WATCH THE SEASON PREMIERE!

The PRIVATE premiere has finally arrived…and my heart is beating so fast I think it's going to burst! It’s AMAZING. It's like watching PRIVATE come to life before my very eyes. The Billings Girls are stunning; Billings House is exactly as I imagined it, and Thomas and Josh are even hotter than I imagined! There's so much eye candy…you may find it hard to look away!

Billings Girls

Here in the U.S. are you watching along with me? Tell me something about the episode that surprised you. I, of course, have always envisioned Noelle as a brunette, but I still LOVE Samantha Cope in the role! How about you?

<3 Kate

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 11, 2009 at 12:45 PM EDT #

I hate Arianna and Kiran.

Posted by LOVE on August 11, 2009 at 12:46 PM EDT #

When will it be out for Canada?

Posted by Emily on August 11, 2009 at 12:47 PM EDT #

i like her too. she seems mean enough to be Noelle

Posted by Emily on August 11, 2009 at 12:47 PM EDT #

At first I was a little wary but this is amazing! I just can't wait for more episodes and I wish that they were longer:(:( oh well! I love taylor and noelle is still growing on me! I think it's just her height that is sorta holding me back but oh well! She'll be great, I trust you Kate! Oh and WOO! I lovvvvvvvvvve Josh and Thomas! Chord Overstreet is sooooo hot!! Ahh! Thanksss sooooo much!!!!!!!!

Posted by Ariana on August 11, 2009 at 12:48 PM EDT #

i loved it!!! cant wait tell the next 1!!!!

Posted by Sara on August 11, 2009 at 12:48 PM EDT #

Aw, I don't think that it's very fair to "hate" Ariana and Kiran!! They did such a great job! I think that you should just give it a little more of a chance. After all, it is only the first episode! And I can't wait for more!

Posted by Ariana on August 11, 2009 at 12:49 PM EDT #

i loved the first episode! it was amazing! i was really surprised when they said taylors last room mate diesd.but i think that ariana did it to make room for reed:] oh and are the episodes ever gonn abe on itunes,that would be AWESOME! :] SAMI:]

Hmm, something that suprised me? I guess that Noelle and the rest of the Billings Girls are acting like Cheyenne did in "Inner Circle". And I guess it's good but (Oh and don't get me wrong! I LOVE the show!) I wished that Reed had had to go through living in Bradwell first so that she could get a better understanding about what she had to loose if she had to leave Billings. I think that that would have made it really good, but the show rocks the way it is too! Oh and I was super shocked about the uniforms! In the books, the way each girl dressed really made Reed stand out more and contributed to her feeling as an outsider. With uniforms, it gives the girl's clothing a more stationary look and if Reed wears a uniform would make her fit in more, they were cute though! Can't wait for the next one!

Posted by Ariana on August 11, 2009 at 12:53 PM EDT #

Billings looks exactly how I pictured it! I'm kinda glad that the web series isn't exactly like the books. The series is amazing. Thanks!

Posted by Christina on August 11, 2009 at 12:55 PM EDT #

that was sooooo different from the books!!!!!!!!! i sorta liked it but it annoys me that how unlike the books and this is...seriously reed is already in billings and she doesnt kno natasha constance or any1 else!!! so im kinda disappointed

Posted by emma on August 11, 2009 at 12:55 PM EDT #

I loved the episode aswell. yeah, i'm with you Kate..i loved the setting. The Billings House is GOREGOUS! & i'm surprised they added Scott in. That was creative. Yeah, sure they skipped a few things..but hey, that's life. They only have so little time to cover. I love everyone so far. I love that they included the whole football thing with Thomas & Reed...it was awesome. Now, as long as they have the Legacy i'll be ok! :) lol. & it looked like Ariana already killed somebody..lol. jk (even though she probably did kill Leanne..you never know)

Posted by Kelly on August 11, 2009 at 12:55 PM EDT #

Well, "LOVE", I thin that you are being rather harsh and Kiran and Ariana are so beautiful! I honestly don't know why you are being so rude. If Natalie or Sanna reads this, I think that you two are amazing and I am so happy that you two were cast for the roles that you are in! You guys are soo great! I love the show and I can't wait to see more:)

Posted by Ariana on August 11, 2009 at 12:56 PM EDT #

Why is Taylor Reed's roommate? Natasha and her blackmailing were very important. Why did that girl die? Thomas' flirting was a lot better in the book.

Posted by Allie on August 11, 2009 at 12:57 PM EDT #

Wow! I loved it but, of course, I envisioned Noelle as brunette and Taylor a blonde. But no worries, Samantha and Tristan were ah-mazing!! I guess these can't be quite like your amazing books, since Reed moves straight into Billings and she rooms with Taylor and Taylor's last roommate DIED!!! That was unexpected!! I suppose that will make it all the more special ;] Can't wait for the next episode!! xoxo Blaire P.S. I wish each episode was longer!!! The suspense kills me when it's let than 10 minutes long!! haha x]

Posted by Blaire on August 11, 2009 at 12:58 PM EDT #

ariana, i totally agree with u!!! i wish she had to live in bradwell and go thro everything she went thro but w/e i still liked it!! natalie who plays arianna was good noelle and taylor, i luv u!!

Posted by julia on August 11, 2009 at 12:58 PM EDT #

i loved it! the only thing i disliked was how it wasn't true to the book. She doesn't move into billings right away, they don't say that taylor's roommate died (ariana is the only person mean enough to kill people.), and thomas didn't say that when he met her. Anyway, its good. I just wish that i forgot all about the book, so that it would be better for me.

Posted by Jillian on August 11, 2009 at 01:01 PM EDT #

I love the show, I am a little dissappointed that it doesn't follow the book exactly, but I understand that that might have been more expensive and take alot more time. I absolutely loved the thomas scene, he is HOT beyond words loved the boy meets girl song with it, it was perfect! I wish noelle had brown hair, but i'll deal, I thought samantha cope did an excellent job. I was a little surprised by taylors character because I thought she was supposed to be blonde but I guess the show wanted some diversity, I understand that. I hope that the rest of the episodes are just as good and that they throw a few more surprises in there (example: PUT MORE THOMAS IN THE SHOW! haha) But overall as I said before I LOVE LOVE LOVE the show, you should be proud kate!

Posted by madolyn on August 11, 2009 at 01:01 PM EDT #

Ahhhh I can't wait to watch it! Please Help out us Canadians! :) We LOVE YOU!

Posted by EmmaXxCanada on August 11, 2009 at 01:02 PM EDT #

That was amazing!!!! Thank You Kate!! I can watch it!! For some reason but I live outside of the U.S!!! THANK YOU!!!

Posted by Alice Cox on August 11, 2009 at 01:03 PM EDT #

I like it so far but the books dont even start out like that so this is going to be really weird to watch scince it doesnt start out like the book is constance not going to be in this????:) Jocelyn

Posted by Jocelyn on August 11, 2009 at 01:03 PM EDT #

this is so amazing. I can't wait for more...love all the billings girls and I have to say that i think ariana is beautiful and kiran looks just like i thought she would in the book. can't wait for more....thanks kate you are wonderful

Posted by Kathy on August 11, 2009 at 01:03 PM EDT #

Wow! I'm breathless. I'm so excited for the next episode! That was amazing. What's with the hatred towards Ariana and Kiran? Ariana is just flat out perfect. She's amazing. Kiran looks so pretty! Seriously. And Yea, I'm really surprised about the Taylor's room mate thing. Although I really don't like that they make it seem like Noelle was in on it. And I'm kindof dissapointed that Ariana is so mean to Reed right off the bat. I liked that she was like Reed's first "friend", and then.... you know. (Don't want to spoil it just in case....)

Posted by Lizzie on August 11, 2009 at 01:07 PM EDT #

That was pretty good! They left a lot out though. O well! Can't wait until tomorrow!

Posted by Justine on August 11, 2009 at 01:07 PM EDT #

im ariana and i dont like how my name is the name of a killer but it's just a book. okay something that surprised me was how reeds roommate was killed and not expelled for cheating. i mean WOW shoker didnt see that one comming! and Josh is HOT except that his hair is ugly. but other than that i am willing to give the series a chance. i think that the change in plot will make for surprises that will keep us guessing untill the end!

Posted by ariana on August 11, 2009 at 01:09 PM EDT #

That was amazing!!!! Thank You Kate!! I can watch it!! For some reason but I live outside of the U.S!!! THANK YOU!!! -Alice

Posted by Alice Cox on August 11, 2009 at 01:11 PM EDT #

It was great except it was a little shorter than i thought it would be, also it was way different from the books. I thought reed did get invited later on but first she was rooming in the other house. and someone died before reed got in? was that in the books? but it was good.

Posted by Meg on August 11, 2009 at 01:13 PM EDT #

omgosh i just watched it again and i hav to say i luv luv luv noelle(samantha) and taylor(tristin)and reed(kelsey)!!!!!!!! and i totally agree that i wish arianna was nicer to reed cuz yeah she is supposed to b reeds first billings "friend"

Posted by julia on August 11, 2009 at 01:13 PM EDT #

hey, i live in canada but i still watched it, it was SOOOO good but soo not long enough!!! press become a fan and then u can watch it on facebook :)

Posted by Allyssa on August 11, 2009 at 01:18 PM EDT #

omg omg ogm I SAW IT!!! the reason I am so freaked cuz I am from the UK i couldn't see it from the main web page but once i clicked in the right hand conner watch private episodes i could watch it!!! A bit different I love the whole easton twitter in the back ground I thought that was a REALLY good touch! taylor looks a hell of a lot different from what i thought but I love the way she talks! because she sounds more normal and small town-ish because she is in the books. Noelle look quite like how i thought she did, cuz i thought she was a blonde(at the start i got a bit confused with her and Anarina (can't spell her name sorry). Josh is quite cute you know. really good can't wait for MORE!

Posted by Anna on August 11, 2009 at 01:18 PM EDT #

That is so messed up. But at least they got th4e creepyness down.

Posted by Koko on August 11, 2009 at 01:20 PM EDT #

Ok when Noelle said "Spunky... I like it." I almost died laughing! Samantha is such a good actress!

Posted by Lila on August 11, 2009 at 01:20 PM EDT #

i have to agree that arianna should have caught reed talking to thomas so she could think "i wonder what would happen if she just.... dissapeared" (it said that in LAST CHRISTMAS). oh wow, i cant wait untill tomorrows show! thank you Kate!

Posted by ariana on August 11, 2009 at 01:20 PM EDT #

HOLY SNAP! It was amazing! Thanks Kate! I don't know about you girls, but all the girls are GORGEOUS. Who cares if they don't look like the book. The acting is all that matters!

Posted by Krissy on August 11, 2009 at 01:21 PM EDT #

Hmmm,, Whats with the uniforms?! And why is Reed already in Billings, Now she'll never meet constance or Missy or any of the other girls.. I loved loved loved the show.. But it just kinda through me off. And Taylors roomate died?! I wonder if they'll go in further depth of that. And I thought Kiran and Taylor were roomates anyways!

Posted by Lauren on August 11, 2009 at 01:23 PM EDT #

i actually liked the show i mean it is a lil different from the book but its awesomee it makes me want to watch more of it i thing i did not expect was that tyalors old roomate dead lol that was freaky and i think samantha cope is an awesome actress she plays noelle perfect too me <3 emilie

Posted by emilie on August 11, 2009 at 01:24 PM EDT #

OMIGOSH!!!! Kate you just keep surprising us!!! And totally live up to the expectations. That was fabulous I absolutely, positively LOVED IT!!! The characters are portrayed amazingly! Keep up the amazing work Kate! Thanks so much, <3 Allie

Posted by Allie on August 11, 2009 at 01:25 PM EDT #

It was ok, to be honest i was extremely dissapointed that it strayed soooo far from the book series. Hopefully it gets better... I am sure it will, it was cast extremely well so i cant wait for tomorrow.

Posted by Jenny on August 11, 2009 at 01:29 PM EDT #

Okay ! i loved it ! i was a little disappointed that the show was just totally different from the book so right now im kind of skeptical about what exactly will happen next.. i love every single character thomas is hot josh is alright .. reed and the girls are absolutely fab. though i wish noelle was a little taller but oh well arianna and her were outstanding. taylor i have to say is my favorite. i know a lot of ppl are disappointed that she is not a blonde but im not. no offese but im excited that atleast one of the billings girls is black. i didnt think kiran was going to be all that great but she was!!! i was very impressed !! thanks Kate ! <3 -jUXCALLME.CONNIE

Posted by Constance on August 11, 2009 at 01:31 PM EDT #

Its a little different than the book. But they cant make it exactly the same. You did a good job and I cant wait for the next episode! When it ended I was like "WHAT! No it can't end!"

Posted by lovedove on August 11, 2009 at 01:34 PM EDT #

I can't watch it. :(

Posted by Miriam on August 11, 2009 at 01:34 PM EDT #

Oh and I forget to say: in gossip girl the didn't make it just the the books the stuck to the base of the story but didn't follow it word for word or any thing- since it has the thing-ie-ba-bobie (amazed by my use of English yet?) of gossip girl I guess they did the same thing and i quote 'no one wants to see the exact same thing they read' and i quote that, so yer it probably why it not exactly the same.

Posted by Anna on August 11, 2009 at 01:38 PM EDT #

ok i finally got it to work:) i loved it! some people were saying they didnt but i did! i thot, yes, it was a lil dif from the books but thats to be expected! something that suprised me.....ummm maybe....."She died." !!!!!!!!!! and that creepy like falling off the roof thing ! it freaked me out but i want to know what happened!

Posted by erin on August 11, 2009 at 01:38 PM EDT #

Miram- You are lucky. It kind of sucked.

Posted by Koko on August 11, 2009 at 01:45 PM EDT #

it was so unlike the books! im trying not to make judgments because i know that happens when books go to a show so i'm just waiting to see what happens. and yeah, i pictured noelle way different. i kinda pictured her like how reed looks like in the show...

Posted by Jamie on August 11, 2009 at 01:45 PM EDT #

know that i think about it. yeah why where there uniforms? they dont have them in the books. and even in beautiful disaster ariana says they didnt have them and she wished they did. thats what i was surprised about. also tht someone died already?!

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 11, 2009 at 01:46 PM EDT #

stop being so rude natalie and sanna did an amazing job. they are wonderful actresses. and very pretty.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 11, 2009 at 01:48 PM EDT #

i like it, but i mean nothing can compare to the book. of course, samantha cope is so pretty, but i dont like how reed was just put in billings and how natasha's roomate 'died'. i feel like the book storylines are going out the window. and since when do they have uniforms.

Posted by Nicolette on August 11, 2009 at 01:50 PM EDT #

I just realized something in this they said she was a sophmore but wasnt she a freshman in the book? please correct me if im wrong?! im about to just go look in my books.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 11, 2009 at 01:54 PM EDT #

nope she was not a freshman and got offend when she was replaced by one

Posted by Anna on August 11, 2009 at 01:56 PM EDT #

I was soo excited for the web series! Josh Hollis was always my favorite in the books. He is wayyy hotter than i ever could have come up with in my head. And Thomas is gorgeous! Can not wait for the next one! <3

Posted by Vicki J. on August 11, 2009 at 01:56 PM EDT #

omg ! its finally here and it was ahmazing! i wish it was longer though, seven minutes wasnt enough! but all the characters were amazing but i pictured noelle to be different but i dont care cause samantha did amazing anyway and reed and thomas are exactly what i pictured them to be they were perfect for the role ! im still getting used to kiran but thats okay cause she did awesome too ! i loved every minute of it and cant wait for next episode! p.s. please make it longer ! pllleaasee

Posted by anonymous on August 11, 2009 at 01:57 PM EDT #

I just keep watching it over and over, but I can't watch the part where the girl dies, it's SO creepy, my gosh! No, she was a sophomore in the books, too. And ok, Thomas? HOTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTIE

Posted by Elle on August 11, 2009 at 01:57 PM EDT #

i dont like this at all. this is not how the book was wrote. :(

Posted by Jackie jenkins on August 11, 2009 at 01:59 PM EDT #

Oh and p.s., when do the episodes come out? Every day? Or Tuesdays and Thursdays?

Posted by Elle on August 11, 2009 at 01:59 PM EDT #

nevermind i just read in the first book she was a sophmore its just tht i think in revelation she was like they cant have amberly in billings shes a sophmore and they where like so you were a freshman but i just think i got it mixed up in my head and reed is a sophmore and amberly was the freshman.

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 11, 2009 at 01:59 PM EDT #

that show totally rocks

Posted by Kimberly on August 11, 2009 at 02:00 PM EDT #

exactly thank you =]

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 11, 2009 at 02:00 PM EDT #

ok so one thing i never imagined was that reed was just placed into billings...she earned her spot

Posted by Stephanie on August 11, 2009 at 02:01 PM EDT #

the episodes come out every tuesday wednesday and thursday

Posted by RenaeKaitlin on August 11, 2009 at 02:01 PM EDT #

When will we be able to watch it in Canada? :'(

Posted by Natasha White on August 11, 2009 at 02:01 PM EDT #

I was very excited for the web series. I kind of imagined billings being bigger and more expensive looking, but that is just me. I also kinda wished that Reed had to go through Bradwell like she did in the book, but i still loved it! I did imagine Noelle being a brunnete.. but i liked her anyways. I was kind of disapointed about Kiran and Ariana. I imagined Ariana as a more blue eyed, blonde beauty. But I LOVED the episode and I can't wait for the rest!

Posted by sam on August 11, 2009 at 02:03 PM EDT #

definetly not whgat i expected. i wish reed would have lived in bradwell first,but w.e. and why do they gave to wear uniforms!?!?!? the books are wihout a doubt 10000000000 times better than the series but overall it was goood. definetly some unexpected twist.

Posted by kirstin on August 11, 2009 at 02:07 PM EDT #

I really liked the first episode but like many others, I was disappointed how it didn't exactly follow the books. One of the best parts of the PRIVATE series is Reed getting into Billings! I wish Noelle was a brunette. I can't wait until the next show!!!

Posted by Natalie on August 11, 2009 at 02:07 PM EDT #

WHEN WILL IT BE AVAILABLE IN CANADA!? :(

Posted by sydney on August 11, 2009 at 02:08 PM EDT #

Wow that was intense haha! I wish the episodes were longer like 15 minutes or even just 10. Anyway it was still great. I did envision Noelle as a brunette but I still loved Samamntha Cope. She did an amazing job!!! Keep up the good work I can't wait until the next episode!

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

whoaa, its even better without all the freezing! :D i love the little 'roommate died' twist. since you couldnt fit the other interesting parts in, it was clever to add that. :) now, when i watch it though, i scoot away from the computer. it gives me the chills. lol

Posted by Emily on August 11, 2009 at 02:14 PM EDT #

+btw, dont listen to LOVE. it was amazingg. :)

Posted by Emily on August 11, 2009 at 02:18 PM EDT #

uhm that was way DIFFERENT from the book... it would have been better if she started at bradwell where she would see the billings girls through her window... hence, the "glass licker". and football? i thought it was a soccer ball. josh somewhat freaks me out, thomas's voice is awkward, the dissimilarities of the girls’ heights bugs me, the girls has no chemistry… the only thing I like about the pilot so far is Kelly Sanders’s acting. She’s the only one I see who’s comfortable on her role. The actors can do better but then again it’s only pilot so they’re still getting familiarize with they’re characters. And what’s up with the uniforms? And Noelle being blonde? And Kiran too tall, it’s distracting? I’m sorry I whine too much. I just love the book so much.

Posted by audrey on August 11, 2009 at 02:19 PM EDT #

I dont like the person who is playin Kiran at all. and i find it strange that they put reed in billings house at the beginning! one of the parts us how she gets in to the house. But so far i like it! alot

Posted by Payton on August 11, 2009 at 02:20 PM EDT #

PLEASEEE I WANT!! NOOO!!! I NEED!!!! TOO SEE THE EPISODIES AND I CAN´T BECAUSE I LIVEEE IN MEXICOOO PLEASE KATE MAKE IT AVAILABLE IN MEXICOOOO!!!! PLEASEE!!! PLEASEE!!! PLEASEEE!!! PLEASEEE!!! PLEASEEE!!! PLEASEEE!!! PLEASEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted by mexicans on August 11, 2009 at 02:22 PM EDT #

i liked it! it was pretty good, considering that its a book series being made into a show. a lot of people have expectations and i know you can't live up to all of them. the acting was really good nonetheless :) the only thing i didn't like was how reed was just placed in billings. i mean she earned her spot, thats what makes her reed. and aren't noelle and ariana supposed to like her? i mean it was their idea to put her in billings anyway. well, at least noelle wanted her in haha overall though it was pretty good. can't wait for tomorrow's episode!!

Posted by kathleen on August 11, 2009 at 02:24 PM EDT #

WHEN WILL IT BE ABAILABLE IN MEXICOO????? :(

Posted by MARYCRUZ on August 11, 2009 at 02:25 PM EDT #

Wicked fine; it's bit better than the book; seen it's just...different.

Posted by Dannelle on August 11, 2009 at 02:29 PM EDT #

wow ! so hey everyone in canada if you cant watch it on this site go to www.teen.com/private and the episode is right there!! so it was tottally different but i think its gonna be AWSOME!! josh and thomas are so hot! and i really like the girl that plays noelle , even though i always thought of her as a brunette shes amazing! i dont like Kiran , and arinna kinda bugs me. but taylor should be blonde but i love the actress! and i just love reed! shes amazing! im sooooo excited!!and billings ...is soooo PERFECT!!! love it!

Posted by lilly on August 11, 2009 at 02:29 PM EDT #

yeah, i went on that website, but i still cant watch it :(

Posted by Christine on August 11, 2009 at 02:35 PM EDT #

OMG this was amazing...I loved it!!! It was weird how Reed was just in Billings. And how Taylors roomante died...I have a thoery about that!!! I think maybe they got invovled with Thomas too and Ariana struck!!! I cant wait for tomorrow. I love it!

Posted by Karyn on August 11, 2009 at 02:36 PM EDT #

I love love loved the episode... i was surprised when they said that taylors roommate had died... I cant wait for the next episode!!!

Posted by Catherine on August 11, 2009 at 02:37 PM EDT #

omg!!!!! that was awesome!!!!! i love the episode but i didnt know that taylors roommate died! i wonder how???

Posted by lulu on August 11, 2009 at 02:38 PM EDT #

I wish it was longer, idk about Kiran though, sanna did a horrible job, the way she talked and everything. Noelle doesn't look like an alpha, or that type of person that u look at and she'd scream: RESPECT; like she did in the novel. Reed? i don't know,pretty but doesn't portray her character. The guys are hot. But overall?? *I'D RATHER READ THE BOOK. CAN'T WAIT FOR SUSCPISION. GOOD JOB KATE! THX

Posted by Melissa on August 11, 2009 at 02:39 PM EDT #

i always though taylor was a blonde with curly hair. but i still love the actress!

Posted by adrianna on August 11, 2009 at 02:41 PM EDT #

this first episode was absolutely amazinggg! i think the actors and actresses are all picked out perfectly. the guys are hot ;) and the girls are all so gorgeouss. i dont remember the whole "taylors roomate died" incident though...was that in the book? and when does the next episode come out again? great job! :D

Posted by Amy S. on August 11, 2009 at 02:46 PM EDT #

ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh so freaking good. i like samantha cope i mean these arent our characters from the books and the covers but they are really good and they will def make the show great. reed is good too, i was worried about her most but she did fine. taylor is cute ha! but i dont like sanna as kiran i like nicole. ariana is by far the best. and color me intrigued with the whole plot change very nice. its like gossip girl, completely different from the books and still incredible. BTW I CANNOT WAIT FOR SUSPICION. <3

Posted by Kelly j. on August 11, 2009 at 02:49 PM EDT #

omg the girl that plays reed is gorgeous. but i thought reed was supposed to look more plain. im not really sure about how she was "forced" into billings but who cares, what i want to know is if Arianna is still going to be crazy. did she kill the billings girl? i mean in the book she did try and push reed of the roof. Thomas is sooo freaking hot. lol Personally i think its to early to start judging the billings girls so well see... anyway i hope these episodes get longer.

Posted by Amanda on August 11, 2009 at 02:50 PM EDT #

I am sorry to say I'm not going to watch the other episodes. I was so disappointed. Noelle: she looks like a cheerleader, its like an older version of Amberly :/ she LAUGHS at girls like that. Ariana: She was okay. Why didnt she have those blue eyes? Shes supposed to be PAINFULLY beautiful. Kiran: I think Nicole should have one. Taylor: Taylor is supposed to be a little blonde cherub. Reed: I like her. Thats all I like Billings: Its supposed to be MODERN and BIG. Since when is Reed assigned? That. is. sooo. wrong! I dont even think I'm watching the rest of the episodes -_-

Posted by MiniAmberly on August 11, 2009 at 02:54 PM EDT #

Oh and the scene when Taylor's roommate falls out the window? I almost laughed. I'm sorry, it looked so fake, though.

Posted by MiniAmberly on August 11, 2009 at 02:55 PM EDT #

OMG KAAAATTTTEEEEE!!! unbelievable! i think i'm gonna cry!!! BECAUSE I CAN'T WATCH IT!!! Please please please please please let it be available for Canada. pleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleasepleaseplease please!!

Posted by Julie on August 11, 2009 at 02:55 PM EDT #

BTW i love love love love love a million times how noelle has the kelly bag in it. i almost died!! i wish i had it too! ahhh

I really didn't like it. Reed never got to meet Constance or Missy.....So how is she going to meet them..... I also don't like the whole uniform thing and that Taylor's roomate died...Also, now Reed doesn't have to prove herself to get into Billings because she already is in it..... I wish they could of followed the books more!! :(

Posted by Sydnee on August 11, 2009 at 02:58 PM EDT #

i think your going to do what they had the girls in inner circle do. shes already in the house but they have the power to get her out, so she has to prove that shes worthy of billings by doing the tasks she did in the book :) sounds good to me. lol

Posted by Emily on August 11, 2009 at 03:06 PM EDT #

i like how its different then the books thoughh. :) it makes it more exciting and surprising. lol

Posted by Emily on August 11, 2009 at 03:09 PM EDT #

A lot of people probably already said this but: Taylor as Reed's roommate? SaayyWhat? Natasha? And they didn't just put Reed into Billings. Ariana and Noelle like fought for her to be there. I'm not sure how I feel about this :/

Posted by Kassie on August 11, 2009 at 03:10 PM EDT #

same! josh was my fave! i fell in love with him! only in my head he was cute but like little kid cute yet hot at the same time! LOVED IT AND CANNOT STOP WATCHING!

Posted by Anna on August 11, 2009 at 03:12 PM EDT #

I loved it so much! OMG i'm so exited! I won the go green contest and i'm freaking out so much! I love the series so much and so far the episodes are really great! I just wish the episodes were longer! :(

Posted by Megan Magill on August 11, 2009 at 03:13 PM EDT #

i love how everyone is making judgments so soon. newsflash! it's the first episode so like someone said there're probably warming up to there roles you'll need to calm down i agree with Kate i always imagined Noelle brunette but i really like Samantha and Sanna did a great job! i think you guys need to just wait and not be so cruel on the first episode! and i love Kelsey and Natalie they really know there're role! Can't wait to watch the rest

Posted by ashley on August 11, 2009 at 03:15 PM EDT #

If it wasn't supposed to be based off of the private series I would like it. The acting is good and everything, but it's not like the book at all. Everything is different about it. No one dies before Reed moves it. That was weird. Leanne "cheats" on a test so that's how she got kicked out of Billings/Easton. It wasn't enough like the book for me to really enjoy it. If it was its own series, then I'd like it. But they don't live up to Kate Brian's books, which is what I was afraid of. Oh well. I still love the books and I'm still going to watch the whole series anyway. So, whatever. =]

Posted by Fran on August 11, 2009 at 03:18 PM EDT #

ive watched the episode over and over again and i love it. but i just noticed that josh's character actually dresses clean. in the book his clothes were always torn and had paint stains.

Posted by genelle on August 11, 2009 at 03:20 PM EDT #

Just wondering, Kate, but are you ever going to explain how Noelle got the scar above her hip bone? And the relationship between Sabine and Ariana? Obviously I'll need to keep reading to find out everything that happens, but they're just questions that are really bothering me that I hope you explain at some point in the series. =]

Posted by Fran on August 11, 2009 at 03:24 PM EDT #

Well, I think the show was good! It's just not exactly as how the book went. I agree with one of the girls that commented in the beginning: The Billings Girls are acting like Cheyenne did in Inner Circle (like how they said that Reed would have to request a transfer herself). Oh My Gosh, BRANT DAUGHERTY IS ONE OF THE HAWTEST MALE SPECIMEN I HAVE EVER SEEN! His eyes are amazing :) And Chord Overstreet is a cutie as well. He's wardrobe could use a little work though in the first episode though lol. But yeah I think the Billings Girls were great. And Samantha Cope was great for the role of Noelle! I think she can pull it off. And Natalie Floyd seems like a great Ariana. Overall, I thought it was really interesting. But kinda weird that Taylor's old room mate died... ? Hmm, I wonder who it is! I wish the episodes were not seven minutes though. :( LONGER!

Posted by Jessica on August 11, 2009 at 03:28 PM EDT #

Loved it! It's got a different plot kind of, but it's still good. Can't wait for the next episode tomorrow.

Posted by alyssa on August 11, 2009 at 03:28 PM EDT #

I agree 100% with fran.... i didn't really like it because it didn't match with the actual book plot. BUT if it were a series in itself, it would be enjoyable. It just sucks, because we're all watching it hoping to see the book come alive, and unfortunately that won't happen. But it's ok, it's always like this with book adaptations. The books are always better, so please kate, keep writing them.... :D

Posted by Amanda S. on August 11, 2009 at 03:33 PM EDT #

totally agree with you fran! that question about noelle has been bothering me since day one! haha but in a good way. and i think ariana and sabine may have been half sisters or step? not sure though...just guessing :)

Posted by kathleen on August 11, 2009 at 03:33 PM EDT #

Hey Kate!!! I love the Private series so much, but unfortunately I am not able to watch them due to the fact that I live in Canada, so can you please tell me when everyone here in Canada can start to watch the episodes (we have a an club dedicated to you on http://community.indigo.ca/posts/Fans-of-Kate-Brian/group-1944/current.html ) Thanks so much and we can't wait for Suspicion

I didn't really like it. I was disappointed.

UMMM people who are outside US (including me) I don't know where you guys were watching the webseries, but I just went on Teen.com (this is where I was watching the webseries) it wouldn't allow me to watch the episode so..... people who are outside of the US we are going to have to wait for Kate to fix it!!! Sorry to break any bad news!!!

Posted by Alice Cox on August 11, 2009 at 03:40 PM EDT #

I liked it, but the only thing was that it didnt follow the book really well and Noelle is not how i imagined her but I guess it will be something different

Posted by tapdiva on August 11, 2009 at 03:47 PM EDT #

yer same i agree with fran as well i think they where sisters. as well the whole scar thing (which would be why in paradise lost Noelle the only other person to not be in a bikini). but i also think that there was something else that was a lose end but i can't quite remember what... which is totally buggin' (don't blame me blame the movie clueless...) and also yer josh was wearing a perfectly pressed Ralph Lauren polo tucked into to-again perfectly pressed kinda nerdy but look to expesinse to be that nerdy pair of trousers(if you hadn't guessed I am a brit) when he was meant to have paint stains and sometimes ripped clothes, also in the back he had to much gel in but you only get a glisp of that. still from the front he was cute-but remind of Nate in gossip girl in the first one cuz to me the aged considerably in one episode. but over all great!

Posted by Anna on August 11, 2009 at 03:56 PM EDT #

I liked it...but it was wayyy different from the book. Taylor's roomate dying? Reed being put into Billing? But whatev...I liked it :) I just wish it was longer than 8 minutes

Posted by Jordan on August 11, 2009 at 03:56 PM EDT #

and josh and thomas where both checking her out like twice at the same tiem which i found cute

my dream private cast (yes, its mostly gossip girl stars, but what can i say?) Reed- miley cyrus or Kristen Stewart Noelle- Leighton Meester Ariana- Blake Lively Taylor- Taylor Momsen (fit the description perfectly) Kiran- Selena Gomez Dash- Chase Crawford Thomas- Penn Badgley Cheyenne- Megan Park Twin Cities- Ashley tisdale & Brenda Song Gage- Jason Earles/ Ed westwick I think thats it... :) The premiere of Private was okay, but I didn't like that Reed was already in Billings and that Thomas was creepy when he spoke. :(( & I thought it was interesting how they had Taylor's former room mate die... my opinion

Posted by Anastasia Lillpopp on August 11, 2009 at 04:15 PM EDT #

where is constance?! lol

Posted by Mariahh on August 11, 2009 at 04:20 PM EDT #

Well of course it is deferent than the book, and how we all imagined it, but I thought it was pretty good. They skipped a lot by just letting Reed in Billings..but oh well. I LOVE the character who plays Noelle..she is so good..the best. And same with Kelsey..she is really good at potraying Reed. Thomas is a babe..not how I pictured Josh..but it was still good:) I'm so happy that the show is finally here!

Okay I am sick and tired of reading that the actors aren't how you imagined them everyone!! Everyone is DIFFERENT!!!At least there is a show!! And they are trying their best to please us!! Can we all just move on!! Thank you Kate for the show!! THank you for trying to let people outside of the U.s able to watch it!!!

Posted by Alice Cox on August 11, 2009 at 04:23 PM EDT #

for the people out side the US it is available on teen.com TV, i live in Canada and i can watch it there. I loved the web show i thought the Tomas and reed part was good, but everything else is different, but it was still good, can't wait to watch the next one.

i really wish it was an hour long show like gossip girl. that way it could be closer to the book. i have to say i was slightly disappointed. the book's sorta different, but i love love love noelle and arianna. they are perfect.

Posted by Nikki Lee on August 11, 2009 at 04:38 PM EDT #

Okay...to start off I love the series so far! What surprised me the most was the fact that Reed didn't go through the whole Bradwell experience. Another thing that surpirsed was the uniforms. I noticed it in the trailer but it still surprised me. I love it though. Billings house is fabulous A+! I love all the actors. A+! Sanna looks amazing! i can't wait for the next episode!!!!! -Desi

Posted by Desi on August 11, 2009 at 04:38 PM EDT #

i think that the 1st show was great!i know that a lot of people are disappointed because it doesnt follow the book excactly,but thats what makes the show better because you dont know whats coming, so it keeps you anticipating what will happen next. i was a little skeptical at first with the actors but now that i see their acting im really impressed! it was really surprising to hear that taylor's old roommate died, and i imagined Easton to be fancier, but im not that shocked because i know that the books will always be a hundred times better!! dont get me wrong though i love the show. some people are confusing the creators of the shows though. kate brian wrote the books, and different people wrote the show, so please dont go blaming kate brian for all the things that dont go the way you want them to. it would have been better if reed got to see that scene from bradwell where shes looking in at billings, so she could see how much more special billings is and what she has to lose. in my opinion, thomas is very hot and josh is extremely cute! reed is very talented and beautiful, im so glad she gets to play reed. ok peace out, cant wait 2 see the more!!!!

Posted by kimmy on August 11, 2009 at 04:38 PM EDT #

Kate, please please please can you make the webisode available outside the US? I know lots of others probably already said this but maybe the more people that say it will convince teen.com tv to make it available outside the US. I'm from Ireland and I am obsessed with the Private series, I order the American editions off Amazon before they are available here ( and they are putting new covers on them in Ireland and the UK. They're horrible so I'm really happy I bought them ages ago in nicer covers :-) ) So I would be really, really glad if you made the webisode available outside the US. Please!

Posted by Nonie on August 11, 2009 at 04:43 PM EDT #

im getting really mad now! its commpleting annoying that we cant watch the series cause were not american its not fair and its making me angry honestly fix it soon cause i know alot of people who wanna watch this and they cant and now there all mad and stuff ITS REALLY ANNOYING!!!!

I thought Thomas was amazing! He is such a great actor! Liked the leather jacket too.haha. *Caitey*

Posted by Caitey Mechley on August 11, 2009 at 04:49 PM EDT #

im kinda dissapointed about the way they changed the storyline and the fact that they wear uniform but other than that i like the webseries

Posted by Sola on August 11, 2009 at 04:49 PM EDT #

OMIGOSH! Samantha Cope is the best Noelle I could have imagined. Ariana is exactly how I imagined her, Taylor is sooooo sweet you can't help but love her, and Kiran is so accurate. The thing that suprised me though is how is you didn't meet Kiki, Missy, Lorna, Dash, or Constance. But I guess thats how it is with only 7 min. :) I absolutley LOVE this show and book!

Posted by Becs on August 11, 2009 at 04:49 PM EDT #

honestly, it was dissapointing.... 1) it's NOTHING like the book 2) it's only SEVEN minutes long... 3) I live in NY and my computer doesn't show it so I had to go over a friend's to watch it.

Posted by <3 on August 11, 2009 at 04:50 PM EDT #

so good...love, love it and if you ever see a movie that is made from a book, yo will see that they don't follow the storyline completely..makes it more interesting. Noelle bugs me with the way she is always bobbing her head.

Posted by Kathy on August 11, 2009 at 04:53 PM EDT #

i loved the first episode, but it went by very quickly. i almost thought it was a commercial for it for a moment. I hope the regular episodes are at least 20 minutes each. is there going to be another episode tomorrow???

Posted by tyra on August 11, 2009 at 05:28 PM EDT #

speech-less ; i loveeee the show ! i pictured Noelle as a brunette but she seems like her height isn't exactly right.... I wish that it would of been mor of the beginning of the novel(how Reed goes to Bradwell.) Right now I don't think she really understands what Billings is.... but the girl who died !!! whoa, drama and suspense already & the day has just begum.... i loveeee it =]

Posted by cantrell on August 11, 2009 at 05:40 PM EDT #

everyone in the show is rlly hot, but they totally overact. the campus looks perfect, but they REALLY changed a lot of the story. almost the whole first book is about reed getting INTO billings. it seems like noelle (who would've seemed better as a brunette, by the way) was also a mix of cheyanne, and that this first episode of the series in mimicking "inner circle." a lot of things in the whole series will need 2 change to fit with the new plot. overall, ok.

Posted by charlotte Moore on August 11, 2009 at 05:45 PM EDT #

I'm really disappointed how unlike the book it is. I was so surprised when i saw uniforms and when Reed said she lived in Billings. I didn't like this episode at all but I understand its only based on the books and there are only so many episodes so I'm really excited to see more!!!

Posted by annabelle on August 11, 2009 at 05:46 PM EDT #

i wish that the show was more like the book. like reed living in bradwell and everything but i still loved it! cant wait til the other episodes =)

Posted by Nicole on August 11, 2009 at 05:49 PM EDT #

ughhh! so i think all the actors did good (besides kiran i really think nicole wouldve been 100 times better) especially reed and noelle and thomas. but the whole story is wrong! they dont wear uniforms. leanne didnt die. and REED WAS NOT PUT INTO THE HOUSE SHE EARNED IT!!

Posted by Lauren on August 11, 2009 at 05:49 PM EDT #

um... i dont like it at all. bad script and horrid acting... the script was really rushed and awkward... as if they tried to hard. this is definetely not the best they could do.... have they seen how theyve transformed gossip girl from boring book to awesum series? how did they manage to change an awesum book to awful series? it was really bad, sanna wasnt good and the story was to altered to really be private. i mean in the book ariana spies on reed with thomas thats why the rules were broken....now its like all the traditional of billings is useless.... and the characters don't look anything like the real billings and private students. really bad. 1 and a half out of five.

Posted by privatefanatic on August 11, 2009 at 05:53 PM EDT #

The point of us protesting was to get a PRIVATE webseries, not for some writers to totally misinterpret our books and turn them into this horrid mess. the least that couldve been done is the characters match the real easton students. inner circle is totally undermined because reed just walked into billings. in the book ariana helped her get in because of thomas. and leanne dying? what about natasha's backmail and at the legacy them telling her they needed to trust her? this is not private, this is a webseries of the same name. i will not insult the actors looks becuase its unnecessary, however, the script was awful and quite corny, and the actors weren't very good. and you can jusge based on a couple of lines because that shows skill... it was really awful. what happened to all billings stands for?

Posted by cher on August 11, 2009 at 06:00 PM EDT #

AT LEAST THEIR IS A FLIPPIN WEBSERIES!!!!

Posted by Alice Cox on August 11, 2009 at 06:02 PM EDT #

I agree with fran who commented a lot earlier. she basically said this isnt like private. if it was another series i would probably like it. it differs from private on so many things i dont know how theyre going to make half the stuff work like especially the stuff about arianna turning on reed because right now theyve already skipped through all the stuff like how she was basically the one to get reed into billings. hopefully it improves because im still going to watch it since im a die hard private fan but its not even close to how good i thought it was going to be. CANT WAIT FOR SUSPICION! im deff buying it the day it come outt

Posted by Lauren on August 11, 2009 at 06:03 PM EDT #

alice, some people are being rude to the actors, but just because they don't like it doesnt mean we cant share our opinons, if you love it you can, so why cant we if we dont like it. everyone has their opinion and everyone should be honest. and if you dont want to read commments, stop reading them, but dont try to force people to keep their opinions to themselves, its not very fair. for me the series wasnt the best they could do, the bidget has nothing to do with it, they culdve had a much better script, and cast people who looked like the book character, for all we know this could be another book series with the same names. and it SHOULD go how the book goes, becuase each book leads into the other. not verry good.

Posted by cher on August 11, 2009 at 06:07 PM EDT #

hate the fact that mexicans can´t watch it , i mean me and my frinds have read all of them so we were expecting to watch it sooo... PLEASE MAKE SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!!! wlove mexican

Posted by mexican on August 11, 2009 at 06:09 PM EDT #

Yeah but what happens if the actors look at our criticism(or KAte)!!! Think about how they would feel!!! They would feel upset about our comments! I am just trying to think about peoples feelings!! I don't care if no one likes the webseries but you guys should stop criticizing!! You don't have to listen to me Though!!

Posted by Alice Cox on August 11, 2009 at 06:10 PM EDT #

WE PROTESTED FOR A PRIVATE SERIES LIKE THE BOOKS NOT THIS! SO NO ALICE NO "AT LEAST WE GOT A WEBSERIES" BECAUSE WE DIDNT, WE GOT THIS... NOT VERY GOOD AT ALL.

Posted by cher on August 11, 2009 at 06:10 PM EDT #

I for one am NOT happy with the webshow. I was soooo happy when i heard they were making one and I HATE when they change the book in movies. If you're gonna make a book a movie, make it right or don't make it at all. First, the billings girls are ALL WRONG!! I pictured ariannaa with longer hair and lighter. bigger blue eyes. Kiran is just all wrong all together. SANNA SHOULD NOT HAVE WON!! NICOLE SHOULD HAVE!! I pictured Kiran with the color hair Reed has, Reed and Noelle a bruntte, and Taylor a blonde. And what happened to Reed rooming with Natasha and meeting Constance? Come on people. Don't make it like My Sisters Keeper where the movie made me want to sue somebody.

Posted by Not Happy on August 11, 2009 at 06:12 PM EDT #

criticism is a part of it all. they made it for the fans, so let the fans respond. people will always have something bad to say, and what were saying isnt necessarily bad, its honest. plain and simple. and what if they look at it? they can see our dissapointment. not what we were looking for. but i am thankful they TRIED.

Posted by cher on August 11, 2009 at 06:13 PM EDT #

We should wait and see what happens tomorrow or how the other ones turn out maybe we will be surprised!!

it was hard for me t finish watching it... i didnt want this crap popping in my head verytime i read the book..definetely not these actors. reed= nina dobrev noelle= megan fox ariana= aneleigh from americas next top model cycl 11 i think josh= brian from stereo skyline kiran= claire fom my wife and kids taylor= taylor swift dash=chace crawford gaga=peter from degrassi those are my characters...

Ok so I think it was stupid that all the billings girls where wearing those ugly school uniforms where everyone around them had normal clothes on. So much for fashion!

Posted by Rebecca on August 11, 2009 at 06:22 PM EDT #

wait no cell phones... ok, so i guess reed never goes on the roof to use natashas celll phone... becuase any other regular person would just stroll up there for no reason when your leaving with kidnappers. i mean if not because she used natashas phone, then why? and no constance, guess walt whit will be all alone. and no noelle telling ari off on the roof becuase theres no keep your enemies closer... also no secret message in ari's laptop becuase they didnt get leanne kicked out. and reed will never know ntatshas a lesbo because theres no leanne...wtf? you may say, theres still ways to make it work... well anyother ways will be quite stupid and crazy. and easton on twitter? doesnt noelle look down on social networks as said on a blog once? hm...

Posted by Kathy on August 11, 2009 at 06:36 PM EDT #

It was pretty good i think. I wish that Reed could have lived in Bradwell first. I mean, how is Noelle going to start calling her "glass-licker"? I liked the characters though!

Posted by Morgan on August 11, 2009 at 06:37 PM EDT #

i loved the show, but i was very dissapointed that it was nothing like the book. In the books it seemed like Reed knew that she wasn't at the same level the billings girls were and noelle wasn't as mean to her. And it was unexpecting that taylor's roomate had died. Is dash not in the show? because i loved his character and i don't want him to be missing. But i can't wait for more!

Posted by ashley on August 11, 2009 at 06:40 PM EDT #

ahh i didnt like it very much noelle was way more amberly than noelle... noelles supposed to be chilled and shes supposed to be tapped in with everyhting but she asks her friends for the dish on reed... and kiran wasnt like... idk short enough i guess... taylor was supposed to have blonde hair... ariana, although, seemed perfect to me.... the only flaw in her was she was supposed to have a southern accent... reed was absolutely PERF!!!! josh was, well, not as handsome as i wanted him to be.... but thomas was more handsome than i thuoght hed be!! btw, when is it airing on tv???

OMG!! That was an AWESOME epie!! There are some changes in the show; some major, some not. All in all, it was an awesome epie! Can't wait for tomorrow to see epie 2! I'm disagreeing with the people who think that Thomas didn't act good; he was awesome! They made it obvious that he liked Reed (love at first sight!) I liked Noelle. It's tough love for Reed, I guess! When that girl died, I was like "Woah". I thought it was cool how Reed and Scott keep in touch through the computer. I always thought that Ariana was the first one to be nice to her. What's up with that? I thought that Thomas went too early saying that he thought Reed was special. They just met, for crying out loud! Sorry for the heavy critisism. I just hope they take our comments seriously! ~Janie~ PS: I thought that the song "Boy Meets Girl" by Evan was perfect for that moment! I'm so into the books that the song and the moment that I was so touched that it went straight to my heart! ?

Posted by Janie on August 11, 2009 at 06:56 PM EDT #

The episode was good but it didn't follow the book at all. First Reed does get invited to Billings. She wasn't put on Billings. Also Taylor and Kiran room together and Taylor's last roommate did not die. Also Easton did not wear uniforms. But i did like the episode. It was really good, it just didn't follow the book very well. The actors and actresses did a great job also.

Amazing! I'm so stoked to see all of these! Samantha has yet to grow on me... but I think by the end of all of this she will.

i lovedd it! xD

Posted by sam on August 11, 2009 at 07:00 PM EDT #

I loved it I am just wondering how Constance will come into the show

Posted by Leah on August 11, 2009 at 07:02 PM EDT #

I also forgot in the post a posted right above this one. Natasha is Reed's roommate. How is she supposed to blackmail Reed if their not in the same room. Reed was supposed to be in Bradwell at first and room with Constance.

Posted by Kylie Jo on August 11, 2009 at 07:04 PM EDT #

its a little different from the books but i think its gonna b good lol nd thomas nd josh r hottttt!! haha

Posted by jennie on August 11, 2009 at 07:06 PM EDT #

ok im srry but that part after noelle says "she died" is hilarious! i mean it looked so fake but funny i kept pausing it. i like the series tho it was really good and i cant wait for tomorrows epie!! ps lovelovelove the characters!! pps thomas is hot but that scene was very corny unlike the one in the book. o well i can tell this series will be a winner

Posted by Katie on August 11, 2009 at 07:14 PM EDT #

It is definitely going to be different then the books but I don't know if it will be better then the books

Posted by Leah on August 11, 2009 at 07:16 PM EDT #

I CANT WATCH IT! BECAUSE IM NOT IN THE BLOODY US! THIS SO SUCKS! I'VE BEEN LOOKING FORWARD TO THIS SINCE I HEARD ABOUT THE AUDITIONS! AND NOW I CANT EVEN WATCH ITTT. AHHHHH, TODAY IS SO NOT MY DAY :'(

Posted by monica on August 11, 2009 at 07:22 PM EDT #

It was great! Tyra's right about the comments, start your own web series if you don't like it!:-) Loved it Kate and crew! Can't wait for more... And people outside the US, chill! Kate's working on it! -Kendal

Posted by Kendal on August 11, 2009 at 07:28 PM EDT #

I cant watch it :( i live in canada? when will i get to watch it? so jelous. love these boooks! kaitlyn.mccormick@gmail.com

Posted by Kaiiiity on August 11, 2009 at 07:31 PM EDT #

wait, wouldnt noelle have the disk? which would mean she already knew almost everything about reed. why would she ask taylor and them then? oh well, still like it. :)

Posted by Emily on August 11, 2009 at 07:34 PM EDT #

Love the way Josh looked at Reed:) Thomas is a cutie!

Posted by Alyssa on August 11, 2009 at 07:34 PM EDT #

I liked the series, but I was kinda disappointed. First off, I had imagined Billings differently. Second, doesn't Reed live in Bradwell first? Third, we missed the confrontation between Noelle && Reed in the caf for being a "glass licker". Fourth, Reed didn't meet Constance. Fifth, Taylor's roommate doesn't die in the book! And finally, I sorta imagined the Thomas and Reed scene different. But I sorta liked it. Hopefully it'll get better though.

Posted by Maria on August 11, 2009 at 07:35 PM EDT #

umm hello what about canada??/ itd be realllyyy nicee cus id really loveto watch it PLEASE make it available for canada... PLEASE PLEASE PLEASEEEEEE!!!! love aly

Posted by aly on August 11, 2009 at 07:40 PM EDT #

Aly if you have a acebook join kate's page. You can watch it from there.

Posted by tyra on August 11, 2009 at 07:42 PM EDT #

honestly, im kinda disappointed. The show really isnt anything like the books. I really expected the show to portray the books more. Some of the characters i feel were pretty dead on (like Reed looks like who i'd imagined she would and so does Thomas) but other than that, im a little disappointed with the cast. Noelle is beautiful, but i envisioned her as more of a brunnette. I also feel that the epies are way to short! only 7 minutes? like what is that! but i dont mean to bash it all.. i am excited for the web series. And it does look promising that it'll be good. I just really hope it gets better and follows the book more. oh and btw, is it just me or is anyone wondering whatever happened to Dash's character?? is he not going to be in the series?

Posted by rachel on August 11, 2009 at 07:44 PM EDT #

ok...on the last blog someone said that Leanne was Taylors rommate at first, then got kicked out.(in the books) Well she wasn't. Leanne was romates with Natasha! Then read moved in with Natasha after Leanne left. Remember? Noelle and Ariana set her up(Leanne) to make it look like she cheated. O and about the uniforms... they probably have them because it is probably a lot of money to supply the whole cast with a designer wordrobe. Overall I thought the webseries was Ok. It didn't make me go: WOW! I have to know what happens next. But I didn't think it was terrible. P.S. for those of you saying Leanne was Taylors previous roomate(in the web series) and then died. You don't know its her yet!

Posted by Justine on August 11, 2009 at 07:46 PM EDT #

i thought reed was in a different dorm than them and then they call her glass licker? but oh well love it so much! Thanks Kate Brian!!

Posted by Ginger on August 11, 2009 at 07:46 PM EDT #

i agree with the comment above me. Kiran looks nothin like i thought she would. i think the girl who totally should have played kiran is on the cover of the private book untouchable, the one with the short dark hair.

Posted by Rachel on August 11, 2009 at 07:47 PM EDT #

i'm kinda disappointed too. Noelle is supposed to be a brunetette. Ariana is not painfully beautifuk. Taylor doesn't have blonde hair. Noelle seems like a bigger version of Amberly, you know?

Posted by tyra on August 11, 2009 at 07:49 PM EDT #

omg I love it!! The characters are different than they're supposed to be but it's still really good. I can't wait to see more episodes!

Posted by juno on August 11, 2009 at 07:54 PM EDT #

but yea i agree with the people on here who have brought up the lack of chemistry between the characters. I didnt really feel like any of them were that close.. you know what im saying? like in the books billings girls are tight. i dunno maybe my expectations are too high because i love the books so much lol

Posted by Rachel on August 11, 2009 at 07:55 PM EDT #

wow. Nothing i can say.

Posted by tyra on August 11, 2009 at 07:55 PM EDT #

Simply wonderful!! will people shut up with the rude comments about hating the show? this blog is for people who like it or actually have something meaningful towards anything PRIVATE related. its really getting on my nerves when people like juno say such mean things about the show.

Posted by summer on August 11, 2009 at 08:25 PM EDT #

Hey Kate! I wanted to say I love your books, and Im inspired to write because of them! Bt I have a problem: Im in Canada, and I don't exactly know how but I managed to watch the first episode of Private. But when I tried clicking on it again to find out how it let me watch it, it told me that I cant watch it because im in Canada. So I was wondering what exactly happened. :)

Posted by Lucy on August 11, 2009 at 08:38 PM EDT #

I have been watching the episode for about 100 times and loving every single second of it! wonderful job cast and crew and of course kate! tomorro the next one is on

Posted by Kandy on August 11, 2009 at 08:42 PM EDT #

I totally loved that they kept the football scene. When they were passing the ball in the beginning I was surprised to see Thomas! Ah! haha. I just love the football scene but I wished they could have kept with the original meeting when she almost trips over him and the part when he's like, Brennan. Sophomore. I also thought it was kinda crazy with the whole Taylor's roommate dying. ha! Well, can't wait for the next episode tomorrow.

Posted by Jacqueline on August 11, 2009 at 08:46 PM EDT #

Yeah so I pretty much agree with what everyone is saying about how Reed is dead on spot and how I enjoyed Noelle but really thought of her as more of a brunette also I though Kiren was supposed to be model looking nt manly but other then that I am really excited to see how they will keep putting there own twist to the already amazing book series.

Posted by mackenzie on August 11, 2009 at 08:51 PM EDT #

for some reason i think that arianna killed the roomate in the webseries i mean she is psycho right??

i dont like ariana or kiran either i imagined kiran drop dead gorgeous, conceited, and blonde i thought noelle should be brunette but i love taylor and reed i dont like how reed is "put into billings" thats supposed to be sabine, constance, etc but ill see how it goes (:

Posted by shealyn on August 11, 2009 at 09:25 PM EDT #

i think that it's stupid you all are fighting. everybody has their own opinion. i personally don't think the show is that great. but thats just what I think. i'm not saying anything bad, but i just didnt expect it like this. i don't think any of us did. the books were awesome and i think that our expectations rose very high and some of us were let down while others weren't. but, i dont think we should yell at the actors. they're trying very hard to impress people who love these books a lot and have visions of how we wanted it and everybody's is different. they're trying their hardest and i thank you for giving us something to watch. but i am disappointed but i hope the next episodes will be better. hopefully they will. AND i CANT WAiT FOR SUSPiCiON! it looks soooooooo good!

okay, i love the book series and i didnt think that the web shows would be very good but i mean WOW! it just blew me away! at first i didnt like it but after watching it again and reading some of the comments i quickly changed my mind! i cannot wait untill tomorrows show. So who's with me ladies!?

Oh and i dont get why so many of the "fans" (yeah right) hate the show so much? i mean yeah ok it's a lot different from the books but i think that it will make for good surprises! and besides, its no fun if you already know what is going to happen.

Posted by Shannon on August 11, 2009 at 10:15 PM EDT #

Hey Kate, love the show! sam is cool as Noelle...i jus think Reed should started bradwell all girls dorm like in the book so can get the feel and of what Billings truely means like in the book...but still love show its gr8 cant wait to watch the rest.....

Posted by Brittanny on August 11, 2009 at 10:19 PM EDT #

i loved it -] i wish it was longer though like a tv show =[ i expected noelle to be talller i think it adds to her presence but this actor is doing awsome with intimidation. and i like the change in script from book. it mixes it up a bit! =] cant wait for more! Sarah

WHY CAN SOME CANADIANS WATCH IT AND I CANT?! :( xx YASMIN

Posted by Yasmin on August 11, 2009 at 10:22 PM EDT #

Okay, I was just rereading my fave parts from Private(the first book) and I JUST noticed something. Kate, you made an error. When Reed first met Thomas(on page 12 of book 1), she thought: "His dark hair fell over his forehead in a messy yet somehow totally diliberate way, one lock landing right over one of his strikingly deep blue eyes." And then, on page 202, around the bottom, it said: "He looked up at me, his brown eyes pleading." See it? Hope you don't take it the wrong way. I'm just very perspective when I read books more than 3 times ~Janie~

Posted by Janie on August 11, 2009 at 10:25 PM EDT #

I don't want to seem rude or ungrateful or anything but to me that was nothing like the books at all. That is just my opinion. They are missing so much of the books. I still loved it though.

HOW DO I WATCH IT!!?!??! WHERE ON FACEBOOK?

Posted by girl waiting. on August 11, 2009 at 10:28 PM EDT #

I agree completely with Juno. we are allowed to voice our opinions thats why this blog was created. obviously we think there are good things about the webseries too but the actors/ actresses/ producers/ whoever is reading this can get told that somewhere else. the people who are saying negative things like me are saying them because we know kate reads these and maybe some of the other people so they can change it. people will always pick out the bad in any given situation. stop whining about how mean we sound and get over it. were just trying to improve the show and the people who made it are grownups and can get over it. keep reading im not done...

Posted by Lauren on August 11, 2009 at 10:29 PM EDT #

yea and one time it said tht josh had green eyes and then another it said he had blue eyes. Thats wat i noticed when reading them. But i love you kate!!! and I don't really care :D

Posted by shealyn on August 11, 2009 at 10:29 PM EDT #

..... kate i think you write the best series out there and im not saying anything bad about you just that there need to be some improvements to the show. and for whoever said the people complaining dont have lifes that is so wrong. i have a very good and fun life thank you very much and you are exactly the same as us because you are complaining about what we say! so look in a mirror, take your own advice, and stop whining!

Posted by Lauren on August 11, 2009 at 10:30 PM EDT #

I KNOW LIKE SERIOUSLY I REALLY WANT TO WATCH IT SO IF IT IS ON FACEBOOK SOMEWHERE IT WOULD BE REALLY APPRECIATED IF SOMEONE COULD TELL US FANS FROM OTHER COUNTRIES :D PLEAS!

i agree! i wanna watch it, where on facebook is it!?!

Posted by girl waiting. on August 11, 2009 at 10:33 PM EDT #

janie? i also enjoy reading my favorite books a couple of times and am very... how did you put it...perspective, but personally i dont think its healthy to dwell on the small things. if you do then you tend to miss the whole picture. so i think that a little mistake is totally fine because all authors make mistakes.

Posted by Shannon on August 11, 2009 at 10:34 PM EDT #

I know, Shannon. I totally and completely agree with you. I was just pointing it out 'cuz I wanted to see if anyone else noticed it. I usually notice small things when I am positive about everything else that's about to come up.

Posted by Yasmin on August 11, 2009 at 10:48 PM EDT #

Okay first off Kate please make it available worldwide instead of just in the states.I am in love with your books more than any other.And that is saying something considering how many books I read.When your books come out I am there the first day to buy them and have it finished by the next day only because I force myself to not finish it in one.I love everything about the books and I can’t wait to see the web show.I check every day to see if I can watch it Second off people who hate the show didn’t the directors say in the beginning that it wasn’t going to be exactly like the books? Anyways wouldnt it would be kind of boring if it was totally the book for we would all know what was coming.And stop being mean the the actress. They aren’t ugly and I sure they are doing a great job. If you were them would you like it if someone was telling you that you are ugly and suck? Honestly think you could do a better job than professional actors? Plus be happy you can watch it

okay one of the songs on the show is called on my own. the other one i am not sure of so if you know it than please enlighten me. untill then i will continue looking on itunes and youtube.

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

this show dissapointed me a lot. I had high expectations and everything was completely changed around and I think it will ruin the whole feel. sorry. other than that it was fine.

Posted by allison on August 12, 2009 at 12:02 AM EDT #

I think they murdered your books. Reed is the only character that seems right..... I'd rather go reread your books than watch it. I'm sorry for being blunt-ish

Hey Kate, I looooved loved loved the 1st episode!!!! I rly liked that Billings House is GORGEOUS and that first encounter with Reed and Thomas:) I also like Noelle, shes just the way i imagined her when i read the books(except for the blonde detail) but i still love her! Although, i didnt like that Reed didnt get to live in Bradwell so she didnt meet Constance or any of the other girls, and Reed didnt have to wish to be in Billings, she was just in. Taylor is not rly how i imagined her, but thats okay cuz i know the actress is trying her hardest and is doing good! And last thing i love Kiran! i liked her the most between the final three in the contest! cant wait till the nxt one!!!! Thanks a lot!! <3

Posted by Kelsey on August 12, 2009 at 12:24 AM EDT #

But Kate NOO ONE IS BLAMING YOU! Your the creator of an amazing series and as long as your books are awesome then i really could care less how the webseries is affected. The books are still GREAT! So thats all that matters. and hey you guys maybe they'll turn these books into movies and we can all forget about this awfull dissapoinment. what'ya say?![:

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

OMG! Kate!! Please, I still can't watch it even after the whole facebook thing for some reason all we (non americans) can watch is the trailer. Please Kate if you can do something to make us able to watch it we would love you so much more than we already do!! A lot of Candadians love private and I'm sure that people from other countries do aswell so it's not fair that only americans can watch it! Help Kate please!! I love you and your books <3

Posted by shealyn on August 12, 2009 at 01:02 AM EDT #

I'm sad to say that i'm not a huge fan of the wed series! i really love the books, and was hoping for some sort of show, and though the web series did come out, 7 minutes just doesn't cut it. I feel like the web series is much different than the books and isnt as good as i was hoping. The characters dont match up at all, i will say that reed is a good fit and kiran is okay as well, but other than that i dont think the characters were matched up very well. I wish you had come out with a tv show that would be on for an hour, that way the details would have been better and you could have followed the books better. Many people would have liked that a whole lot better, it could have been up there with shows like gossip girl and such!

THOMAS IS SOOOO HOTTT!! I replayed his scene like 100 times, no joke! hah. But seriously I love him, as soon as I was finished watching I went and bought the song 'Boy meets Girl' by Evan Taubenfeld (aka. Blake Pearson) That scene blew me away with that song it was absolutely perfect I loved it! I CAN'T get enough of this show! I'm not going to be like everyone else on here and talk about how the show is not like the books and therefore is no good, I thought it was excellent! Yeah right like they could have gotten just like the books do you know hard that would have been obviously not thats why we're not the producers or directors. No offense to anyone I just think its kind of annoying that alot of people are dissing the show, we should just be lucky we even have a show to watch thats even remotely close to the books! You rock kate, keep it up!

i like the series so far, by itself. i don't like how noelle is blonde, and taylor isn't, though their acting was ok. i do like how noelle is the shortest of the billings girls but the most feared. reed LOOKS perfect; she's a lot spunkier and less of a follower than in the books, where she actually WANTED to be a billings girl, but i like the web series reed, because she seems even stronger. easton and billings look perfect, as does thomas =] i was the least happy with kiran and ariana - for ariana, i imagined a petite version of ginta lapina, someone more delicate and ethereal looking. this ariana doesn't seem as dangerously sweet... just dangerous. she's still slender, but in a healthy way, and tall, which doesn't make her seem like someone with health problems. and kiran? i watched the casting call vids, and according to the books, kiran has modeled for ralph lauren and abercrombie. models for those brands aren't usually exotic-looking-they have a conventional, all-american beauty

the episode was pretty good. the changes were weird, but decent. i still wish noelle was a brunette but oh well. the actresses are great, but sanna creeps me out. thomas's scene was funny, cuz it's strange that he's saying that to reed if he barely knows her. it's not the same as the books of course, but it's fine. btw, the girl who plays reed is so pretty! she should have played bella in twilight. kristen stewart has no emotion.

I could totally watch it yesterday even though I'm in Canada, but when I went on today it wouldn't let me. What happened?

Posted by Emily on August 12, 2009 at 08:09 AM EDT #

I don't Know same thing happened to me someone told me we might only be able to watch to each episode once!!! But at least we get to watcht the episode!!!

Posted by Alice Cox on August 12, 2009 at 08:13 AM EDT #

When Ariana calls Reed "Trailer Park" I think that was the replacement word for "glass-licker"

Posted by Vanessa on August 12, 2009 at 09:11 AM EDT #

I hope this becomes available in Canada soon! I love the books and really want to see the web series!

Posted by Alex on August 12, 2009 at 09:26 AM EDT #

The episode was okay, but it was very different from the book. First of all Reed wasn't put into Billings as soon as she got there and she didn't meet the Billings girls till later when they start to call her glass licker. I wish it followed the story line of the actual book more closely.

Posted by Sally on August 12, 2009 at 10:05 AM EDT #

Hey Kate! Well, I live outside of the USA and I hope that you are trying to make these episodes available to people outside the USA. So I was thinking, maybe you could post the episodes on your blog just like you did with the trailor! That would be awesome! When episode 1 came out I could watch it in the first 2 hours. But only once. And I love watching things over and over again. I'm just glad that there actually is a series out. Thanks a bunch for making these books and I hope you can do as much as possible to make the series available to people outside the USA. Thanks Kate! <3

Posted by madison on August 12, 2009 at 10:06 AM EDT #

Dear Kate and Bloggers, the first episode of Private was dumb! The wrong things that happend in the show not book is this: -The Billings Girls (Noelle, Ariana, Kiran, and Taylor) already know Reed is coming, she is on partial scholarship, she is a sophomore, and she is from PA. -The WHOLE football sence is wrong!! No one says "Heads Up!", Reed does NOT drop her schedule that Ms. Naylor gave Reed earlier that morning, Thomas asks Reed "Where are you living?" Reed says "Um, I think that it is called Billings?" -When Reed goes to Billings she is talking to her brother on a Mac laptop through webcam and Reed tells her brother she can not call him because the school took her CELL PHONE, Reed meets the Billings Girls in her room that she shares with Taylor and Taylor's old roommate went bye bye!

Posted by GAHHH!! on August 12, 2009 at 10:07 AM EDT #

This is the same person!^^ -Reed's first DORM IS BRADWELL NOT BILLINGS! Her roommate at Bradwell is Constance Talbot in the book. In the show her "Billings roommate" is Taylor and Reed got to be her roommate because Taylor's old roommate "killed herself" by jumping off the Billings roof. THAT IS IN THE SHOW NOT THE BOOK. -Taylor's roommate in the BOOK is Kiran Hayes!!!!

Posted by GAHHH!! on August 12, 2009 at 10:08 AM EDT #

SAME PERSON and I ment bye bye as Killed herself

Posted by GAHHH!! on August 12, 2009 at 10:09 AM EDT #

Hi, I was just wondering if Dash was going to be in the episodes too. Because I love Dash and the series wouldn't be complete without him! Thanks!

Posted by madison on August 12, 2009 at 10:09 AM EDT #

Same Person^^ Sally I LOVE YOU! I totally agree it did not follow the story line well at all!!!!

Posted by GAHHH!! on August 12, 2009 at 10:10 AM EDT #

Madison yes Dash will be in the show.

Posted by GAHHH!! on August 12, 2009 at 10:11 AM EDT #

i don't get why everyone is like 'i hope Canada gets it soon' there are other people in the world that like private! i LOVE private! it is (one of my) obsession('s)! and guess where i am from?? England! so it would be nice to say 'out side of the u.s'

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 10:15 AM EDT #

I believe the next episode starts @ 10:30 like yesterday? or 11

Posted by Vanessa on August 12, 2009 at 10:25 AM EDT #

OH MY GOD! I JUST HEARD THAT SAMANTHA COPE IS HISPANIC! Noelle wasn't hispanic!!!

Posted by Vanessa on August 12, 2009 at 10:27 AM EDT #

Reed in the show has a Mac laptop and a cell phone (the cell phone got taken away by the school). REED IS KIND OF POOR! She does not own a LAPTOP OR CELL PHONE! She used the library's computer and used a pay phone or borrowed a phone to make a call!!! She does not get a laptop till later in the series, and when she does it is from her roommate at Billings, Natasha Crenshaw. And she gets the cell phone I think from Noelle or from another Billings girl.

Posted by GAHHH!! on August 12, 2009 at 10:31 AM EDT #

They gave noelle so much lip gloss that its actually dripping and it looks like she busted her lip.

Posted by Vanessa on August 12, 2009 at 10:40 AM EDT #

okay people. all of you are complaining that its not like the book. uh....so? kate, i thot it was amazing. if it was exactly like the book, we would know exactly whats happening,whats gonna happen, and when it will. this way, there are still suprises that keep us guessing. just like the books. also consider that they have to fit it in 20 episodes. the books are pretty long and have a ton of detail! if they tried to fit all the details in, then they would not be able to finish the series. the way you are all complaining, you would think that the main characters from the book arent in it! personally i thot it was great. and why dont you wait until you have seen all the episodes before complaining? -erin

Posted by erin on August 12, 2009 at 10:41 AM EDT #

I REALLY don't like it. They've turned it into like...a hazing-gone-bad story. Why would Arianna "make room" for Reed, she hadn't meet Thomas before being placed in Billings, and she doesn't have to struggle and earn her place in Billings. But I guess since it's just a web series they are only taking one of the main plots in the books, of Arianna going crazy when Thomas takes to Reed. I wish they could have waited to make until they could do it as a full show or movie or something, where you can get MORE of it. I didn't like their house, it didn't seem as imposing/magestic from the outside and wasn't richly/fashionly decorated as I imagined. Why was Thomas using cheesy lines!?!?! He's way more sohpisticated in the book, but I did like the part where he was like "I got this" to Josh, it shows that they both liked her. I hope it gets better

yer but on the lap top you can see it has the schools logo on the back so it might be schools (as well as the schools twitter i loved that touch)

Posted by Anna on August 12, 2009 at 10:45 AM EDT #

Layla: ur right, those things are different, but who knows im sure if it didnt cover the books well that Kate wouldn't have agreed to it!

Posted by erin on August 12, 2009 at 10:47 AM EDT #

yeah just watched it, it was shorter than the last episode. What's the point of a show being 6 minutes?

Posted by Vanessa on August 12, 2009 at 11:07 AM EDT #

Just watched the second episode. It was ok. The series is growing on me.

Posted by Justine on August 12, 2009 at 11:10 AM EDT #

yeah i agree reed shouldnt have a cell phone or laptop. in the books she did use the libraries computers and she used the pay phone and then later on someone actually gave her a cell phone.

omg.espisode 2 is awesome. Ariana is so good and is really bringing her character to life.i want to be her she is so beautiful. i just want the shows to be longer.that look that thomas gives at the end is a killer look.he is so hawt.

Posted by Kathy on August 12, 2009 at 11:22 AM EDT #

i remember reed going to the library to use the computers but then later on in the books i guess someone gave her a laptop because remember she would go on her email after cheyenne died and there would be a ton of emails from her. also she used pay phones in the first book so she didnt have a cell phone but someone eventually gave her one. i cant remember who though and since when can they not have cell phones on school property?? i remember her calling josh with her cell phone and many other people while being on school property.

I didn't like thomas's acting at all. It was wierd. NOt charming.

Posted by jenna on August 12, 2009 at 11:28 AM EDT #

the episode kinda threw me off. FIRST OF ALL, let me say that i absoulutley LUVVVV how billings and easton academy look. but i'm really mad that reed didnt go through bradwell. constance was one of my favorite characters. and when she actually does get into billings, she feels accepted. and why is taylor reed's roomate????? i mean Natasha was verrry important to the book. wut's with the uniforms? where are all the other billings girls? what is with shelby or watev the girl who died? isn't their an actual billings girl in the series that is named shelby. this is sooo annoying! i don't mind if they take things out of the book but if they add in new stuff that bothers me.

First we cant watch the auditions.Then you give us a teaser and now we cant watch the shows???!!!!

I saw the first episode on teen.com....can't say that i LOVED it. but it wasn't horrible. I just expected a little more. Anywas ... love you kate..you're my favourite author :)

Posted by Kitty on August 12, 2009 at 08:56 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 Kitty on August 12, 2009 at 09:00 PM EDT #

Why wasn't Natasha her roommate? She was a big part of the first four books. Plus, since Taylor is Reed's roommate, you lose the closeness of Kiran and Taylor. It will defintley make Taylor's breakdown harder. Otherwise, it was pretty good. I liked how close Reed and her brother are. In the books they were the same way, but it's more pronounced in the web show.

Posted by Lola on August 12, 2009 at 09:14 PM EDT #

Kate, we love the books private, and we love you so well, but we must admit this web show has turned out to be hell. we want some actors, who look like the characters in the books, not some awful amateurs who dont even know how to look. the script is too different, this isnt even private, the lines are really awful and we want what we protested! ariana doesnt look like ariana, josh isnt that hot, the actor playing thomas thinks hes cool but hes not! wheres taylors blonde locks? why the heck did leanne fall?! kate, were so sorry, but we dont like it at all! we appreciate you trying, but maybe try again... give us somthing we all love, like when constance and reed are friends! copy and paste this if you dont like it all that mcuh, and you want to be honest. kate thanxx for trying... but this isnt OUR private, and admit it, it isnt your either. love, your fans

i think as many or more fans love it vs. hating it so why can someone that says they hate it try to tell the one's that like it that they are just saying that they like it. that makes no sense.

i agree Noelle should not be blonde and Taylor should not be a brunette...it just doesnt work. the show should stick to the ahhhhhhmazing books that i fell in love with, not create their own story line. i really do not like what i see

Posted by Danielle on August 12, 2009 at 10:31 PM EDT #

i love the books soo much but this is nothin like it. i like it so far but i wish the characters looked like they do in the book and i wish u kept the same story line. dont get my wrong, i like the show its just i wanted to see something more like the book so i can see it actually happening instead of just imagining it. i hope you can like make the others more like the book but im still gonna keep watching the webisode. luvv ya! ~@??ee ?

i was surpised at the way reed and thomas meet i like how they meet in the book and also reed just going into billings

Posted by Alison on August 13, 2009 at 04:23 PM EDT #

What really surprised me is how not true to the books it is. Thomas kind of creeps me out, but he is still man candy! I was kind of upset that she didn't get into Billings the same way as in the novel. It also bothers me how the girls call her 'trailer park' instead of 'Glass Licker'.

Posted by Olivia on August 13, 2009 at 05:14 PM EDT #

I was disappointed with the majority of the casting, & the storyline. But whatever, it happens! It was pretty good, Reed & Thomas were perfect. I love Noelle, but I don't understand why they didn't die her hair brown, she looks like a natural brunette anyway. Taylor would've been the picture perfect Sabine! I hated how they called her Trailer Park. One of my favorite parts in the book was Reed spying on their Fat Phoebe.

Posted by Seline on August 13, 2009 at 07:33 PM EDT #

Posted by Madison on August 13, 2009 at 08:39 PM EDT #

Chord would be a better Josh if he had the curls or if he was blonde... but oh well. The guy who plays Thomas is hot! but he talks kind of weird... once again... oh well! the only real problem i have is Noelle. She looks to sweet and she's blonde... I still hold on to the image of the tall, brunette beauty as Noelle. Natalie Floyd is perfect for Arianna! her bone structue is goregous! Taylor is adorable even if she isnt blonde and cherub... shes still cute. Sanna is okay i guess; i still think Janine would have been better; but what can i do. I wish it wasn't moving so fast and the episodes were longer...

Posted by Landon on August 15, 2009 at 04:05 PM EDT #

Kelsey Saunders who plays Reed Brennan is a Disney Movie Surfer! I find it hilarious. She was the "surfer" interviewing Frankie Jonas and Noah Cyrus!! I was laughing so hard. Not making fun of her; just because i didn't expcet it!

Posted by Landon on August 15, 2009 at 04:15 PM EDT #

LOVE IT SO MUCH! just i love the books so much more and thinks they messed up a lot because they should of sticked to the books the casting is good for the guys just not the girls and wish they would show josh and thomas's sidekicks gage.trey and dash cause me and my best friend love the boys in the books so much

Posted by Zoe on August 16, 2009 at 01:54 AM EDT #

The show are ok but it bugs me how the characters dont look like they would in the book! Like how Noelle doenst have brown hair and Taylor doesnt have blonde cirls(even though i still love the girl who plays her)! Also I imagined someone else for Kiran..and Reed doenst go through Bradwell and she doesnt know Natash or Constace!! uggg!!

Posted by Donna Martin on August 16, 2009 at 06:14 PM EDT #

I am mad that it differs so much from the book, Noelle looks too sweet, taylor isnt the chubby blonde, and they changed plot events but i think on its own they are good and i plan to watch them all.

Posted by Sid on August 19, 2009 at 07:39 PM EDT #

Please hurry and find a way to bring it into Canada I'm dying to watch it, I am such a huge fan of the books and have always wanted them turned into a movie but a web series will half satisfy me.

Posted by Jenny on August 20, 2009 at 03:35 PM EDT #

The show was pretty good, but I rather stick with just the books, I will keep watching the series. Its just hard for me to watch it after reading the books because its so much different, and things happen so quickly. Like Reed and Thomas making out and stuff at night, it was just to soon v.v

Posted by Jennie on August 31, 2009 at 05:13 AM EDT #

How could Kate Brian let them do this to her amazing books? I have read all of them except Last Christmas and love them, but the web series makes a complete mockery of them. THIS IS NOT THE SERIES I LOVE!!!

Posted by Starr on September 02, 2009 at 01:16 AM EDT #

The web series is NOTHING like the books! I always read and pay close attention to my books and was really excited at the THOUGHT of the webseries. But I couldn't even get through the first episode. It is disgusting and barely matches the book! I love the book but the series absolutely stinks. I wish Kate could play a better part in the production. The original writer knows what expectations should be met and this consitency with book is a HUGE one! I promise to still buy and read the books but the webseries I do not like at all.

Posted by Stephanie on September 03, 2009 at 08:56 PM EDT #

1. Noelle a blonde? No...I pictured Kiran a blonde, not Noelle. 2. Reed just showed up at Billings and got in automatically?!? WHAT? 3. All that drama about Shelbey DYING?!? She was so not dead! 4. (this is from later on) There is way too much plugging for Neutrogena. 5. Since when does Taylor like Josh? Honestly, it is so not true to the book AT ALL, but contrary to other, I like it.
