What did you think of last night’s episode of Gossip Girl, ‘The Treasure of Serena Madre’?
I can’t think of a better Thanksgiving recipe for disaster than the guest list for Rufus and Lily’s dinner party. What a perfect storm. I don’t even know where to begin with the dinner to let me come back to that in a minute. This Gossip Girl Thanksgiving I was most thankful for Blair – she is so awesome!
Here are my favorite Blair quotes of the night:
Blair to Serena ‘then what are you exactly, an 18 year old blonde coincidence’?
Dorota to Blair ‘it’s private’. Blair to Dorota: ‘The INS tip-line isn’t’.
Blair to Jenny: ‘Where are you dragging me, haven’t you heard of the `whisper aside’?
Okay, so now let’s talk about some of the events that transpired at dinner. What does everyone think about Trip and Serena? I was so happy when Nate outed them and they split up for a second. FINALLY I thought, Serena does the right thing. I really wanted to see her with Nate or on her way to Paris with Blair at the end. Why does nothing turn out like I want it to? Even though Trip is pretty cute (in a smug, preppy sort of way) he’s married!!! Ug, Serena.
Also, does anyone have any guesses as to what was in the letter from Serena’s dad? I’m at a loss here but I can only guess it juicy. I wonder when Rufus is going to realize how evil Lily is? She always seems to be hiding some big dark secret (ex: having a son with Rufus). I can’t wait to see what Maureen does with this letter.
Out of all the other plots going on, I was most interested in the possibly of Dorota being pregnant. I hope there are good things in store for her. She might be the only good person on the whole show. So, since this was such a great episode tonight, I can’t wait to hear what you thought of it, so drop me a line and let me know your take. Talk to you next week. XoXo!

Gossip Girl
star Blake Lively will spend her post-Thanksgiving week with the cast of Saturday Night Live, which she is set to host on December 5.
Will Lively be a giggly, coasting-on-her-looks host like January Jones two weeks ago, an eager to please entertainer like last week’s Joseph Gordon Levitt, or something else entirely?
For that we’ll just have to wait and see–and it’s hard not to be curious, given Lively’s lack of acting experience in the comedy department. (Unless you count certain episodes of Gossip Girl
season 3…)
This won’t be the first time that Lively has appeared on Saturday Night Live, but we’re absolutely certain that, at some point during her program two weeks from now, it will be the funniest. Way back in September, she popped up during a digital short with then-host James Franco to deliver one, solitary “so expected and juvenile, I forgot to laugh” sort of line. But SNL‘s writing isn’t her fault, so let’s not hold it against the lovely Ms. Lively.
Tune in to see what the SNL folks can get Blake Lively to do, December 5 at 11:30 PM on NBC.
