@ S: yes in fact it does earn me a diploma, if anyone has a problem deal with it. And in my post I don't think I said much about Dair, I complained about the whole abuse argument. I may not understand the Dair apeal but I do know I can't change people's minds about, that's nothing new. And I certainly don't have anything agains Dan in case somebody here is wondering, or Penn for that matter, in fact I just say Easy A and he was wonderful in it.
@ Jazzhillz: you get a life. At least I can say I have learned a great deal out of it, and I don't regret it.
I support Chuck and Blair because of the intensity of their emotions towards each others, the rarity of their dynamic which has not been explored much before, the devotion they share despite everything that has happened, their similar background that creates a bond between them, not for the nicest reason (difficult childhoods), but a bond nonetheless, the deep understanding they have of one another, not all the time of course b

Oh yeah, and I'm happy to finally see a Serena dream! We always see Blair's "Hepburn dreams" but it was neat to see Serena dreams of old movies too and that her idol is Marilyn Monroe (go fig.) lol

Nah, I don't think that this is really a "spoiler" per se as the dream sequence could have easily been worked into last weeks episode. It's not furthering the plot any, just restating Serena's insecurities with Blair and Dan.
It was well done :) I can't wait to see it in the episode!

It made no sense for Chivy to out herself after working so hard and making up all these elaborate lies!! I'm confused!!
Serena kills me!! Again she has realized Dan is for her!? I'm done, she does this mess EVERY season and for the first time Dan was so involved with someone else he missed his opportunity to be the victim in her games again! YES!
I love Lily and Rufus, especially together as a team! I also love Lily and Chuck, she's stuck it out with him through everything and still loves him unconditionally! That's a mother for you!
My predictions are the wedding will happen but at the last minute Georgina will come drop a bomb before vows are exchanged, Chuck will wake up and him and Vlair will try to make this work. Blair will lose the baby : (. Dan will continuing being the driving force for Blair's happiness, no matter how much it's killing him. He will try to distract himself with Serena due to her relentless advances. But in the season finale Chuck AND Blair will offi

I love that footage of the dance sequence coming up after the hiatus - HILARIOUS - and love Chace's comments. I feel like out of all the cast members, Chace is probably the most down-to-earth.
I can see why people think Chuck and Blair are overplayed but I am one of the fans that just can't let the last 4 seasons of Chuck and Blair go. After having being tortured for the last 4 seasons, I need a happy ending!!
There have been times when CB have been awful to each other but they have also been great together. I think they made some mistakes but they are growing from them. The fact is, despite all that has occurred between them, they are still truly in love with each other. Now that they are growing up, they need to be given a chance. I want to see them play out Chuck's wish of building their futures together. Also, it would be a great story line to see how a once dysfunctional couple actually become functional.
Lastly, I wouldn't mind seeing more sexy scenes between them t

So what you're saying is that you've wasted years of your life infront of the TV screen and apparently this has earned you some sort of diploma in understanding TV shows better?
You know what they say, TV makes you stupid.
Also, Justin Bieber trends all the time. It doesn't make his music any less shit.
Trending may indicate popularity but surely not quality. The writers need to give the audience what they need as opposed to what they want. That's why they have professional writers writing the show in the first place instead of, say, you and I.
So what if you found random people of all age groups around the globe who support chair?
I have found random people of all age groups around the globe who support Dair.
Sorry pty, Ive seen you here for a long while and you are always respectful and polite but your arguments are becoming desperate and illogical. Love chair as much as you like but understand that many also love Dair and that that is just as legitimate.

1. 'You cant be princess unless marry prince.' Too true.
2.My general take was that the finale was in bad taste and a soap opera cliche. Princess Diana car crash plot devices, bad taste. Chair reunion? Are you kidding me right now? The whole season Blair has been acting like a flighty, bratty child on steroids. No wonder Louis is losing his mind. The first half of the season hasnt been good for her. The writer need to stop shoving silly soap opera devices at us and start writing better plot lines.
3. Copout. They were trying to get rid of the baby and add another stupid dramatic milestone in the neverending saga that is ChucknBlair. He almost died already, try something new.
4.DAN IS THE MAN. He continued to stand up to Serena, who convienently remembered he was the love of he life all over suddenly. He listened to Blair whine about Louis and Chuck even if it was hurting him. Kept his feelings inside and helped the 'epic'(stil hate that word) couple stop there games and get to

as someone that knows/partied w/ a few folks that work at twitter...it's not *that* hard to get something to trend. we had a celebration we were able to get trending a few months ago.
talking to people all over the world about a pairing like Chair is amazing. they have 4-5 years of story lines dedicated to them. i wouldn't expect anything less. i don't think the writers would've kept them together if Chair didn't have that kind of fan base.
as a former Chair and now Dair but still sometimes Chair fan, I can say that I want Dair to have a chance. that's all. Chair has gotten 5 seasons (good/bad but they've always been entangled) I'd like to have just one season of romantic Dair. i don't' think that's asking a lot. especially since the writing is on the wall that Chair is endgame.

i love your post! though I disagree w/ some points (I LOVED the Chivy storyline and since the beginning of the show, imagined something like this would happen to someone's family).
the glamour of the UES has slowly faded. the show is stuck. what i love about the beginning of shows is that they have all the freedom to explore and follow through on story lines. But as shows like GG get older, they become stuck in a rut where they barely venture out of their comfort zone. prime example: i hate what they did to Vanessa's character. Though I disliked her, I thought they wasted her potential after they paired her with Dan. She needed to have a tie to the UES OUTSIDE of Dan and Jenny, to either Blair, Chuck, Serena, or Nate. I could have EASILY seen a deep love between her and Nate b/c I thought they had cute chemistry when they were together. Smart girl, not so smart but rich guy...etc.
I always thought the non-1%ers aka the average folk hanging out with the super rich was an

If you guys are sooooooo right, why Chuck and Blair trended worldwide on Twitter after the last episode, uh? And I said "we" because I'm not alone in this. I speak with Chuck and Blair fans from Greece to California. And I've been watching TV since I was 4, I was watching Dallas and Remington Steele when I was 5, Hunter when I was 6, McGiver when I was 7, Matlock when I was 8, the Silence of the Lambs, Predator 2, Dangerous Liasons and The Fabulous Baker Boys when I was 10, Cyrano de Bergerac, JFK, The Bodyguard and Terminator 2 when I was 11, Chicago Hope and The Nanny when I was 12, E.R. and Friends when I was 13, so you can't come and preach to me about quality TV, I know Gossip Girl is having a downfall. If CB fans are so alone in this, how come we have the backup of recapers like the ones from the WSJ, NY Magazine, tv recapers anonymous and no white noise? How come we see youtube videos where 10 year old girls mock the writers and ask for CB? How come we have 49 year old women wr

If you think it wasn't abuse at all, try Twitter because from the last time I checked GGWriters tweeted about forgiving someone's act. Why do they have to spill the beans now? You know what, go on defend your ship. Because even then you're blinded by truth. And plus, 'it isn't reality show' is a lame excuse. Is that all you have? Hah. Sorry its a cheap shot.

December 9th, 2011 7:42 PM
And it WAS abuse that happen between Blair & Chuck last season, just shut the fuck up about it. Her panic stricken face and that she run fast away from there says it all. I don't give a damn what the writters and producers said or wrote after that, I have eyes and common sense to see what happened.

December 9th, 2011 7:26 PM
if this were a chick flick with a plot from this season and half of last season, we would all be cheering for Dan & Blair and no one can deny that fact. So Blair & Dan will happen next year, so just deal with it.

I'm not stuck in 2007.
I want more from the shows I watch- good writing and quality.
You may be content with soaps and telenovelas as you repeatedly mention in your comments but I expect more.
So please, don't use 'WE' when you mean "I".
Thank you.
