ew nooo. she is a total looser, boring and a pointless filler character. i am voting for her or papa archabald to kick that bucket later this season.

I live in Canada, so I already had the privilege of witnessing the episode. It was good, but my god, VANESSA IS SOOOOO ANNOYING. her voice sounds like shit.

I have no problem with Vanessa. I think she's a great addition to the cast. I have read 3 quarters of the first book so far and I can see why people don't like her character. It's only the 2nd season though and I'm sure they can work into her character. Just like they are doing with Jenny and Nate now and adding Aaron and Cyrus Rose into the tv show. I think people would like her a bit more if she had more interesting storylines. She must be a good addition to the group though if everyone hates her guts (for stupid reasons) for things such as Chuck using her to win a bet with Blair. How is that Vanessa's fault?
October 20th, 2008 6:23 PM
vanessa is so annoying blair should dig up something against vanessa or make something up that will make her regret trying to blackmail her
October 20th, 2008 6:44 PM
I think Jessica Szohr is beautiful. But yes, the show should get rid of her character, she only causes chaos (unless they can change her.) I don't see the point of the show having a character only for that.. yay for B returning to her old self! :)
October 20th, 2008 7:01 PM
I think her character is entirely too smart to fall for Chuck's crap. I really don't understand by people could hate her. She's the only one who's moral compass consistently points due north. What's wrong with you messed up people?
October 20th, 2008 7:17 PM
I agree. Vanessa is like the only character who hasn't screwed over someone else. She is the nicest character in the cast. Although that's why people dislike her because she is different from her book character. Although I'm sure this will eventually change.
October 20th, 2008 7:26 PM
sorry jdub, this is just my opinion but uhm
i don't call blackmailing moral..
but i do agree with ryan...that she's the nicest character in the cast..same with rufus minus sleeping with lily before she gets tied up in a knot.
My hopes for this episode--just one thing that I needed to see:
MORE CHUCK and BLAIR...
their romance is hyper. super.
October 20th, 2008 7:33 PM
I guess the biggest reason I find vanessa annoying is how shes nothing like her character in the book. I know that the producers alter the storyline but they completely changed vanessa...cecily von ziegesar feels the same way. also I didn't like it when she was with nate...I hope blair and nate get back together!
October 20th, 2008 7:39 PM
I don`t have a problem with Vanessa...and to be honest i don`t really care for her story lines cuz all i care about is CHUCK AND BLAIR!!! lol they are just soOo f-ing HOT together and OMG!!! i think all C/B lovers like myself have been waiting for this episode!!
I CAN`T WAIT!!
October 20th, 2008 7:42 PM
I have an idea. I think that chuck will care a bit about Vanessa, but still go collect his prize. I think he will ask Blair to say that 8 letter sentence, but she won't be able to. That's waht I think, but I hope that's not it! I want them together!!
October 20th, 2008 7:44 PM
If I was Blair I would just let Vanessa send the picture of the Lord, he was a total douche. It's to bad she cares too much about her rep.
October 20th, 2008 7:50 PM
ewww jenny and nate r a weird couple lol i like both their characters but its a strange couple
October 20th, 2008 8:42 PM
This show is starting to confuse me. The tables are turning around on almost everything.
October 20th, 2008 8:51 PM
For Vanessa no blackmailing is not moral but it is nothing compared to what Blair, Serena, Jenny, and the minions have done. She is the nicest person and always trying to help others but maybe later on in the season or next she'll get sick of it and rebel. Who knows.
October 20th, 2008 9:01 PM
yeah guys chill.it wasnt vanessa's fault.if theres anyone to "blame" its blair.she should have known that the plan could backfire.
anyway i hope chuck will be serious about blair already.its so obvious they havent got over each other yet.
especially chuck;p
October 20th, 2008 9:11 PM
What is the name of the song at the end of tonights episode when chuck denies Blair?
October 20th, 2008 9:12 PM
does anyone remember the quote gossip girl said at the end?
it was like..
people are like seasons they have the ability to change..
October 20th, 2008 9:14 PM
OMFG
why is chuck doing this to Blair
thye coan finally be together because blair has realized she likes him, and now he is just torturing her>>
Question: i am confussed as to why Blair wants Chuck so bad but when she is aked if she loves him she cant say it???
PLEASE SOMEONE TELL ME!!!!!!!
October 20th, 2008 9:18 PM
OMFG this is by far the best episode.... hahhaha i loved when chuck told blair he wants to heard those 3 words 8 letters... and she told him she was never gonna tell him that hahahahahahahhaha poor B hahahah they always says what goes around always come back around... sooo i think what's gonna happen with B it's called KARMA!!!!! sweet KARMA hehehehe
i liked the last scene of the bass| van der woodse family... i was missing chuck by the way!!!
i loved all the scenes between V and C... i know you might think is kind of gross but take it this way, we could see another side of this man candy Chuck... i just love him!!! soooo much!!!!!
October 20th, 2008 9:25 PM
I loved this episode! Don't worry, the relationship between C and V can go only as far as being friends, (if im wrong and they take it all the way then.. WOW. lol) but you can tell their building up a relationship and B is in total denial. I mean she asked him to say 'I love you' and she couldn't herself!
October 20th, 2008 9:25 PM
just when i thought Blair's life was going back to normal it all had to come crashing down again.
cant she ever be happy at least once?
i mean she works so hard for everything and they give her nothing i mean we all know she loves chuck but chuck should know too that its not that easy to say those three little words
what i find really weird is that it took chuck a long time to finally realize that he really likes Blair but then it takes him like a day to find out he likes Vanessa
I mean what the fuck is up with that
the only person i know chuck would go soft for is Blair, no one else.
October 20th, 2008 9:33 PM
i cannot really relate yet, coz i haven't watched it, i'm at work, and im gonna have to watch it later on my break thru my friend's tivo...
