Gossip Girl Round Table: "The Grandfather: Part II"

While our Gossip Girl forum buzzes with fan reactions, the Insider staff is here to discuss burning questions, funny quotes and hot moments from last night.

Welcome to this week's Gossip Girl Insider Round Table!

Gossip Girl topics from "The Grandfather: Part II" include classic lines, political drama, choosing sides, dubious events, and next week's "OM3" moment ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: Vanessa's stinging critique of Nate and his lost "moral compass" forced me to look in the mirror and re-examine my life. Is it best spent cracking wise about a drama on The CW? Thank you, V.

Gossip Guy: I'm not sure if it was the quote or the whole scene, but when Blair called Serena out for being a prostitute and S responded by shoving her face into the cake? So Gossip Girl, so awesome.

Mister Meester: Dan, in response to his sick sister coughing, saying that he needs a SARS mask. Only Dan would bust out a 2003 news story reference in the midst of the current, more severe H1N1 flu pandemic.

2. Team Serena or Team Blair?

DANdy: Team Serena. I was on Team Blair until The CW previewed Leighton Meester's "Somebody to Love" music video. Yikes! The only thing she should be doing in the back of limos is straddling Chuck.

Gossip Guy: Sorry Blair, I'm gonna have to go with the boobs on this one. Plus Serena really didn't do anything that wrong in my opinion and did apologize to Blair. Did I mention she has a great rack?

Mister Meester: Team Blair. Yeah, she's being a little too hard on S, and considering this is a frenemy fight that will be resolved eventually, she wins by virtue of having the best zingers. Plus, look at my username. I'm biased.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "How to Succeed in Bassness"

Welcome to the Gossip Girl Insider Round Table!

With our Gossip Girl forum abuzz with fan reactions, the Insider staff is here to discuss burning questions, funny quotes and hot moments from last night.

Gossip Girl topics from "How to Succeed in Bassness" include the two sides of J, a missing V, various plot holes and the major backstabbing yet to com ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: Any time Dorota offers chess advice, while vacuuming Blair's dorm room, she'll earn this honor.

Gossip Guy: I loved all the Endless Knights lines throughout the whole episode but if I had to give an exact quote, it'd be the dialogue between KC and Serena at the end of all people. Serena claiming dating Roberts wouldn't be work and KC saying to call her after the second date. That tugged at my funny strings. Whatever those are.

Mister Meester: Blair's offer for Serena to help publicize a "members-only club SO exclusive it makes the SoHo house look like one of those dirty public schools with numbers for a name." So rough, in a hilariously condescending tone.

2. Do you prefer wholesome Jenny or Jenny the bitchy sellout?

DANdy: Can we see a photo of each option before deciding? I'll go with whichever Jenny wears less make-up.

Gossip Guy: Definitively wholesome Jenny. I've never been a huge fan (don't get me wrong, she's still 10,000 times better than V), but my favorite part about Jenny has always been her friendship with Eric. I can't believe she'd sell the poor kid out.

Mister Meester: It sucks to watch J ditch Eric for those losers, but watching her internal conflict is pretty compelling. At some point, the good Little J will prevail. Meanwhile, at least mean girl Queen J is making things interesting.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "Enough About Eve"

Welcome to the weekly Gossip Girl Insider Round Table!

As the Gossip Girl forum lights up with your thoughts, the Insider staff assembles to discuss burning questions, funny quotes and hot moments from last night.

Gossip Girl topics from "Enough About Eve" include Nate's scheming skills, Chuck's dalliances, Carter's disappearance, Vanessa's ... um, existence and more:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: Pretty much anything out of Chuck's mouth, but I'll go with his calm reaction to kissing a man: Do you really think I've never kissed a guy before?

Gossip Guy: LOL, I dunno why, but I loved Blair going to Lily for maternal guidance and responded with, "Where'd you learn to give a pep talk, Guantanamo?" Speaking of which, WTH is Eleanor? She couldn't show up for Lily's wedding or Blair's toast? I know Cyrus is an entertaining man, but can't you leave his side for a second?

Mister Meester: I love that Blair would openly call Vanessa "a tired cliche from the 718" planning "preachy I-hate-the-man talk," and "some girl with tacky accessories who lives to recycle." Girl does not mince words!

2. Who would you have chosen to give the toast?

DANdy: Rufus. We've seen the kind of waffle spread he's responsible for; it's safe to assume he'd do wonders for any toast, as well. (Thank you. I'll be here all day!)

Gossip Guy: I'd go for the celeb factor. NYU needs money. As webmaster of a celebrity gossip site, I can tell you they bring in more than hippies or Queen B.

Mister Meester: Blair Waldorf. Just to see if she'd zing Vanessa during the speech. Or if anyone would actually stay awake through the Napoleon zingers.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "Rufus Getting Married"

Welcome, Gossip Girl fans, to the Gossip Girl Insider Round Table!

As the Gossip Girl forum explodes with buzz, the Insider staff comes together to discuss the burning questions, classic quotes and hot moments from last night.

Gossip Girl topics from "Rufus Getting Married" include memorable lines, surprising twists, dubious plot holes, the enigma that is Carter and next week's promo ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

LovelyLively: Georgina nonchalantly admitting that she drugged poor Scott into telling her his life story. Michelle Trachtenberg is so awesome.

Gossip Guy: Oh man, I loved all of Blair's snide comments in front of Bree at dim sum. Like about Southerners' penchant for slavery. LOL.

Mister Meester: My inner cheeseball is going with Rufus' "we leap" speech, Lily's confession that Rufus is "the best man and father I have ever known," and Scott tearfully pleading for his parents to be together. Sorry guys. I'm lame.

GG RT Logo

2. Was this the best episode of the season so far?

LovelyLively: I'd have to say so. The four previous episodes culminated in a great one last night. It had humor, romance, deception, and Georgina being delightfully, bat$h!t insane. Talk about loving to hate someone. Also, kudos to the writers for Carter's story line being so much better than last season's.

Mister Meester: Yes. Because it was entertaining from beginning to end with little filler, people actually acted like they had brains, several important story lines were wrapped up, and next week was teased in exciting fashion.

Gossip Guy: Duh, of course. My man Rufus finally got back his pair from season one and locked that $h!t down.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "Dan de Fleurette"

As fans sound off in our Gossip Girl forum, the Insider staff members come together each Tuesday to discuss the burning questions, classic quotes and scandalous moments from the previous evening's episode.

Welcome to the Gossip Girl Insider Round Table!

Hot Gossip Girl topics from "Dan de Fleurette" include memorable lines, guest stars, the glory that is Chair, the reign of Jenny and next week's wedding ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: Did Chuck really cite Dumbo at the end? That clearly wins.

Gossip Guy: Look, I live in Florida so pretty much all I wear is sandals, but I'm sorry, every line related to this by Chuck and and Blair was priceless. Chuck: "What do you expect from a place where men wear sandals?" Blair: "By the way, sandals are not shoes!" Good stuff.

Mister Meester: I loved Chuck's overdramatic, inspiring pep talk to Jenny, the girl from Brooklyn "who went toe-to-toe with Blair Waldorf and actually won her respect. You can't tell me that girl still isn't there ... Now that the dream is real, you owe it to her to live it." Barack Obama would be proud.

2. Tyra Banks and Hilary Duff: Good fun or cheap stunt?

DANdy: Good fun, for this reason: by starring opposite these dramatically-challenged stars, the acting skills of Blake Lively were actually on greater display than her cleavage. It was a welcome change. For one week at least.

Mister Meester: At least Tyra provided unintentional comedy with her overacting. I actually found much-maligned Hilary's character kind of cute with Dan.

Gossip Guy: Tyra Banks was beyond painful to watch. Now maybe it's because I've never seen Hilary Duff in her prior work, but I absolutely loved her. Maybe it's stunt casting to those Lizzie McGuire fans, but to me? It's was just an adorable girl I can't wait to see with Dan. Yeah, I said adorable.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "The Lost Boy"

While you sound off in our Gossip Girl forum, our staff members analyze burning questions, classic quotes and scandalous moments from the past episode.

Welcome to the Gossip Girl Insider Round Table!

Hot Gossip Girl topics from "The Lost Boy" include memorable lines, foiled plots, the mysteriousness of Carter, the absence of J and future guest stars ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: Gotta show Gossip Girl herself some love here: Her closing line, about bringing everything back to the auction, was brilliant.

Gossip Guy: I suppose it wasn't a quote per se, but my favorite line goes to Chuck and his expression when Blair took off with his shoes. Classic talk-to-yourself moment: "She stole my shoes?"

Mister Meester: Georgina, on Chuck and Blair hitting it: "Judging by the size of the sock on the doorknob, I didn’t want to knock."

GG RT Logo

2. Who were you rooting for at the auction, Blair or Chuck?

DANdy: Serena's boobs. I was on the edge of my seat, waiting for them to bust out of that dress.

Mister Meester: Blair, because I wanted to see Chuck react after saying he couldn't be outbid, then losing to someone he can't really get mad at or plot revenge on anymore. The new dynamic of Chair as an item is great.

Gossip Guy: Definitely Chuck. Secret society shmiety. A boy has got to earn a living if he's gonna bring the bacon home to Blair.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "The Freshmen"

As you sound off in our Gossip Girl forum, our staff members analyze the burning questions, classic quotes and memorable moments from Monday night.

Welcome to the Gossip Girl Insider Round Table!

Hot Gossip Girl topics from "The Freshmen" include memorable lines, dubious scenarios, shady characters, Dan and Georgina and a whole lot more ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

LovelyLively: Gotta go with this: G: "Jesus and I have redefined our relationship." B: "You mean he dumped you because He found out you were Satan!"

Gossip Guy: Hehe, I loved when Chuck compared a college degree to an accessory like a Malawi baby or a poodle. Nice. A close second was Blair's general shock when she heard that Dan was a writer.

Mister Meester: The exchange that almost made up for a Chair-less episode, with Blair crawling in bed next to a sleepy Chuck and saying "You were right about the dorms. The lighting is awful. You okay?" Chuck's reply? "I am now."

GG RT Logo

2. Who do you trust least, Carter, Scott or Georgina?

LovelyLively: Carter. This guy was a shady character for first two seasons, and now we're supposed to believe he has no agenda? Not buying it ... he's hot though.

Mister Meester: I can't figure Scott out and Carter seems genuine with Serena, so I'm taking Geor-gi-na. We all know she's a head case just looking for an excuse to forget to take her meds one day, causing all hell to break loose.

Gossip Guy: Absolutely Scott. It may just be his absolutely horrible acting, but it seems like that man is hiding more than just the fact he's Rufus and Lily's kid.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "Reversals of Fortune"

As readers sound off in our Gossip Girl forum, it's the Insider's turn to analyze the burning questions, classic quotes and memorable moments from the Season 3 premiere. Our Tuesday tradition is totally back!

Welcome to the Gossip Girl Round Table!

Hot Gossip Girl topics from "Reversals of Fortune" include memorable lines, Chair's sexy antics, Nate's family drama, rich boy Dan, the jet-setting wild child known as Serena and the semi-useless enigma known as Vanessa.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: Blair's observation that a model "looks like she needs a sandwich." Clearly a jab at new, fellow CW star Mischa Barton (of The Beautiful Life).

LovelyLively: I'm going with a series of quotes in which we learn that Serena hooked up with Cristiano Ronaldo and possibly Prince Harry, while Chuck once hit it with Ivanka Trump. Man these Upper East Siders get around!

Gossip Guy: Almost all my favorite quotes were uttered by Dan this episode. The guy was on fire! In particular I loved when responded to Vanessa's comments about $100 bills with "Do you know how hard it is to break one of those things? I don't know why they even make them." I've made the same cheesy joke when I was pretending to be rich off my singular $100 bill! Love that guy.

Mister Meester: Cheesy as it was, Chuck really got me with "I'm not Chuck Bass without you." How can you not love new, mutually-in-love Chair?

GG RT Logo

2. Chuck and Blair's game: Hot, boring or asking for trouble?

DANdy: Boring! The best they come up with is Chuck flirting with a girl and Blair interrupting his supposed infidelity before it's realized? Please. Chair can do better. Seems like this was only invented to confuse viewers at the outset.

Mister Meester: Hot! As the man himself said last season, what do you expect, Chuck and Blair go to the movies? He likes hitting on girls, she likes putting inferior ones down. Everyone wins! Whatever helps them spice it up.

LovelyLively: Asking for trouble. Serena nailed it when she talked about the slippery slope. Fortunately, both Chuck and Blair seem to realize there's a time and place for games, but simply being together can be exciting too.

Gossip Guy: I'm gonna be honest, it made me kind of uncomfortable. But whatever, Chair is still the hottest couple ever and Chuck even proved how romantic they were when he told Blair "I'm not Chuck Bass without you."

Gossip Girl Round Table: "The Goodbye Gossip Girl"

While readers sound off in the Gossip Girl forum, it's Gossip Girl Insider's turn to analyze some of the burning questions, classic quotes and memorable moments from last night's episode, as is our staff's Tuesday afternoon custom.

Welcome to the Gossip Girl Round Table!

This week's hot Gossip Girl topics from "The Goodbye Gossip Girl" include memorable lines, Chair's declaration of love, the mysterious Scott, and predictions for Season 3 ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: This goes to Dan, for the most irrational diss of the night, as he breaks off a friendship with Serena by asking: "When you think about it, what's really keeping us together?"

Gossip Guy: Call me sappy but I loved the Chair exchange at the end where Blair asked him to say I love you a second time. They were so damn cute together!

Mister Meester: The scene at the end was obviously terrific, but I loved these two earlier Chair exchanges: 1. Blair: "We need to talk". Chuck: "I prefer to talk after." 2. Blair: "I haven't seen you in awhile." Chuck: "Have you been looking?"

gg-rt.jpg

2. What took you by surprise the most last night?

DANdy: The use of Gossip Girl as an actual character. It didn't really work for me. I'd prefer if the show simply used Gossip Girl as an anonymous, unique sort of narrator. The anti-Meredith Grey, if you will. Leave her alone, Serena, and just focus on your next, revealing outfit.

Mister Meester: Vanessa going to NYU came out of nowhere, though I guess they had to keep her around somehow. Georgina's unexplained caper-solving and enrollment at that same school came as a bit of a surprise, too.

Gossip Guy: Chuck returning from his European adventure with gifts for Blair! OMG. Though Georgina going to NYU and requesting Blair has her roommate? Pretty phenomenal.

Gossip Girl Round Table: "Valley Girls"

You've sounded off in our Gossip Girl forum at great length. Now it's the Gossip Girl Insider staff's turn to come together and analyze the burning questions, classic quotes and memorable moments from last night's episode, as is our Tuesday custom.

Welcome to the Gossip Girl Round Table!

This week's hot Gossip Girl topics from "Valley Girls" include memorable lines, the pros and cons of '80s Lily, Nair's breakup, Derena's future and next week's finale ...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

1. What was your favorite Gossip Girl quote from the episode?

DANdy: Carol's reference to a music video as equating to "national exposure [and] the birth of a new art form." This was true for awhile on MTV, but the network then killed the music video in favor of people such as Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt. I blame you for their existence, Carol.

Gossip Guy: Can I actually go with the whole exchange of Dorota bringing the dress to Blair instead of a quote? I guess if we had to limit it to just a quote, I'll go with the "This body bag, corpse not pretty" as she held up the dry cleaning bag.

Mister Meester: I love my celebrity gossip, so it's gotta be Blair's observation that "Serena's been in jail for four hours, she's already served more time than Lindsay Lohan and Nicole Richie combined!" She must think these up in advance.

gg-rt.jpg

2. Did Blair break up with Nate for the right reasons?

DANdy: Yes. There are always three acceptable reasons for a break up: infidelity; a sex change; and clearly being in love with your boyfriend's BFF.

Mister Meester: While I agree with Gossip Girl that our queen was with the wrong king up on that stage, it still seemed a little sudden and forced to me. Nate received virtually no explanation, nor did he ask for one. Perhaps without devoting half the episode to flashbacks, this could have been developed better.

Gossip Guy:  No. The right reasons were because he's not Chuck, but at least she made the choice in the end.
