Nate and Serena don’t end up together why? They have the best chemistry and the same blandly perfect gorgeousness. Everything about her is great – Michelle Trachtenberg, the costumes, the ridiculous quips.ġ8. I hated Georgina Sparks during my first watch, but god if she isn’t the best part of the show a few years removed. Why was Sage on the show as long as she was? She was worse than Jenny.ġ7. Towards the end of the series, Nate, an adult man, dates a high schooler. What happens to Georgina’s baby, Milo? I DIDN’T FORGET, GOSSIP GIRL.ġ6. ![]() And Chuck’s mom? We never find out who she is. Remember how Blair was pregnant? Yeah, just a blip on the radar here to get rid of Louis. In relation, there’s no way Dan is Gossip Girl. Why wasn’t Dorota Gossip Girl? Really, no alternative makes sense to me.ġ4. And Dan constantly referencing “Graydon” as in Graydon Carter towards the end of the series makes me laugh every time.ġ2. All of the literary namedropping – there’s no way Vanessa is taking a class from Sam Shepard. No one talks about it anymore, not even pretentious Dan.ġ1. The whole show revolves around these people going to college, but slowly college just … stops. They tried really hard to make Bing happen for awhile. On a show full of Worsts! (Except you, Nate, you’re flawless.)ĩ. Jessica Szhor, I’m sure you’re lovely but god, Vanessa was The. She grew up on a commune and referenced it in every single episode. Did ANYONE like Vanessa? Her father was named Arlo. If I were Serena, Rufus would have made me start locking my doors.Ĩ. Either way, watching Gossip Girl now I peg him for a huge weirdo. Isn’t there something deeply unsettling about Rufus Humphrey? Maybe it’s the necklaces. Also, when Bart dies and comes back, Lily’s just like, “Oh, OK, guess I’m back with you now! Sorry Rufus! Sorry Billy Baldwin! My bad, evil dead husband is back!”ħ. Bart is supposed to be this highly intelligent, super-vigilant bad dude and he falls off a building? I don’t buy it.Ħ. Bart Bass dies TWICE? And very dramatically, at that. I would’ve thought a friendship as often-tenuous as S and B’s wouldn’t survive that.Ĥ. My (former) best friend DID get together with my ex and that shattered our friendship. And everyone is like, totally OK with that? I would not be OK with all of this friendcest. All of the leads have sex with one another besides Serena/Chuck. ![]() I guess with money you do have a little easier time getting a cocktail, but they drink in public places in their uniforms! (OK, maybe that’s a stretch, but still, Jenny Humphrey never looks older than 17, even in her Courtney Love drag.)ģ. ![]() When I was 19, I was living in a dorm room eating jam on Melba toast every night. ![]() He is 19 years old and wheeling and dealing like a 60-year-old Mafia boss. In Season 3, Chuck is fighting Uncle Jack for control of his hotel empire. Spoilers abound here, so don’t read on if you want to get mad at me for spoiling a show that ended years ago.ġ. And some stuff seems pretty crazy to me, even in the confines of Gossip Girl world, which is 100% not real. Except now with Netflix, I can watch every episode in a row without having to wait through a pesky TV cycle. I just got hooked, and I’m revisiting the show for that same reason. I can’t explain why I love Gossip Girl so much, besides that at times it is insanely clever and the costumes are consistently great. I followed the show from its first episode to its last, even when it was truly terrible and I hated every minute of it. I am deep into my Gossip Girl rewatching.
