Gossip Girl

I think that for gossip girl original followers this reboot is a dull and boring copy. It's just another series about 2021 and basic drama and basic issues like any other series. Not as poetic and classy, just sexual and unoriginal. This is an offensive (in my opinion) reboot for the culture that gossip girl created years ago and that's still in our lives today.

The original gossip girl was fun and classy. This is simply trashy. The characters are supposed to be 14-15 years old. It's full of sex, nudity, tons of bisexual activity, drugs, and even talk of using Botox. Is this really what we need to be teaching pre/teens and teens to look up to?

I just finished the pilot episode and come straight here to see if I am the only one who is feeling so annoyed or there are others.. No surprise almost everyone here is left high and dry.. What are they thinking? I can understand they have tried to be inclusive of black community but atleast they could have found better faces or more likeable characters.. We are used to watching Sarena and Blair.. there is no one near to them in this reboot.. Rivalry between siblings.. oh it couldn't get any more lame..

New gossip girl simply does not want to gossip? She simply takes orders and plays along with what the people want. Characters are bad and have no soul. It's a clear copy of Elite but in minors' version.

HBO needs to choose what they want, you either do a total kids' show or a 18+ one. They try to do both, threesomes and sexy plots with poor sex scenes and kids' conversarions.. everything is just bad overall why.

Not being a super fan, I did watch the original so it is hard not to make comparisons. So I will begin with that:

• Original characters were more likeable (even the "mean" ones) and had more depth
• Plot of the original much more interesting. E.g.: the secrecy of the GG made things a lot more engaging
• Fashion also much better on first run
• The new GG is creepy

All in all, the show by itself can be a meach passing your time if you have nothing at all to do.
