I like the Joey/Pacey - Blair/Dan similarities brought up, I think these couples kinda have similar chemistry. Meaning: LOADS.
I am a die-hard Dair fan (was from the beginning of season 3 actually when Dan told Blair to forget the hairband or what), so I LOVE to watch these eps but I'm also well aware of the fact that it was not "meant to be" *originally* so I'm prepared fot the letdown.
HOWEVER, I do have a comforting thought to all my fellow Dair fans: I dunno how many of you watched the show Veronica Mars, but there was actually a given golden couple (Veronica and Duncan) and then started exploring another pairing (Veronica and Logan), and because of that insane chemistry of the latter one, the writers actually CHANGED the original plotline/storyline and made Veronica and Logan the "epic" couple.
So all I'm saying is, it *could* happen, Dair could have a shot on the long run. We'll see. In a way, it always, ALWAYS comes down to what the majority wants.

@Kim
On the Joey Pacey topic, it was the third season when the chemistry started to really build between the two, a friendship actually (and it took three-plus seasons to get them there) Yet the whole purpose of the show was to develop the soul mate status between Joey and Dawson. And at the end of the sixth and final season episode, half way through filming, the writers on a whim changed the ending from Joey with Dawson to Joey with Pacey, which was sort of a big shocker considering the show was called "Dawson's" Creek. But there was something special about Jacey the writers couldn't ignore.
So there reallly is no sure bet if there's going to be a Dair or a Chair or a Lair or a XYZair until that final episode airs, or they could do the Gilmore Girl approach and have her be just Blair. But one thing is for sure; this show is really the Leighton Meester hour. And the true fans will stick with it and watch week after week the ups and downs of Blair and companys' lives as they make mi
Dair along the way. But I really have to prepare my craziness if the show decides something else :# that chemistry, that scenes together and all that for nothing? Have to mean something!

DAIR DAIR DAIR DAIR DAIR!!
I used to be obsessed with Chair. But they've really managed to make me a convert.
I can't help it, I have the biggest crush on Penn. He can do no wrong by me.
Well. Except Vanessa.

We can only hope they don't follow The Philadelphia Story to a T and change it's ending. Chuck is just not good enough for Blair. She deserves so much better. I'd rather she stay single than go back to him. Will never get over him pimping her out for a hotel.

@Jenna The ratings were up by 23% last night. The 2nd highest ratings since The Townie.

This was one of the greatest episodes ever regarding Dairness but everything else was so bland seriously I zoned in all the other scenes. When Dair scenes came on all I could think was Be still my beating heart! LOVED IT can't wait until next week Ugg 6 more days of torture..but what can you do! And for those who think that Dair fans are setting themselves up for heartbreak..I got news for ya'll we've known that Dair wouldn't last that long but we are severing the moment for as long as we can.

Kim: Yeah, Pacey and Joey was memorable and the two were awesome together.
So yes, I think it should be a Dair, the two complements each other so well and I do not understand those who do not see this. For me, it's Dan and Blair who have made this season worth seeing and I sincerely hope that it will not be a Blair and Chuck again.

It's weird they are pushing Dan and Blair when the prince is going to be here in a few episodes. I think DB fans should get ready for a big let down. This couple will not make it. A show needs conflict and DB have NONE. They aren't interesting enough to carry this show and after seeing the ratings this morning it looks like they won't be exploring DB again. And Chuck and Blair will come back anyway.

Bland was annoying. The only good thing was the Chuck story line and ,again, this show managed to get the 2nd lowest ratings they've ever had. Bland aren't selling anything and I can't wait until it's over. Which should be soon judging by filming pictures.

I said it before and I'll say it again...Serena is SHAMELESS. Canoodling with your bad choice of the week on your ex boyfriend's couch without a flicker of shame when he walks in on you? Girl is COLD. One day, Dan's gotta call her out on this. I kinda hope it's the day when she finds out Ben is a complete psycho (after four years in prison; what a shocker!) and tries to use Dan as her rebound safety like always.
I didn't understand a damn thing about the drugs and the tulips and the mix up but I say go Damien for milking the UES geniuses for all their worth. Love how the Van der Woodsens caved under such a weakass threat. If it was that easy to make $100000 I would be so rich right now.
Yay, Rufus got a line! And Vanessa...ugh. But I say if they're going to bring her back, do it right and make her the jealous villainess she was always meant to be. Vanessa just doesn't do nice very well and we all hate her no matter what. Might as well give us a reason. LOVED that Dan

Please don't let Blair and Dan end like Connor and Tracy. I want them to last. They are the sole reason to watch GG!!!

The only thing which can save Dair is big support and media acclaim.
Actually the writers're doing the PS, which means Dair won't last (like Tracy and Connor). So if you're a fan, show your support on Twitter, Facebook, recaps, everywhere.

Oh Dair! I think they're amazing together. Please writers, let them hook up! But on another note tho, what was going on with chuck in the promo? Did he see Blair & Dan kissing?
Even tho i'm a Dair fan, there's nothing like watching Chuck trying to get Blair's attention

Wow this ep was amazing. At least DAIR was incredible. The way the writers handles them isn't rushed and well built. I always thought that Chuck/Blair was absolutely endgame but DAIR's chemistry matches up to Chuck/Blair a damn sight more. Dair is definitely humping the show right now and the only worth watching storyline. DARE TO DAIR.

Blair and Chuck. Blair and Chuck. Love Dan and Blair and friend but not anything else. Why do they have to go there - just so EVERYONE can hook up? Can't we have them as friends - the show needs more relationships like that. I guess Chair are always going to be a journey and I'll try to enjoy Dan and Blair right now but Chair is endgame.

When on earth did DAIR interaction become the reason I watch the show? I've always been amused by their banter, but now I could care less about any other plot line, and the sole reason I am watching is for Dan and Blair to be on screen together. I don't know if I'm rooting for a relationship - it seems doomed to be transient, and if that happens we might not see them together much which would be a shame. But even the movie choice of this ep seems to indicate an eventual return of Chair - Dan is totally Macaulay Connor which means our Tracy will end up back with her Dexter (ie Chuck)

I don't know what to make of the clip for next week--obviously, there's something going on with Dan and Blair but, I want to know what Chuck is so upset about--I can't believe it's Blair and Dan because, thus far, they haven't been on his radar.
The voice-over says something about a happening that will rock or tear apart the UES (can't recall the exact words, atm). WHAT IS IT? LOL

Ben got the money back because he threatened to have someone murder Damien - not because he wouldn't support damien's story! That was just something he said to lily and co so that they wouldn't think badly of him.
Serena: Congratulations, you've officially joined the dark side.
