Nelly Yuki in a Fat Suit!

The previews for tomorrow night’s new episode look so funny! I love the one where Dorota yells at Chuck in her language lol.  The look on Chuck’s face was priceless!

You know what else is priceless? NELLY YUKI IN A FAT SUIT! omg I saw the newest sneak peek clip and I really feel like I just died and went to heaven seeing Nelly like that.  Thank you Josh Schwartz for this Godly gift lol.

Nelly Yuki, you go girl! Tell Blair how it is! I am so excited to see the turnout of tomorrow’s episode!!!!!!!

Sue Me!

So I’ve been pretty awful with the Gossip Girl recaps. 

Work has been a serious pain and I tried to DVR the episodes that I missed but OF COURSE my dvr decided to screw me over!

I just got home from my best friend’s house because she, so sweetly, helped me record the episodes I missed! This is one of the many reasons why she’s my best friend lol.

Okay, so I wasn’t too thrilled with the past few episodes besides the fact that Nelly Yuki rocks and I’m finding myself more and more addicted to her.

What the hell is going on with Blair Waldorf?! Miss “Queen Bee”? She wins the whining award by far. Blair’s been complaining about EVERY single thing! It’s really so annoying! Honestly speaking, I am THRILLED that Nelly Yuki told the headmistress that blair was the one who sent that tip to Gossip Girl about Ms. Carr.  

Now moving on to Ms. Carr.  I liked her at first but then she started to get on my nerves too.  I could NOT BELIEVE that she and Dan slept together! REALLY?!?! There are middle school kids watching this! that was a real O-M-G moment.  ugh!

But to be fair, Blair really asked for it.  She brought all this havoc upon herself.  NO ONE talks to their teacher like that or treats their teacher the way Blair does. Yea yea…Blair tried apologizing to Ms. Carr but what’s the point of saying sorry when you should’ve thought about your actions beforehand? I’m sure a lot of Blair lovers would beg to differ, so SUE ME!

Dan and Serena…BORING! as usual! Its sad because I really have nothing to say about them.  They should be thrown in with the Vanessa category, although I’m not so sure her boringness even deserves a category.

Chuck? and that mysterious girl?! Are they serious!? Producers were obviously trying to distract us from chuck and blair but it’s inevitable.  writing about some “eyes wide shut” storyline about chuck and some random girl will only piss off the fans of CB!

So that’s all I have to say about the last three episodes. Don’t like it?

SUE ME!

The End of Chuck and Blair

chuck-copy
Work has been a pain lately and I FINALLY managed to watch Gossip Girl.  Thank God for dvr. 

So another really great episode of Gossip Girl.  I swear..it’s getting better and better.  GREAT JOB to the writers! 

so let me explain my title.  Obviously, like a million other people, I am in love with Chuck and Blair.  I’ve been hoping to hell that they’d get together when GG returned after the break but the writers keep dragging it out and it’s starting to piss me off!

When Chuck came to Blair’s place and apologized, she didn’t forgive him and threw the flowers right back. Yes people, it’s true. Blair actually rejected him after apologizing with those dreamy eyes and suave voice. Well on the other hand, Chuck kind of asked for it after he stood Blair up for a bunch of fugly girls drowned in hideous animal skin. WHO IN THE RIGHT MIND WOULD DO SUCH A THING!?

Yes, it’s true. Chuck missed a hot piece that night. Idiot! They BELONG together! Oh well, he tried to apologize and he was so sincere and genuine about it. Oh and did I mention that I cried? Bawled, to be exact. Leighton and Ed have such f-ing amazing chemistry. love love love it!

So moving on to my next favorite character ever on Gossip Girl..Nelly Yuki! She was amazing for pulling out some James Bond/Mission Impossible moves by stealing Dan’s phone. Something at first I thought was kind of unexpected, which was why I thought it was so great. But I had a sort of deja-vu right after and realized that this wasn’t her first time stealing a phone! In episode 16 of last season, she helped Blair steal a gay guy’s phone and that’s how we all found out that Eric Van der Woodsen is gay. THANK YOU NELLY! (YUKI!) Nelly Yuki!

The “mean girls” better start treating her better. I hate them so much. They always make NY do the dirty work without giving her much credit at all.  Alas, it’s only a show.  I must calm down because I’m taking this a bit too seriously.  Oh well, screw that! I LOVE GG! My absolute favorite show EVER! 

Kay, next we have Eric.  He was talking crap about Jenny to Serena.  It wasn’t really crap at all since it was pretty true..Jenny is really annoying at times.  I liked that brother-sister talk thing going on. Oh dear Jenny, haven’t you heard? Third wheels aren’t welcomed with any relationship!

Lily and Rufus got right down to business.  I feel a little relieved because I definitely sensed the sexual tension between them and wanted them to get it over with lol. Anyway, I felt so bad about their child.

Another thing I’d like to note is how sweet Nate and Blair were to support Chuck at the reading of his father’s Will.  Jack Bass is an ASS!

I can NOT wait for the next episode although I am a little confused as to why the storyline is all about a teacher now…well, I’m sure it’ll be amazing as always.  Till next time!

Don't mess with Nelly Yuki's bag of candy!

Mother Chucker and Nelly Yuki’s Game

Um okay so how UH-MAZING was last Monday’s episode?!? I really have no excuse for blogging such a late recap but I swear to the bear that I was really busy!

Anyway, I must say that Blair and Chuck were fantastic. As always.  They never fail us.  Leighton Meester is beautiful in a classic way which I love by the way.  And Ed Westwick has that hard look, that bad boy attitude about him.  So seeing his vulnerability on the ledge was so heartbreaking because it just goes to show how much Blair means to him.  And the same with Blair, the way she’d drop EVERYTHING for him! Ugh, so sweet!  When Chuck looked like he was about to fall off the building, my heart almost flew out of my chest. Obviously the writers wouldn’t stupid enough to cut out the best male character on the show, but still, they definitely got me! Lol. So let’s say hypothetically that the writers decided to axe him out of the show like Aaron Rose (THANK GOD HE’S GONE!!), I’d probably fall into a depression for about a good two weeks (at least). So writers, if you’re reading this, NEVER CUT HIM OUT!

Chuck and Blair

So let’s move on to the highlight of my night.  Nelly Yuki is back! (Well, she’s been back, but finally I get to see a lot more of her).  I found this review written by Tim Stack for Entertainment Weekly.  And he took the words right out of my mouth, “I love Nelly Yuki, so any chance she gets to pop back up is reason for celebration.”  Yes, yes, yes, Tim Stack! You tell ‘em!

It's Nelly Yuki!!

It's Nelly Yuki!!

 So the fact that Nelly Yuki (Yin Chang) played Jenny was brilliant because I never saw it coming and I doubt anyone else did either.  I enjoyed it because it shows that Nelly Yuki can be manipulative when pushed to the extreme.  Blair completely sabotaged her chances at getting a perfect score on the SATs (season 1, episode 15- “desperately seeking serena”) and that basically screwed up her shot at getting into Yale. Her whole life revolved around school and her goal of getting to Yale, so could you honestly blame the poor girl for wanting to go to the “collegiate party” where she would have a chance of mingling with the higher ups and probably find a way to get connections into an Ivy League? I would’ve done the same.  And once again, Tim Stack brilliantly says, “To be fair, if Jenny showed up at a club dressed in a metallic purple dress, I’d probably opt for the mean girls too.” Lol.

Which reminds me, whatever happened with the Yale plotline? The writers need to keep up with continuity here. I want to know what happens with Yale and the educational power struggle between Blair and Nelly Yuki.   By the way, I’m still waiting for that long awaited makeover. Writers better give us a makeover because I love those!!!! That’s the essential ingredient to a hit teen show!

After Nelly Yuki gets a makeover, she should donate all her glasses to Eric and they should become bff

I am really happy that Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen) decided to ditch the crazy eye makeup.  She finally looks YOUNG! YAY! And Eric (Connor Paolo), I enjoy his presence.  He brings a certain balance to Jenny, or should I say..stability. It’s nice and sweet.

Jenny and Eric= bff

 I really didn’t care for the “mean girls” (minions).  The brown haired girl will never be Blair Waldorf.  Blair will always be Queen.  So she needs to take it down a few notches and know her place because she bores the hell out of me!

 

Serena (Blake Lively) and Dan (Penn Badgley) are so boring.  I’d rather watch a commercial than watch their storyline lol. That’s how bad it is.  The good thing is, at least Serena dresses nicely and Dan is cute so that makes it a little less painful to watch their scenes.

 Come to realize it, I’d much rather watch Blair and Nelly Yuki scenes than Blair and Serena scenes because they have better on-screen chemistry in my opinion. I know there are quite a few other people who think that after reading quite a few blogs and comments on gossip girl threads.

Lily (Kelly Rutherford) and Rufus (Matthew Settle) love child?! Wow, I’m really curious now.  Whoever they get to play his character, they better make sure he’s HOT! Because Lily and Rufus are gorgeous!  Even though Lily and Rufus’s storyline is interesting, it’s not really helping Serena and Dan’s storyline.

Lily and Rufus.  Who's the love child?

No Nate and Vanessa.  I would much rather Vanessa be out of the storylines. She doesn’t add anything! I don’t feel any happiness or sadness or whatever with her.  Nate, they can keep just for eye candy.

 

Till tomorrow! can’t WAIT to see what Jack Bass (hot new uncle of Chuck Bass) did with Blair on New Year’s Eve! AHHH!!!!!!!! I seriously doubt they had sex or anything close to that.

Gossip Girl- In the Realm of the Basses

I am SO excited for tomorrow’s brand new episode of Gossip Girl! It’s called “In the Realm of the Basses”. AH! CAN’T WAIT!
Finally Jenny Humphrey ditches the horrible tranny makeup. She’s only 15 and she wore enough eyeshadow for the entire cast of gossip girl AND the OC.
Moving right onto my next topic, squeeeeee! NELLY YUKI is back! Josh Schwartz and Stephanie Savage need to make her a series regular. Please? I’d much rather see Nelly Yuki than Vanessa.
On that point, since WHEN did penelop get promoted to a bossy snob? She has no right to order Nelly Yuki (yes, we all must say both her first and last name).
What the heck did Nelly Yuki do to deserve that? I hope she gains some courage later on to stand up against her.
Come on Nelly Yuki! Your intelligence alone could annihilate Blair’s combined minions!
Any how, real happy that Jenny came to her rescue. Made me like Jenny more. I hope Nelly Yuki starts to hang out with Jenny and Eric more because it makes more sense.
That brings up another point- Eric and Nelly Yuki are the perfect best friends pair.
UGH! Still so mad about penelope making NY clean her shoe! NO NO NO! The writers need to make Nelly Yuki take off her glasses and beat the mean girls with it.
The promo for tomorrow’s episode looks amazing. “I’m Chuck Bass!” OMG Chuck BETTER NOT fall off that building! I know they won’t kill him off the show but AH! My heart almost lurched out of my chest when Blair screamed out his name.
Blair+Chuck= very happy Deirdre lol

CAN’T WAIT FOR TOMORROW!

Everyone turn on your tv tomorrow night at 8pm on CW channel 11!!
