When "The O.C." was cancelled after four seasons, it created a void in the teen soap universe that even "Veronica Mars" couldn't fill.

Luckily, "O.C." creator Josh Schwartz got hooked up with adapting dirty teen lit super-series "Gossip Girl," and apparently the transition from one nouveau-riche milieu to another proved so smooth Schwartz barely bothered coming up with new characters.

Don't believe us? See for yourself...

Catch all new episodes of “Gossip Girl” beginning Monday, April 21 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on The CW.
