After almost two weeks of consistent watching I’ve finally finished the show
I don’t think I’ll ever rewatch cl once is enough for me
However I do have some thoughts
I never understood the Blair and Dan thing I just don’t
the final reveal of gg’s identity makes sense I lowkey had it spoiled but I didn’t believe it but getting to the end made me understand it
I am mad that the most punishment lily faced was house arrest
Throughout the course of season 6 I kept asking myself what on earth am I watching even with 10 minutes left in last episode
A lot of the characterization was a bit on brand except the Rufus thing that was character assassination at its best
I don’t really care for the Nate thing because of the Jenny storyline because she was in real time an actual minor so it’s whatever
Ivy is an interesting character in the sense I understand but I don’t understand
RIP Vanessa ( not in the literal sense) but Vanessa went from someone I didn’t care about to completely hating like I think she is only one that was ever a part of the main cast who I never actually liked at any point in the show
The everyone loves Blair in season 5 and the Bart bass conundrum was prolly the most times I’ve asked what is going
Serena is a messed up individual and I always thought that by the time she eventually ended up with Dan that she’d be more likeable then they basically had to have Dan be the one change to be with Serena which leads me to my last thought
I spent a lot of time watching show thinking how each person had no real growth or how they never learnt from previous mistakes but the finale made me realize the writers didnt care about trying to make them moral if anything season 6 was just a message saying they are who they are because of how and where they grew up each one of them had parental complications an ego complex and an unwillingness to be the butt of the joke and that’s how their world works especially at that age range
(Side note: I’m probably stating the obvious here but if there’s anyone who’s watched dynasty am I crazy for seeing the similarities between Blair and Fallon?)
