Lee would be thrilled to know that one of his gnomes just sold on eBay for £37. The successful bidder was ‘TheLoneliestTraveller’, which means that the gnome will be jetting all the way to Azusa, California. We hope he’ll be very happy - please send us a photo when he’s settled in.
There’s no need to worry about the travelling gnome’s carbon footprint as the £37 is being donated to Garden Africa.
We are so overwhelmed by the outpouring of emotion that the community has expressed with the end of lonelygirl15. Since our announcement yesterday, there has been a lot of great discussion about lonelygirl15, the new show, and what this means for the community. I personally wanted to clarify a few possible misconceptions you might have as a result of our post.
First, in our minds LG15 is a Universe taking place around the story of The Order, an evil secret society that has discovered the existence of very rare girls that carry a special blood trait. Blood from these “Trait Positive” girls can extend the life of anyone who can transfuse the blood into his/her body. lonelygirl15 is the first show living within the LG15 Universe and KateModern was the second. We plan on telling MANY more stories within the Universe, including upcoming shows in Europe and the new one in the US.
Second, the new show is not going to be a fusion of lonelygirl15 and KateModern. Instead, it will take “the best things from each show,” meaning that we will apply what we’ve learned from producing them over the past two years – writing, interactivity, 12 in 12’s, etc. There might be some familiar characters in the new show, but we do not intend on combining the two series.
Finally, the heart and soul of the LG15 Universe is www.LG15.com and will remain so with the new website. The LGPedia, forum, Community videos, and InsideLG15 will all continue to be a part of the site.
We look forward to the LG15 Universe and it’s mythology living on for years to come with new characters and storylines. If you have any questions or comments, please leave them in the comments below.

We have some exciting news to announce! Over the last several months, we have been working to rebuild the LG15 website. Our programmers and designers have been working tirelessly to code and design a new social network platform. In August, we will relaunch LG15.com as a full-functioning social network with profile pages, chat, forums, comment boards, blogs, groups, and other tools. In the future, we will be integrating third party sites such as YouTube and Twitter into the platform so that you can manage your accounts from LG15.com as well as import your videos, photos, and messaging into your profile pages. We are very excited and eager to show you what we have built. During the month of August we ask you to beta test the site, send us your feedback, and invite friends to join the new and improved LG15 community.
We will also be premiering a new LG15 Universe show based in the US. It will bring together the best parts of lonelygirl15 and KateModern, including some of your favorite characters. To make room for the new storyline and characters, we’ve decided to bring the lonelygirl15 storyline to an end. We are working with amazing writers and actors and are very excited about the new show. To this community, it will feel less like a new show and more like another chapter in the LG15 storyline that picks up where lonelygirl15 and KateModern left off. To new members of the community, it will be a new story that they can get into from the start so they can experience the show without the need to watch over 500 videos. Get ready for an exciting lonelygirl15 finale on August 1!
This is very exciting for all of us and we are so happy to share it with you. It has been a long road and many of you have been there with us from the beginning. We are excited to have you continue with us on this journey. Remember, we are counting on you to test the site during August and September and report your feedback so we can fix all the bugs before the new show launches.

Brendan Gallagher:
KateModern I love!
Come on everybody,
Come and gather round,
Pick up the broken pieces,
And I will tell ya what’s going down,
There was a show
A show like no other,
It started with with an art video,
Then a pretty face
An Aussie and Ralph little
This is when I knew
When I had found my new love
Now I miss it so
Because it ended on the 28th
Buts that not what you need to know!
You can still watch all the videos
On the LG15 site
But that’s is not what this song is for,
This song is to tell everyone
How much I love KateModern
Which I absoluty love,
When waiting on the videos
I leave a comment on Chaz’s page
And of course I sharing the love,
Just waiting for the comment back
Then I rewatch some video’s
Then recheck my page
When I see that comment from
One of the lovely cast
My heart fills up with love
And then I shout for Joy
Then I throw my hands in the air
And shout I love KateModern
And nothing will part it from me
Yet then Kate dies
At the hands of the evil Terry
Which then we find a new young cute blond
But her sister had been taken
By the Order of Course
And she was sacrificed
We know her name is Lauren
And part of the drug trail
After a incident at the bunker
She comes to live with Charlie and Lee
They make some lovely Happy food
Which fills me with Joy
Then I love the video that Lauren
Makes with the pills
Then Jonas comes to visit
Then Steve goes over there
Then Paris comes around
And Charlie is framed
But this is what I love about
KateModern
There is a lot of twists and turns
Even a puzzle or two!!
But then its came it an end
So just like KateModern
My song is ending now
But I have one last thing I have to say
I love KateModern
And thanks to all the cast and crew
For making me have a Year to have a new thing to Love!!
It’s all become so complicated
I can’t understand these things I created
I’m trying to make something of my fate
But my name is not even Kate
We always try to put a frame around things
We don’t realise the trouble it brings
We think we know the truth about everything
It’s cool stuff, but it does your head in
I need someone to take away this pain
I’m having those dreams again
And things aren’t really making much sense
I’ve got the evidence
Maybe tomorrow will be a better day
There’s so much on my mind, so much to say
All I can do is try to find the right way
But my name is not even Kate
Everything has a beginning and an end
I’ve met this guy, and he’s been a good friend
The past few days are just a blur
He’s trying to help me remember
My specialist doctor never did much good
Maybe he did, but I misunderstood
There’s got to be something I have missed
I need to get to the bottom of this
I’ve never been so close to answers before
You don’t have to worry about me anymore
I know I can figure all of this out
You can trust me, I’m Kate now
Thanks Katie!
Al (hopefulsemblance) thinks he might be the biggest KateModern fan around.
