All caught up on Gossip Girl!
So I was kind of lukewarm about the show until the last two episodes. Because that's when I finally saw the heart of the show. That's what I loved about The O.C. and that's what I was missing on this show until then. But now I believe that the characters really do care about each other and it's not just about social climbing.
And Chuck/Blair! Love them! All their evilness and the fighting . . . they truly are perfect for each other. Of course, Chuck's dad had to go and freak him out, but I'm sure they're far from over.
I also really enjoy Rufus/Lily. I don't know where I want that to go, now that's she's married, but I like them.
Dan/Serena . . . eh. I don't know. Don't hate them. Don't love them. But I'm not sure if I want either of them with anyone else, either. I actually kind of liked the idea of Nate/Vanessa . . . but I suppose that's probably the new love square. At this point, I'm not sure they could pair Chuck and Blair with anyone else, so you have to keep the drama up.
I also liked a lot of Jenny's story. I'm looking forward to seeing where she ends up next season.

The Nate/Vanessa thing was weird! But I think we'll see that again next season, since it looks like they're going in a Serena/Nate and Dan/Vanessa direction. At least, I hope those storylines don't end up being just about Dan/Serena.
