well blair is who wold act marissa guys bc look what happens when she thinks she is mess up she goes forthe bad boy carte and the whole spiral her mind it is "i've been followingrules all my life s why not do the opposite if i am not going to get the reward".serena has been bad phase and knew it was bad what she did and thinks it is bad and learn the thing it is that blair learns but doesn't get she did wrong .that is what i think josh is trying to highlight.

@Cherryl yes and in that episode was clear Blair teachers fixed her grades all the time so if she was first or second in her class was by cheating not because she deserve it.
Uh, no. In that episode, I believe it was referenced that Blair had never asked for such a favor before but it was something teachers typically did at Constance. Plus it was ONE B. Not an F. You don't get first or second in an academically competitive school like Constance unless you're smart and work hard.
There has been support during the series for Blair and Dan working hard at school (remember the flashcards?). All we have for Vanessa is the fact that she magically got into NYU because she's the writers Mary Sue.
Cherryl Says: October 18th, 2009 9:42 AM
@J Cherryl, Blair was first or second in her class at Constance in season 2. She was a straight A student until the Miss Carr debacle.

It seems like Josh Schwartz didn't learn ANYTHING in the last years or from THE OC..Why can almost every other show survive more than three or four seasons? Only his shows end up so fast because the start is always great but then he goes way too fast with the characters and the storylines it's too much for 3 Seasons already..I don't wanted it to be boring but a little bit slower could really help a show to grow and make at least five or six good seasons! And I can see it totally coming that they kill Serena off at the end of season three..like Marissa she isn't going to college, she is always struggeling with her life and don't know where she really is and where she belongs, maybe the send her now a "bad guy" who gets her to use drugs or whatever and kills her in the end and then we see blair struggeling with it! AND BY THE WAY I HATE HOW TO TURNED OUT BLAIR! She is acting like she is 16 again and in high school with the girls behind her and trying to manipulate everybody! And Chuck should stop acting like he is 40 or an old businessman buying a hotel at 18/19?! COME ON..even on the upper east side this is a thing that normally can't happen..

Serena's hair is awful.

The second one was from a discussion of Blair and sex, acting out in high school, etc in season 1. Leighton's point (I thought) was that while Blair was bitchy, etc., she was also the less sexually promiscuous one, the one who studied, etc, the one who cared about what adults thought. I thought her point was that it was interesting that Blair it that role rather than having the more cliche'd bitchy girl as the vamp who won everything.
wen Says: October 18th, 2009 9:30 AM
I'm not cacher1 but Leighton said Blair is a good girl a lot of times, here a few. in teen mag last year: Who would you like to see Blair end up with? Blair could make Chuck more of a good boy,but he is always doing bad things,and that's why you don't want to see the good girl end up with him. and this one is from her interview with OK: "I know she’s the bitchy one. But she’s a good girl.
so what interviews did you read?
J Says: October 18th, 2009 8:45 AM
Cherryl, Blair was first or second in her class at Constance in season 2. She was a straight A student until the Miss Carr debacle. We've seen her obsessing over studying or the SATs several times. She figured out a way to get rid of the Duchess and help Nate, she executed the plans to get rid of Georgina.
Yes, the writers have been sabotaging her all season (and last) in part to help prop up Vanessa. I don't care if there are Blair bashers. I personally hate that they seem to be writing the show now.

when did leighton meester said that blair is a good girl ???
I have seen a lot of her intreviews and all of them she admits that balir is not a good girl and sth like that ..!!

Joshanie Schwavage had to kill off Marissa, because Misha Barton wanted to leave. Better to have her go in a blaze of drama, rather than just not coming back next season. I don't think that indicates some kind of character killing habit. But you never know, all the principal actors have other projects and plenty of alternative offers. It's not too much of a leap to imagine that one of them might get bored filming the same show for nine months every year.

vanessa = yawn. don't care so much bout her, so she's gonna win d speech, please her mum, say "oh my god" maybe a couple of times and totally saves Gossip girl from d doom of bad ratings. hurrahh!
KATRYN: I really hope, as you say, that we're getting 8 seasons, but I heard that the cast were signed up for 6 seasons? but that is still enough for me. But do you think that they are going to kill off any of the important characters like they did in O.C. ? - I think that Josh should also keep in mind that the reactions can be explosive when you kill off important characters, like when they killed off Marissa in O.C. they only got a half fourth season because of the ratings. And I'm so excited about Jacks return, I think he was great and really created some "drama drama" that made me come back for more, like Georgina in season 1.

Cherryl Says: October 18th, 2009 5:14 AM
why is everyone so surprised about Blair losing the speech, the girl is only there because her step dad has connections in NYU,not because any academic merit, if she really was a top student as some here says she would be in Yale,we never knew her SAT results but we now her teachers fix her grades at Constance that's why she was so mad with "Dan's teacher" when she didn't fix her grade so why all Blair fangirls believe she is so smart?,if the writers keep giving us proves of her lack of brains.
also Vanessa SAT results most be great because NYU wanted her she isn't there because someone help her she win everything by herself which it's admirable as her mother says she is thoughtful and driven. if all V haters and Blair fangirls believe that's a bad thing ,I'm glad, I'm not one of them.
