Gossip Girl

The show Gossip Girl is an insider's guide to the life of the elite. It is filled with teenagers acting like adults and adults acting like teenagers, with one person exposing their every move with the help of the entire Upper East Side. Secrets and betrayals are two things that this show revolves around, along with putting friendships and relationships to the test. If you are not interested in on going drama that seems to always circle back around to where it started, I would not recommend. However, if a show filled with interesting characters, dramatic plot twists, and an appealing setting, you will be hooked.

I'm so addicted to Gossip Girl and Leighton Meester. Her acting is so great!!

Almost 8 years have passed since I finished watching Gossip Girl. Missed it since very much.

It was a fun ride where I got to see and witness beauty, loveliness, memorable moments, naivety, sophistication, devilish and mischievous acts brought to life by a hord of extremely talented actors and actresses. Every one of them shone and played with near perfection. They brought me happiness and sadness. They brought me smiles and tears. I had the pleasure to live with them.

Who doesn't love the Upper East Side, its everyday life, surrounding and sceneries?

Who doesn't like the glossiness of the show varnished with devilish plots?

Who doesn't like the opulence of their everyday life?

And who doesn't like Blair Waldorf AKA Queen B?

She is my favorite character of the show. Beautiful, funny, mean and sensible at the same time, ever complaining (so sweet), always plotting mischief after mischief in ways that only she can pull it with ease, beauty and glory. Played by the ultra talented, glowingly beautiful and award-winning Leighton Meester who dazzles everyone with her smile, brings the series to life, gives it embodiment and makes it an unforgettable experience for all viewers and fans.

She is the epicentre of the show around whom all the others keep rotating and gravitating.

She is the one without whom the series wouldn't exist.

If you haven't watched it yet, please do so. Embrace its life like it's yours, let its current take you to the confines of the Upper East Side with its beauty and mystery and fully appreciate it.

I watched this show in 2019-20 and it did nothing but make me wish I became a fan back when the show was considered relevant. I am currently writing this review at 4:38 AM because I just sat in my bed and binge watched season 6. I have been watching Gossip Girl for months. Initially, I was just looking for a show to watch in my free time. I then spent months using whatever free time I had with my eyes pressed to the screen. Some say the show is boring, but it is far from it. I can't possibly fathom how a show with this much drama can be called boring. It can get annoying how they can't ever have a public function without a side of public humiliation, but it's so fascinating you can't help but wonder what comes next. Ed Westwick was my favorite character on the show and had THE best character development out of everyone! The only complaint I have is finding another show to watch after I have dedicated months to completing Gossip Girl LMAO!

I started to watch this series last month on Netflix (2015), and was so hooked I couldn't wait for the next episode. I also agree with all the positive comments. Being born and raised in Manhattan, I loved that it took place in my city. Even though I was not raised in affluence, The series made me imagine that I did. The acting was so superbly done by everyone, especially Ed Westwick and Leighton Bleester. Their chemistry was so intense and real, it seemed amazing they didn't get together in real life. I'm so sorry that it's over, but happy that I can play it over again whenever I want. I think that we will be seeing a lot more of Ed Westwick in the future; he is an amazing talent.
