So i finally got around to watching Gossip Girls and…wow.
Incredible episode.
Rufus and Lilly’s goodbye…made me cry. There’s something very youthful and idealistic about their relationship.
Blair is quickly becoming my favorite character – mostly because we’ve seen her throughout the season in all extremes – vulnerable as a daddy’s girl, insulted by her mother, played by her boyfriend on her birthday and then falling for his best friend. And her style is incredible. She’s a girl you love to hate.
I’m still pissed/annoyed however, that Blair and Nate got back together. BUT next episode should be incredibly interesting however- if only because Nate may or may not find out about her and Chuck’s lil romp in the hay. My only really peeve with this episode, as with all of them, is really Vanessa’s character. I just cross my fingers that she doesn’t ruin things for Dan and Serena. Mostly because we can all relate to the former girlfriend/best friend and when we’re dating a boy…love to hate her. But kudos to her for taking the money from chuck and running – i mean come on…blank tape? BRILLIANT!
The irony of Serena getting off for throwing the party not because of her honesty as she thought but because Mr. Bass called, is insane. All in all, another stellar job by Gossip Girl. I feel like we should all appreciate the youthful innocence of her and Dan’s relationship.
If you didn’t see the previews for next week…then you probably shouldn’t read this per my new favorite website. The only real bummer, is that apparently season one, because of the writers strike, has been shortened to 13 episodes instead of the usual 22 which means next week = finale for season 1. At least now hopefully I’ll get the chance to catch up on the books…
BAH! I need me some GOSSIP GIRL (well…Ed Westwick more specifically but i love them all!!!)

IN other trashy television news…
Real World
If a guy tells you he’s in the KKK, he’s shot someone, and then later tells you he has kids, and is STILL on national television…are you really inclined to believe him when he tells you #3? Probably not. But that doesn’t mean I don’t adore Isaac for the jokester he is. Because personally – i think he’s the only cool one in the house.
Can someone please please please explain the Alex/Parissa thing? Because I don’t understand WHY after he tells her…essentially, yes why yes i did like your ARCHRIVAL WHO YOU HAD SENT HOME better than you…why she’d still want anything to do with the aussie dee-bag. Honestly. I don’t get it.
Thank god this season will be over in a couple weeks and then….it’s onto those stupid challenge shows. The fights that go on in those shows are rather comical but I just don’t know if watching it is worth my time or however many brain cells/iq points I might lose from watching it
Boyfriend: All these people want is the money. They don’t deserve the money! I should go on and they should say “NO ONE GETS THE MONEY!…[BOYFRIEND] GETS THE MONEY!!!
His commentary is so amusing to me.

On the other side of the Pacific in Newport Harbor, Chrissy and Clay get back together! YAY!!!!
But before they do, they go to a holiday party at Allie’s McMansion (seriously..indoor pool? Is that really necessary in California????) and they have a conversation that goes a little like this (reworded by boyfriend’s commentary)
Chrissy: hi. can we talk?
clay: heh heh yeah sure.
Chrissy: It’s wierd between us. I don’t like it.
Clay: I know. Neither do I.
Chrissy: So like…what do you wanna do? I miss you. Blah blah blah. Wahhhh.
Clay: well i dunno. but here’s not the place to talk about it.
Boyfriend tried saying you know, maybe if she spread her legs he’d go back. Turned out all it took was her proving she was still into him and not that Billy schmuck.
awwww
Anyhow kiddies, time for me to get some work done. This weekend will be spent busting my ass at the gym, reading and more reading, and writing. Next week i start my blog over at http://www.blastmagazineblogs.com – you can see my article from last night and the night before below:
End of Night Huckabee and Obama come out ahead
What are your thoughts on 2008??
{ 8 comments… read them below or add one }
Next week is the finale of Gossip Girl?? Say it isn’t so! I think a little piece of me just died. And we’ll probably have to wait until September/October to get more. Cruel.
Parisa is just desperate. Saddd.
Nice articles! Congrats
That is awesome that you are covering the presidential debate. I would write more about politics, but I get so frustrated.
And you’re making me think I need to start watching Gossip Girl.
p.s. Go Obama! I heart him.
I thought the RW was hilarious! Isaac could be one of my favorite all time characters. Parisa is so annoying, every time she’s in the storyline, i hope it cuts to her singing the blues around the house, because that could make me laugh even if i was in the worst mood. ever.
Another funny part- when Alex said Trisha had an awesome personality. I think Omarosa has a better personality then that wench
I was so inappropriately happy when Chrissy and Clay got back together, haha
@ nicoleantoinette: omg me too
I love those too together!!! I really hope they have a season 2
love love love gossip girl. glad i’m not alone.
Hey, thanks for the shout out! Some cool reads on GGR next week despite the strike including an interview with the artist featured at Rufus’ gallery. Hope you’ll still stop by!
