It's Kind of Hard to Party After the Gay Bomb drops or Gossip Girl Episode 16 - All About My Brother  
Okay, to sum it all up, this episode of GG was AMAZING.  It was awesome and happy and sad and even scary and terrifying all rolled into one hour.  This is why I really wished that they would've stuck with 9 new episodes after the strike instead of five because you can clearly see that the writers tried to cram everything they had planned to show over 9 episodes into a 5 week timespan and even though this means more good stuff will happen in every episode up until the very end, it's way too rushed and too many things are going on for me to process.  I also can't bear to think that in just two more weeks, this show is going to wrap up their first season again and we'll have to watch endless reruns again until August when my head will explode.  Oh well, onto tonight's review! 
Now, as I've stated many times in my journal entries, I'm a Jenny fan.  Her stories were always the ones I'd read first when I got a new Gossip Girl book and watching her on TV as Little J made me like her even more.  But even I can't defend Jenny tonight as her behavior was awful.  She was acting just like Blair, so self-centered and stuck up and bitchy.  I hated how mean she was to Erik, calling him a liar at her party when he was trying to tell her that he was the one kissing Asher outside school that morning (btw, I hated that they couldn't show them kissing, just Asher's back) and then Jenny trying to say to him earlier that he had a crush on her.  WTF?  Big ego, Little J?  Seeing Rufus so upset about her broke my heart.  He was just trying to be a good Dad and she gave him no respect at all for it.  I loved how he and Lily teamed up though and had a lot of scenes together.  It was so cute when Lily was trying on her wedding dress and Rufus saw and Lily is all, "Is it too much?" and Rufus is all, "It's not the dress, it's you in it." Aww, so cute.  I love Lily/Rufus and you can tell that they still love each other.  
God, I fucking hate Georgie.  I hope she gets shot and dies soon.  First her pretending to be "Sarah" to the naive Dan and Vanessa, and then having the nerve to reveal that Erik is dating a guy right in front of everyone at dinner!  The girl has no shame really.  I felt bad for both Lily and Erik when it came to light and liked the scene they had together at the end about how love is love, no matter who it's with :). 
I also liked that Blair and Jenny finally made peace with each other and am glad that Jenny finally realized after being shunned by her cronies for lying to them about sleeping with Asher that she really couldn't make it in that world, being the Queen Bee.  I'm glad that Blair is back on top and you could tell she and Jenny both wanted to cry in that scene.  I also like that Jenny is back to being Little J.  I've missed her so :).  That crying scene she had with Rufus was total love. 
Okay so now the ending.  WTF?? Serena killed someone, as in someone died because of her?  Holy shit, that was not what I expected her to be telling Blair at the end.  Blair was all, "I'm your sister and I love you," and I was so ready for Serena to say, "I made a sex tape" and instead she says the three words I didn't expect to hear her say... 
"I killed someone". 
I think I screamed "WHAT?" while my mom's mouth dropped open.  I was actually truly scared hearing that.  Like, my legs went numb, that's how scared I was.  That had not been what I expected her to say at all and I think I'll be having nightmares about it all week no lie. 
I got to go to bed.  I'm getting up early to go to the polls to vote for the 1st time.  All you Indiana people, remember to vote tomorrow.  The polls are open from 6am-6pm and every vote counts!  Get Hillary out! 
You know you love me, xoxo, 
Andrea
