Gossip Girl - So the Bitch Really is Back


The wide eyed innocence of Georgina was starting to get to me in last night's episode of Gossip Girl. I kept hoping for the old Georgina to make a comeback and that she did; but not until the very end. At least this new found bitchiness (or rediscovery of) leaves the door wide open for more Georgina in the future (and the Georgina that we love to hate not the doe eyed sap that found the Lord). Just a few thoughts about last night...

  • Dan, SHUT UP! Stop talking! Especially to the grown ups about things that are not your business. When did Dan become the goody two shoes of Gossip Girl? And more importantly why?
  • Finally, finally Chuck lets Blair go. He lets her establish a relationship with boring old Nate because he "loves her". Whatever dude. I know that the saying is "if you love someone set them free" but free to do what? Live a boring life with no scheming ever. That is just not Blair. Obviously we have not seen the last of this triangle.
  • I almost threw up when Gabriel tried to get Serena to believe that he really cared about her and that he wanted another chance. You stole money from her family and friends and want her back in the sack. I thought for a moment that she considered it but alas maybe Serena does have some sense.
  • When did Lily become an old fuddy-duddy? She wanted to let Poppy get away (and she did) so as not to cause a scandal. But then she had her own daughter arrested? All of this is a build up to the episode (and maybe spin off) of the young Lily that airs next week. Maybe we will begin to understand why she is so conflicted.
  • As for the botched Rufus engagement; did we ever really think that was going to happen? Rich woman, poor man with pride (now a poor man with no pride would work) never works.
Only two(?) more episodes left (I think) and next week is the 80's flashback and the Prom. Does this mean that Poppy does get away with the money until next season? What about Rufus and Lily's "dead" child? Will Jenny ever get a new haircut? Where is Vanessa? Till next week. XOXO
