I agree with belle and givememyloaf,IMO this song is way overproduced, you can barely hear her voice...
Plus it really is nothing new, i've heard tones of songs like that...
I do think she has a good voice, but just not my kind of music at all...
1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?
Dan: "Who even voted for her?" Hilarious!
Then of course chuck "I did. 150 times." My heart just melted!
2. Did Blair break up with Nate for the right reason?
Yes. Blair finally understood that a relationship without love isn't worth it no matter how perfect it looks from the outside! I, for one, find that a major breakthrough for her character!
Then of course there's the obv "i'm in love with your bff" reason, but i don't blame blair for not using it with nate, even though i found nate to be a real jerk lately i think that'd have been a little to hard on him...
3. Will Dan and Serena get together ... again?
Probably, but not to soon i hope, i like them, but the on and of thing is really tiresome...
4. What did you like most about the '80s scenes?
Carol, she was cool and i the really like the actress!
5. What did you like least about the '80s scenes?
I didn't like most of the 80s scenes, but i mostly hated the fact that it robbed the fans of a proper gg prom episode!
BONUS QUESTION: Fill in the blanks based on the CW's season finale synopsis: Blair and Chuck finally ______. Serena is shocked by ______. Georgina decides to ______. Dan, Nate, and Vanessa unknowingly ________.
Blair and Chuck finally exchange ily and get together!
Serena is shocked by what gossip girl will do to her and her friends out of revenge! (after serena declares war on her!)
Georgina decides to plot against blair for sending her to boot camp!
Dan, Nate and Vanessa unknowingly make the same travel plans for the summer either that or they meet the love child!
1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?
S: You brought Nate?
B: I'm just as flummoxed as you are. I got out at 53rd and made a run for it but he is faster than he looks
Not only the line, but the way nate shows no reaction to it!So nate!
2. How are you liking the Gabriel-Poppy financial caper story line?
No really, but i like the way it brought g back and i also like seeing chuck and blair plotting together to help serena!
3. More puzzling decision: Chuck letting go of Blair because he loves her, or Lily having Serena arrested to avoid drawing attention to the scheme?
Lily, all the way!Not only did she not make sense but IMO she was actually cruel!
Chuck never had a mother and his father has spent his whole life putting him down, of course he's completely insecure! under these circumstances who wouldn't be?
4. Biggest stretch: Serena thinking Gabriel would simply return the money, Dan overhearing everything, or the increasingly strange Kelly Rutherford pregnancy-hiding outfits?
Serena.. really, being naive is one thing but thinking your con bf will give you millions just for your pretty brown eyes is just a big no!
5. How will Chuck react to seeing Nate and Blair at the prom?
I'm actually not sure. I hope that he doesnt turn up with another girl and act like an idiot.
I think he'll be sad (he loves her!) but, judging by the spoilers, he'll actually be a good friend to b and help her win prom queen (Yay!)!
BONUS QUESTION: Are you excited for the '80s Lily flashbacks?
Not at all! i'd so rather have a normal ep., fully centered around prom...
Well, Ausiello himself said the prom ep would make chair fans really happy! So i really don't think chuck'll sabotage blair! Plus we already know she'll be queen!
I'm guessing he'll realize his plan's mean and back of, either that or the plan won't work (though i think it's the 1st one, bc otherwise blair'd still be upset and that doesn't really qualify as making chair fans really happy!LOL)
Exactly what i though nanda! Of course with chuck and blair any interaction is a big deal, bc they have such strong feelings for each other!
Can't way to see them plot!
1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?
CHUCK: "it's stupid for you to want her to be anything other than what she is"!
2. In honor of Josh Schwartz and two-thirds of our panel, what was the best Jewish humor-related part of the episode?
I though the whole dinner was hilarious! But i guess my favorite part was cyrus' mum saying "Elleonor's friends are taking during Seder.", don't really know why, i guess it reminded me of the kirsten/sandy/sandy's mum dynamic on the O.C. (which i really liked!)
3. Should Nate go to Yale or Columbia?
Neither!I'm sorry but i refuse to accept that someone who's 2nd to last in his class would get into columbia on his own!That's just a big no, no!
As for yale, if nate accepts any kind of favor from his grandfather after his speech last ep., i think i'll lose what little respect i might still have for his character!
4. Strangest plot hole: Jenny having her Monopoly date at the van der Woodsen's and not in Brooklyn, Nate staying at the rehearsal dinner after his kiss-off toast, or Serena actually thinking she's married?
Nate. All the way. To not leave right after the toast, was just stupid!
Jenny was a bit weird too (it's ok to want to escape you're embarrassing father on a 1st date, specially when you're in high school, but if said father is not even home, i really don't see how that applies...).
5. Gabriel: Intriguing or boring?
The character: boring!
The storyline: intriguing!
BONUS QUESTION: Has Blair really changed - and is being with Nate stifling the feisty, confident B we know and love?
Not in her core ("selling out" nate was a pretty good example of it), but she does act differently when she's with nate! I don't think she's actually change, i think she's faking being someone that she's not (someone nate'd actually like and not judge!)
Personally, i find the way she acts around nate to be truly annoying! Enough with clingy, insecure, needy blair! and pls make her stop talking in that baby voice...
Really want my strong and interesting blair back!
I say pls no blair and dan! IMO, it's enough couples' roulette, i mean just bc it's a small cast why does that mean they all have to hook up with each other?
I wish the show would concentrate more on the friendships and less on random hook ups...
