The only thing that could have made this episode worse is if that slut Cabbage Patch had made a cameo.

Oh, and I'm not even going to ask why you've seen dirty Hermione and Ginny fanfic.

Congrats! The Cubs won as many playoff games as the Cardinals this year >:)

I love ur recaps despite ur love of the Cubbies. Is it just me, or did this episode seem like the start of a totally different season than the last few (i.e. no cougar, nate, vanessa, brit guy, dan/serena drama etc)??

I personally think the Lily secret was a Rufus/Lily sexy photoshoot thingy (gag)...since nothing in this show ends up neaarly as good as the antipation for the reveal.

And yeah, Serena needs lessons from Miss Jay.

This was not a great episode.
Blair was annoying and Serena all of a sudden being a socialite party girl was a little too random for me. I would've liked that plot line to actually happen on the show instead of just being mentioned as an afterthought.

And the whole Chuck has no friends thing kind of came out of nowhere for me, too.

I was so glad to have a Vanessa-free episode, though. It was refreshing to make it through an entire episode with no one dressed like a Garbage Pail Kid.

great recap. blair and jenny NEED to take serena down asap.

sorry about the cubs. i'm a die hard mets fan. i feel your pain. trust me.

Loved the recap but you penis worship chuck too much dude. The best thing about both blair and chuck is that they are bad ass and do whatever the fuck they want, but deep down thy both are much better people than the "heroes" like Serena or The Brooklynites. If Chuck is awesome for being shady then you can't say Blair is an immature brat for pretty much doing similar actions. Its called a double standard, which is why no matter how much i love chuck, i love Blair more, its so refreshing to see a female character that doesnt just go with the flow.

And word about a possible Blair/Jenny friendship, leighton and taylor are five times prettier than that buttterface Blake, not to mention better actors.

A shirtless Dan/Nate fight would pretty much be the greatest thing ever for those characters, chuck maybe interesting but hes fug as hell

Dude, loved your recap but you penis worship chuck WAY too much. Hes ace but you cant condone his shady actions and rip on Blair's,its a double standard. The best thing about both of them is that they are bad ass with a heart of gold and probably better ppl deep down than the actual "heroes" of the show.
Thats why I will always love blair more than chuck, most TV shows have a bad boy like chuck in them but it is so refreshing to see a character like blair who doesnt take shit lying down and takes action unlike most boring females. What makes that coupling so compelling is that you can equally appreciate both sides of it.

BJ need to take Serena down ASAP, as immature blair was the entire episode, she owned up to it in the end unlike that twat serena. Not to mention that Taylor and Leighton are 1000 times more attractive than that butterface Blake....not to mention they can actually act as well.

PS, I'm bummed about the cubs too! But yay for ppl from Chicago!

lbonnerz, I agree... Serena/Blake falls into my category of "people who are unattractive but people think they're hot because they're skinny and have blonde hair"

To be fair, Blake Lively looks a lot better after her nose job.
Anyway, I really really liked this episode. Though probably just because of the lack of Nate and surplus of Blair and Chuck.
Btw thanks for that screencap of Dan's paper: truly hilarious.

Alex, Blake does look a little better with a nose job but shes still pretty average to me, ppl just get distracted with her enormous and probably fake breasts and her long hair. Her make up in GG is always atrocious too, in the scene where she told Blair she killed someone all I could do was look at her clown face and think "Buzz, your girlfriend, WOOF!"

I used to really like Blake but she seems totally fake now, Ive also hear alot of rumors about her being the onset diva and not leighton. Apparently, she refuses to be photographed unless she has a full face of make up on...wonder what shes hiding

Hi Lolo!
I really miss your "I Want to Work for Diddy" blog!!! Are there ever going to be any more recaps of it?

heygirl -- that's a really good question for my friend that forwarded it to me (the Harry/Snape stuff's even worse).

kellyhp12 -- you are a cruel woman. But at least you're not a Sox fan. :)

I agree with a lot of you that this episode felt out of sync by dropping ongoing storylines completely and making sudden announcements, like Serena's friendship with Poppy.

lbonnerz -- haha I probably do let Chuck get away with too much. I'll try to check myself in the future. As for my criticism of Blair this ep, I just expect better of her. I rarely expect better of Chuck.

And I agree that while she's objectively attractive, Blake Lively's hotness rating can definitely be attributed to a great figure and long blonde hair. Leighton Meester, on the other hand, it truly beautiful. So is Jessica Szohr, when I get past wanting to punch her in the face and actually look at her. Taylor Momsen's a bit awkward-looking, but she's only 15 and still growing into her features.

And fierytopaz -- I did have to stop recapping Diddy due to real-life craziness this fall and already having another recap assignment. Flipit and I tried to find a replacement, but everyone was just as busy. However, since last night was the finale and GG was a rerun this week, I am planning on doing a recap of the last episode. Sorry I can't do more, but I appreciate you asking!!!
