Dont get me wrong, I love Chair, but this romance is taking Blair away from the Blair we used to love the scheming witty one. I also HATED dans sudden popularity I want B to be on top! Im sorry but this season is REALLY starting to suck! We need more Jenny and her stepbrother scenes. And I SWEAR if Blair stops wearing her headbands(remember when Dan threw it away at the stairs)i will stop watching thye show. The problem is they introduce 1,000 guest stars every 5minutes. The show was better when it focused on just the MAIN characters. I hope the shows starts to focus more on the group than having each other out of anothers way. AL USUAL vanessa is still annoying. Like she doesnt add anything good to the show, shes just "there". God... Season 3 is SUCKING!!!Majorly!!!

ANYONE RECOGNISE CARTER FROM THAT NO AXED SHOW KINGS? HE WAS PRETTY GOOD AND HIS CHARACTER WASN'T ALL THAT DIFFERENT. MUCH BETTER IN GOSSIP GIRL THOUGH. I COULD ALSO SEE CHUCK (ED WESTWICK) IN THE SAME ROLE (FROM KINGS)

okay...as an avid Chuck and Blair fan, what some people are saying on here is bothering me. I, for one, am upset that there has admittedly not been a whole lot of Chuck/Blair scenes - so far. However, I think we would all quickly get bored if they consumed all of the screen time (okay, not really, but whatever the writers would undoubtedly fuck it up if it was 45 minutes of Chuck and Blair so I will take my small doses, thank you very much). And people claiming that Chuck and Blair are boring right now? Puh-lease. If they had broken up at the start of this season there would be bitching that "we never get to see any cute scenes." Chuck finally admitted that he loved Blair - pretty big step, he's obviously growing up, so he's not going to be as much of a dick as he was in seasons 1 and 2. They will be back to their old games in no time - be happy that we're getting to see some cute and not over the top gushy scenes with them now. Now if only we can minimize Vanessa and the creepy guylin

Honestly I was kind of disappointed. A huge part of it was definitely because there were only two Chair scenes. What is up with that? But overall I thought it was pretty hilarious.
Blair is so the best TV female character ever. Her storyline was awesome. She deserves to be queen, but to see her struggle for the crown was entertaining. Why would anyone stay to watch a film by Vanessa? That is just unrealistic. One of my favorite quotes was when Georgina said, “Jesus and I have redefined our relationship.”, and in responds Blair said, “You mean he dumped you because He found out you were Satan!” I was dieing of laughter when I heard that.
Stupid Serena. She is so annoying. That brat didn’t even apologize to Chuck. He’s the one she should have done it to not Carter. And now Carter and her are supposedly dating. Eww.
There were like very like scenes of Nate. I thought it was definitely a good I idea because him and Bree or him alone are just a waste of screen time.

I totally loved the scene where blair says: are u okay? and then chuck says: i am now. goshhhhhhhhhhhhh
BUT: I WANT B FOR QUEEN. i hate it that she isn't popular anymore! but as we know blair. she's getting there. whehe.
XOXO.

oh my god.
Amazing episode. There were some really strong lines in there. Dan taking ove the party, and Serena and Carter...perfect!
K, so. Chuck calling Serena a trainwreck was a little harsh. She has gone off the rail a few times, but I can somewhat understand that she needs to find her father. She didn't necessarily have to screw over Chuck though. I felt bad for him and his deal.
Serena and Carter = hot hot chemistry! Hands down.
Georgina and Dan...wtf?!
Poor Blair, I'm sure she'll find her way eventually.
Scott and Vanessa...mehh.
oh and Nate. Uhmm, I like Bree.

Why are the Chuck and Blair scenes cut so short. I want them to be twice as long as any of the others but it seems like the complete opposite. They don't have to say anything, just watching them together would be nice!!!!
