Gossip Girl Podcast: "The Remains of the J"
Gossip Girl shows us that the best of intentions... well, sometimes aren't actually the best of intentions, as Serena is determined to throw Little J a Sweet-16 shindig whether she likes it or not. Plus, Vanessa and Chuck act out, Blair and Nate confuse us, Rufus and Lily continue to act like Rufus and Lily, and Dan gets a surprising fan letter.
Meanwhile, Chuck is convinced that Blair is back with Nate, and Blair seems to agree with him. Nate... he says they're just friends. But Vanessa doesn't buy that line, so she makes out with Chuck so they can discombobulate their exes. Discombobulation is achieved, and Blair flings herself at Nate -- who declines to catch her, saying this isn't the way he wants it to be. That, to us, sounds like he's saying he just wants to be friends. But at the end of the ep, he gets Dorota to bring Blair out to the duck pond so they can make out. Wait, what?
Finally, Rufus and Lily cook up a cockamamie scheme to pay for Dan's college (um, folks, you might want to consult with your kids before you make that sort of step) and Dan gets a fan who is closer to him than he thinks.
Find out what we thought about Serena's motives, hear a surprising confession from Mia, discover who would REALLY be paying Dan's tuition, and learn what we thought about Jenny's actions.

Wow. This was probably my least favorite GG episode ever.I liked none of the storylines, except Jenny standing up for herelf. With the Nate thing, I'm totally with you, I was just like: What?? when Dorota told Blair that 'Mister Nate wanted to know favorite spot for first kiss'.Now all of a sudden he does want to be with her, just not 'like that'?. Like what?! Like being friends? Like her trying to get him to want a relationship with her again but he doesn't really want to? I totally don't get him. And I was thinking the same thing as you guys with Dan and the letter. Why would someone older write him a fan-letter? (and he has to be older because otherwise it would say that Lily and Rufus had a child after Serena and Dan were born, and that would be totally self-contradictory.)
One more thing I've been asking myself for the last couple of episodes: Is the Jack Bass presumably sleeping with Blair storyline EVER going to return? I mean, he's been exiled to Australia. Maybe it's coming back in the finale. To destroy the happiness (or maybe just a truce) that might be existing for 5 seconds between Chuck and Blair.
Anyway, I love your podcasts, they're so much fun to listen to.

I couldn't really get into this episode. Chuck and Vanessa, Blair and Nate really? although I am kinda curious to see where this all leads.
I liked Jenny this episode. I think Serena was just out of line by making the party about her.
Oh and I also wanna know more about Dan's fan aka brother sorta. lol
great podcast
