Gossip Girl: "O Brother Where Bart Thou?"


Gossip Girl: "O Brother Where Bart Thou?"
Grade: A-
Wow. This is easily the best episode of the season. Sorry it has taken so long. Finals have been crazy. This will be short. Some really great song usages. Not neccesarily because I liked the songs (although I truly liked a couple) but because of the way the songs were used. Emotions were at their peak during the entire episode. The Blair/Chuck stuff was stellar. She tells him she loves him finally (!) and he brushed it off but ends up sleeping in bed with her (they do not do it) and leaves the next morning leaving a note to not come looking for him. Chuck is fucked up because of his father's death. Not he will never get the love from him he wanted. Apparently Aaron will not be on the show when it comes back from hiatus. YAY!!! Although I wonder where this leaves Cyrus, Aaron's dad because he is such a great addition to the show and I do not want him gone. The Cyrus/Blair stuff is soo touching. The Lilly/Rufus scenes just as good. I honestly do not know what to say except that this was possibly the best episode of the series. I cannot wait for January. xoxo.
