I do not understand how fan of Dan and Blair think that their favorites have become mature people, if they destroyed his relationship with other characters. The development of the characters in the series is inevitable, but not at the expense of the basic story that takes place. From 100. episode of either one of the main characters is not the same as it was. They are all changed, only were they left the same names and acting by the same actors. The development of the characters does not mean that they should lose all of their characteristics they had. Now this is a new series that has nothing to do with that which was to 100. episode. Again I do not understand how Dan and Blair fan believe that progress of characters is a great in the series if their favorites destroy all ties with the other characters. This series is not about Dan and Blair, but of all five characters!

Ed Westwick was AMAZING in this, especially the part where he is at the table and stands up walking out. He is the best actor on this show by miles. I loved Serena in this episode and I love her bitchy side, hopefully next episode she doesn't go back to being boring because Lola as something over her.
Blair was pretty pathetic in this, she acted like she did when she was with Louis, and I definitely see a strong parallel in the way every episode louis/blair had a fight, went separate ways, but then Louis would come to her bedroom at the end of the episode to apologize.
The only thing is I wish Blair had been there when it was revealed about Diana being Chuck's mother to see her reaction.
Absolutely loved the Nate/Chuck friendship, at least these two best friends actually hang out together unlike some...(B&S). I loved how Nate went to make sure Chuck was okay.

I don't get when people say they killed Nate, Serena, Chuck, Blair, Dan,....?
How exactly? It's called character development. Characters need to develop...do you all expect them to stay the same from pilot episode til the finale? That is stupid. Complaining about character development is really stupid.
While i'm not a dair shipper, its actually impressive that it is the ONLY couple in the show that 'developed'. It didn't just happen all of a sudden.

It is really impossible for all who support Dan and Blair think they are a couple who has 40 years of age. What is with you people. Dan and Blair have a 20-21 years, their world revolves around sex and fun. However, it seems that their fans do not like that, so they placed them if the two of them have 40 years. It is nice to have intelignetnih two people that can talk about books, art, culture, but the two of them are primarily young people who need fun and sex. If they does not doing now, when, at age 50. I think, as Ed Westvik said - writers had no a better idea than to combine Dan and Blair this season. But their relationship is really boring. But perhaps this is counterbalanced by producers to retain most of the viewers who are not like their relationship.

I agree with you. Serena needs to show her dark side, she did not do long time ago. The whole season was her role as intermediary, and she received the blows from all sides. So now she turn to herself to start to inflicts strokes. Serena needs to show that she is the Empress of UES. An she must regain the love of his life - Dan.
Its funny to see Serena talking about "Adversity". She has proven that she is brain-dead by being the stupidest GG in the history of GG. Without her family money, we all know what she would have been doing.
I was really hoping that this was the end of 'Chuck's Mommy Issues' Version 2.0, but it seems the writers are not done with it. Nate must be feeling awful that he banged his best friend's mother who is the closest thing to a family that he has. No one likes to be proven a MF. And to top that, one of his other best friend ruined his relationship and is ruining everyone close to her just because she is bored.
Why do I get a feeling that Lily and Rufus are at the end stage of their relationship? These two were so great in S1 and S2. Their characters tell the story of the decline of GG.
Saving the best for the last, thank God for Dair and their awesome awesomeness. You know the relationship is for keeps when you can talk randomness in bed. Like the original Salon couple said" They ar

The book has little to do with the series. For example, Dan's character in the book is shown as a dark guy, who likes to sit in the dark, to read a complicated books, and writing strange lyrics. Such a figure could not be shown in the series because no one will like him. Also, such a figure could not be with Serena, because in the book, Dan and Serena can not be together. They are too different. Although it is very funny and sweet as Dan in a book was in love with Serena - his hands tremble if he just think of Serena.

i absolutely loved this episode. i enjoyed every bitch moment of Serena. it's been awhile since i really did enjoy a gossip girl episode. this may not be as explosive as before but at least they tried. also, the other thing that made me enjoy it more is that dair is the background story. i mean finally, after about 90% of the season is about them, the other characters became the centerpiece of the story, at least for this night. i'm so happy for serena because she's finally growing up, it takes a lot of courage for her to admit that GG is the only thing she has. i wish she embrace the dark side at least until the season finale. because i love her bitch side. but i hate that lola has something against serena.

Yes I agree with you, I have a feeling Safran might have been bullied in school by the rich, popular kids. I also think he may have fallen for a girl who was in love with another man. And putting Dan and Blair together is like living out his dream.

You are right. Public displays of affection that are performed by Serena and Dan can not compare with what are now doing Dan and Blair. Kisses between Serena and Dan in season 1 and 2 were real fireworks of passion, lust and true love. Only to remember some scenes - in the school yard, in the Dans loft , in the Kotilion ball, on the beach, in front of the elevator and in the elevator when they saw Nate and so on. Serena and Dan are simply brilliant when they were together. Their relationship is perfect love. As for this episode, Chuck is once again prevailed. All events are about Chuck was the more important and more interesting than friends with benefits - Dan and Blair.
Did anyone notice that the people who loved the episode are DAIR fans and these Dair fans never said anything about the storyline? LOL This is proof that GG has jumped the shark and this show really needs to DIE.

@ Kokakicha: they are not situations exclusive from a friends relationship but in order for them to be believable as part of a couple's dynamic there has to be more intimacy and complicity than what we saw there. The kisses don't feel passionate enough, heck when Dan kissed Serena in season 1 he looked like he couldn't get enough of her.
I'm not alone in this, there are others who feel the same:

@Anil In the book Blair and Serena choose eachother (not sexually). However the characters all have different roles in the book then they do the show.

If this is Gossip Girl when it's "trying" then I'm frightened to see the show when they're not. I've been prepared for a potential Diana as Chuck's mom reveal all season and still can't believe they went there. Ed was good in those scenes but it's absolutely insipid and stomach churning given that Diana slept with Nate. Of course, with most "reveals" on this show, they'll probably take it back in the next episode or two. Dair is like white noise to me, they're just there in the background. The random pseudo intellectual couple randomly approaching them at lunch was lolworthy. Lola is insanely boring and Rufly basically had this argument in season 3....God, what a rehash.
This was one of GG's worst episode to date and that is really saying something. No reviewer with a shred of self-respect or any taste would give this installment 4 out of 5 stars (seriously, Steve, you have to be joking right?).

Pretty sure Nate doing Chucks mom is worse than Chuck doing Blair in Season 1.
Love DAIR together!
Seeing a normal (what could be as close to a real life relationship on this show) is so refreshing! Keep these two coming! Perfect for each other.
Serena: Congratulations, you've officially joined the dark side.
