esp. when she usually posts it a month before the release. don't be so gullible

Posted by JENNIFER on August 12, 2009 at 06:33 PM EDT #

thomas is so hott!! wow perfect i think dash should b hotter and i miss constance too. i dont really like how she is in billings in the beginning. i defiantly think they should b longer! and ya who is nicole playing ? well LOVVVVE this series!

Posted by rachel on August 12, 2009 at 06:50 PM EDT #

is the description of scandal that's out real because it seems like it could be fake?

Posted by jess on August 12, 2009 at 07:07 PM EDT #

Okay, I have some things to put. Where's Constance? What role does Nicole play? I think Dash looks more like a Gage. Thomas is kinda stalkerish, but totally hawt. Josh is cute. My fave character has to be Noelle, and then Ariana and Taylor are neck-and-neck for my second fav. I like the changes to the series(at least you can be kept on the edge of your seats instead of just leaning back and saying "Oh, this is about to happen...") I totally don't mind at all about the changes of the scenery, but I DO mind the changes in the characters. Make Dash into Gage, Noelle brunette, and ... well, actually, I like how Taylor is. Tristen is doing an AMAZING job with her character. I think Brant is trying too hard and should ease up a bit, 'cuz he's making it obvious that he's trying too hard. Follow your own advise you gave to the contestents for Kiran ;) And thanks, Kate, for making the names highlighted! Both epie were great, but I honestly liked epie 2 better. Can't wait for tomorrow's!

Kate is it true that in scandel billings is torn down??? i luved the second episode im glad they come out three days in a row

Posted by Catherine on August 12, 2009 at 07:09 PM EDT #

Oh, and by the way, for whoever said that the windows in Billings House was broken, it's not broken. Actually, those are called Stained-Glass Windows(the windows in churches)

Posted by Janie on August 12, 2009 at 07:11 PM EDT #

Heres the link if u want to read the discription for scandel...http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Private_(novel_series) scroll down til u c the book titles

Posted by Catherine on August 12, 2009 at 07:12 PM EDT #

Lol, Jess. Just had a bunch of stuff to say so I was trying to make it short. Now I don't have to put ~Janie~ at the end of every comment XD PS: Natalie, you're doing an awesome job with Ariana! PSS: Samantha, Kelsey, Tristen, you're all beautiful and are doing awesome jobs with your characters!!! Love you all(including you, Kate ;) <3) XoXo

Posted by Janie on August 12, 2009 at 07:13 PM EDT #

well i think the scandal description is fake 1. kate isn't even done writing it (i think) and 2. There isn't even a description for suspicion yet so i think that it is fake!!! and yes us non americans have tried teen.cpm well at least I have and it still doesn't work!!! :@ i'm so annoyed tht we can't watch it!! Kate please try and find a solution<3

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 07:16 PM EDT #

Oops, sorry, Nicole, Sanna. Forgot to mention you. Distracted by the music. Both of you are beautiful, too ;) Sanna, you really do look like a model and a Kiran and act really good. Don't listen to what people say. I hope the producers and actors/actresses read these comments 'cuz critisism always helps improve on anything that needs to be improved. Plus, Tristen, you're really doing a good job at keeping your word with "Trying to live up to the expectations of the fans" ;) <3 XoXo PS: I totally think that Ariana killed Shelby, because, remember Last Christmas, she LOVES Thomas

Posted by Janie on August 12, 2009 at 07:17 PM EDT #

shealyn the description of suspicion is out!!!

Posted by jess on August 12, 2009 at 07:18 PM EDT #

omg jess!!! it is?? wth how did I miss tht and where is it!!

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 07:19 PM EDT #

Shealyn, there is a discription for Suspicion out. Go to: http://books.simonandschuster.com/Suspicion/Kate-Brian/Private/9781416958857 There's your discription. Simon Says is Kate's publishers, I think. But I do agree with the people who are saying that the description to Scandal is fake because I think Kate is already writing it since she's most likely already done with Suspicion. Damn, how I hate waiting for books I love!

Posted by Janie on August 12, 2009 at 07:23 PM EDT #

ok thanks janie and i know I hate waiting for books that i love too!!!

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 07:24 PM EDT #

wait!! that can't be the suspicion description because we already know all of that from paradise lost!!

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 07:27 PM EDT #

Ok For the description for Scandal... Um don't believe everything you read on the web. It needs to come from a reliable source and Wikipedia is FAR from it. Anyone could have wrote the description to Scandal. But it might be true and it might not, lets just hope that a RELIABLE source like simonandschuster.com is.DO NOT TRUST WIKIPEDIA!!!!!!

Posted by Rebecca on August 12, 2009 at 07:34 PM EDT #

Seriously? i can find it anywhere! i have tried the website, teen.com, facebook, that pretty little liars site, i wont let me watch it!!!!!! Anyone who is good with computers and stuff, can you PLEASE put it on youtube?

Posted by Emily on August 12, 2009 at 07:37 PM EDT #

I wish that they AT LEAST said that Reed didn't start out in Billings!!! She didn't. And they left out the part where Reed spies on the Billings girls. That totally ruins it...Even though I've read the books, I still like the show, just not as much. Also, I didn't imagine the characters to look like that...espically Taylor and Noelle. Oh, well. It's still good. :)

Posted by Rachel :) on August 12, 2009 at 07:42 PM EDT #

omg!! i love the web show. even tho it is different then the series...it keeps me on the edge of my seat! i looove it!

I love that the books and the show are different! I mean, would you enjoy it if everything was word for word? And eventually after all the episodes are together it will be pretty long, like movie length! Thanks for the series Kate! -Kendal

Posted by Kendal on August 12, 2009 at 08:23 PM EDT #

IT DIDN'T EVEN GO WITH THE BOOK!

Posted by Stupid on August 12, 2009 at 08:32 PM EDT #

KATE.....i thnik all these people are saying that you should've sticked with the book. WHICH I TOTALLY AGREE! and that you definentily should have made it into a full hour TV show like GOSSIP GIRL. WHICH I STRONGLY AGREE! and that most of the characters are'nt even in the web series.(which is stupid!) and don't get me wrong but JOSH HOLLIS IS NOT ABSOLUTELY NOT CUTE AT ALLLLL! soooo.....if you had a chance to strt all over and make it into a full hour tv show.....would you?? FANS: IF YOU WANT KATE BRIAN TO RE-MAKE THIS WHOLE SHOW AND MAKE IT INTO A FULL HOUR TV SHOW. THEN WE SHOULD STRT SOMETHING ABOUTI IT!

Posted by MIMI on August 12, 2009 at 08:34 PM EDT #

********Now i think we should definentily start a petition...lol. but no joke.

Posted by merissa on August 12, 2009 at 08:37 PM EDT #

The second episode was amazing!!! The characters are really great and I saw Nicole from the casting call!! Yay! The only thing I was disappointed in was Dash!!!! If the adorable Josh wouldn't have said his name, I would have thought it was Gage because that's how you described Gage in the books, even the personality (comment about the cupcake!!) And plus Dash is supposed to blonde and brawny and model-good looks. But I understand they can't get all the characters perfect ;] Overall, I am seriously hooked on it x] AWESOME SHOW!!

Posted by Blaire on August 12, 2009 at 08:42 PM EDT #

Some of you guys want this to be an hour show? when i think about, thats means you guys actually SAW it. you should feel lucky becuz there are a lot of people (like me) who cant even watch the ten min. that make the show. things like this really bug me

Posted by Eam on August 12, 2009 at 08:51 PM EDT #

OMG! Don't trust Wikipedia! Did you notice that on the Wikipedia page with the description of Scandal that the Suspicion descrition was NOT on there?! I think the description for Suspicion would be on there before the Scandal discription. O and Rebecca? You don't know that Scandal is the last of the books in the Private series! Reed still has her senior year ahead of her!:D

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 08:55 PM EDT #

hi kate i just wanted to say that i dont understand why reed is rebelling so much. in the book she is supposed to worship the billings girls...so i was wondering if u or someone could clear that up for me.

Posted by Jessica:) on August 12, 2009 at 09:02 PM EDT #

I totally lovin Thomas... he is just like I thought in the book!!! I love Kelsey too... she's doing a really good job of being Reed!!! And Arianna still gives me the chills... such an amazing series so far!!! Can't wait for more!!! -- xoxo Isabella

Posted by Yasmin on August 12, 2009 at 09:11 PM EDT #

Hey Kate, big private fan here, I was just wondering how it's comming along with trying to get it in Canada. I was just thinking if you yourself Kate, could put the episodes on youtube for all of us Canadian fans. It would be AWESOME if you did and could! Can't wait for the new Private book comes out, so EXCITED!!!

Posted by Erica on August 12, 2009 at 09:20 PM EDT #

Where is gage???? he's my favorite character!!! they better put him in the show and he had better be super hot and muscular cuz thats how i pictured him.

Posted by HolaGirl on August 12, 2009 at 09:21 PM EDT #

so i commented earlier that i liked reed the best but i think i like ariana the best. i think shes the closest to the character in the book. i think thomas is just a little too cocky for my taste but thats just me. i was listening to taylor swift and her song the way i loved you made me think of reed and josh when theyre broken up...listen to it!

Posted by Stephanie on August 12, 2009 at 09:24 PM EDT #

Gage isn't muscular in the description, I don't think. And, Rebecca, I TOTALLY AGREE WITH YOU!! If you don't like the webseries, DON'T WATCH IT! You should be grateful that they even made one for us! You canNOT create commotion just 'cuz you're unhappy about something. Relax! Damn.

Posted by Janie on August 12, 2009 at 09:44 PM EDT #

I love the web series i just wish it was longer! :) My fave ppl are Noelle and Reed. They are both awesome! Cant wait for the next web show!!!

Posted by Mickey on August 12, 2009 at 09:46 PM EDT #

no he was. he was tall with broad shoulders, dark hair muscular and HOT. thats what i think

Posted by HolaGirl on August 12, 2009 at 10:01 PM EDT #

okay, i really like the web series. i mean i dont like it as much as the books but they are still good! wow i really hope that they make a web show for Privilege! i think i like those books even better than Private. well i wont see the next show untill tomorrow night but i'm excited!

once again i am going to stick up for all the negative nancys when i say this...we still want to watch the series because it is still pretty good but people tend to focus on the bad instead of the good in a given situation. we are pointing out the bad so that hopefully they will change it and make the series better. no need to use any caps lock though yelling is a waste of breath..

Posted by Lauren on August 12, 2009 at 10:13 PM EDT #

I can't wait for Reed and Thomas to Kiss...perhaps soon? haha. EVERYONE come join the chat they have set up to discuss each show. It's so much fun. Here is the link http://savorchat.com/r/t2 HOPE TO TALK TO YOU THERE!!!!

Posted by Kaila on August 12, 2009 at 11:06 PM EDT #

hey well i know this has nothing to do with the show right now.. but a while ago when i finished reading the fourth book confessions well i kinda figured out that well if im right there was this mistake cause you see after the woods when thomas "humiliates" reed infront of everyone he goes and apologizes to reed the next morning rememebr? well it couldnt be cause that night he was supposed to be kidnapped by the billings girls and murdered by ariana.. so guys if you could please help me out here if im wrong or somethingg thankss btw lovig the showw!!<3

Posted by steff on August 12, 2009 at 11:14 PM EDT #

my best friend and I are completely obsessed by Kate's books and it's kind of an embarassement that the videos are that bad. The only kudos i give the casting job is that the actor that plays Thomas is extremely sexy. Other than that, NONE of the characters match their descriptions in the books. Taylor is blonde, Kiran is supposed to be beautiful and Noelle is a BRUNETTE, and at least the hair color should be correct! The Private series is by far the best series i've ever read and Kate deserves at least a 30 minute episode that matches the books plot. Gossip girl wasn't even good, yet they got an hour long episode and considering how many people love the private series there should be a show. Kate Brian....you're my idol....just saying

Posted by hallie on August 12, 2009 at 11:24 PM EDT #

Kaila.... oh my gosh you're absolutely right! The only reason the billings girls beat Thomas was because of what he did to reed, so technicaly he was supposed to be murdered that night...wait did he apologize to her in person or on text?

Posted by hallie on August 12, 2009 at 11:28 PM EDT #

oops i meant Steff...lol

Posted by hallie on August 12, 2009 at 11:29 PM EDT #

Can you please make the shows longer and closer to the books! They are amazing and you should stay true to them. What happened to Reed going to Bradwell first and wheres Contsance, Missy, Kiki, Lorna and all the other Billings Girls like the Twin Cities? As for the guys wheres Dash and Gage? Don't get me wrong I LOVE the shows but maybe make it alittle more true to the stories and not rush everything in one 7 minute episode. Oh and Taylor isn't even Reeds roomate once shes in Billings, its Natasha and Easton doesnt even have uniforms! Once again, LOVE the shows but i would love if they were more true. xoxoxo

Posted by Morgan on August 12, 2009 at 11:29 PM EDT #

Reed and Ariana are my favorites. :D They're both very pretty. I was a bit disappointed in how Dash looked because he was supposed to be the best looking guy on campus, but I think Thomas and Josh are more handsome. A great series, though! I can't wait for tomorrow's episode.

Posted by Christina on August 12, 2009 at 11:39 PM EDT #

ok everybody, im pretty sure the description for scandal is false because its waaay too early to have it out. and also, you can so tell that wasnt kate brian who wrtoe it...its just not her style. and usually she has a single line, such as "reed is falling in love." so dont believe any of it!!

Posted by kim on August 12, 2009 at 11:59 PM EDT #

What does Blake have to do with the shows? Do you guys remember when the had that thing that said who was was who and thay had blake but not Dash or Gage or Constance or Missy ect. Blake had a much smaller role than any of them in the books. I'm done blabbing now.

Posted by Emily on August 13, 2009 at 12:16 AM EDT #

Sorry for the language, Ariana. xD Btw, right on, Kim! Omg, later today's the 3rd epie! I'm SUPER excited!

Posted by Janie on August 13, 2009 at 12:17 AM EDT #

Totally agree with you, Emily.

Posted by Janie on August 13, 2009 at 12:18 AM EDT #

oh my..the guy playing dash should REALLY be playing Gage what were they thinking? Even his personality is exactly how i pictured Gage well whatever i like the girl playing Ariana A LOT and reed's a little aggressive but i still like her. Who's Nicole portraying when she's like "where's the new girl?"

Posted by samantha on August 13, 2009 at 12:44 AM EDT #

halley and steff- it says in the book that they do that to him the next night not the same night it actaully happens so thomas can come talk to reed.

Posted by Lauren on August 13, 2009 at 12:44 AM EDT #

So this show is really growing on me. Thomas is incredibly hot! oh my word lol. anyways i love it!

Posted by Payton on August 13, 2009 at 12:56 AM EDT #

I cant remember who said it but Thomas wasnt killed that night after that forest party. He did go back and he was all bloodshot n stuff. Its the day after the party it happens. And then later that night Ariana goed back to kil him. Its also the night Josh is at the art cemetery. It does make sense when u reli reli read it. Hope it helps :) xx Yasmin p.s: Im still dying to watch the show!!!

Posted by Yasmin on August 13, 2009 at 01:00 AM EDT #

yasmin and hallie: so he got drunk even after he had promised reed not to do it again? cause he was all drunkie when the billings girls kidnapped him remember?

Posted by steff on August 13, 2009 at 01:13 AM EDT #

yeah but as everyone always said, he was always drunk. just becuz he told reed he was going to stop. no it was the next day ive gotta go now. byee xx Yasmin

Posted by Yasmin on August 13, 2009 at 01:20 AM EDT #

oohh okay now i get it thankss girlss! btw i think that nicole is natasha.. idk why

Posted by steff on August 13, 2009 at 01:26 AM EDT #

I'm pretty disappointed. It's so fast paced that it's lost a lot of key points...so sad...oh well, what can you expect right? And Dash is so not as hot as I imagined...or Josh for that matter...=(

Posted by Jerica on August 13, 2009 at 01:29 AM EDT #

Wow!!!!! I really liked the series....but the show is ruining it for me!!!! I was so excited for the show but now IDTS. Well at least the books are good right!!!

Posted by mary on August 13, 2009 at 01:37 AM EDT #

Why make a web series if its not gonna be good? What a waste of money!!!!!!!

Posted by Mary on August 13, 2009 at 01:41 AM EDT #

It's best just to not relate the web series to the book series...how disappointing.

Posted by Jerica on August 13, 2009 at 01:46 AM EDT #

Fearless i agreee...chace would be ideal:]

Posted by Danielle on August 13, 2009 at 02:15 AM EDT #

For all the people that say that das, josh and all the other guys are SO not hot..I agree with you but...just keep watching and maybe they will grow on you. Especially Josh since he is such a cute bf i bet that will make him ten times hotter. Trust me it happens all the time to me when i watch movies and its romanitc. Oh and for those poeple who got the description on wiki for SCANDAL...dont listen to it cuz wiki isnt a good website to visit for info. Anyone at any age can change the info. I could rite now if I wanted too (I would never do that tho lol). Thats why a lot of schools don't let u use wiki for repots or essays.

Posted by lovedove on August 13, 2009 at 02:40 AM EDT #

kate...can you PLEASE help me?!?!?! i haven't even watch the 1st episode yet...can u upload it on youtube or on your blog..please??? i wanna wathc it!!! =((

Posted by afreena on August 13, 2009 at 03:32 AM EDT #

i'm begging you PLEASEEEEE make them avalible for people outside the US! I'm sooo desperate to watch them!!!

Posted by Gemma on August 13, 2009 at 03:35 AM EDT #

pretty please, make it available in singapore? :)

Posted by Siti on August 13, 2009 at 03:54 AM EDT #

I agree with Siti PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE make private avaliable in Singapore :) xxx

Posted by Aloise on August 13, 2009 at 06:43 AM EDT #

Okay! Im back in France so now the point is to see the rest, right? Okay please fix it!!!! Cant wait for suspicion!!!!

Posted by Ariane on August 13, 2009 at 07:06 AM EDT #

I think that Ariana pushes Shelby (Thomas' last girlfriend) off the roof of billings becasue remember the scene with Reed? She had to get her up the roof to kill her.

Posted by Kiki on August 13, 2009 at 09:18 AM EDT #

That was Dash? Are you kidding me??? He looks NOTHING like dash. I imagined more of a Kellan Lutz or Chase Crawford.

Posted by kjsfsdkfn on August 13, 2009 at 09:33 AM EDT #

kiki- i was thinking the same thing like she was jealous tht shelby was dating thomas and pushed her.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 13, 2009 at 09:34 AM EDT #

people...stop complaining! they obviously weren't able to make the series like the book...so just get over it! the web show is really good if you don't connect it to the books. my 9 year old sister is watching it with me and she loves it! She even wants to read the books (she won't be reading it for a LONG time). so people...if you don't like it, don't watch if you r gonna be dissapointed.

Posted by Kaila on August 13, 2009 at 09:35 AM EDT #

OMGosh!!! i love Taylor she's the best!! and the private series rocks. i can't wait for new episodes to come out

Posted by marilyn on August 13, 2009 at 10:01 AM EDT #

Okay so I am in the process of RE-reading Last Christmas... And in the book Thomas asked Ariana about her siblings and Ariana totally didn't want to go there and just ignored the question?! I wonder why she didn't want to bring up Sabine? If anybody knows...

Posted by Lauren on August 13, 2009 at 10:04 AM EDT #

oh yeah when i read it i saw tht i was like hmmmm....

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 13, 2009 at 10:18 AM EDT #

I really like the changes the web series made. I love the books, but I like that there are a few new twists. Reed and Ariana's actresses portray their characters perfectly. Noelle may be blonde, but she's still very Noelle. I can't wait for the next episode!

Posted by Becca on August 13, 2009 at 10:25 AM EDT #

afreena- they are on her blog.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 13, 2009 at 10:28 AM EDT #

Oh! And in Last Christmas everyone is going their separate ways for Christmas, but in Paradise Lost they have been going to St. Barts since they were in diapers. Lol just thought I would point that out

Posted by Lauren on August 13, 2009 at 10:44 AM EDT #

Lauren. I think Last Christmas came out before Revelation which means that we had not learned that Sabine was Ariana's sister yet. If we learned that before Revelation came out then we would probably have expected Sabine for all of Reed's problems, and then we wouldn't have been suprised!

Posted by Justine on August 13, 2009 at 10:46 AM EDT #

Wow. These are amazing. It's too bad it's not a real TV show because I'm sure a lot of people would've watched it. As for my favorite character? Definatley Reed, she is exactly how I pictured her. And Thomas is too cute. Great job on the web series.

Posted by Allie on August 13, 2009 at 11:04 AM EDT #

Hey Kate i like REed and Noelle. Oh and Taylor. They all play there parts perfectly. Reed is exactly how i pictured her. any way i just watched episode three on teen.com and they keep getting shorter and shorter. At this rate they wont ever finish the series...can you have th episode last a little longer because you get all psyched and then i lasts for five minutes and is done.

Posted by K on August 13, 2009 at 11:07 AM EDT #

I like glass licker better than trailer park. Trailer park could be more offensive

Posted by K on August 13, 2009 at 11:11 AM EDT #

hey kate, can u plzzz make the episodes long cuz i just watched the 3rd and its like reallyyyyy short! omgosh i luv luv luv noelle reed in the 3rd episode!!! and of course taylor and arianna r great too!!! just plz plz make them longer!!

Posted by julia on August 13, 2009 at 11:13 AM EDT #

these girls are so beautiful, plzzz make the episodes longer. i can't get enough and i want to see more of the other characters. evan is the hawist.

Posted by Kathy on August 13, 2009 at 11:35 AM EDT #

whoa ! love love loveee the second episode ; alot is different.. but different can sometimes be good. i think the "shelby" is kind of a reference to last christmas & thomas' ex which arian so kindly got rid of... and i'm glad to see that taylor's still taylor.. she's kind to reed - i like that.. but the chemistry with reed and thomas..wow ! love it.. noelle seems to be living up to her character in the book.. but i'm use to 'glass licker' . trailor park just doesn't have that same mockery it should... so far, really good. i mean edge of my seat good.

Posted by cantrell on August 13, 2009 at 04:13 PM EDT #

I like the cast, they are all good actors, but the ones that suit their part best are Arianna and Kiran. I was disappointed by Noelle, but perhaps she will grow on me. She just doesn't seem powerful enough, and I agree that if that is Dash then he isn't fitting either.

Posted by Taylor on August 13, 2009 at 04:26 PM EDT #

the private episodes don't relate to the original private books.....i was hoping that the episodes would be what i had in my imagination while reading each book in the series.....i wish that you would include the characters that you included in your books....the characters are unalike what the descriptions were in the books....please take the books and when you read them take your imagination and make it in the movie...don't create a new story off the episodes

Posted by Sam on August 13, 2009 at 05:00 PM EDT #

The show is good, but the books kick butt. =]

Posted by fran on August 13, 2009 at 11:53 PM EDT #

kate! me and my friends are like really excited too see the show... we read all the books but... because we live in mexico me can see it! :( :(... Is there a way we can see it? please reply!! love your books :D

Posted by Ceci on August 14, 2009 at 12:44 AM EDT #

OMG i am so pisssed kate i am in love with your books and the epies are making me mad reed always did wat she was told n trailer park no its supposed to be glass licker and she wasnt supposed to get billings handed to her she was supposed to want it and i was really hoping to see natasha in this im so sad i was so excited to see but everytime ii see it i just get annoyed with it i love your books but the show does not match the book the only ones that go are thomas and kiran:/

Posted by Giggles on August 15, 2009 at 05:31 AM EDT #

and i agree 100% with jinefer.

Posted by alexxgraceee on August 16, 2009 at 02:56 PM EDT #

I think that the actress for Reed is perfect, same with Thomas. However, Kiran looks like a horse (not to be mean), Noelle is supposed to have dark hair, is she not? And Taylor is a good fit, but could be better. However, I absolutly LOVE the mini-series, and just want to know when it will be made longer! (Plus, the 'Trailer Park' over 'Glass-Licker' is really pissing me off!)

Posted by Katie on August 18, 2009 at 10:30 PM EDT #

yea me 2. Im a fan of that nickname! lol.
