Welcome to our new chatty format of Gossip Girl recaps with my beloved friend Kate, a pop culture fiend just like you and me. Last night, we ripped apart one of the things we love the most–Monday’s episode of GG! (Next week, we promise to do so in a more timely manner!) We had fun– hope you do too!
Sarah: Hi Kate, What did you think about Lil J’s ratty-ass yellow extensions?
Kate: They swallow her. And the slo-mo hair toss in the beginning made me want to rip that weave right out.
Sarah: That’s the money shot I’m talking about! Awful. And they played that “rockstar” song. I gagged. You know she made them play that.
Sarah: Kate, please fill out the rest of this sentence. “If Lil J rolls her heavily made up skunk eyes one more time I will…”
Kate: “If Little J rolls her heavily made up skunk eyes (although they’ve gotten better) one more time, I will slap her on the back so her face stays like that forever.”
Sarah: LOL good answer momma kate!
Sarah: OK, lets talk fashion very quickly – it should be noted Blair now wears only silk bathrobes or evening wear during the day.
Kate: crickets.
Sarah: Moving on, I cant stand the Chuck’s Mom story line, it’s such a snooze. Why are we supposed to care?
Kate: There was a lot of mesh cleavage
(Jenny’s dress, Serena’s horrific frock)
Kate: Like, since when does Serena cover the bomb squad??
Sarah: YES. Not sure.
Sarah: Question— At what point do you send Lil J to boarding school?
Kate: She’d be sent to a boarding school in Switzerland by now (reference: parent trap – haley mills version)
Sarah: Kevin Zegs had some seriously pervy moments
I’d say between him saying “nice and slow” to Lil J about her first time
to him saying “the place beneath your kilt” he’s a serious underwear sniffer
Kate: Haha – ew totally
Sarah: And how old is he supposed to be?
Kate: Too Old.
Kate: speaking of underwear….did you get to the part where V admits to Dan she’s not wearing any? ew.
Sarah: Yes I saw V walk over ( she walks like a man) and say that shizz about the underwear, then Dan BIT his lip. Totally gross.
Sarah: If you took off Jenny’s eye liner, lip gloss and extensions she’d look younger than Fanning.
Kate: She is!! And Zegs is like the creepy substitute on Lifetime Movies who hits on the H.S. students. Raunch.
Sarah: I love Lifetime.
Kate: I missed the point where Damien actually started liking Jenny, instead of just using her to peddle his narcotics
Sarah: Everyone missed that part. It went from zero (last ep) to heavy petting (this ep).
Sarah: I also thought I detected a spark between Chuck and Lily. I’m all for that romance– its the last one we havent covered on this incestual show.
Kate: I was thinking Chuck’s mom and Rufus!!
Sarah: I just can’t watch Nate and Chuck and V and Blair and Serena swap STDs anymore
Sarah: Question– in real life Kelly Rutherford and Matthew Settle are both swinging single, so– do you want them to date in real life or could you care less.
Kate: I think I might actually like her…whereas he skeeves me out.
Sarah: Lily is looking too thin recently. Perhaps it’s the real life paternity case.
But dang it looks good. Sigh.
Sarah: Did that scarf Lily left in Brooklyn belong to the Cougar downstairs?
Kate: No — it was rufus’ scarf that HE left in Cougar’s apt and Cougar left it at the doorman desk with Vania. Which baffles me, because rich UES Cougars know how to cheat more subtlely than that.
Sarah: she wants to get caught! (Like Lloyd Dobbler– “I wanna get hurt!)
Sarah: I’m really over the “we’re old” jokes like the “Dirty Dancing–it’s good– download it” crap. Jenny liking that movie ironically is gag central.
Kate: OMG. I died.
and poor Patrick Swayze.
he’s not even cold in his grave
Kate: He loses all post humous credibilty by being the object of Serena’s teenage lust
Sarah: Also what about Rufus suddenly being like the lady who “sits” in a crisis and ppl bring him casseroles– he’s all, “Oh thank you for coming, Vanessa, how i needed you by my side”
Kate: and yes – rufus wins worst father of the decade award.
Kate: like, jenny has run away, cut class, etc before and rufus is all ‘get brooklyn under her feet again” and thinks hes curing her?
Sarah: So stupid hes like a goldfish. He forgets everything.
Kate: he’s the reason she’s gonna end up knocked up before college
and where is mama? she just soooo cares so little about her kids? nope
Sarah: and Chuck’s new gap toothed overbite? What is that ABOUT.
Kate: Chucks affected way of talking grates me
Sarah: What about when Zegs calls Latin a “dead language” all smug-like like hes the first person to ever say that
Sarah: And WHAT was serena mad at nate about? NOT talking about her losing her virginity? Or something? HOW does she always find somethign to pout about?
Kate: implying she’s a slut
which she is
how DARE he
Sarah: I hate that ppl always just go running to her
Kate: she only broke up a politicians marriage, slept with her best friends boyfriend, and blew lines off a coke dealers chest naked – WHY would we think she’s a slut?
Sarah: LOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
I am losing it!!!
Kate: OK
Sarah: oh and someone died in her room while she was nekkid
remember
but god forbid Nate remind her
Kate: right – he was blowing lines off their soiled sex sheets when he OD’ed
Kate: and Georgina was filming
oh, how unslutty
Sarah: cant wait for her Georgina– she’s coming back, and she’s coming back BLONDE
Kate: totes
Sarah: ok K Zegs jsut said “i’ll give you a real reason to thank me” and attacked Jenny in the hotel room.
Kate: legit child molester
Sarah: I think we’re just going tohave to call this The Mesh Cleavege episode
Kate: seriously
it was wierd right?
Sarah: Jack Bass’ new goatee is wretch worthy
Kate: is that even the same jack bass?
Sarah: yes same guy. diff facial hair. he was on Dexter (love that show).
Sarah: Serena never wears any freakin clothes
Kate: she lets those babies breathe every chance she gets
Sarah: OK why is Serena letting Nate act like she was date raped in the coat room by K Zegs? We were all there Serena, he just tried to kiss you! Men have tried, and gotten away, with much worse! Why all this attention CONSTANTLY ON YOU
Kate: serena is a self important self absorbed trainwreck
Sarah: no job no school just sex makes Serena bat sh-t crazy
Kate: sex lies and videotapes. like, literally
Sarah: but her mom is the example do nothing sleep with guys, eff them over they keep coming back! but lily is just more likable
Kate: lily at least pretends to care about others.
Sarah: right
Kate: Serena just wants to overwhelm people w/ her amazonian breasticles, massive hair weave, and pouty lips
Sarah: Omg jenny i know im supposed to feel bad for you right now because you feel used, but the “dad, whatever” comment is too much for me.
Sarah: do you think serena’s hair is a weave in real life?
Kate: theres gotta be mad hair extensions up in there
Sarah: serena literally looks like she should be selling her wares on 43rd street in that dress
Why does jenny do stuff like this: tell her dad and lily they were damians pills. 2) tell nate damains a dealer. 3) tell ppl she really had sex
Kate: you mean, lie to everyone about everything? b/c her role models are serena, lily, her mom, and blair
Sarah: RIGHT
Kate: Where’s Eric by the way?
and do they just not even pretend to go to nyu anymore?
Sarah: I WAS JUST going to ask you that. This show always just expects us to forget stuff- like Tripp, or that Zegs didn’t even like Lil J last episode– or that Eric was ever part of the family. Unfortch, I just dont think ppl care enough about Eric.
Kate: like, didn’t blair room in the dorms?
now she’s seductively eating strawberries at chucks hotel
Sarah: Shes just obsessed with chuck
and lazes around all day
Kate: she’s such a good girlfriend tho
she loves him so fiercely
it makes me happy
Sarah: right. but blair has become a shell of herself. EVERYTHING is about Chuck.
Kate: she’s the good girlfriend who loves chuck fiercely. which is nice cuz all the rest of the relationhships on the show are shams
Sarah: yes yes yes
TOTALLY i love their love
Kate: i love their love too
Sarah: That’s a nice thing to say about a couple
Sarah: but blair is too into chuck – not healthy (speaking from experience)
Sarah: nate and vanessa doing it made me SO GROSSED OUT
Kate: UGH UGH UHG
Kate: dan loves being topless tho
Sarah: dan loves wearing tank tops– navy ones.
Sarah: nate and serena– i just CANT buy them as a couple
no no no chemistry– none.
she has more chemistry with tripp
Sarah: Did they just say “I love you” for the first time?
Kate: no one says i love you for the first time right after being called a ho
Sarah: no one except serena
Kate: exactement
Sarah: I KNEW chucks mom was bad!!
Kate: yes, i called the mom / jack kahoots.
poor chuck
Sarah: i know:( Chuck is like a kitty kat though– he always lands on his polished wing-tipped feet!
Kate: only serena would have a plan that involves a guy OBVIOUSLY ripping off her clothes. because god forbid a guy like someone other than her. (Re: her attempted damien double cross.)
Sarah: totally– she just wanted extra day sex. shes a sex addict! BAD. Go to that place Tiger went, S! That would be a good storyline. Then she’d have affairs with her counselors. If this show has taught us anything (and it’s taught us a lot) who can resist Serena? No one.
Kate: Even serena can’t be surprised nate thinks she’s a slut. she’s a slut. and if she was so concerned about her reputation, she wouldn’t have ruined a senators (congressman?) marriage for a cheap thrill, nearly ruined her friendship with blair to have a tawdry affair with blairs boyfriend (at the time), wear anything that shows off her breasticular appendages, or use her sexual wiles to try and trap people (Damien) into making out with her. Slut. serena want to “relive that night” with Nate? she was wayway riding him on a bar stool like a cracked out stripped while he was DATING HER BEST friend! wtf
Sarah: yes serena is totally sex driven and SO selfish!
agreed
Kate: is lily dying of somthing?
Sarah: i really hope not but the “tests” didnt sound good
but rufus is the one who LOOKS sick
Kate: sallow
i htink he might have a crush on Vanessa which is the real reason dan doesn’t want to tell him
Sarah: I think you’re on to something.
Btw, i totally want chuck and lily to get together, and rufus and vanessa. Does that make me old that I want the parents more involved? Yes.
But that would be hot. THAT i would give a crap abt.
Kate: haha.
that is SO LIFETIME MOVIE OF YOU
Sarah: call it as you see it!
Who is Clark Rockefeller? was amazing
AMAZING.
