2. Token Minority cast members

   I LOVE the show Gossip Girls, but there's just a few things that disturb me about the show.

   Since the show fails to comply to the book 100%, why couldn't one of the main characters have been Asian or Black or Latino?

   Okay, maybe that is a bit much for "American" telivision, Okay, but the show could have atleast given Isabel and Kati ( Blair's two token minority puppets) more lines and a slightly larger part in the series. Even the character of Vanessa Abrams is undermined  on the show.

   As I have already mentioned before, I think this is a great show for a young adult audience, the only thing I am afraid of is, that it's not for ALL adult audiences.

   The only reason that  Vanessa Abrams, Nicole Fiscella, and Nan Zhang were casted, we so that the makers of Gossip Girl could pull the "we're a diverse cast" card.

3. Penn B and Blake L

   See...here's my reasoning.

   Serena is a great girl, but she's still a spoiled brat, I don't think that Dan has enough to satisfy her. Even though Serena has changed a lot since her romp with Nate, I don't think she's good enough for Dan,  Dan and Serena aren't really even friends. They are just physically attracted to each other. It's different with Vanessa.  I mean, he's attracted to Vanessa AND they can talk about anything. Dan and Serena have a flame. And as we all know....flames burn out. I love Jessica Szohr (Vanessa) and I think that the show totally ignores her beauty. I think she is the prettiest girl on the cast. Vanessa is so myseterious, yet...relatable. Her and Dan are made for each other.

5. His band?

   Ed looks like he's the type to be in a band.

    

   He's probably just as mischevious as his character Chuck!
