Before I go on a tirade about "Gossip Girl," I want to put out there that I fully realize a few things:
1. I am too old to be watching "Gossip Girl." I graduated from high school a decade ago, yet I'm still caught up in the lives of NYC's fictitious prep-schoolers. Such is life.
2. I'm a little late to this post. The finale was Monday, I know. But it's still on my mind, that's how disappointed I was...
Which brings me to the finale.
I was ready to have my mind blown. I figured with the gay storyline, evil Georgina, the Blair and Chuck love/hate relationship, the MURDER (not really) that Serena committed... the writers would have saved something really juicy for the finale. And then they didn't.
All of the plotlines were wrapped up and tied in nice pretty pink bows. Rufus and Lily (parents of Dan and Serena) slept together the night before her wedding to rich and conniving Bart (Chuck's dad) ... but their night of love meant nothing. She still got married, they remain friends. BORING.
Dan didn't sleep with Georgina, who got sent away to boot camp, but still broke up with Serena after a long wistful dance. Total set-up for him getting with Vanessa (who wore a hideous dress) and Serena getting with Nate. Again, totally boring.
Blair and Chuck made out on the dance floor and then were scheduled to set out on a vacation when, unbeknownst to her, Chuck ditched her for a blond chick (Lydia Hearst, looking absolutely bony and lifeless). Boring, again.
Oh, and other plotlines ... Jenny will work in fashion for Blair's mom (her at-home sewing has served her well) and Rufus hits the road with his band.
Thankfully, "Gossip Girl" is heading to the Hamptons this summer to shoot next season, back in September with 24 episodes. Stay tuned.
Oh, and if anyone out there has tips on their Hamptons whereabouts, send them my way. Yes, I will be following the cast and crew to the East End ... I have a video camera and I'm not afraid to use it.

Yeah, Yeah It might have been boring, but you have to admit it was a total suprise for them to be spending a summer together( nate and Sarena). Especially when Queen B ( I love her progression) and Chuck were going to be together; which we all know in our wildess dreams will never conclude, but we all know should be. Now Serena, Nate, Dan ,and Vanessa hmmm.... what should the writers constrict in this? Who knows, but the big question is how is Blair, Chuck and most of all Jenny in her new Waldorf internship. Along with the family fued relapse??
Will Georgina appear again,,,,hmm thats for me to know and you to find out; as they say ( aka gossip girl). I don't like her, but she is great for the plot. Still who is going to have the next upper hand in the new seasons story... Sarena, Nate or Chuck and Q B? Maybe it just might be something you couldn't even imagine is there. Little Jenny fighting back in her own way and more from heart strucken' older brother w/ new true love 'Dan. Who knows; all tides may turn to our new up coming events. Hmmmmmmmmmmm... We'll never know, b/c I want tell. Maybe I want have to !!!
