As far as season finales go, we were a little bit disappointed in last night's episode of Gossip Girl. What started off as some really juicy story lines that had us on the edge of our seats, ended in characters reaching a whole new level of self-absorbed idiocy. This isn't to say that we hated this episode; we will certainly miss seeing the Upper East Siders until the show comes back. Let's recap, shall we?
We had a great time at the upfronts in New York and we've got a lot of great footage of some of our favorite stars and some up-and-comers. Stay tuned to the CW Source for more interviews from the cast of Gossip Girl, One Tree Hill and the new 90210.
Penn Badgly's character, Dan, has seen lots of highs and lows this year - and he couldn't be more ready for more drama!

We had some serious OMG WTF moments during last week's episode of Gossip Girl and tonight is the season finale! Lily is about to get married, but what about that kiss she shared with Rufus? How badly will this screw things up for the betrothed? Rufus isn't the only Humphrey man with woman troubles. Dan and Serena are on the rocks after she stupidly lied to him about sleeping with another man. Of course, this pushed him into the arms of psycho-bitch Georgina. Something tells us the poop is about to hit the fan.
Looks like the Upper East Side likes their relationship martinis both shaken and stirred. This week's episode of Gossip Girl had us throwing things at the television.
While only part of the beans were spilled in last week's episode, this week we've got the full monty. After running away from Blair's place and boozing it up at a local bar, Serena loses her phone and Dan is the first to be notified of her leaving with three gentlemen (oopsie). Blair finds Serena, calls Chuck and Nate to come help her get S cleaned up, and the drama only builds from there.

We're still reeling from Serena's shocking confession at the end of last week's Gossip Girl episode! That stunning moment capped off an action-packed episode: Blair and Eric exposed Jenny and Asher's relationship for the lie it was, Rufus and Lily danced around their attraction once again, and evil Georgina continued to wreak havoc. Jason C. has the recap!
Mia, Sarah, and I are blown away by Serena's shocking confession in today's Gossip Girl podcast! We wildly speculate what might have happened in her past, can't believe Georgina outed Eric, and simply adore Blair for everything. There's also discussion of Lily and Rufus (and a good argument for why you shouldn't go wedding dress shopping with your ex), Jenny's tenuous grasp on popularity, and the surprise of seeing Dan turn to Gossip Girl.

What was already a fabulous episode upped the ante and freaked us out during the final 30 seconds. Our friends were madly texting and calling us -- could this really be true? Serena... a MURDERER?
The final moments were so completely unnerving, we believed it. Between Blair's coaxing and Serena's frantic, teary pleas, the girls had us convinced something utterly awful was about to surface. And when Serena finally blurted it out, we stayed rooted to our seats in shock.
There has to be more to the story, right? We find it hard to believe that sunshiney, cheery Serena would kill someone -- no matter what the circumstances. Okay, so Georgina was involved... but to what degree?
Georgina continued to terrorize Serena, displaying just how much power she has over her so-called friend: posing as Dan and Vanessa's new pal, outing Eric at the dinner table, and sending Serena that tape. We felt chills when Serena realized what she was up against... but it was too late. How could she tell Dan the truth now?
Though we've had lots of issues with Dan's judgmental nature in the past, we can hardly blame him for being skeptical of Serena at this point. All he's seen lately is her avoiding him, hanging with Chuck (who we missed in this episode! No Chuck OR Nate), and partying through the SATs. Even if she told him the truth about Georgina, he'd have little reason to believe her at this point.
Meanwhile, Jenny seemed to have everything going her way: she had a boyfriend with a pedigree, she was hosting a fabulous party, and Blair was most definitely NOT invited.
The Gossip Girl guys are back, and they're answering your questions! Chace and Penn talk about which character they'd most like to hang out with, the pitfalls and perks of their newfound fame, and funny stories from the set!
It's SAT time on the Upper East Side, but hardly anyone was studying! Serena reunited with her troublemaker pal Georgina for some cocktails... and then some. Nate hooked up with Vanessa (!), Lil' J met a cute new prospect, and Blair schemed about how to bring down Nelly Yuki. Get Jason C.'s recap!
The hot Gossip Girl duo got a little silly recently backstage in New York. Penn reveals why he wants Dan to have more layers, the guys tell us how much influence they have on plots, and both Chace and Penn have fun doing Ed Westwick imitations. Check out what the guys had to say!
Georgina returned, Blair established social dominance, and Vanessa and Nate hooked up (we're still reeling from that one!).
In this week's Gossip Girl podcast, we wonder if Blair is being misused, are happy to see Serena shaken up a bit, and can't wait to know what Georgina has on Serena. We also debate the Nate/Vanessa pairing (Sarah's into it, but Mia and I aren't convinced yet) and we can't believe Asher's brown-nosing -- and that Rufus bought it. And we close things out with a discussion of this episode's fashion, from Chuck to Georgina.

After shaking Serena up with some racy gifts last week, Georgina finally made her long-awaited appearance on Gossip Girl. What'd you think? We have mixed feelings -- when she just seemed like a party girl who likes to stir things up, we liked her, but when she drugged Serena's drink, she crossed the line and we're kind of scared of her. And what about the final scene of the episode? She seems like she's after Dan new, complete with a borrowed dog and fake identity. Will he fall for it?
Has Serena learned nothing from her fights with Blair and Dan? Honesty is the best policy, but S continues to dance around the truth when it comes to Dan... and he's not happy. Once again, someone else's crimes were pinned on Chuck this week. And for once, the guy hasn't even done anything wrong!
Speaking of Chuck, he's just not getting enough airtime. Okay, we're pretty hardcore Chuck/Blair fans, but this show hooked us with their romance, and now they both seem relegated to B plot storylines -- Chuck's busy helping Serena cover her tracks, and B is back to her social climbing with the kinda dull Upper East Siders. The one scene when Chuck and Blair exchanged nothing more than a chilling glare left us wanting more. We hope to see more of that plot later this season.
After a long hiatus, Gossip Girl took no time getting back to what it does best: backstabbing and social climbing, of course! Jenny and Blair faced off in an ongoing war of popularity, while Serena received mysterious packages and dealt with Chuck as a new stepbrother. Get Jason C.'s recap!
New Gossip Girl is back tonight at 8/7c! Get ready by hearing what Leighton Meester hast to say about how Blair will build herself back up after her social crash-and-burn earlier this season.
Mia, Sarah, and I are back with our weekly take on the backstabbing and bitchery that make Gossip Girl such a deliciously guilty pleasure!
This week, we discuss Jenny's conniving behavior, Chuck and Eric's unlikely bond, and the picture cake party of horrors. We also debate some of the show's new fashion choices (Blair's blue coat? Chuck's shark sweater?) and love her Breakfast at Tiffany's-inspired dream. And we're loving how the impending arrival of Georgina has Serena and Chuck freaked out -- and possibly working together.

In this week's episode, we adored watching Nathan and Haley take new risks with their passions (and support each other along the way), can't stand Q but somehow also feel sympathy for him, and wonder how Brooke will handle motherhood. We also talk about Mouth and Millicent's next step and discuss why we really liked Lucas and Peyton this week.

Gossip Girl returned last night and brought on the backstabbing! Blair's return to Constance Billard wasn't exactly glorious -- Jenny and hew new socialite pals humiliated the former Queen B by flinging yogurt into her hair in front of school, almost bringing Blair to tears.
Lil' J has turned bitchy really quickly. And in case you couldn't tell by her actions, her looks pretty much tell the story: she's suddenly sporting shorter locks, heavily lined eyes, and the all-but-trademarked Headband of Evil.
Meanwhile, Blair is sans headband and lovely lipstick for the first time in weeks, and is it our imagination, or are her curls not quite as crisp?
Before things got too heated, Nate stepped in and told Jenny to be careful -- she might be in over her head. She didn't heed Nate's warning about her new circle... but she should have.
Serena, who can be so over-the-top optimistic that we wonder how she was ever a bad girl with a dark side, urged B to kill Little J and her friends with kindness.
When we last saw Upper East Side's elite, Blair was thisclose to fleeing town, Serena and Dan exchanged "I love yous" (finally!), and Nate and Chuck went from best friends to bitter enemies over Blair. Tonight, the Gossip Girl gang returns after a long hiatus with an all-new episode: "The Blair Bitch Project." Can't wait! Jason C. has the OMG-worthy recap.
Tonight, Gossip Girl FINALLY returns with new episodes at 8/7c, and we've got more from stars Chace Crawford and Penn Badgley! They address rumors of a possible gay character, talk about their ideal women, and more.
In the first part of their chat with Jason C., Gossip Girl stars Penn Badgley and Chace Crawford talk about Jenny's relentless social climbing, what's next for Serena and Dan's relationship, and their most crazed fan encounters! Is it just us, or does Penn's sense of humor remind you of Dan's?
