Last night's episode of Gossip Girl was back to being the show that I fell in love with...almost. There was one brief moment of the old Chuck (yeah!) only to be replaced by the Chuck with a conscience (boo) but otherwise the entire episode left me wanting more (and more and more). For a full recap check out EW.com (here). I just wanted some feedback about what happened at the end. Brief summery..Serena fell for Poppy's boyfriend in Spain (Gabriel I think). She rushed home thinking that she had married him (she didn't) and he followed her. Gabriel seemed really into Serena until the end when we saw him arrive back at Poppy's place. WTF? Who is this Gabriel and what is he doing to the fair Serena? Are he and Poppy just f***ing with her for laughs or is it more sinister than that? Now here is the big question...is Georgina involved? Any thoughts, ideas etc? We all know that Georgina is coming back this season (next week in fact), is this the reason?

Gossip Girl - College Visits
I love Chuck Bass. I love Chuck Bass in a way that all women love something that is bad for them (junk food, wine, an occasional cigarette). Chuck has a way of being a complete asshole but yet he still (for some reason) makes you want to be in his presence. Last night was no exception.
The gang (Chuck, Nate, Dan, Serena and Blair) headed to Yale to begin the interview process for colleges. Serena was headed to Brown until Blair put her in her place and Serena could not let a dare go unchallenged. So off to Yale they went with Blair and Serena competing (again) for a spot in the freshman class, Dan trying to get into the English Department and Nate and Chuck set to experience more of the social scene.
Nate met a girl but lied about his name (using Dan Humphrey as his alias) due to the stellar reputation that his father has on campus. Dan tried to get a recommendation from someone in the English department but was mistaken for Nate (?) and tied to a bell tower. Check was absconded by a secret society and sent them to attack Dan (telling the guys that he was Nate) because Chuck is still smarting from Dan using him for a story. And Serena and Blair in their usual nice but bitchy manner were both trying to get in good with the Dean of Students.
The girl fight between Serena and Blair was hilarious and when they both decided to stay out of the other's way, we all knew that it would not last. They were nicey, nicey the next day but I am hoping this won't last either. The two are fun when they are at each other's throats. As for Chuck and his secret society; of course Chuck Bass used skanky women to get all the boys on camera doing "God knows what", so he has these "pillars of the school" in his back pocket and at his disposal now.
The only surprising thing was that Nate and Dan left campus together; Nate was upset with Chuck for sicking the society boys on Dan and decided that he would rather spend time with Dan than Chuck. Poor Chuck looked sad and friendless. How will this one play out? Till next week. XOXO.

Gossip Girl - Fashion Week
Gossip Girl is totally getting back into the groove and this most recent episode about Fashion Week really turned up the bitch meter to an all new level. I cannot decide if I like the new Serena (new attitude not new person) but she certainly makes things interesting. Also, Dan and Chuck as friends not real believable but entertaining and a little sad.
This week began with Blair prepping to get back to the natural order of things by bribing the minions with front row seats to her Mom's fashion show. Serena still stole the spotlight and Blaire was left wondering how to re-gain her throne. In a strange spurt of bitchiness (mixed with hurt feelings) Blair almost ruined her Mother's show and in the process lost Serena as an ally. Serena has decided that she always "held back" for Blair and maybe it is her time to "shine". Maybe so Serena but you must get a better pose for the photogs. Yours looked like old Paris Hilton before she became so desperate.
As for Check and Dan; with Nate out of town Chuck seemed a bit lonely. Enter Dan on a mission to get outside of his "comfort" zone and see the world from another view. After drinking too much and getting "kicked to the curb" (literally) by Chuck; Dan goes back for seconds to find out what makes Chuck tick. He finds out but in the process makes an enemy when Chuck realizes that Dan is using him for a story.
Chuck vows revenge on Dan, little Jenny and Blair are fast becoming friends, Serena is Queen Bee with an attitude and Nate and Vanessa...well they weren't really missed. No new episode for two weeks (what?). But when we return, college visits. XOXO

Gossip Girl in The Hamptons
Gossip Girl is back and I would like to say with a vengeance but alas I am unable to. Last night in the Hampton's the season premiere was a bit lackluster (kind of like a beach vacation) but some fun things did happen and left the door open for a new start in the city.
I knew that the writers could not keep Dan and Serena apart for long and they were back together in less than an hour. Who knows what this year will bring now that we all know Serena's big "secret".
This is the part that really got to me; trying to get Chuck Bass to utter the words "I love you" is against all laws of nature and should ever be attempted again. Chuck apparently was miffed that Blaire got over him so quickly (she didn't really) and then he realized that he actually does care about her (OMG shock!). Here is my appeal to the writers; let Chuck Bass be Chuck Bass. Let him lie, cheat, fornicate and act like a pompous ass because this is why we love him. No more of this wussy boy "I love you" crap.
Now Blaire has moved on to a man with a title (a Lord I think). Nate is having an illicit affair with a married woman and little Jenny has made nice with Eric and is just trying to get her designs (?) out there. Was this all enough to hook me for a second season? Yes but (you knew there was a but) don't f*** with the formula that brought me here. Keep the drama coming. Later taters (and XOXO you know you love me; had to do it).
