I just don't buy that Chuck actually liked Raina - let alone that he deemed her 'sacred'. It was like 5 minutes passed after they met, and we're supposed to believe he loves her? Nonono. Not even a smidgen of effort, writers.

If you don't suspend disbelief this whole show makes no sense. Like W would promote an intern to fill a permanent position with someone who is still in school without any interviews etc. And like anyone working at W spends almost no time actually working. And like everyone wouldn't see through Blair's transparent machinations.
And the whole stupidity about the affidavit is so tiring. BLARGH.

Yes. But the show has gone so far beyond the 'suspend disbelief' mandate that it's not about suspending belief about the reality of the presented situations in the show anymore - it's about suspending your disbelief that such a show can still be on the air and that supposedly intelligent people can still be suffering through it.
:P

You know what is realistic? That Dan Humphrey can pick exactly the wrong post-it and accidentally fork up Blair's life.

Haha also realistic? that my brain is mushy enough to be confused by Gossip Girl. (Granted, I haven't really been paying attention.)

Also realistic - everyone can have sex all the time. No one is tired, or frustrated, or involuntarily celibate.
There is no Thread for the Sex You Are Not Having in the GG universe.
Also no one ever talks to eachother and 18 year olds can get their trust fund papers in a box and then write out a $100,000 check without any other formalities.
What is realistic to me is that no matter how high you go, people are just as crazy. We represented the wife of a hedge fund manager with the sickest homes all over the world. She was batshitcrazy.

Hahahhahah that was amazing. "Oh look, here's my trust fund, on a slip of paper, which means I can write a check with the funds..."
Nonono.
VANESSA GET OUT OF THEREEEE

Tofulish will you concoct a potion for Gossip Girl-induced nausea? I feel that it should be glittery, to the point where it interferes with its effectiveness, yet in your head you believe that it will work to cure what ails you.
Also, condoms.

What was the point of Vanessa returning? Yes, you're an insider. Go and live with Jenny.

Another 'meh...' episode. Last week Chuck loved Raina - now he seems to be using her again, how long will this go on? I must be kinda blind even with 42" of HD, I could not really tell the difference between Blaire's shoes....

I couldn't tell the difference between Blair's shoes either! I like hers and Dan's friendship though I think it'll be quickly mucked up.

Blair could have totally turned that situation around - w the two different shoes - by claiming it's the hottest trend as started by Helena Bonham Carter. Any fashion journalist would have mentioned her highness!

i dont even care how ridiculous this show gets. ill never stop watching because chuck is so hot. unless they kill of chuck...in which case they could always have his sexy ghost make appearances like bart did.
so....im confused about this whole damien thing though. where did he come from again? he was selling eric drugs and they became bffs? but now eric isnt on drugs anymore but damien was blackmailing him because he knows about lily faking the affidavit?
i actually like blair and dan together. even as a couple! possibly. and and and! now dan is suddenly referring to serena as his "sister" but a couple months ago he was fighting with nate over who got to date her!?? ew.

WHY is Ben's mom at this party? I get that she is there for a reason but do they just let anyone in who says Oh I'm invited???
