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.

Ew Nate/Vanessa! They were so random. I'd rather they use that screen time to furthering the Nate/Jenny friendship.

I generally liked the show but was completely in awe when they started the Serena story. Then I got disappointed because it was such an anti-climax. Oh, and Rufus/Lily are cute :)

Heh. Chuck/Blair!!

I liked Nate/Vanessa together.Shame that they broke it off.

I liked the Nate/Jenny friendship, too! (And I did wish that had gotten more time.) Basically, I liked Nate away from Blair and his family stuff, which didn't really work for me.

I loved how Blair, Chuck and Nate were so there for her! Yeah, it was kind of an anti-climax, but I didn't think Serena would really kill someone. (Blair, maybe, but not Serena. ;)

I watched something like 1 1/2 episodes in the fall and wasn't really into it, but it definitely got better as the series went on! :)

Yeah, I think Lily/Rufus will be together in the end. And I do like the Chuck and Serena as step-siblings dynamic, so I can wait.

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.

Hee!

Yeah, hopefully they'll get back to Nate/Vanessa at some point. :)

Yeah,maybe. We won't know until season 2 starts.
