  1. The Secret Circle Review: That Old Black Magic

    4/8/2012 10:43 PM
    Seriously I would watch this show even more if it was just about Faye, Melissa, and Diana. I loved Adam hanging with the two girls, Faye is such an awesome character. Diana went to the top of the list when she told Cassie off for being so dramatic. I cannot stand Cassie (or Jake). I feel like she is always on the hunt by herself in every episode while the rest of the circle has fun and is actually entertaining and intriguing.

    Can't wait for the parents to come back into play with JB. And more scenes with the entire circle, stop focusing so much on Cassie!

  2. Fringe Review: Make Way For A Different Happy Ending

    So upset about AltLincoln, I mean to me he was the real Lincoln, cute, confident, and I loved Alt-Livia and him together. This season's 'real' Lincoln doesn't even come close to comparing to me. I would have rather seen Peter go over to the other side since he could have debriefed them on Jones and seen AltLincoln, AltLivia, and Peter interact.

    Gah, I'm seriously pissed they did this. I love the alternate universe, but I really want them to wrap up Peter's being erased from existence SL, because I'm still wondering if the rest of the characters will remember Peter and then start to remember their old lives? Will Altlivia ever remember having a child? Since Olivia is forgetting this life more and more, will we have just wasted this entire season trying to invest in new personalities and histories of our main characters?

    I will miss AltLincoln the most!

  3. Gossip Girl Review: World War Waldorf

    2/27/2012 10:47 PM
    Apart from loving the Dan and Blair, this show was full of ridiculousness tonight.
    Ivy spends time caring for CeCe (who didn't tell anyone else she was sick) and CeCe doesn't even allow her own daughter to keep her house?
    And Lily and Rufus just leave willingly, without so much of a my furniture? my belongings? Because surely it would take much longer to pack up all of the stuff she has bought with her trust and what not and shouldn't want to leave it with a 'criminal' when she followed her sister around making sure her silver wasn't stolen.
    Lily and Carol were ridiculous and I agree Lola should stay far away.

    I'm glad Serena and Chuck are getting story lines because they've both been depressing to watch. And if they have to be on my tv screen I'd like for them to at least be interesting.

  4. Gossip Girl Round Table: "Cross Rhodes"

    2/21/2012 6:06 PM
    Blair has now admitted her feelings for Dan, after realizing how much he cares for her, and that in spite of the things in their way (Louis, Chuck, Serena), she can no longer pretend.
    ..Serena realizes she's really not in love with Dan, because they haven't even spent time together since S4 pre-Ben. And her and Blair now have a stronger friendship than ever. Actually liked Serena for the first time in awhile.
    Chuck is back to Basshole, knew it couldn't be long. Proving he really hasn't changed as much as he would think.
    Dan stood his ground with Blair when she tried to sweep their feelings under the rug.
    Nate was there for a pretty girl.
    All in all, for such a terrible first half, the writing is still a bit inconceivable but could be worse. Blair is married and refuses to be with Chuck but has no problem being with Dan. Which in my hopeful eyes means she's really not sure how she felt about him even before she realized her feelings for Dan.

  5. Gossip Girl Round Table: "Cross Rhodes"

    2/21/2012 6:06 PM
    I pretty much agree with Steve's answers. I really loved this episode even more than last weeks and I'll tell you why.
    I feel like all the characters are suddenly realizing they've been in a trance for the first half of the year and it's all been a eery dream. This is where the season should have started off. ....

  6. Gossip Girl Review: Winning!

    2/21/2012 12:45 AM
    But this is supposed to be a new Chuck. And after the crash, this is the first time we've seen Chuck continually proclaim his love for Blair without giving up or playing games. But it's only been three months, it's really not that long. I don't have any sympathy for him when he sleeps with Alessandra two seconds after seeing a GG post from Georgina. Even if it was true if he was really hurt shouldn't he talk to Blair about it? Or have any self control when it comes to sleeping with the next available suitor? Yes he's hurt from Blair, he's threatened by Dan, but does that mean he should get pity after using/sleeping with someone jeopardizing a woman's career and Dan's credibility as a writer? (At this point I should add he didn't know Dan sent the video).

  7. Gossip Girl Review: Winning!

    2/21/2012 12:45 AM
    I am trying to understand how people feel bad for Chuck. He has most of the time been so quick to give up on Blair, a thing in which he does apologize in the beginning of the season. I'm not saying Blair is blameless but she has been the majority when it comes to returning to Chuck asking him how he feels, telling him she loves him... cont

  8. Gossip Girl Sneak Peek: Blerena Backlash

    2/14/2012 11:39 PM
    cont. The thing that makes this season Blair so unbelievable is the Blouis relationship and the writer's making her profess her love for Chuck twice but put ridiculous obstacles in their way. They needed to end up with a Dan/Blair/Chuck triangle and they went about it a contradictory and just plain stupid way.
    But now that we are there, we can return to the reason I enjoyed the second half of season 4 so much, more Dair!

  9. Gossip Girl Sneak Peek: Blerena Backlash

    2/14/2012 11:39 PM
    Blair's relationship with Dan has evolved past high school. I can't even remember who I hated back in high school because it was always changing and you ended up becoming friends or never even seeing each other again. And Blair never actually hated Dan, they were both from opposite worlds and never took the time to get to know each other, they hated what they didn't understand. Their friendship has been the only thing shown on screen that took time and actually makes sense. Their feelings becoming more than friendship isn't out of the blue, it's been a long time coming.
    I think the Dair relationship is dead on with Blair's character. cont

  10. Gossip Girl Review: Backup Dan the Man

    2/7/2012 1:06 AM
    cont...Realistically, If Blair claims to love Chuck so much, all of these pointless obstacles would make no difference, they are not clever or reasonable at all. The writers need to wrap up this relationship or stick with it, because it's contradictory as shit. That being so, I don't feel even a slight bit of pity for Chuck. So he finally understands what it's like to be turned away for no good reason at all, big deal.

    Overall I like where Gossip Girl is headed, Dair was my favorite part of the episode, and Dorota in the closet. I just want them to close the door on Chair or whatever! So we can get back to the episodes that aren't based solely on one relationship.

  11. Gossip Girl Review: Backup Dan the Man

    2/7/2012 1:06 AM
    I don't understand why Serena is angry/surprised at Dan's non-feelings towards her. She has read the book, heard from Rufus, and from Dan himself that he has feelings for Blair. He's just supposed to drop everything because she's come to the realization that although they haven't dated since high school, he is the one for her? ...

  12. Gossip Girl 100th Episode Review: OM-GG!

    1/31/2012 12:43 AM
    ...cont.
    I just loved all the interaction with the whole cast. I would have liked to see everyone in the same room together, maybe at the breakfast, see a maid of honor/best man toast? Not a lot of Dair but I wasn't disappointed either, they didn't allow Dan to just sweep his feelings under the rug and run back to Serena, and Blair didn't just have an epiphany that she wanted Dan. Slow and steady wins the race.

  13. Gossip Girl 100th Episode Review: OM-GG!

    1/31/2012 12:43 AM
    I loved the episode, even the long excruciating scenes between Chuck and Blair because she refused him twice. Only to marry Louis which turns out he hasn't just been letting Blair walk all over him! The UES is about to take on royalty! I so hope we have the entire cast joining in on a scheme, that would make things very fun.

    A couple questions about the real Charlie. They mentioned she has met Serena and Lily before when she was younger, I'm surprised she hasn't tried to reach out to them while she's in New York. I understand Carol probably poisoned her against them but at the same time it doesn't sound like her mom is very supportive of her...

  14. Gossip Girl Review: A Princess in Peril

    12/6/2011 4:30 PM
    One of the better episodes this season by far.

    I definitely think Max tampered with the car, and Nate got in the wrong one. His driver mentioned he didn't know they were going to the airport? I love that they're bringing Jack into the Diana/Nate/Trip/Grandfather storyline. Somehow they are all connected but how? I love Nate these last few episodes too, I hope he continues to be a bigger player in the next half of the season.

    I have not cared about Chivy this entire time, but I wouldn't be surprised if her confession gets swept under the rug with a comment of being stressed out and worried about Blair and Chuck.

    Serena is so unlikeable to me. The second she gets jealous or doesn't get what she wants she turns on her friends. She did not tell Louis where Blair was for Blair's happiness, she told him so she could mess up Dan's chance of telling Blair how he feels. Dan has evolved too much to go back to Serena. When he was bringing Blair to Chuck, it seriously sucked, but at this point in time Blair loves Chuck and Dan did the right thing.

    But that leads to the next half of the season where we can hopefully put an end to the entire tri/quad/angle? that has been going on the past season. A hopeful theory is that Chuck loses his memory and during that time Blair and Dan become closer, a lot closer. And when Chuck regains his memory, Blair has to choose between Dan and Chuck (choose DAN!)
    A more likely theory, we get the exact same thing again. Blair goes back to Louis, and then leaves him for Chuck at the alter, only to have another thing separate them.

    On a happy note, Georgina will be back. And I love Georgina.

  15. New Gossip Girl Clips: The Return of Derena?

    12/5/2011 12:47 AM
    Seriously, Dan and Serena? No thank you, ship has sailed with them (only wish Chuck/Blair could do the same). After Nate's huge love obsession with Serena in the beginning, and their short lived romance, I think Serena and Nate will have a second chance. But in all seriousness... I just want Dair.

  16. Gossip Girl Review: Rhodes to Nowhere

    11/29/2011 12:15 AM
    I still disliked Sleep No More more, but this episode is very close. The winning factor being that Diana was not in it, and I feel like Nate is becoming more involved again, considering the last time he did anything worth remembering was season 3?
    This entire season just feels like a major filler to get to the 100th episode where Blair and Louis will finally be over. Because we all know it should have happened the first episode. Pointless storylines filled with Charlie/Ivy, I swear this character gets more screen time every episode!
    Dan was completely underused, it would have been nice for him to show up to be present at the Max/Ivy scene just so he could interact with other people!
    And still no Dair, this show is seriously so boring without their interaction. Even if listens to her babble on about Chuck/Louis next episode it will still be better than nothing at all.
    I have never felt any "epicness" watching Chuck/Blair, the only thing they're good at is breaking up, and hating eachother at different intervals. They were not even in a functioning relationship for that long. It's not real love, it's unhealthy infatuation and there is no growth in it whatsoever.
    Hopefully after next weeks episode we can safely say Dair is back in the picture for the rest of the season for sure as friendship, possibly as something more :).

  17. Gossip Girl Set Photos: Georgina in Black!

    11/17/2011 11:26 PM
    I love Georgina! I even love her hat because she looks so miserable/evil wearing it. We did not get to see enough of her last season finale!
    I hope she has something to do with breaking up the wedding/ exposing Diana/ get Serena to have some fun and stop being so annoying.
    All good possibilities.

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

    11/17/2011 11:22 PM
    I really hope Dan is not playing matchmaker here, even though the Duck friendship is funny, I still love the fact Chuck doesn't consider Dan a part of the UES. One of the reasons I love Dan is that he doesn't like Chuck! I'm wondering why Blair needs a blindfold? At least we get a Dair scene!

    I hope this episode isn't like last weeks where it gives us ten minutes of Blair/Dan/Chuck and 40 minutes of Ivy/Charlie.

  19. Gossip Girl Review: Behind the Masks ...

    11/15/2011 12:20 AM
    Worst episode of the season for me so far, I had no interest in Diana/Ivy/Nate stuff. It seems like another storyline just like Ben/Juliette and Raina for them to wrap up and never mention again.

    Blair and Chuck. The writers took Blair's character growth back a whole year by having her so caught up in Chuck's business. I thought it was a good start having Chuck apologize and it looked like both of them were growing up, and this episode just made it seem pointless. Whether these two are end or not, it doesn't make sense to bring them back together yet, the writers chose to keep Louis and add a baby to the mix, so I didn't get the point of this entire episode. Last season Blair realized she wanted more than Chuck, even if they had one last time together because they were scared of letting go, Chuck wanted more for her too. I would have liked to think Blair was moving on for the time being and after last week Chuck was too. But no, if Blair is moving on, Chuck is not. If Chuck is moving on, Blair is not. Don't get it!

    I wanted more Dan, I actually like the idea of having him go through a rough time. It's more real than having his first book published be a raging success. He deserves to be lost and make mistakes, although, I don't think that means he is comparable to Chuck in the least. I also miss Dan/Blair friendship, even if they aren't getting together right now, their banter is what keeps the show light and fun.

    All in all, just seemed like a filler episode to get to next week, which looks awesome!

  20. Gossip Girl Spoiler Pic: Georgina to Sabotage Blair's Wedding?

    11/10/2011 5:02 PM
    Georgina is hilarious, I'm so excited for her to come back! Her small appearance at the end of last season was great. Seriously will bring some brightness to this dull royal Blouis storyline.

  21. Gossip Girl Spoilers: Dair Feelings Rekindled?

    11/8/2011 9:26 PM
    After last night's episode I am very excited for upcoming DAIR scenes. I felt like last night should have been the closing chapter on Chair, he says he's sorry, he leaves the ring. THE END. But then again, you see pictures of Blair in therapy with Chuck, Blair and Chuck in the masks(I hope it's a dream) and I'm just wondering if the writers are once again re-writing the same exact story over again. Chuck let Blair go, and I think she's really starting to move on, and I don't believe she's in love with Chuck anymore, she still loves him, but she doesn't want to be with him. As a viewer, I think it would be way too soon for any sort of Chair to happen, Chuck still has a long way to go in recovery and becoming a normal functioning person.

    That being said I can't wait to see Dair interactions. I've never had a favorite relationship on Gossip Girl until now, I never understood the whole fascination with Chuck. My favorite scenes the last year have been Dair, they have so much in common and I really feel like I see growth from both characters when they are together. I obviously think it will be Dan have feelings return, but I hope Blair will acknowledge those feelings and after Blouis ends, maybe reciprocate them. I would love for them to just have a chance, the whole telling their families they're dating would be hilarious.
    Here's to hoping!

  23. Gossip Girl Spoilers: Will Chuck and Blair Kiss?

    10/26/2011 9:12 PM
    Hope it's a DAIR kiss. But it will be CHAIR followed by a slap. I think the writers are thinking the Chuck/Blair game needs a rest for the time being. I think this kiss will be Chuck's beginning of therapy and trying to make up for his mistakes. But I also think Blair was serious about taking his advice when he let her go and is moving on. I would love to see DAIR explored a bit further. It's fun to see Dan's admiration for Blair, their friendship was one of the biggest highlights of last season for me.
