Fans beware.  If you want to get your Gossip Girl fix, you better plan ahead.  In hopes of creating more buzz for its popular freshman show, CW is going to make the drama’s five remaining episodes less available to the public.

Although the show has generated strong word of mouth during its debut season, network execs are still concerned about the cult hit’s bottom line.  Yes - people are watching…but it’s how they’re watching that really matters.  While streamlined videos allow Johnny-come-latelys to get caught up, that service detracts from the program’s daily numbers.
