Gossip Girl

Hey, Upper East Siders, Gossip Girl here.

Every holiday movie has the same plot: girl unexpectedly meets boy, boy falls in love with girl, something tragic happens, boy and girl profess their feelings, they kiss passionately against the backdrop of a professionally decorated Christmas tree with fake snow falling around them.

With all the free time we have during this pandemic, so many of us are ripping through TV at a pace production companies can’t keep up with.

Anyone who knows me knows that I think Gossip Girl is the holy grail of terrible TV, and in these times, it has brought me a lot of comfort.

One of the things I love most about Gossip Girl is the slew of random characters whose sole purpose is to keep the plot interesting by shaking things up for our favorite four Upper East Siders and two annoying Brooklynites who endlessly complain about their unfortunate financial lot in life from their gigantic loft in one of New York’s most expensive neighborhoods.

Hey there Upper East Siders, long time, no gossip.

Cancel culture is by far the best thing to come out of the last decade.
