Let’s be honest, I started watching Gossip Girl to see beautiful people swan around beautiful places in beautiful clothes getting with other beautiful people. This show did not have a lot to aspire to. Surprise! It vastly exceeded my expectations with its risqué banter, themes of loneliness and popularity, and the dark past of its characters. So, I cast aside my initial evaluation and prepared to enjoy. Surprise! It is now hammy and convoluted. Whether this is due to what many former O.C devotees refer to as the S3 spiral of hell or the much-feared college decline, things have gone badly...
Every TV series has that one episode that everyone remembers, that provides mass debate and discussion and that is the authoritative commentary on what the show is about. For True Blood, I think that episode is 2-9 ‘I Will Rise Up.’

I want to let you in on a secret. I’m not who you think I am. In fact, my disguise is so thin, I’m surprised you haven’t seen right through me.
I’m the girl of your dreams masquerading as your bestfriend. Sometimes I want to rip off this facade like I did at the Spring formal, but I can’t. Because you’ll get scared and you’ll run away again. So I decided it’s better to live with a lie than expose my true feelings.
My dad told me there are two types of girls—the ones you grow out of and the ones you grow into. I really hope...
Ok, I know that there are many Dizzie fans, and I was kinda one of them but this is BEYOND A JOKE! (Sorry, there will be a lot of capitalisation as i am fuming!)
It is such a shame that a completely OUTRAGEOUS, UNBELIEVABLE, INSULTING storyline is used to try to a) attract viewers - sorry, not going to work, my 4yr attachment to this show is the ONLY reason that I am still watching b) create 'drama'
Denny is DEAD. As in D.E.A.D. As in GONE. As in BURIED IN THE GROUND. While Meredith was dying, there was some relevance to having him there. Plus, it was nice for the...
