Gossip Girl Season Two Premiere

This show was my guilty pleasure all through last year. I technically had work while the new episodes were broadcast, so I made an art out of getting out early to try & catch at least the last ten minutes. I have been waiting all! summer! for this premiere. After watching, I remembered something crucial that my summer of nostalgia for GG made me forget: the show is never as good as I want it to be. I want to be freaking SCANDALIZED everytime I watch this show, but it's often plagued by more valleys than peaks. A lot sort of happened in the season premiere, but a lot of new storylines were inserted and it's going to take me a little while to warm up and care about them. And can we please not have this show be about mentorship? Whether you're a an aspiring writer or a designer's peon, I really don't care about how it's going at work. I care about how you're going to viciously plot against all the other rich little scions in your world. So get to it, gang!
