Gossip Girl - 1x05 - "Dare Devil"
Oct. 17th, 2007 06:08 pmAs I said in my post last night, this show should totally be called "OMG I LOVE BLAIR" because I totally do. Even though she was being totally evil, and childish and petty this episode, she was so undeniable joyful and entertaining about it that I can't not love her.
Things to love about Blair this episode:
- Having a rack of fabulous clothes dedication to Serena
- The replacement list
- Constantly calling Jenny "Little Jenny"
- Lounging on that table like Queen Bitch as her adoring harem fawns over her.
- Making her invitation to Jenny sound like a come-on.
- Telling Jenny that they play Truth or Dare differently and then the panning shot to Isabelle and Kati kissing while Blair grins madly and triumphantly in the background pressed against Jenny.
- Blair's 'drug addled whore' look and act. When she was listing off those pills I nearly died. The lipstick smeared all over her face just made it that much more hilarious.
- Stealing that guys cell.
- Her 'ugh' when someone said she kissed that guy.
- "I was talking to Eric."
Other Things I Liked:
- I also have to say that I really LOVED Dan this episode. He was completely hilarious. That babbling rant he went on in front of Lily made tears form in my eyes. "When I was little my mother always said I didn't meet a word I didn't like", lol.
- Rufus's hair actually look good!
- Serena manhandling that guy when he went after Blair (aw, so romantic). Not to mention her cute little smile when Blair was all "I was talking to Eric!"
- The picture Eric sent to Jenny. And this exhange:
Eric: It's nice to be out after dark talking to people who aren't you and mom ... even if it is Blair. No offense.
Blair: (smiling happily) None taken.
- Jenny is LOVE. That cover story at the end was great. Not to mention her sassy meeting with Blair. Blair bettah watch out, I see a new queen bee in the making. You also gotta love Leighton for having chemistry with like every female she's on screen with. The way she was smiling at Jenny at the end made my Waldsen loving heart whimper. I'm totally not gonna ship Jenny/Blair though cause Taylor is 14 and that creeps me out (also, we all know that Waldsen is true love).
Things I Didn't Like
- Nothing!
- Lord help me, Dan and Serena's date was actually really cute.
- And Blake's delivery of "Something's vibrating in your pants and I really hope it's your cell phone" was unbelievably cute and sexy.
To conclude:
OH Gossip Girl previews, you giveth and you taketh away. Waldsen better be curled up in bed together at the END of this episode just like at the BEGINNING! I do not want this "Jenny is mistaken for Serena" at the masquerade ball and cause DRAMA thing to carry on past this episode! My girls better still be BFFs at the end. That is all.

Date: 2007-10-18 02:04 am (UTC)I mean really.. how can she compare with the oh so unbelievable Blaire?
she can't, that's how
*enjoys answering own rhetorical questions*
my god.. "Oh, and I"m keeping the jacket"
I would have had 13 high priced lawyers from hell on the phoen the moment that left her mouth...
but the bits where Serena defended Blair was nice
is it blair, or blaire?
eh, whatever
the defending was kick ass
still - I want jenny destroyed for the toes she is stepping on
like GG said - you just don't beat a waldorf at her own game

Plus, the smile that Blair gave as Jenny walked away was totally worth everything, but it was so awesomely pretty.
Serena getting all physical to defend Blair was pure love though. Damn, Serena's hot when she's all Butch and "touch my girl and die!"

Date: 2007-10-18 02:38 am (UTC)mostly the 'date' bit
don't like dan
think in the book he was more angsty or something, and as for jenny, well she doesn't really have a chance in hell of getting truly in with that crowd if I remember right *shrugs*
I wish I had tivo or whatever, I'd play that serena defending blair bit over and over and over and over... then to serena scolding blair, that was just cute
kept expecting them to just kiss and make up, but alas, no, only kissing in this ep was unimportant for the first and PG as in Puke Gag for the second (heh, picked uptt hat from the rating on some popular fic ^_^)
