I have a question as of the 100th episode we know that Georgina is Gossip Girl. But in the "Back Up Dan" the comment she makes about after Blair's accident and the hiatus of Gossip Girl implies that she is not the other gossip girl. but who was the orginal gossip girl then??? and why did she stop after Blair's accident?

I think it's great to see that Dan is beeing B's friend. But i don't think they should become a couple.. Blair loves chuck, and as we've seen he's a changed man. I don't think he will hurt Blair again like he has in the past if they got together.But i also think it's wierd that Dan wrote Louis vows :S I hope blair stops pushing chuck away soon because what she said in the car before the crash was real and pure

Dan is awesome and the next episode looks like comedic gold!!! Don't know if romance is in the cards for those two but whatever relationship dynamic Dair ends up with, I'll be happy so long as those two continue to get lots of screen time and future story arcs together :)

@lila get a life lol. I admire the connection between Chuck and Blair, but if what Blair wants is to be trully happy, I say Dan. See Dan won't give her heartache like Chuck. Dan will never use her as a commercial possesion like Louis. Dan will trully love Blair until ofcourse she runs off with Chuck. Just give Blair and Dan a chance, I know it won't last and probably won't be endgame, but Blair deserves to be happy, even if its for a couple of episodes or half a season. What's the point of arguing, Chuck and Blair will end up together, just not so soon, let the show go in its twists and twirls before the happy ending. Stop hating.

I'm so sick of dan and louis. dan is such a desperate loser. Blair needs to get it together and just go with Chuck because obviously she loves him. She's just scared he'll get hurt and she'll have to live without him but that's a stupid reason to be miserable!! Come on, Blair!! Poor Chuck!

Hasn't Blair been struggling with a difficult decision for the last two seasons if not more.
