Hey there Upper East Siders, Gossip Girl is officially over! On Dec. 17, we bid farewell to our one and only “scandalous guide into Manhattan’s elite,” and sat down for the most memorable finale of 2012. In case you missed the juiciest installment of all six seasons, let me recap so you have something to talk about for the next couple of weeks at lunch.
- Serena’s Realization.
In this episode, Serena discovered Dan’s “love” chapter about herself in her suitcase and ultimately decided she couldn’t take off for L.A. until she knew of Dan’s true feelings. Much to our dismay, Dan is able to convince our number one “it girl” that he does in fact love her…OHHH PLEASE. If there is anything that #GG has taught us over the years, it’s that people like “Dan Humphries” don’t end up with a “van der Woodsen.” Give it up, call, … I don’t know, Vanessa, settle for her. Help me, help you, lonely boy.
- CHAIR Wedding.
Yes everyone, if for some reason you’ve been cut off from society for the last four weeks and didn’t know that Chuck and Blair have officially tied the knot. I always pictured Blair’s wedding to be big, but in no way did I imagine it in the middle of a park, ending in Chuck leaving the ceremony in handcuffs. And hey, nothing says “congratulations” like the inability to testify your newlywed in a manslaughter trial, and luckily for the happy couple, the charges were dropped soon after. Yay?
- Gossip Girl is a man.
Really CW… really? XOXO –DAN HUMPHREY? After six seasons of ambiguity and guessing, Gossip Girl himself was finally revealed as none other than Dan after he gave his notes to Nate for a publication in The Spectator, admitting to the world his alter identity as our favorite infamous blogger. Who knew that New York’s biggest outsider was the ultimate insider? Kudos to you Lonely Boy, I guess we’ll have to apologize to Dorota for the false accusations.
For those of you who aren’t ready to say goodbye to the show that changed the world, Gossip Girl marathons will be playing all week on the CW. We are all going to miss the bullying and scheming of Blair Waldorf, the line “I’m Chuck Bass” being said every three seconds, and the Easter egg colored wedding attire of CHAIR, but it is time we say farewell to the CW’s best show to date, and officially declare the end of our childhood. XOXO, Gossip Girl.
