Gossip Girl

"The problem with fairy tales is that they set a girl up for disappointment. In real life, the prince goes off with the wrong princess." - Gossip Girl

Hey Guys,

A few weeks ago I started watching Gossip Girl after recently getting Netflix, which I really shouldn't have been doing as I was in the process of doing my GCSE exams, and all I can say is that I was 100% totally and completely hooked!

In total there are 6 seasons on juicy, gossip filled episodes which each have their own mini cliffhangers, leaving you wanting. I think I ended up going to bed at about midnight on a weekday and around 2:00 am at the weekends (which I am not recommending you to do!) just so that I knew what was going to happen next between best friends Blair and Serena and how they were going to resolve this next problem.

I would have to say that my favourite character is Mr Chuck Bass, played by Ed Westwick who is my teenage crush, because of his sassy, unique attitude which makes him totally lovable in an unexpected way. If you guys watch this series you will find yourself loving him by the end! Honestly, I don't think I dislike any of the main characters (Serena, Blair, Chuck, Dan or Nate) but there are definitely ones that I like more than others. 

This show isn't just about the drama though, I fell in love with the clothes and the lifestyle! With their million pound penthouses and lavish balls I wanted to be one of them, to become one of those five teenagers who we, as an audience, follow for the next few years of their lives. I can't say that their lives are perfect, because their not and you will find out from watching the show, but I wouldn't exactly pass if I were given the opportunity to live like them.

With the sixth and final season airing in 2012 it made me want to watch it more as there wasn't going to be any waiting around for the next episode to come out in a few months. For those of you who have watched it you will already know that the identity of the "famous" Gossip Girl is revealed, but for those who are yet to watch it, pay careful attention as I bet you will be shocked at who "she" actually is, as I certainly was!

( I would love to here your thoughts and opinions on the show in the comments down below but please be wary of spoilers!)
