No I don't want Blair to be a teenager again, but I want her to get back her strength and yes, her scheming, and go back to being a character not the caricature she is in danger of becoming despite all of Leighton's considerable talents.
@Anonymous Pining is about all we are going to get since we won't it seems ever get a coherent SL. Maybe the shipper wars are so intense as there is nothing else to this show to focus on. The plots make no sense and you can't count on favorite characters behaving with any rationality from one week to the next let alone actual consistency.

I am a CHAIR fan all the way. I like DAIR as friends, I think that they have really great and funny chemistry. I dont even actually mind DAIR as a couple, I just think that its crazy given that like for for episodes ago (or 2ish months ago in GG time) B. was professing her undying love for Chuck, willing to run off with him. And its not like Chuck did anything to make her turn away from him, except for having the unfortunate luck of almost dying and pulling through just as B. was making some stupid pact with god. I think if there had been more time in between or something more signifcant had happeneed since CHAIR "ended" and DAIR went full on, then I would have bought it more.
I pretty much fast forwarded through the Rhodes-Chivy-Lola storyline. It just doesnt interest me at all.

So clearly we all have feelings about Blair's choice of men, but beyond that why is the show so idiotic? I mean really, CeCe bought the apartment for Lily and William yet after all this time they never changed the name on the apartment? And after Ivy suggested this was her only family she knows why would she toss them out like that? Why wouldn't she want to prove she cared about them, let them stay and just apologize for the whole thing? Because she is terrible just like Lola. Nate, you should really stick up for your friends a little more. Chuck, Lily and Serena were only ones who came out looking good in the episode. Eventually Carol's scheming will come out and I think William might have his hand in the Ivy mess, too. Let's not forget what he did to Lily not too long ago.

I don't think that Jack gave blood, I think it was Diana.
She's definitely chuck's relative, maybe even his mom.
Jack called her to tell her about the accident...
1.Definitely the last scn wit Dair when she was saying his name over and over.. Loved it!!!
2.Yes I can and they can keep going!
3.Dair witout a doubt.
4.I always thought she was GG so u never kno.
5.The dress, didn't mind the other 2.
6.William being lola's dad for sure! I knew Cece would pull some crap like that, i could smell that one from mile away and uncle Jack ain't all that interesting to me.
7.Nah.I think she's being genuine all the way in this one, but when she threw them out of the apartment it did make me raise a brow.
Not sure, but i know Ivy will try her hand at being the HBIC!!!

@whateva Blair didn't do anything to Raina.
Blair's career was ruined with the whole Louis storyline, which caused a lot of problems in this season.
Yes, Blair has regressed, she's been regressing since Season 3.
An example of who Blair should've become is Victoria Grayson from Revenge, she's actually manipulative and powerful in a sense, not like whiny Blair who's supposedly in love but has to make up pathetic excuses because of some contrive reason.
@sup Considering the mess the writers put Chuck and Blair through with the whole hotel incident, the Jenny incident, almost punching Blair, etc. It's not so bad.
Serena's been there, Blair just chose not to go to her.
None of the characters have any life, do you see them actually going to school or work? No, and pining over Dan and Chuck pining over Blair isn't considered getting a life.

@hexadesmal Eww, they're step siblings.
@whateva No, it wouldn't. She cheated on him when they were engaged, she'll most likely do it again after they got married. She only married him to be a princess. Blair caused all of the drama and she was the one who humiliated him at the wedding. She forgave Chuck, even after the whole hotel incident and after almost being punched in the face, not to mention sleeping with Jenny. Blair has been more than forgiving. Serena does fall in love easily, she doesn't pronounce as much and as obnoxiously as Blair has, but Serena has been around, she even became Tripp's mistress. Georgina is pathetic, she has a family and now she's resorting to doing the same crap over and over again when the plot demands her to. It doesn't help when all of the so-called revelations become utterly pointless. No, Dan/Blair is not George/Izzie, George and Izzie only had a 1 time stand and the same with George and Meredith, Dan and Blair have a relationship.

The only thing in character is Blair is looking for another easy relationship which is Dan. I would have given Dair a chance had they been written properly and not with this shit as they share same tastes, cause last time I check Chuck shared the same tastes according past seasons so when this became not true and Dan's been there for her the whole time, um of course Dan's been there because he has no life other than be up Blair's butt being her hero and Chuck has been kept away by contrive circumstances.

@latinlover
Blair did get upset about Eva cause Blair doesn't want Chuck to ever have serious relationships, so she sabotage it. If Chuck got another serious relationship and pretty much puts her in the situation he has been in all year as she has not been put in that situation because in the Eva thing he chose her. The Raina part, that wasn't even serious and Blair was suppose to be about her career, what happen to that? Blair is completely regressed as a character and lost backbone while no I don't want high school Blair back, I do want the spunk she had in high school back which is what most people are talking about as her actions are actually pretty high school Blair.

@tarra but blair forgive dan for that

February 28th, 2012 6:35 PM
Also we all know as much as Blair claims to be mature and stuff...she gets upset whenever it looks like Chuck is actually serious about someone who is not her, cause she has become person that she wants Chuck to wait for her and it would serve her right if Chuck meets a girl who pretty much what Blair should have become and not this fickle damsel horrible clothes wearing stupid version of Blair, proposes to this chick and actually marries her while Blair continues on with her George and Izzie romance (btw even Heigl hated them as a couple) until she gets bored and wants to screw someone and Dan dumps her. Because you know the Hump has do the dumping and of course the chick because batshit crazy over him.

February 28th, 2012 6:33 PM
@soweird
I actually agree about this. She jumped down Chuck's throat when she thought he did it but Dan is forgiven for doing it. It makes no sense because Louis and her would have been fine had that video not been sent and she would not be in this mess (while technically she would not be in this mess had she said no to guy she barely knew but I digress) and he puts it on Chuck and he get off for it. I noticed that Humphrey siblings do get off for doing dirt too easily.
And while Serena is a fickle woman about love she didn't go around pronouncing undying love to every guy (something Blair and Dan have in common).

really discussed with the Dair situation. He is unworthy he belongs with Serena because he wants to be part of the upper east side crowd. He has become them. Blair needs to go back to Mr. Bass. He is a highly coveted man and she is the envy of all the upper east girls (Serena you just have hair and legs that it)I need Chair back together scheming to take down Georgina and put her back in the suburbs where she belongs. Right now she is the personification of what Blair should be doing instead of moping around. Manipulate,lie,plan and scheme

@soweird The show hasn't made sense in a long time, and now you're just realizing that.
Blair destroyed her own marriage, she cheated/lied/humiliated Louis, her entire relationship was a shame, she chose to be in a loveless marriage so she can have the princess title, she foolishly signed a pre-nup without reading it properly and knowing all the details.
Blair can proclaim her love as many times as she wants, that doesn't make her any less disingenuous.
She forgave Dan for the video and she forgave Chuck plenty of times like the last episode where Georgina apparently tricked him into bankrupting the Waldorfs.
Serena: Congratulations, you've officially joined the dark side.
