Gossip Girl Podcast: "The Grandfather"

Listen Now

Gossip Girl graces us with out-of-control Blair, suddenly respectable Nate, pining Chuck, quippy Dan, and brain-dead Lily and Rufus. Except for that last bit, we approve.

Blair acts out
Nate is drawn back into the bosom of his family, which means -- gasp! -- Nate gets a decent plotline! We know! We were shocked, too! It seems Nate's maternal grandfather is from a long line of politicians, public servants and other grand-high-muckety-mucks, and he expects all his progeny to follow in his footsteps. Nate starts getting sucked back into that world. But is it a bad thing? Vanessa, who was expecting to spend a blissful summer backpacking across the pierogi capitals of Eastern Europe, thinks so, but we have to admit that an internship with the mayor's office would keep us in town, too.

Meanwhile, Blair is spiraling out of control, pissing off the moneyed elites of Manhattan and generally behaving badly. Bliss! We love bridge-burning Blair! Serena and Chuck try to pull her back from the edge, but Blair doesn't seem to want their help (although she does want to get in Chuck's pants). In the end, it's Nate she turns to -- and Chuck, seeing evidence of this, gets steamed. Hmmm...

Find out what we suggest as alternate college destinations for Blair, how we like our Dan, what we thought of the Chuck/Blair/Carter scene, what we won't do to get ahead in the world, and what name always makes us suspicious. Plus, we put out a call to all Polish speakers -- just what was Dorota saying to Chuck? We want to know! And now we DO know! "Are you a crazy, little boy? I work for Miss Blair, not for you. What the hell were you thinking, that you could buy me?" Thanks, Kem! You rock!

I am shocked with the whole Blair and Nate situation. I'm really hoping nothing happened between them.

But bad Blair is awesome. I would love to see more of her like this. Yale I think wanted an excuse not to accept her. But when her and Carter put on a show for Chuck that was just perfect and the way he kept touching her shoulders.

Jackie I completely agree with you, I prefer Dan to just be "lonely boy" and not in a relationship.

Nate was good this episode but I just feel sorry for Vanessa, I like these two together.

Ladies, I can't believe you all forgot to discuss what was about to happen at the end of the episode. No, not the Nate and Blair thing, but what Chuck was coming to tell Blair. It's only what we've all been waiting for. If you remember, Chuck and Serena were talking about how Chuck needs to fight for Blair more, and then Serena says, "You know what to say." Then Chuck goes to Blair's place and tells Dorota that he has something to tell Blair...He was finally going to say "I love you." I mean, isn't that what everyone else got from reading between the character dialog?

what dorota said: are you a crazy little boy? i work for ms.blair, not for you. what the hell were you thinking, that you could buy me?

isn't she the funniest?
