Gossip Girl: Goodbye Jenny from Brooklyn

They teased us with titillating promos and promises of a scandalous threesome and Gossip Girl delivered…just not in a way that was appealing to half the fan base. We're not sure about you, but we don't take the threesome plotline lightly and when we hear the word "threesome" we automatically think of Chuck. So, imagine our disappointment when the sordid event involved only Dan, Olivia and Vanessa. Ewwwww! Screams of "my eyes, my eyes" were thrown at the television screen. We're not sure what was worse: Olivia and Vanessa locking lips or Dan and Vanessa swapping spit. This is not going to end well for any of them.

Best Beatles reference: Chuck giving Nate a "Lost Weekend" complete with girls sporting tramp stamps and hoping to sort out their daddy issues. Don't know if John Lennon would be proud, but he'd certainly relate.

Biggest character personality switcheroo: Jenny going from a Humphrey into an ice princess in a matter of seconds. Even Anakin made the transformation into Darth Vader over the course of three films.

Worst accessory: Jenny's leather finger gloves. We had to rewind just to make sure she was actually wearing them to the biggest party of her life.

Worst outfit: Jenny attended her cotillion looking like a hot mess. Rock star black does not work with Jenny's pale complexion and the neckline on that dress only accentuated the fact that Jenny lacks boobs.

Worst makeover: Is Blair losing her touch? Kira went from ugly duckling to a better looking duckling with weird hair. It's called a flat iron. Use one!

Stupidest move: Serena going back to Tripp's campaign office to resign. Really? A phone call or a text would have done the trick.

Worst breakup? Poor Eric. First he loses his step-sister and now his boyfriend because of his step-sister.

Best line: "If you two want to kiss, it won't count as cheating." Leave it to Chuck to relieve the emotional tension of Serena and Blair's reconciliation.

This episode showed Jenny at her worst. If she keeps this attitude up, she's going to rule the roost, but who will be there when her reign ends? What did you think? Were you a fan of the threesome? What do you think of the new Jenny?

ummm i loveee blair! shes my fave character and im glad serena and blair r friends again! and ughh jenny used to be the sweet innocent now shes a bitch and i dont think shes a great queen no offense but blair is the all time number 1 queen B and the threesome well that was kindaaa interesting... i dont think it was that necessary tho but it was interesting

speaking of the fact that jenny lacks boobs, in the gg books jenny had like the biggest boobs in the world and some people even made fun of her for it, what ever, ive only read one of the books and i dont watch gg, but i was looking for a oth podcast and i noticed

The threesome was boring...

I really enjoyed the Nate/Jenny part. Although I really did not like her gloves (what was she thinking??), I still really like Jenny (I don't understand why there are so many gossip girl fans against her). I really wanna see more Nate/Jenny stuff in the future... I think they look cute together =)

can you be any more biased?

i love jenny, and she is very misunderstood, and i actually feel bad for her thinking eric is on her side, she must be pretty broken inside, and taylor plays hbic/bitch jenny so well, its amazing.

and nate escorting jenny! adorable!

You guys are being way, way too harsh on Jenny. She's a 16 year old girl trying to make it in the UES. You're also being very hypocritical. Eric isn't some little lamb. He knew what he was doing. He lost his own boyfriend. Jenny didn't force that to happen.

I loved Jenny's storyline and I'm glad Taylor's finally getting something to do. I think she looked beautiful. Definitely not a hot mess or whatever you're saying. It just figures Jenny finally gets more than 3 seconds of screentime and people want to trash her. I hate, hate, hate how everyone else gets a free pass, but Jenny. But I guess haters to the left.

Finally, the Nate/Jenny stuff was the HIGHLIGHT of the episode...actually season for me. I've been waiting for something iconic with them and I got it. So much foreshadowing there. I want them to be together so badly. Maybe if the show made them a couple and gave them a storyline, they wouldn't be off-screen so much.

The threesome was lame.

No post about Smallville on the CW Sources since september 3, 2009.
Why?
There are several posts for all the other CW shows each week.

I'm glad Serena and Blair are friends again... them fighting is getting old. The threesome was tame, I don't know why there was such a big deal about it. That Jenny is getting to be veryyyyy bitchy
