Dear caitiedidit,

(and reenalaughalotz,)

I've watched roughly the first six episodes of Gossip Girl. I am not necessarily engrossed, but it's entertaining in a teen soap opera sort of way. I lost track of who everyone was in the first episode and spent the next five trying to sort that all out, and the characters don't seem to have much actual development yet, but the plot isn't ( Read more... )

I do not WHOLEHEARTEDLY disagree. I think they are really different. I just like the show better.

Also, isn't it funny how the show totally turned Jenny on her head, in that she idolizes Blair and wants to be her/be her BFF? Whereas in the books, she is OBSESSED with Serena. Drawing pictures of Serena, wearing Serena's bra, etc.

I'll tune in for season 2, I think. I've had a couple of WTF episodes, but I'm most of the way through the first season now and I'm still entertained.

I like looking at the clothes and the hair. I LOVE both Blair and Serena's hair. Love it.

You're liking it more than I expected you to. BUT WAY TO PICK THE WRONG SIDE. :P

Hmm. After watching more last night (I think I'm up to 11 now?), I'm beginning to like Blair a bit more. I thought she was just this raving bitch at first but she's really very... emotional, sensitive, and she always seems to get the shit end of the stick (except for being a rich princess, but whatever). I think I like the adult drama (this whole Lily-Rufus-Allison thing is hilarious) a little better than the high school drama, if that makes any sense.
