Gossip Girl

So, in case you have not gotten the Gossip Girl bug, let me try to infect you. First of all they are replaying season one on the CW Monday nights at 8 eastern so there is no time like the present to get hooked. Unfortunately there has not been a DVD season 1 release date...trust me I've looked.



The synopsis:
Welcome to New York's Upper East side where the wealthy and connected mingle at benefits and try to deal with their always dramatic love lives, not to mention picking colleges. Blair Waldorf is the so-called toast of adolescence in her world; she and her friends, Kati Farkas and Isabel Coates, go to a prep school and fancy parties with their rich parents. Blair is envied by her adversaries because she is thought to have the perfect life, not just because of her gorgeous boyfriend, Nate Archibald, but because she's also planning on getting into her dream college,Yale. With everyone worried about college(or procrastinating on worrying, which everyone seems to be doing), and senior year dragging along, her seemingly perfect life is interrupted by her ex-best friend, the beautiful Serena van der Woodsen, coming back into town after getting kicked out of boarding school. Serena comes back into her life, and into the eyes of Blair's boy friend. When everything Blair knows starts to fall apart, everyone will realize that her life is far from perfect. Will life in the the Upper East Side redeem itself of what it's really supposed to be? Or will the false facade reveal that the rich have the same problems as the not so rich (Jenny and Dan Humphrey), if not more. And just maybe Jenny and Dan are all the more happy with their simple, not so expectant lives.

Basically the gyst is the story is based on the popular adolescent novels. The clothes are amazing, the plot lines are scandolous, and with Kristen Bell (r.i.p. Veronica Mars) as the voice of "Gossip Girl" who writes a gossip blog based on the overpriveledged teens you basically can't go wrong. Oh yeah, and did I mention how HOT everyone is?

ps it's all about the headbands...
