Let's Watch Gossip Girl [warning: some mature content]

[Pumpkin]

Dan and Jenny get ready for their respective nights.



Me.

And Blair also gets ready, which she does wrong and disappoints her mom.



Blair tries to stand up to her but fails.



Aaaaand mom of the year award.

Then the Kiss on the lips party starts and Jenny arrives in a hand-sewn dress of her own. She is spotted by Chuck Bass.



Who is being a major creep.

Dan and Serena head to see his dad in concert, but arrive pretty early before the show.



There's some chuckle chuckle flirt flirt as Serena and Dan admit this is a date.

Back at the party, Chuck moves in on Jenny



DON'T DO IT JENNY!! But of course, she does. This leads to him kissing on her and making her uncomfortable so she texts her brother.

He at first mistakes this for another cry-wolf scenario so she tries again.



4 real dan, ths is srs



Serena agrees to go to her rescue, having just had an encounter with Chuck herself.

So they go to the party and everyone is all gossip gossip whisper whisper, apparently having nothing going on in their own lives. Blair is upset.



If looks could kill. Nate says he's just going for a walk and Dan goes around looking for Jenny. He says he can't find her, and Serena suggests they check the roof, where this is happening:



Chuck is a stand up guy.

Dan punches him and Serena yells and Chuck STILL can't remember Dan. He uses the "this is a party, stuff happens" excuse for his attempted rape, which is awful. Serena tells him to stay away from Jenny.



Good Guy Chuck.

Then Dan, Serena, and Jenny grab a cab and leave.



Then Dan asks Serena if he has a chance at a second date, which is really the best timing. Saved sister from almost being sexually assaulted? Time to ask a girl out. Serena says they'll talk about it in the cab, which they do not.



Thanks Gossip Girl!

Next time, we will start episode 2. Yep, that much drama in one episode.

Chuck Bass Attempted Rape Count: 2

[Freya]

haha nice tally.

Heck I don't even have to watch the show with this commentary! It's weird seeing Taylor Momsen as Jenny now. I was getting used to her in pretty reckless. With her raccoon eyes.



Although Leighton Meester also sang but Taylor Momsen is doing a lot better than Leighton's singing career. I guess that's what you get for jumping into the pop scene compared to being a hot girl in a rock band.

SPEAKING OF RAPISTS, her popular song was with Robin Thicke. It's okay.

[Pumpkin]

Oh gosh, Kaycee. Its just



its awful

[Jinx]

I'm like 99% sure that's not even Taylor Momsen. Not just that she's lipsyncing for the video--that's pretty common--that's not her.

[Freya]

She's always showing her tits at her shows now, it's all over the internet now hahaha

She was such a good gossip girl

[Jinx]

never forget

[Freya]

Here's her first video after she left Gossip girl. She left mid season and you can tell by how the story progresses for her.



I kinda like The Pretty Reckless....

Taylor Momsen 004.jpg

xXxhardxcorexXx

[Freya]

If I remember correctly, in that video you can tell, she was still under 18 so they had to not completely show her nude or whatever. You can see like LENS FLARES when she's in her underwear haha

So hardcore with her raccoon eyes.

[Pumpkin]

I will say its fun watching the show knowing who Gossip Girl is. It puts it in a different light. I had been wondering if they just chose last minute who it would be, and they may have, but some of the earlier scenes seem almost set up for it.

[Jinx]

I'm pretty sure they chose last minute. They set it up for basically anyone. I really thought Georgina for a long time.

LEIGHT MEESTER

[Miss Mae]

They claim they knew who it would be from the beginning but it was a matter of whether or not they were going to make the artistic choice to reveal it. I'm not sure I believe that though.

[Pumpkin]

They probably did set it up so it could look like anyone but one thing I found interesting DO NOT READ IF YOU DON'T KNOW WHO GOSSIP GIRL IS was after the first "who am I? thats one secret I'll never tell" you see Dan closing his laptop after surfing on the Gossip Girl website which was kind of a "huh" moment watching it.

[Miss Mae]

That's pretty neat. It would be interesting to keep a running tally of who they focus on after each time that line is said to see if they spread it fairly evenly or if it's weighted towards the actual Gossip Girl.
