1. Gossip Girl Season Finale Review: The More Things Change ...

   5/15/2012 8:41 AM
   
   Finally Blair and Chuck back together. With them learning from their mistakes. I'm glad Blair knows Bass enough to know he doesn't mean what he says and that his father has a bad influence. I'm glad she fight for him. I want them fighting side by side. Finally no more Dan. What I don't understand is the reaction of Serena. Why is she going back to her old habits.

2. Who should Blair be with on Gossip Girl?

   Chuck of course ;)

3. Gossip Girl Episode Synopsis: "Raiders of the Lost Art"

   Yeyyy! A good news for once. I might watch this episode. I'll probably be a bit lost with the storyline because I havn't watched the show for ages, but just see a bit af NJBC in action without Dan around might bring me back to good old GG time again :)
   So it's going to be on tv the 30th April, am I right?

   Reading about what gossip girl has become just disgusts me so much.

5. Who Will Die on Gossip Girl?

   2/8/2012 4:54 PM
   
   Dan will die :)
   
   Whoops sorry, I'm dreaming too loud...
   
   It will probably be Cece. She wasn't feeling well in one of the episode before the winter break. I don't know if it is still the case in the last episodes since the show returned, but I guess a soap opera needs some more tears to make up for the lack of good plot. And Cece would be the perfect tool for that.

6. Gossip Girl Photos: Dair in "Crazy, Cupid Love"?

   2/4/2012 7:50 PM
   
   Coming back to see if I was right to stop watching gossip girl since the winter break, I find that I am happy with my decision when I read this article. What they are doing to Blair's character is nonsense. Dan is a coward, an arrogant and pathetic suiter. How could she fall so low? Sad ending for a show who used to be so fun to watch.

8. Gossip Girl Spoilers: Dan's Feelings For Blair ...

   1/5/2012 6:47 PM
   
   I feel bad to say that but I'm losing interest in gossip girl. I'm just fed up with this Dair teasing. I just wish writers will not go this way. They waste the show. I'm disappointed. I have barely thought about GG and coming here to read the news during these holidays. If we keep getting spoilers about Dair and teasing about it rather than having Blair with someone else or Chuck, I won't even bother watch the entire second half of the season. At least I won't have to watch puppy face playing ghostwriter. Let's hope Blair will know better than to fall for that.

9. Major Blair-Louis Scene Ahead on Gossip Girl, But ...

   12/20/2011 3:57 PM
   
   Chair are made for each other, always have, always will. But if the writers want to make her date another guy, I'm in! s long as he is a guy who has charisma, nice hair and a style that matches Blair's, who is not complaining nor being jugmental and who doesn't have an annoying family... which basically means neither Louis nor Dan.
   Well ok, let's just stick to Chuck ;)

12. Gossip Girl Round Table: "Riding in Town Cars With Boys"

    12/7/2011 6:15 PM
    
    @Jonas: Like I said, I'm not watching the show to find something I'd do in real life. I want some romance that is excessive, passionate, sometime pushed far in terms of emotions, where reason is not always coming back to say : "be careful, this is not healthy". Knowing myself and the fact that I have a pretty healthy mind (I hope at least), I wouldn't fall for a Chuck Bass in real life. What I like in the show is that Chuck was crossing many lines in the begining which really made me laugh (appart from the almost rape scene with Jenny that I found disgusting). When he ended up with Blair I fell in love with their chemistry, with the fact that they were both flawed but somehow they understood each other better than anyone else, without judgement. We could also see another side of Chuck, which was also very pleasant. That's why in my opinion, they are for each other. They've grown together, they've learnt from some of their mistakes, but remains unperfect. I love the fact that he accepts to care about a child who he is not going to his biologically (well, anyway the baby will die but still but it could have been an awesome storyline...). And above all, Blair and him always come back to each other. I like to read or watch about this crazy kind of love where the reason that we all have to protect us in real life doesn't work anymore in fiction. I f I remember well, there is a French autor that explains his friendship with another man by saying: "because it was him, and because it was me". No need for further explanation. Here I like to think the same for Chair' love for each other. That's probably why every other guy for Blair will pale against that. And writers have made Blair and Chuck evolve in a romanticized way despite the horrible things they did to each other and that's probably why I'm falling for it when I would have never accepted Chuck's ways in real life. There is a passion that is insane, but that I like to watch. If I wanted something reasonable, I would turn off GG right away, and just live my life instead of focusing on a show for one hour. Beside writers make us witness not only a side of the characters but also their good and bad behaviour. And since I'm looking for something strong, intense in this show, Blair and Chuck are totally bringing that for me. That doesn't mean that when Chuck traded Blair for an hotel I was cheering: "yeah! keep going Baby! I'll forgive you anyway!". And somehow I'm fed up to be taugh by those who don't like Chuck that I'm stupid to still like him, that I'm blind, etc... I always criticize Dan, and Dan with Blair, or the writers, but never I blame their fans because they like them together. So some of these fans should maybe think twice and stop pointing at those "chukistans" like I've read many time, because they are not exactly clean either in matter of behaviour. And why am I not liking Dan in the show? It was ok at the begining of S1, because I thought it was nice to have his outsider's view, someone which didn't fit in this whole UES thing like the others, etc... but soon after I found him a bit boring. I like his intellectual side and I like that he was a total oponant to Blair and Chuck at the begining. That was delicious. Now, he has lost his outsider charm and has no right to give lessons like he does. When I think about what he wrote about Rufus, I just think it's lame. The whole plot where he is sleeping with his teacher was kind of weird. The way he treated Vanessa was harsh. He has been judgmental with Blair but most of all with Serena (not that much with Chuck this season surprisingly). And his book reveals so much about his personnality. Because of all that I started to find him unatractive since S1 and more and more by the seasons, to the point that I am physically allergic to him now. And the agravating factor is the fact that he lusts after Blair now and the writers try to make us believe that it has been lasting for 4 years. I don't see any appeal in him with Blair, at all. If you had asked me from the very begining who I didn't see with Blair, I would have said Dan among the list of a few others. Ok, they are both the intellectual characters of the show and they physically interact since Dan has become very unexpectedly the White Knight and the shoulder to cry on, but appart from that I see nothing in common. I just see a juicy SL for the writers who try to make it work. And it work for some people. I'm just not part of it. I'm just sorry the writers made it this way. I don't like Dan by himself, and I don't like the fact that he is going to be paired with Blair. I think he has been a total douche to Serena. He used to put her above any other women, so I don't buy such a mean reaction toward her, even if Serena can be a very annoying and silly girl. Before I thought they could still be possible, no I don't think so. She deserves better. Whow, I have to stop writing, this is way too long... sorry, I was in a mood for debate today! I just hope next episode won't be too negative.

13. Gossip Girl Round Table: "Riding in Town Cars With Boys"

    12/7/2011 9:38 AM
    
    @Joans: Oh don't bother be sad for me. You can also keep your despise. I just gave my opinion, and you don't have to agree with mine. As far as Chuck is concerned: he is selfish, self destructing and he can be a total jerk. I was shocked by him trading Blair for an hotel and I think writers crossed a line with this SL. I would never liked such a guy in real life, and rather go for a Humphrey kind of guy, although his judgmental behaviour, unattractiveness and too much sweetness would stop me. But I like the intellectual background of Dan. Then why do I like Chuck rather than Dan? Because it's a show, I like to see something different than what I run for in my own life, because Chuck has evolved and I like him for his improvement, and because I think that he is the best fit for Blair in many ways. They're both flawed, they need each other and above all they love each other, in a very strong and sometimes twisted kind of way. I like to watch their imperfect love rather than knowing that Blair has gone to a movie with sweet Dan (something that I do myself perfectly without having to turn on my TV to watch a fictional couple do it). So yes, I want Chuck to be endgame. And if he is not, I'm fine with another guy, as long as he has charisma and he is flawed enough to fit with Blair and handle her, as long as he is not M. Goodie or White knight and as he is not Nate or Dan. I had hopes in Louis, but it was before we learnt he was a no-personnality kind of guy. Here see, I'm not that a horrible Chuck fan. I'm just annoyed by the show at the moment, thus my bitter and cynical post earlier. How flawed and horrible I am ! See I can't be for a Dan Humphrey ;p

14. Gossip Girl Round Table: "Riding in Town Cars With Boys"

    12/7/2011 7:19 AM
    
    Not only the show has become annoying with forcing Dan on our sight (Dan helping Blair, Dan helping Chuck, Dan making puppy eyes because Blair doesn't return his love, Dan O great Dan 'sacrificing' himself ... by the way, have you noticed how terrible Dan felt after in hospital? No hum? Me neither, indeed. Quite calm for someone who is in love with a woman who just had a car accident....) and is likely to keep doing so. Second half of the season we'll get Dan by her bedside, Dan supporting her with Chuck and being a good knight, and then Dan telling is feeling frankly, Dan sleeping with Blair (will she still be Blair if she goes that far in the degradation process, I'm wondering), Dan this and Dan that...
    I'm becoming Dan allergic. Last time I was like that was when he was screwing his teacher. This guy is really a dream killer. And come on! Dan the man?! Where? how? Should I be the one to qualify him, I'd rather use: whiny, judgmental, insanely curly, small with a tiny frame. The only positive thing is his intellectual mind. When I think manly, I certainly don't think about Dan. Nate is too much of a pretty boy to be really manly either, but if there is a manly attitude between this two for this episode, I'd say Nate stole the title (and him in a suit is sexy and his moral behaviour gives the impression he has brain cells).
    
    Beside, another thing makes me jump while reading this roundtable: when Chuck put Blair's happiness first and step back so she can have her fairytale with Louis, everyone says it's bad, that he gives up on Blair and so one, and when Brooklyn acts like Chuck (how to give some epicness to Louis by making him a lame copycat of Bass) by steping back he is a gentleman?!!! Actually I'd like him to profess his love to Blair and I really expect her to smash him by a witty answer like "when are u going to get it: there is no us". That would make my day.
    
    The more I'm thinking about this episode, the bitter I am. It was absolutely great (Lily and Chuck, Chuk and Blair, Rufus and Chivy (because if I don't like his spawn, I really like Rufus, the waffle maker. He is probably the only Humphrey who is bearable to watch), Diana and the dear Jack, Nate in command of the spectator) appart from the brooklyn scenes and the crash (how many crashes already in this show since Daddy Bass started the cycle?).
    
    We're now going toward a real soap. Especially with the baby loss and the potential amnesia or whatever is going to happen to Chair... It's a pitty. What scares me is that writers seem determined to go til a S6. And I honestly wonder what they are going to put in it. Oh sorry I forgot: Dair with a jealous Serena of course! it's new, it's sweet, healthy, grown up, they have such an intellectual connexion, etc.... How great! what a good reason to watch, I really feel better now...
    
    As far as Chair is concerned, it won't last because writers are not that generous. They had material to explore with Blair and Chuck in couple raising a child who is not from Chuck. They could have work on some interesting issues. We'll get our ending with Louis in a few episode, then Blair will, for some insane reason, go out with Dan around mid second half of the season. We'll call that the lost period. Oh and Chuck will go out with Serena because if the show has to go in a wall, let's just do it properly after all. If the show survives to that and the cheapening of Blair character for a relationship that can't compare a tiny bit to the strengh of the unperfect yet amazing love she shares with Chuck, then maybe they'll have an epiphany and we'll have some worthy ending.
    
    I sound very pessimistic and bitter and long. It's a first because I usually have rather positive review, but I'm a bit fed up with the writers teasing us like this and using such useless strings to trigger the drama.

15. Gossip Girl Return Promo: Let Him Live!

    12/6/2011 12:56 PM
    
    This episode was interesting, but I'm a bit bitter because:
    
    - 1) We were granted with a Chair reunion (finally!), very well played and full of emotions. They really are appart in this show. But it was a goodness granted just to be once again teased and left on the side of the road with the feeling that this amazing moment won't last.
    
    - 2) Dan was as annoying as ever for me. It's funny how writers makes him act like Chuck : he helps Blair so she can be happy (totally Chuck in S5), and the scene with Serena made me thought about a totally lame copy of the scene Chuck shares with Serena at the end of 2x23. The only thought that he has feelings for Blair and pretention to tell her for a moment is just gross. We can grant him the fact that he didn't completely screwed up by helping Chuck and Blair get together... yet. I could be happy about that if I knew it will last, but we all know that Dan is far from leaving Blair alone because writers wants to have some bone-storyline to shew on.
    
    - 3) Why a car crash again? Why Chuck hurt again? (we know he is going to survive, the Basstard must have eaten a piece of Superman in his chilhood to be so resistant to what happens to him all the time)? And this baby storyline started and killed for nothing? This is absurd. We're heading toward a soap opera kind of show with only the talent of Ed Westwick, Leighton Meester and Blake Lively to save the day. They could have made Chuck and Blair a couple, dealing with the fact they're having a baby that is not completely Chuck's. That would have been more believable than a crash, then whatever amnesia or else Chuck is going to have.
    
    The Lily and Chuck interaction was the most touching aside from Chair. I like Nate at the moment. He is getting interesting. And I think he has chemistry with Chivy.
    
    I'm keeping fingers crossed for the second half of the season, but I can't prevent from feeling I'm going to be disappointed by the writers' choice. I don't know what is going to happen. The only thing which is sure is that I won't be there to watch the boat sink if it does.

    Oh, and don't they dare to use the amnesia lame plot! That would be bulshit!

17. Gossip Girl Review: A Princess in Peril

    12/6/2011 7:58 AM
    
    @kara: yes, but Chuck is entitled to act like that whereas Dan is not fiting with Blair. I want him to end alone, because I've never liked him. And the fact that he is now invovled in a plot with Blair since S4 is really unappealing to me. That's probably why I would/will stop watching if they go further down that road in the second half of the season. But you're free to think otherwise. That's just my opinion.
    
    I agee with pty, this show is more and more like a telenovela. It's a shame because it used to be more consistant.
    
    I wish they could put Blair and Chuck together and then work on another SL with them as a couple. There are so many things to explore rather than saving their reunion till the very end and just teasing us like this. I found that Chuck raising Blair's child like if it was his would have been a very good thread to work on. Unfortunately, they spoiled this baby SL to the point that it makes no sens to have created it in the first place.

18. Gossip Girl Review: A Princess in Peril

    12/6/2011 6:02 AM
    
    Pros of this episode:
    - Nate finally having more interest. I really liked him in this one.
    - Ivy revealing her true self to Rufus. Finally some truth! I wonder what's going to happen, what he is going to do with that.
    - Starting the war with GG again. I love when she comes at the centre of the SL again.
    - Blair and Chuck scenes, especially at the end were amazing because of the amount of emotions these two can play. Chuck saying to Blair he'll love her baby as much as her and her telling him he is the one is the best part.
    - Jack Bass is coming back.
    - Lily and Chuck interaction was amazing. I love Lily. She accepts Chuck for what he is. Like Blair.
    
    Cons:
    - Dan. I don't care if he helped or not Blair. Writers will make him come back in the picture anyway, as this review tries topraise him a bit too much in my opinion. I'm sure they will make him take advantage of the situation Blair and Chucl are in, and he will feel the need to play the knight and save a desperate Blair. I really can't stand him for that matter. I'm glad Blair doesn't reciprocate anything else than friendship.
    - Max. I used to like his appearance but now he is a bit useless.
    - Same for Louis this episode.
    - The car crash: why do writers have to do something like this to Blair and Chuck every single time they finally get together. I would have loved to see them together, being a couple again. It could have been interesting with the baby who is not Chuck storyline. Instead Chuck is hurt again, Blair will be desperate and they will find a way to drive them away again, making Dan or any other plot stand in their way. Beside, why make Blair pregnant in the first place? They barely used this SL.
    - Serena: I like her but she has to find someone else than Dan. She's worth better than that.
    
    I hope the writers won't screw up the second part of the season like S4.

20. Dan and Blair: Moving in Together on Gossip Girl!

    11/30/2011 8:48 PM
    
    This is a sad news. But is there a way to stop writers from doing Dair and going right into a wall? I wish there was but I think they're going to rub it in our face for the next half of the season. I won't be there to watch the show being srewed up with if it goes down that road.

21. Gossip Girl Review: Rhodes to Nowhere

    11/29/2011 7:57 PM
    
    Well, after last week episode, this one was a bit slower. But still, I was good with the Chair scenes (I'm just mad they never showed what happened after the end of last episode). I just wish they can get back together fully and be some powerful couple doing naughty things in New York. We could finally see them in an lighter mode and have a Blair which once agan focuses on what she wants to become appart from a wife. Chuck would totally support her. They are so much in love, and it's obvious, it's painfull to see them still appart.
    
    I must said I enjoyed the Ivy storyline. Although I want it to move on a little bit. Serena wasn't enough on the front this time.
    
    Nate was nice in this one. I like to see him man up without Diana dicating him when he should write or when he should have sex with her.
    
    I'm quite anxious about next episode, and well next half of the season. I just fear that once again, we'll get a tiny taste of the desert (Chuck and Blair deciding to get together again during the wonderful limo scene...) but it will all be crushed by the accident and what happens then. My fear is that second half of the season will turn into a 4x11 - 4x18 all over again, which means, that writers will feel the need to throw Dan into Blair's life again, then we'll be force to bear watching whinny boy telling is feeling to Blair and making her doubt (because she's fragile after loosing her baby, blame chuck or god knows what lame excuse will be found). Then two solutions: we finally get an good ending revolving around Blair and Chuck coming back together for good, with Nate and Serena around. Or, we have to go through a S6 (I wouldn't have wished or bet on that but apparently the writers seems confident it's going to another season.
    
    I'm still watching the show. But, please writers don't screw up. Two much confusion, dropped storylines and drama kills the drama. And too much Dair + not enough of the core characters interacting together kills the show, at least for me.

22. Gossip Girl Round Table: "All the Pretty Sources"

    11/22/2011 4:55 PM
    
    Nice roundtable! I think we are lot to agree that this episode was a good one.
    
    1. My favorite quote... Hum hard to say. Chuck's ones are always good, especially when he made fun of Dan's hair.
    2. Whow, if someone told me I would have though Humphrey tolerable one day, I would have laughed. Chuck really makes Dan watchable. Their best scene was the Matrix one with Dan being his annoying self but with Chuck's comments that turned the moment into gold.
    3. Well, by starting to be a bad guy, Louis is kind of redeeming himself for me because he has earn a tiny percent of charisma. I really expected more from this character, a real challenge for Chuck, someone with guts... turns out that he has been a tasteless, colourless prince. So much wasted potential...
    4. Lol... well I still hope that there will be a strong storyline behind that. It could be a good occasion for him to test his limits, what he would and wouldn't do to succeed and thus see if he is as opportunist and selfish than the other members of his family.
    5. I'll settle for Dan's hair getting cut... with a lawnmower because clippers won't be enough for such a giant curly wig. Even Monkey doesn't look like such a hairy jungle. And he is way cuter.
    6. Definitely Max turning from harmless to extorsionist from one scene to another... another weirdo is in town!
    7. Au menu: Blair still realising that Chuck is getting better and being in denial about her wedding and the fact that what she really wants deep down is a chairytale; writers forcing Dan and Blair step by step on those who don't wish it happens in order to settle the second part of the season which will be all about that, Ivy being exposed as Charlie (or the otherway around...I'm a bit confused) to at least another character; producers still not realising that there is no need for a S6 and that focusing on quality is now more important than focusing on quantity.

23. Gossip Girl 100th Episode Spoilers: Cast Dishes on Milestone Event

    11/21/2011 6:42 PM
    
    @pty: Me too. I was thinking watching to this wedding episode and then see how I am feeling toward the show. But since I think it's a show and thus there are more important things in life to be upset for, I'll just quit it if it gets on my nerves more than I enjoy watching it.
    
    @Sophie: You're probably the wisest in your comment. But I remain too allergic to Dan - and Dan and Blair for that matter - to share your wisedom :)
    
    Another thing is bothering me: I still don't understand the choices writers make for Nate. He could have had way more storylines. He's the only one who doesn't have a direction. We know Chuck wants to deal with his dark side and improve, that Blair wants her fairytale although she still has to figure what it really is (a life with a certain dark prince maybe...), and Serena wants to be more than a pretty blonde and finds her goals in life. Nate? Who can tell where he is going? Him being involved in the scheme of Diana is a good start, but it could be better exploited because for now he has been reduced to Diana's lover and puppet. I'd like him to realise something is up and retaliate. That would be a good occasion to see him man up and be less naive. And also a good opportunity to bring back together our four members of the NJBC.

24. Gossip Girl 100th Episode Spoilers: Cast Dishes on Milestone Event

    11/21/2011 12:39 PM
    
    @pty: I really agree with your point of view. I think it's the first time I feel like I don't want a show I enjoy watching to go for another season.
    
    And when I read the comments of Leighton and Penn about Dan and Blair, I'm thinking I should just give up on the show right now, and save myself from being upset every episode and losing energy and time watching something I don't want to see happening. A show is suppose to be entertaining. If it gets me upset for something which at the end is just fictional, then maybe it's really time to quit.

25. Gossip Girl Photo Preview: "Riding in Town Cars With Boys"

    11/19/2011 8:03 PM
    
    The scenes are not necessarily different in the two pictures. And who says that the candles are not lit with Blair and Chuck since the two pictures are not taken exactly with the same distance and view. The candles might still be there but we can't see it because they're not part of the frame of the picture.
    
    @CHAIR : I totally agree with your analyse. I've long wondered why, since I was disappointed by Chuck's behaviour like every girl after watching S3, I had not been touch by Dan and Blair scenes in S4 and the potentiality of a romance between them. It turns out that I have been quite annoyed with it from the very begining, even when romance wasn't suggested. I could foresee interaction between those too only because of Serena and I really enjoyed Blair being a bitch to Dan because they weren't form the same world. As soon as it stoped, I lost interest in their rare interaction.
    Appart from the fact that I like Chair (I know anyway that some Dair fans will say that I'm wrong because I'm too much into Chair, but anyway, I try to stay as objective as I can here), there is this huge reason why I don't buy Dan and Blair in a relationship: they don't match at all. Ok they have some friendly banter and a taste for the same movies and Dan is playing the heroe like he always does. But that's it. Let's imagine for a minute that Blair loses a little bit of herself and agrees to reciprocate Dan's feelings (this point would be very out of character already), I don't see the relationship going on because Dan expects Blair to change like Nate expected her to do so. And the fans who like Dair are the same. They expect something from Blair, some kind of maturing that has its limit because she can't completely change who she is. And I was suprised to see how Dair fans were so against Blair's attitude on last episode. She looked like more to her old self. The bitchy one. This what she is. She can be more mature and it's fortunate that she's grown, but being bitchy and acting silly like she did with Chuck in the last episode is totally what she is. And this kind of behaviour which is part of her is something that Dan will never accept. He rejected Serena for what she represented but most of all because of how she acted. Imagine when Dan will open his eyes and realise, after a few times that Blair often goes crazy/bitchy or does something to him to serve her own interest, his reaction won't be positive and he will reject that. Or, he will ask her to change, and he will play the arrogant guy who give lessons to everyone like he always has because it is his nature. And Blair won't be happy, she will suffer from that.
    So far and even if he has been a royal dic***, Chuck is the only one (and it is still true in the last episode) who accept Blair with her good sides and her flaws. He doesn't try to change her, and he loves her exactly for what she is. And their connexion for the last 5 seasons have been so strong. They said it themselve at the end of S4: they will always love each other. I think this is just the answer to what is going to happen eventually. Blair will go back to Chuck and Chuck will try to get her back. I like them flawed, they fit this way. It's also what they are so interesting and lot of people fall in love with them in the first place. They've grown together, hurt and loved each other til the extreme and eventually they will find their way back because they are the only one for each other. No matter how many Eva, Dan, or any other fling they have, no matter he they think they love someone else, in the end, they always find their way back to each other. It's in their character. On contrary Blair ending with Dan Humphrey and turning into a complete good girl falling for the outsider who takes her to the movies and who give her some banter and a shoulder to cry from time to time since half a seaons, it's just not storyline that is OOC and not in accordance with what GG is. Or otherwise the writers forgot to tell us that the show ended mid-season 4 and they've started a complete new show since then but as far as I know were still in GG and Blair Waldorf is still Blair Waldorf.
