OMG! I love this show. Love it. I don't know how or why I fell behind watching it, but I NEVER WANT THAT TO HAPPEN AGAIN!
Blair Waldorf continues to own my soul. Seriously. The interview process for the projects vs. the victims. Her handling of the Marcus/Dutchess situation and how she pwned Vanessa's meddling ass. The My Fair Lady dream sequence (soooo brilliant!), and then her rant at Serena about Brown ("you could as well get your hair dreaded when you're down there", lol)
And I am so glad Serena and Dan are over. My enjoyment of the show has increased exponentially since they broke up. They were such dead weight. Lord Marcus and the Dutchess being gone (and the return of Lily and her awesome self) certainly has only made things better. I like my core crew thank you very much!
Speaking of which, Serena is pretty fierce as a bitch. When she was all posing at the bar for that Lacrosse player, I was like "Damn, Blake. Work it gurl!" Seriously hot. I also enjoyed her hbic walks with the lemmings through Constance Billard. The only thing I didn't like about Bitch!Serena was her fighting with Blair (though I have to say, Blair played just as much a part in that as Serena did. I like that they didn't just demonize Serena, but showed her being concerned for Blair's feelings before Blair started verbally smacking her down forcing her to react).
And fuck if Jenny hasn't grown on me. Jenny and Eleanor are an awesome team.
Dan is much more tolerable when he's not around Serena. I'm not gonna say likable, but I don't want to gouge my eyes out when I see him anymore. The fact that people keep calling him on his bullshit and he's been getting like comeupance after comeupance certainly didn't hurt.
But my absolute favoritest part of the last few episodes was the fight/make-up scene between Serena and Blair. Seriously, those two ARE SO GAY FOR EACH OTHER! Their break-up and get together was about a gagillion times more effecting that anything Serena and Dan were ever capable of. They so clearly NEED each other. As hot as the catfight was, Serena wrapping her arm around Blair and then kissing Blair's ridiculous hat was the like the sexiest thing ever. You know she loves that girl when she's willing to walk around in public with her in that getup Blair was wearing (WHAT WAS THAT? Usually Blair is impeccably dressed, but she looked like a hot mess there. I like to think it's because she was so distraught over her break-up with Serena that she just picked out any old thing from the suitcase).
Serena offering to turn down Yale, and Blair telling her not to just sealed their love for me. OMG I LOVE THESE TWO TOGETHER. THERE LOVE IS GOD *goes to get a Slushie*
I also loved the Blair/Dorota scenes. Dorota is such a good surrogate mother, and Blair is so girlish and cute with her.
Also, I continue to LOVECharlie Trout Chuck Bass. Ed Westwick is so good. He's the male Leighton Meester. They're both just pitch perfect all the time. I also loved how much he looked like a vampire in that first bar scene with Dan. Vampire!Chuck is hot.
In conclusion, Gossip Girl FTW!

Date: 2008-10-16 11:25 pm (UTC)You're not crazy. The fight, and everything after the fight was just imbued with sexual tension. When Serena drew Blair into her and kissed her hat, she was totally just trying to sublimate her urge to take Blair on the steps. Nice try Serena, but we're onto you!
It just seemed so obvious to me what would happen next but it never happened. :(
This sums up Waldsen for me on the show. It's like IT'S SO OBVIOUS, but they just never go there.

Date: 2008-10-15 02:30 pm (UTC)that outfit of Blair's....well, Blair was in rare form, I'll say that much.
PS- Serena's interview outfit? Damn.
Any chance of some fic?
We've missed you.

Date: 2008-10-16 11:28 pm (UTC)You can say it, it was hideous. I was shocked into silence when I saw it. My mind literally refused to believe that Blair Waldorf would be seen in public like that (or that Leighton would agree to be filmed wearing that ridiculous getup). I stand by my assertion that it shows how messed up Blair was over her breakup with Serena. She was so devastated that she couldn't even dress herself.
PS- Serena's interview outfit? Damn.
I know. *drools* Blake rocks blazers like whoa.
Any chance of some fic?
There'll be more, but I can't begin to hazard when unfortunately. Let's hope they stay as gay as they were last episode and inspire me!

Date: 2008-10-15 02:47 pm (UTC)i just finished reading your latest chapter of The Edge, and watched my copy of Gossip Girl right after. is it wrong to find S/B's "fight scene" (they call it bitch attacks, i call it foreplay, but whatever) sooooo adorable? omfg. loooooovvvve it.
and c'mon, now that we're just finally over the best friend jealousy thing between S & B, they portray chuck and nate and dan just a little more gay. seriously. this series is just manna to slash shippers.

Date: 2008-10-16 11:30 pm (UTC)And the last episode was indeed awesomely awesome. Just the thought of the hat!kiss and "I can't not know you" makes my heart warm and fluttery.

Date: 2008-10-15 08:31 pm (UTC)Also, I think Blake's boobs have looked stellar this season. I've found her wardrobe choices from a cleavage standpoint to be very agreeable so far. Has her nice rack always been highlighted so nicely?
no subject
Date: 2008-10-16 11:35 pm (UTC)It's true. She's like a dirty!sex!goddess. I can totally see Bitch!Serena sexin' Georgina Sparks in bathrooms. She's a tawdry little strumpet and I love her (when she's not making Blair all insecure).
That slowmo death glare drive-by on dan scene she did soaked panties.
Trufax.
Sarena is no Queen B
This is also trufax. But as you say, Bitch!Serena is very appetizing in her own way. Serena's just not clever enough to approach Blair's level of Bitchy Awesomeness, but her fierceness and boobs make her a formidable foe in another way.
Also, I think Blake's boobs have looked stellar this season.
Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. Yes. (this could go on for a while!)
Has her nice rack always been highlighted so nicely?
I don't think so. This year the girls have just been out and proud on display constantly, and I'm loving it. I like they were more contained last year, so YAY for change. Maybe it's because Serena's supposed to be a bitch now, and bitches show off their tatas or something, but I don't care. Keep up the good work costuming pervs, keep up the good work.

Date: 2008-10-16 02:08 am (UTC)You picked a great time to catch up on GG. I loved the scene at the end of the Yale episode. Waldsen is finally back!
(And Nastia Liukin is going to make a guest appearance, so I couldn't be more thrilled!!!)

Date: 2008-10-16 11:38 pm (UTC)The interview outfit slayed me in a good way. Blair just went way too super duper nerd girl with it, but the over the topness of it cracked me up (much like Blair kissing the Dean cracked me up with the incredible awkwardness). It was that blue monstrousity at the end that had me recoiling in horror however. The hat just added to the overall horribleness of it. It was terrifying.
Serena's, on the other hand, totally rocked.
Yeah, Serena looked smokin' in her interview getup. White blazers and Blake are the perfect couple.
Waldsen is finally back!
I know! Oh, how I missed it :D

Date: 2008-10-19 10:07 pm (UTC)just how gay is Blair? she seems totally head over heels with Serena. The looks she gave her, the way she talked about her "coquettish smile and hair that catches the light" in the dean's office, her "I can't not know you"..and I could go, there' so much evidence.
