Gossip Girl: Over the River and Through the Woods
Most crowded table: Rufus and Lily just don't know when to say no. Lily actually invited people on the streets of New York to this shindig. Granted, the people in question weren't strangers, but that's worse than sending your guests a Facebook invite.
Biggest surprise: Dorota is preggers! Get the maternity maid's uniform ready.
Biggest upset: Serena turning down Nate and getting into that limo with Tripp. Sometimes you can't see your destiny, even when it's standing right in front of you.
Best threat: Chuck's claim that if Serena and Tripp ever play tonsil-hockey in his hotel elevator again, she'll be sent packing to an airport Marriott.
Biggest alky: Lily. When the going gets rough, Lily always reaches for the nearest glass.
Lamest excuse: Blair's mother is moving to Paris so Blair can take her rightful place and reign over New York. Has she been paying attention? Blair's ruling stint ended when she walked out of high school.
The "living-under-a-rock" award goes to: Jenny. Did she really think after the egging, etc. that she and Eric and were still friends? Did she not notice Jonathan's absence during the past few weeks? Is she really this dense?
Most awkward threesome: Serena sitting next to Tripp at the dinner table and across from his wife. Now that we think about it, why wasn't Tripp sitting next to his wife?
Most tantalizing foreshadowing: What exactly did Lily do while she was supposed to be caring for her sick mother? Where did she go? Who was she with? Why won't she tell Rufus?
What did you think? Is Serena just stupid or is she just following her heart? What does it all mean for Tripp's career? Is he really willing to risk it all for some "18-year-old blonde coincidence?"

Once again I just love Gossip Girls, Thanksgiving episode they never fail to amuse. And it was great to see the entire cast in the same episode and room.
I have a feeling that Lily's secret is connected with Serena's father, maybe she went to see him and told him to stay away from Serena and that's why he wouldn't see her.

N//S suck so hardcore. The whole thing is forced and contrived and CAME OUT OF NOWHERE. When characters are telling you to "go for it" and you're confused, it's just not working. Plus, two mediocre actors with no chemistry completely make N//S an unshippable couple. And I thought N//V was bad! I was wrong! This is wayyyy worse! I honestly thought you guys would be smarter to see the contrived mess in front of you instead of eating it up.
I'm only watching right now for Jenny's storyline, but I have to see how that's gonna evolve before I commit myself to watch the second half of the season.
Please wake me up when the balance on this has been restored and things make sense again. What was the point of the world's blending if everyone's so isolated and their male/female double? It makes no sense.
Also, please stop picking on Jenny. It's not her fault Eric became a hypocrite. Thanks.

Hi again but I had this little problem. Chuck told Nate to go say how he feels to Serena before she leaves. But, Chuck should know what would happen because it happened to him last season. But i still love the show can't wait for the podcast.
