1) this episode could have been left on the writers floor as with the series opener. i am so so so so so so disappointed with this series! i thought the reinstatement of the original writers was going to save the show that we all have grown to love. however i was sadly sold a dream and they have continued where series 5 left off. the characters have morphed into puppets that have no story, even the actors are bored of the show as you can see through all the scenes.
2) bart's role in the show should have been wrapped up in the series opener, charles should have regained the empire by now so that we can progress! HELLO WRITERS THIS IS A SHORT SERIES TO END THE SHOW GET WITH IT!!!!!

I'm liking Chucks story because I never like Bart Bass and I'm hoping that the writers have thought of something very plausible for his mystery that will get solved by ep 10.
I've always known Blair will take over for her mother and her story of coming into her own will be very awesome. Its just that they really need her to mature and stop scheming and imploding in this way. Its been done before and this time it wasn't even funny. There is no growth in that part of her character.

The only stories worth anything in this final season belong to Chuck and Blair. Everything else is so dumb and stupid. All the Dan and Serena fans can hate as much as they want but I am now over Dan and Serena completely.
Dan is an A-Hole douche with a humongous chip on his shoulder. So he lost out on the girl he loved. He knew all along that Blair loved Chuck yet he decided that he'll expose everyone in his book just because he lives in a world where Chuck Bass gets the girl. He is pathetic. Jenny did despicable things and the choice to move was hers after she saw what her choices cost people. Not to mention she posted that pic of Serena and him in season 3.
As for Serena, the writers just do the same thing over and over and over again. Find someone for her and then write in some plot device that will break her and her beau up and then watch her spiral yet again. Its ridiculous!

Had so much laugh with this episode especially with Nelly Yuki and Blair's supposed interview. Fun episode.

So many of the comments on here are from bitter Dair fans. Just get over it and don't watch if you're not enjoying the show. I personally believe the time has come to farewell our favourite UES and will miss every single one of them and their intricacies. I don't like the guest stars and find them a waste of time. I cannot wait for CB's wedding because this thread has been the binding force of GG.

The biggest mistake this show ever made was bringing Bart back.
He is such a pointless and predictable character, plus Robert John Burke is a terrible actor who makes Ed Westwick (who's a pretty bad actor himself) look like Marlon Brando in comparison.
Sage is clearly an attempt to bring back a character like Jenny, which seems like a strange thing for the writers to do.
Everything Dan said about Chuck to Nate was completely true. Chuck deserves nothing but Blair also doesn't deserve anything either. She's still an immature teenager who has scheme to get everything she wants. The way she was treating Nelly Yuki was despicable and again displays that she is the most shallow, selfish character on the show.
My favourite character Dan's new "I don't give a f**k" attitude is entertaining but I wish we could go back to innocent Dan from season one and Georgina provided some humour once again. I loved her watching Dan while he slept.

I feel like Sage is the producers' attempt to bring Jenny back in another person's body. She has all the spunk and guts and f-you attitude. Also combined with some of Blair's mischievous tendencies.
Now is it sad that I find Sage so much more interesting than Blair? At this point the writers have regressed the main characters so much that I find myself rooting for the guest stars.
Also, every single scene with Bart felt ridiculously forced and boring. Do Bass men really have to speak in whispers? And really, who cares about Lily and Bart? Lily's fallen from grace a long time ago and became irrelevant even earlier than that. Let's focus on Nate and Dan's scandalous deal to bring the UES down, please?

I'm only interested in one episode and that's the discovery of gossip girl. This episode was pointless, it could have been summed up in a half hour. Dans hair style and hairy chest annoy me. Blaire I hope grows up. Rufus can move away with Ivy for all I care. Nate....i hope he finds true love. Not with a married woman, not a friend, and not a 17yr old. Who happens to be the daughter of the man his ex "love" is intensely dating!!! Chuck should just take his inheritance or whatever cash he has and build an his own empire with his only love. Oh and Dans sister, Jenny, should come back for a few episodes. THAT would make me a happy camper.

Omg i dont what are the writters doing... That story with C and B about being together but apart cause they cant be together its getting me sick. That happens every season, its boring. For real,I was a chair mega fan but now i dont care if they end up with other people (i hope so). The writters and producers only care about not letting chair fans down. I dont feel a reason for chair anymore

Lol, character growth my arse. I have a hard time actually taking these reviews seriously.
Any character growth was negated a long time ago, both in the 5x24 episode which was an utter shitfest (unless you happen to ship Chair and be lenient on believability) and even earlier in season 4. When Blair decided to marry Louis, thus relinquishing her desire to become her own woman, she regressed ten steps back (which was furthermore reinforced by the season 5 events) and when Chuck let go of Eva, he returned to the same sleazy, ignoble guy he was. When Serena stopped working on herself, going back to drugs and stealing Blair's boyfriends, the show just as well shoved her back to season 1.
This isn't character growth, or them becoming adults. This is the GG writers' poor amends for destroying all that they had built for drama's sake (and pleasing the rabid fans). They're creating the illusion that our characters are going somewhere and have goals but in the end, the season 1 dynamics of t

It was a decent episode but still don't get why Dan still longing for Blair..like the way he looked at her at serenas party?? I mean there only 8 episodes left like really? How are they supposed to turn in it around to get him And Serena together again..that will seem so forced. I'm also not seeing Serena w Nate either so are the writers just planning on leaving Serena w a guest star? Hmm..and I don't see at this point Blair and Dan ending up together either for sure..that would be rushed and she looked even more flakey than ever..so I for sure think that ship has sailed long gone..so why keep making Dan pin after her? Makes no sense

Loved tonights episode and I think the maturing theme of tonight's episode is perfect. This season seems like its going to be a great send off for our favorite upper east siders. And I hope all the wedding spoilers are legit!! It would be a great ending to such a wonderful show!! Can't wait to see how these next few episodes go!! :)
