Milo Sparks, son of Georgina Sparks, that's right! The only pleasant thing for me in this episode is the cameo. A great trigger for old Gossip Girl fans.
Z is no better than JC! Their war is so stupid. More precisely, this is the place to be, but NOT as almost the only and main storyline! JC made a speech at the end - she got out, but in fact did not say "Sorry" publicly.
@catherinnelev: it seems to me that such inserts (cameos) are being made to keep the huge fan base of the original gossip girl, because obviously there are a lot of such series as Gossip Girl reboot and they are not the most clingy. that's why they let us devour the glass covered with the beautiful packaging of the old version, but for me it looks very ridiculous. To be honest, I wish this series wasn't called Gossip Girl or associated with her. He's different than good, but it's like he's trying to cling to the past. I was pleased with this episode. I even shed a tear at some points, but I'm squandering it because watching 50 minutes like this is like this.
@catherinnelev: to be honest, it seems to me that we all write like this, but we still watch, although I catch such a cringe from the blonde teacher as the main "villain" behind the scenes.
@linoosya1998: I don't plan to quit, I don't like to quit TV series. I plan to watch the rest of the season (but this series is not a priority). I just understand that this is not the original gossip girl and the expectations were not fulfilled. It's just an average series with triggers...
@catherinnelev: Yes, yes, and yes again! Georgina's son is the best in this series) He's just like his mother)
I also find Zoey unbearably stuffy. The scriptwriters apparently wanted to show her as a cute little girl, with complexes due to bullying and the death of her mother, but for some reason she doesn't arouse sympathy at all.
P.S. The title of the series is like a reference to Twin Peaks)
Join us) That's what I did after the previous episode! And nothing will ever surpass the original) Even the way it's filmed now is boring! No beautiful frame((((
@PolinaKolganova: just the picture is great, but the plot is empty. Teachers-gossip girl is such a cringe. And there is no one antagonist like Blair or Georgina. And you're not afraid of Gossip Girl, because you know who it is.
My God, what kind of idiocy is with these JC friends?! They all talk about some kind of throne/status. Zoya and JC just exist, and her friends are like, you see, she came to class, she wants to take your throne…
Well, there can't be peace, friendship and gum in gossip girl. I catch myself thinking, if you do not link to the original, then it is quite possible to be. But it is not possible not to compare yet. I think, after all, it loses here by the fact that we know gossip girl and there is no intrigue. The meaning of the original was to find out who she was. It would be great if someone stole the teachers ' account and started guessing again. Ps and how did the physical teacher understand that this bunch is a gossip girl?
Well, not to say that they were constantly looking for her in the original. We made several attempts to find gossip girl, but just lived for ourselves.
It's like watching a TV series about Dori the fish, where they keep forgetting that they decided to stop fighting and agreed to live peacefully. It takes 5 minutes, and it's all over again. and there really aren't any reasons, what the hell is the throne? Blair and Serena had this rivalry felt in every cell of their body, that they were friends, but they couldn't stop competing, and here, for the first time, JC was known on the Internet, and did not "reign" on the East Side, as it was in the original. Is someone really quite following a blogger who publicly humiliates his little sister? Is this in our age, where you can't move so that you don't get scolded? and I finally understood what is incredibly annoying and why this endless falsehood is felt: Gossip Girl and modern tolerance are just antonyms at the molecular level. well, it's impossible to screw around, frame behind your back and betray (actually, that's what Gossip Girl consists of) and at the same time try to pull a hypocritically tolerant virtuous foundation on all this, where you need to be all-accepting, gluten-free and anti-discriminatory, it's just impossible. as a result, the series looks like the script was written by mentally retarded people. I just keep silent about the rest of the colorless characters. one stoned student slept with a teacher - is this normal for 16-year-olds, does it bother anyone? The other 4 episodes were played out so that we got the dialogue "are you gay? - I do not know," well, of course, the intensity of events is awesome. the toxic Obi that you take out and put down is good and sweet, otherwise I don't need you anymore - this is a separate story, but such guys are still considered good and generally the limit of dreams. and two girlfriends who spent "so many years" trying to promote the image of JC.
@valeries: You know, on the one hand it looks strange, but I work at a school and my school is one subway station away from my house. I go to the fitness club all the time, and I've already met three people from my school there. So such things are generally quite real.
Yes, I'm laughing more at how exaggerated it is shown in the series 😆 as if gay porn was turned on by chance, not gossip girl 😂 I'm also confused by the fact that the Persians are underage, if they were played by 16-year-old actors, and not 30-year-olds as usual, it would be uncomfortable to watch, I think
@valeries: In one of the first episodes, Max told the teacher that he was already of age. It doesn't negate the fact that the teacher-student relationship is wrong, but it's still better.
Why compare it with the original? I've reviewed it more than three times, no one is trying to "surpass" it here, and some people take it almost as a personal insult. You're setting your own expectations. The series is a bit boring, if only because it is 100% obvious that the whole current situation with various peace/friendship/love relationships will be short-lived and everything will change soon.
@eminence_grise: and even if it's not a sequel, but a reboot, it should still correspond a priori to the style and tone of Gossip Girl, as many have already written - as a separate work it would be quite OK (there's no question about taste), but to declare that this is a Gossip Girl reboot and give it out - well, FOR NOW
the most stupid conflicts. characters' decisions and opinions change more often than the outfits they wear. everyone is infuriating with their behavior, except Max and the teacher, and Aka Audrey - finally talked. fathers who now talk to each other normally and joke around are the best things that have happened in this series.
Too much of an "adult" plot for 15-16-year-olds (although maybe I'm one of those old men who says "and at this age I was thinking how to learn a verse for a change so as not to put a deuce and how not to get a cradle from my mother for coming later than ten in the evening lol") and too stupid and illogical for teachers.. Since when do teachers make a conflict out of the blue and it's really interesting how it helps them🙃
"Gossip girls" don't get fired up at all - they discuss everything out loud right at the party of the students about whom the posts are written. And no one, of course, hears 😅
apologizing, of course, but the teaching staff is annoying from the very beginning. the only one who aroused any sympathy was this teacher (who helped Max). I've been hoping all this series that they won't sleep together, because I hate the teacher-student line, BUT NO. Naturally, he slept with a student who had been stoned and obviously out of his mind for an unknown amount of time, just bravo 👏🏻
What a stupid conflict the sisters have, a war at the kindergarten level. Julien seems to be bipolar: sometimes she wants to take revenge and send her sister far away, then she becomes a cute and supportive sister. And so on in a circle. And these two shadows of Julien - does she even need them? I think she would have been much better off without them. I like Aki, Audrey and the teacher with Max. The latter, of course, look far from like a teacher-student, which makes it very easy to forget that Max is 16, as it were)
Honestly. Without comparison with the original, this series is weak. In many ways, the brain takes it out. I think if it wasn't for my love for the original, I wouldn't even look at it. Or I watched only one episode. I was just putting my hopes in. But I just can't and I don't see the point. So I'm just throwing it away. And in general if you think about it a bunch of adults are chasing the secrets of children are revealed…Dan that's understandable. It's not weird, it's creepy.
Do you also drink, smoke, take drugs, sleep with everyone, sleep with teachers, go to all kinds of parties where you drink, especially in the modern world, and not in 2000??? Or are you the teachers who are 25-30+ write gossip about their students whom you want to humiliate or why they want to finish it off, and their motive is not clear.
This series has gone somehow easier and more pleasant for two reasons: 1. The minimum of a gossip girl teacher on the screen. However, with her incoherent monologue and kringe facial expressions during the party, I still shuddered significantly. 2. A good reference to the "old" characters in the form of Georgina's son. He is such a small male version, also with compromising material, but already with modern methods: a culture of cancellation, etc.
Some misunderstandings with the character of Obi. He has been following his sisters stupidly for several series and sadly whines "Let's live together", while not expressing his own opinion particularly. The character has no background except for the title of "Prince" and the desire to defend someone's rights there in spite of rich parents.
Well, in general, the company of friends of chet I see does not really communicate with each other: one in a drug trip - everyone shits, the other two can not figure out their open relationships - everyone shits, the third publicly shits - everyone shits again. The most united in this series are two evil women-podsiraly.
The ending of the series pulls on the end of the season, as already mentioned above. They brought a straight line, although it is obvious that everything will get fucked up again in the next series.
@llnachtigall: I agree about Obi. I hope they'll tell us something about him, because it's like there's some kind of nouname, we don't know anything about him.
The party was reminiscent of a big party from gossip Girl, where Jenny first came, and the conversation between Audrey, aki and the guy from Andover was reminiscent of a scene from the Princess Diaries 2, where the characters "measured partners" in the presence of themselves.
Julien sobered up so instantly on stage... before that, she was almost falling off her feet, and then she spoke quite clearly.
I really don't understand, do the scriptwriters think that someone will perceive Luna and Monet as "cool beeches" like Regina George? they had gone overboard before, but considering bullying as some kind of compromise on the VICTIM of bullying is a whole new level)
The actress, who is Audrey, has an interesting appearance, but some kind of acting out... The Disney one. about the character's reaction to the fact that the man from the party is gay (and dared not tell the first person he met!!), I'm generally silent, is there really homophobia there, or what, with all the "sent justice" messages of the series?
On the other hand, if this is a deliberate attempt to show that there is often a lot of intolerance hidden in "progressive" guys, then I can probably praise them.
It's also interesting about Max, according to the teacher, he's also at the end of the series... Have you sobered up?
and it seems clear that the ten-year-old blackmailer was introduced for the sake of references to his mother (yelling from photos of Georgina on the wall, by the way), but... A ten-year-old hacker is a master of multi-pass?? I don't want to fall into a mess like that...
@clarymellarks: by the way, I'm glad that Zoey and Julian's fathers are not prescribed kindergarten classes about "you took her away from me" and they communicate normally, but is it possible to attribute this... to the general apparent "calm before the storm", which will be followed by a kindergarten teacher??
Everything is bad, starting with the discrepancy between the appearance and behavior of 16-year-olds, ending with the acting of a drunk schoolgirl who sobered up in a second
To be honest, I don't understand why I'm watching, it seems like the picture is beautiful and gossip girl, but you just can't compare it with the old series. It would be better to have a different name.
In general, it's interesting, even knowing the old gossip girl, that this is clearly not a happy ending, because as we know, something can happen again. Considering the fact that there are still 6 episodes ahead, I don't even know what else to slap. Of course, the war of the sisters is something, but for me it's more interesting to watch the relationship between Aki, Audrey and Max. I wouldn't be surprised if there are three more in the end.
Damn, it's really a series about bullying a sister for stealing some kind of glory, a throne, what is it anyway? And along the way, for the death of her mother, for which she is completely innocent?
But it's especially funny that Zee didn't even give a reason! She just went to school and started dating a guy, she doesn't run any blog, nothing at all. Why did these two purses see her as a threat to Julien's popularity)
I still don't see any reason for the sisters' quarrels, but the scriptwriters haven't shown anything else for four episodes already. And the other characters hardly reveal themselves or develop. It's really a pity, I was hoping for a decent story(
Probably I will grow an unpopular opinion, but the series eventually hooked me. The actors are beautiful and not cardboard, you believe your emotions. This episode even made me cry, especially when they shouted on the video-you killed your mother. I hope JC has become smarter and will eventually figure out the vile girlfriends. The chemistry of Max and the Teacher is Aww I want them more, with Audrey he does not have chemistry in my opinion, I can't understand what everyone is waiting for, supposedly new Cheir, but he has more chemistry with Aki than with her. The appearance of Milo is of course a nice bonus, for fans of the original, I went. In general, I'm waiting for what will happen next.
I don't know why I keep watching this, but for some reason I do. But everything is absurd and illogical, starting from teachers and ending with conflicts that have been sucked out of the finger. I'm sure in the next episode, both sisters will read Gossip Girl's new post and start their senseless war all over again.
I think the main problem with the series is that it tries to be modern, but at the expense of completely different things. They talk about patriarchy, they introduced LGBT characters, and at the same time they devote 90% of their screen time to damn social wars. It's just that none of the modern teenagers are doing this anymore, it's all left in 2009. The only adequate character against this background is Max, who blocked Gossip girl after 2 seconds and does not participate in this drama at all.
And yet in this series I didn't like any of the outfits, everything was also kind of outdated. How did Princess Nokia come out of 2002?)
I hope Milo Sparks will appear a lot in the next episodes, because so far this is the most interesting character of all. :) Anyway, I really liked it. A kind of trickster. The sisters are funny in their own way, but the conflicts between them, which are so artificially inflated, have already become boring in just four episodes. The vibes of rivalry a la Serena and Blair are completely absent from them. Which Zoey is JC's competitor? Someone is interested in her in the media precisely because she is JC's sister and Obie's new girlfriend. Speaking of Zoya. For some reason, I like her less than Julien. Julien seems to be more honest with herself first of all and knows that she is capable of doing a lot for her goals. Zoya seems to consider herself good and real :) But she quickly turns to the methods adopted in the world she finds herself in, easily succumbs to provocations, and so on. And at the same time, he justifies himself by "simply responding to attacks." So far, I'm more impressed with Julien than the two of them. The storyline with Audrey, Aki and Max is not about anything yet, it even looks kind of caricatured. Well, the teachers, to be honest, are just pathetic. They behave as childishly as possible, it is not surprising that the students do not respect them. The blonde (what's her name, Kate Keller?) in general, she behaves like an obsessive, she should visit a psychologist, and also stop frowning, finally, about and for no reason. She also seems to be one of the central characters in the story, but we don't know anything about her, and the whole "tragedy" of her story arc so far boils down to the fact that her wardrobe was ridiculed by J.C.'s girlfriends. In general, this is all some kind of nonsense, I wonder why I'm waiting for the next episode again...
I agree about Zoey. She seems more hypocritical than Julien. Considering everything that the latter has done for her sister - and helped to enroll in school, and gave gifts, and tried to introduce her into her circle, and Zoya not only twists her nose and constantly pretends that she is "not like that", but also stole her sister's boyfriend. Moreover, she also pretended throughout the series that her mother's death was just her tragedy, completely ignoring the fact that, in fact, her mother not only died, but also abandoned Julien at a tender age. But only Zoya has feelings. And all 4 episodes are being carried around with her, as with a written bag, trying to make Julien look bad, and Zoya in a white coat. She didn't even try to apologize to her sister for all the attempts to harm her. I find her more and more unpleasant with each episode, but Julien is more sympathetic because she knows how to admit mistakes and tries to change.
Damn, Georgina Sparks' son Just WHAT? But how I screamed from her photos with Putin and Ed Sheeran But most of all, I liked the picture of Blair on the wall. Who's a fan of her, Georgina or Milo? Hahaha
In general, I also grow an unpopular opinion, but in general it does not go down. And this is despite my passionate love for the original. Gossip Girl is the main series of my life, I'm not afraid to say it (from 13 to 18-19 for sure) and I've watched it many times.
Still, I don't think this restart is terrible. It's basically the same as most teen TV shows in this era. Actors who don't look like 15 teenagers are full of trash with drugs, sex, alcohol, parties (although it's the same in the original), but also shows a more open variety of issues of sexuality (but I'm always in favor of that)
I'm wondering who Georgina has become, what's hanging out with celebrities and high-ranking politicians👀 The fact that she's a media person is understandable, but here's the profession.
Batty top, generally handsome, the only ones who don't want to punch themselves in the face with the palm of their hand are just fierce grunts (I still didn't stop hoping for adequacy and at least a little motivation and plot)
Outfits, looks, makeup - everything does not catch on, in the original Gossip Girl, only Blair's headbands are a whole fashion story, but here there is somehow little time for new trends. The characters are also not interested, the evil girlfriends are unclear what they want and how they "work" on JC, they shot stories a couple of times, the rest of the time they just mess up, the bright teacher is very annoying, she also tries to communicate confidentially with Z when she leaks information about her in Gossip Girl. Well, the failings are with the fact that the teachers at the party are just shouting at the top of their voices about Gossip Girl, and at first JC came on stage and spoke into the microphone, and after the video with Z she was already without him, and everyone also heard her perfectly. In general, there is a strong desire to turn on a real Gossip Girl and plunge into that gorgeous atmosphere.
It gets more boring with each episode, somehow the scriptwriters can't correctly spell out the characters to make them interested, everything looks cardboard and artificial. I didn't think, by the way, that the teacher would break down so quickly, then it's not clear why it was necessary to pretend to be unapproachable, and to say that he doesn't sleep with students is worthless to his words. The quarrel and dirty tricks between the sisters look ridiculous, considering that Zoya is not interesting to anyone, it's as if Blair was sorting out a relationship with Jenny Humphrey, in the original she immediately crushed her, so it was not interesting to look at that confrontation. It's the same here - Zoya is not an equal opponent for Julien, especially since she is also her sister. I'm already fed up with this topic. The only plus of the series is Milo Sparks and the portrait of Blair.
Georgina's son is the best thing I've seen in this series so far. Well, the fathers, yes. Like a breath of fresh air. I'm looking at the background more and more often. I'll probably finish the season if I don't quit sooner.
What kind of throne, which Zoya captured from Julien, are the angry choruses even talking about? Are they really not friends there? Zoya does nothing but try to exist unnoticed at school so that she doesn't get kicked out, and these goats see her as some kind of threat... In general, Audrey seems to be a great friend for Julien, because they have more quality communication, and it doesn't come down to discussing how bad Zoya is. Julien also did everything so "sweetly" to herself at the end of the party: first she happily shows a video with Zoya, and then, without even apologizing, closes everything on herself again, saying, "I'm Bully, and now you have proof, and I won't do it anymore." Oh, how convenient. I changed my shoes on the spot, and everyone was like, oh, okay. Of course, you can kiss an unknown sister, not a millionaire influencer...
by the way, many people are unhappy that 15-16-year-old Max sleeps with a teacher, but in the second episode in the bathroom of the club Max says "I'm of age", which means that he is 18
I think it's dawned on me what this series is missing... Humor. Different, everyone. There was a lot of it in the original Gossip Girl. These are Blair's dialogues and monologues, banter and banter with Chuck, Dan's banter with Chuck, the cute flirty humor of Serena and Dan, jokes and banter within the Humphrey family - between Dan, Jen, Rufus... There were a lot of funny, grotesque situations... And here who will joke, Ake?... Or Zoya? Or Julian?.. there was hope for Max, but he also got into a tragedy
@ЮлияЩербина: I'll add my own comment... There were so many funny and sweet dialogues with Blair and Dorota, for example... And between Blair and Dan? :) When they haven't met yet :) and this one: "Why should we take you?" - "I'm Chuck Bass":) and these jokingly flirtatious dialogues between Rufus and Lily...) And Georgina and all her verbal exchanges with Blair are worth it!) All these characters can be quoted endlessly) I really miss irony, self-irony and jokes)
I don't know, but when I watch this Gossip Girl, I have associations with dry and cold Vogue. The gossip girl of the last generation was more sincere, or something. However, so far I am tolerable. Such series are needed as a respite between emotional series that you will miss. And I still like that, despite the fact that Gossip Girl is focused on the sisters, the directors show Max's feelings. Here it is a disclosure a la Chuck Bass. Well, the teachers and sisters are kringe.
Oh, and by the way, when Obie said that Zoya didn't care about what people said about her before, did I have a vtf? She's been worrying about what they're saying about her on Instagram since the first episode.
It would probably be easier to perceive the series if he wasn't trying to be that "gossip girl." Is memory really failing, and in the original, too, there were such "scandals" from scratch?... and teachers don't particularly cling with their motivation and behavior.
Boring, still stupidly boring. There is no beautiful picture, no logic in the plot. In fact, the way this series ended, you can end the season, or better yet, the series. There is not even an intrigue for the next series, highlights... There is nothing
@EmilD: Ahah, that's what I thought, too, when I saw Gossip Girl, that it was worse than Riverdale, which sounds absurd, considering what a bottom this series has broken.
Due to the fact that the actors playing schoolchildren look 25+, the connection between Max and the teacher seems to be quite normal, but if you imagine the situation with a real student aged 16-17, it's at least fu.
the series is very weak, even for me, a fan of teen series about school and love, it is very difficult to watch new episodes. All the conflicts seem far-fetched and as childish as possible, the love line is uninteresting, there is no spark that would make you worry about the main characters. I doubt I'll look any further.
I don't understand the popularity of this series. I didn't look at the original one. But this character is too hypertrophied, the characters' behavior is generally flat and contrived, they all have drama, they try to incite each other. Everything looks very unclear and stupid. I'll probably stop at this episode, I've probably outgrown such dramas, lol
It's a murky series, it pisses me off that everyone forgives each other so easily, it's kind of painfully disconnected from reality, somehow everything is too exaggerated and cloying, I thought even Max's teacher would marinate, but he also gave up on 3 episodes. For some reason, the feeling that the beautiful wrapper was not candy and turd.️ I'll finish 3 episodes and then I'll think about whether I need it at all🤔
I love the original Gossip Girl, but even in that series, I was surprised by the plot, the adults (who did nothing), and the overly adult problems, scenes, and experiences of the teenage protagonists. But this series transcends all boundaries of logic and common sense.
After 10 minutes, I really wanted to put 1/5 of this episode. The most disgusting dialogue between Zoey and Julien. The latter just wanted to congratulate her sister, and Zoey began to push and even "bully" from the very first seconds of the conversation. Well, I understand that she feels sad about her mother's death, but I'm not sure that this is a good enough reason to talk so disgustingly to a man who is literally glowing with sincerity at the moment. Okay, the gossip girl question is fair. But is it necessary to push like that? I don't think so.
After watching the episode, I'm ready to add +1 for the interaction of Jules and Zoey's fathers, and the reconciliation of the girls (although, of course, it looks as cinematic as possible). Their conflict was literally blown out of a molehill, and a huge one at that. They've made everything absolute, and Jules' friends are only too happy to help. Yes, we need some drama, some action, but against the background of rather gray characters, for me it's a lot.
I keep watching just to celebrate, and then, apparently, to break into the revision of the original Gossip Girl 🤡
I didn't understand the whole problem of the "war" between Zoey and JC at all. She dragged her sister, with whom she has a connection, to school. On the very first day, her friends were afraid of something.. A quiet girl from a poor family, younger, what kind of threat is she? Until the fourth episode, there was not even a hint that Zoey wanted some kind of power, influence and overthrow her sister (where to overthrow her, she's popular in insta, a model, what kind of competition are we talking about?". But at least the original showed what the competition was based on. Serena and Blair are both in the spotlight and pulling the covers over each other. Jenny comes like a simpleton, but suddenly turns out to be very ambitious and charming and really a threat. The only problem here is that the former JC somehow quickly rushed to the new one, but even this line of hostility is not surprising, they did not allow feelings to develop properly. So far, the scenario is kind of strange. But we'll see. Senya is still interested in a couple of Audrey and her undecided boyfriend
I also don't understand why the blonde is so obsessed with gossip girl. Has she been so caught up in just a couple of weeks? Did you feel like Dan Humphrey and want fame? Is it difficult for her to work and run Gossip girl? Well, don't be so active, there's no problem. Teachers are extremely strange.
It feels like I've been watching this series, even though I've been celebrating episodes in this app for many years. Some kind of endless feeling of deja vu, strange. Either I really watched it and just forgot to mark it, or I didn't watch the series, or something similar already happened.
Discussion: Season 1, Episode 4 Join the Discussion
114Z is no better than JC! Their war is so stupid. More precisely, this is the place to be, but NOT as almost the only and main storyline! JC made a speech at the end - she got out, but in fact did not say "Sorry" publicly.
Finally, this couple of three talked!
Max got what he wanted.
Everyone made up.
You can close the season on this episode.
Georgina's son is the best in this series) He's just like his mother)
I also find Zoey unbearably stuffy. The scriptwriters apparently wanted to show her as a cute little girl, with complexes due to bullying and the death of her mother, but for some reason she doesn't arouse sympathy at all.
P.S. The title of the series is like a reference to Twin Peaks)
I catch myself thinking, if you do not link to the original, then it is quite possible to be. But it is not possible not to compare yet.
I think, after all, it loses here by the fact that we know gossip girl and there is no intrigue. The meaning of the original was to find out who she was.
It would be great if someone stole the teachers ' account and started guessing again.
Ps and how did the physical teacher understand that this bunch is a gossip girl?
and I finally understood what is incredibly annoying and why this endless falsehood is felt: Gossip Girl and modern tolerance are just antonyms at the molecular level. well, it's impossible to screw around, frame behind your back and betray (actually, that's what Gossip Girl consists of) and at the same time try to pull a hypocritically tolerant virtuous foundation on all this, where you need to be all-accepting, gluten-free and anti-discriminatory, it's just impossible. as a result, the series looks like the script was written by mentally retarded people.
I just keep silent about the rest of the colorless characters. one stoned student slept with a teacher - is this normal for 16-year-olds, does it bother anyone? The other 4 episodes were played out so that we got the dialogue "are you gay? - I do not know," well, of course, the intensity of events is awesome. the toxic Obi that you take out and put down is good and sweet, otherwise I don't need you anymore - this is a separate story, but such guys are still considered good and generally the limit of dreams. and two girlfriends who spent "so many years" trying to promote the image of JC.
I work at a school and my school is one subway station away from my house. I go to the fitness club all the time, and I've already met three people from my school there. So such things are generally quite real.
The series is a bit boring, if only because it is 100% obvious that the whole current situation with various peace/friendship/love relationships will be short-lived and everything will change soon.
Girl, as many have already written - as a separate work it would be quite OK (there's no question about taste), but to declare that this is a Gossip Girl reboot and give it out - well, FOR NOW
everyone is infuriating with their behavior, except Max and the teacher, and Aka Audrey - finally talked.
fathers who now talk to each other normally and joke around are the best things that have happened in this series.
- Cute. I am the list!"
And these two shadows of Julien - does she even need them? I think she would have been much better off without them.
I like Aki, Audrey and the teacher with Max. The latter, of course, look far from like a teacher-student, which makes it very easy to forget that Max is 16, as it were)
And in general if you think about it a bunch of adults are chasing the secrets of children are revealed…Dan that's understandable. It's not weird, it's creepy.
1. The minimum of a gossip girl teacher on the screen. However, with her incoherent monologue and kringe facial expressions during the party, I still shuddered significantly.
2. A good reference to the "old" characters in the form of Georgina's son. He is such a small male version, also with compromising material, but already with modern methods: a culture of cancellation, etc.
Some misunderstandings with the character of Obi. He has been following his sisters stupidly for several series and sadly whines "Let's live together", while not expressing his own opinion particularly. The character has no background except for the title of "Prince" and the desire to defend someone's rights there in spite of rich parents.
Well, in general, the company of friends of chet I see does not really communicate with each other: one in a drug trip - everyone shits, the other two can not figure out their open relationships - everyone shits, the third publicly shits - everyone shits again. The most united in this series are two evil women-podsiraly.
The ending of the series pulls on the end of the season, as already mentioned above. They brought a straight line, although it is obvious that everything will get fucked up again in the next series.
I really don't understand, do the scriptwriters think that someone will perceive Luna and Monet as "cool beeches" like Regina George? they had gone overboard before, but considering bullying as some kind of compromise on the VICTIM of bullying is a whole new level)
The actress, who is Audrey, has an interesting appearance, but some kind of acting out... The Disney one. about the character's reaction to the fact that the man from the party is gay (and dared not tell the first person he met!!), I'm generally silent, is there really homophobia there, or what, with all the "sent justice" messages of the series?
On the other hand, if this is a deliberate attempt to show that there is often a lot of intolerance hidden in "progressive" guys, then I can probably praise them.
It's also interesting about Max, according to the teacher, he's also at the end of the series... Have you sobered up?
and it seems clear that the ten-year-old blackmailer was introduced for the sake of references to his mother (yelling from photos of Georgina on the wall, by the way), but... A ten-year-old hacker is a master of multi-pass?? I don't want to fall into a mess like that...
In general, it's interesting, even knowing the old gossip girl, that this is clearly not a happy ending, because as we know, something can happen again. Considering the fact that there are still 6 episodes ahead, I don't even know what else to slap. Of course, the war of the sisters is something, but for me it's more interesting to watch the relationship between Aki, Audrey and Max. I wouldn't be surprised if there are three more in the end.
But it's especially funny that Zee didn't even give a reason! She just went to school and started dating a guy, she doesn't run any blog, nothing at all. Why did these two purses see her as a threat to Julien's popularity)
I still don't see any reason for the sisters' quarrels, but the scriptwriters haven't shown anything else for four episodes already. And the other characters hardly reveal themselves or develop. It's really a pity, I was hoping for a decent story(
I think the main problem with the series is that it tries to be modern, but at the expense of completely different things. They talk about patriarchy, they introduced LGBT characters, and at the same time they devote 90% of their screen time to damn social wars. It's just that none of the modern teenagers are doing this anymore, it's all left in 2009. The only adequate character against this background is Max, who blocked Gossip girl after 2 seconds and does not participate in this drama at all.
And yet in this series I didn't like any of the outfits, everything was also kind of outdated. How did Princess Nokia come out of 2002?)
The sisters are funny in their own way, but the conflicts between them, which are so artificially inflated, have already become boring in just four episodes. The vibes of rivalry a la Serena and Blair are completely absent from them. Which Zoey is JC's competitor? Someone is interested in her in the media precisely because she is JC's sister and Obie's new girlfriend.
Speaking of Zoya. For some reason, I like her less than Julien. Julien seems to be more honest with herself first of all and knows that she is capable of doing a lot for her goals. Zoya seems to consider herself good and real :) But she quickly turns to the methods adopted in the world she finds herself in, easily succumbs to provocations, and so on. And at the same time, he justifies himself by "simply responding to attacks." So far, I'm more impressed with Julien than the two of them.
The storyline with Audrey, Aki and Max is not about anything yet, it even looks kind of caricatured.
Well, the teachers, to be honest, are just pathetic. They behave as childishly as possible, it is not surprising that the students do not respect them. The blonde (what's her name, Kate Keller?) in general, she behaves like an obsessive, she should visit a psychologist, and also stop frowning, finally, about and for no reason. She also seems to be one of the central characters in the story, but we don't know anything about her, and the whole "tragedy" of her story arc so far boils down to the fact that her wardrobe was ridiculed by J.C.'s girlfriends.
In general, this is all some kind of nonsense, I wonder why I'm waiting for the next episode again...
I find her more and more unpleasant with each episode, but Julien is more sympathetic because she knows how to admit mistakes and tries to change.
Just WHAT?
But how I screamed from her photos with Putin and Ed Sheeran
But most of all, I liked the picture of Blair on the wall. Who's a fan of her, Georgina or Milo? Hahaha
In general, I also grow an unpopular opinion, but in general it does not go down.
And this is despite my passionate love for the original. Gossip Girl is the main series of my life, I'm not afraid to say it (from 13 to 18-19 for sure) and I've watched it many times.
Still, I don't think this restart is terrible. It's basically the same as most teen TV shows in this era.
Actors who don't look like 15 teenagers are full of trash with drugs, sex, alcohol, parties (although it's the same in the original), but also shows a more open variety of issues of sexuality (but I'm always in favor of that)
AND THE TEACHERS
Batty top, generally handsome, the only ones who don't want to punch themselves in the face with the palm
of their hand are just fierce grunts (I still didn't stop hoping for adequacy and at least a little motivation and plot)
The quarrel and dirty tricks between the sisters look ridiculous, considering that Zoya is not interesting to anyone, it's as if Blair was sorting out a relationship with Jenny Humphrey, in the original she immediately crushed her, so it was not interesting to look at that confrontation. It's the same here - Zoya is not an equal opponent for Julien, especially since she is also her sister. I'm already fed up with this topic.
The only plus of the series is Milo Sparks and the portrait of Blair.
Well, the fathers, yes. Like a breath of fresh air.
I'm looking at the background more and more often. I'll probably finish the season if I don't quit sooner.
Julien also did everything so "sweetly" to herself at the end of the party: first she happily shows a video with Zoya, and then, without even apologizing, closes everything on herself again, saying, "I'm Bully, and now you have proof, and I won't do it anymore." Oh, how convenient. I changed my shoes on the spot, and everyone was like, oh, okay. Of course, you can kiss an unknown sister, not a millionaire influencer...
Oh, well, it's a joy that they didn't show the gossipy teacher much.
And I still like that, despite the fact that Gossip Girl is focused on the sisters, the directors show Max's feelings. Here it is a disclosure a la Chuck Bass.
Well, the teachers and sisters are kringe.
But of course we won't stop watching...
It's already episode 4, and still not a single character is attracted, while everyone is some kind of ordinary, dull.
Why did these underachievers get their hands on the sisters?
The most disgusting dialogue between Zoey and Julien. The latter just wanted to congratulate her sister, and Zoey began to push and even "bully" from the very first seconds of the conversation. Well, I understand that she feels sad about her mother's death, but I'm not sure that this is a good enough reason to talk so disgustingly to a man who is literally glowing with sincerity at the moment. Okay, the gossip girl question is fair. But is it necessary to push like that? I don't think so.
After watching the episode, I'm ready to add +1 for the interaction of Jules and Zoey's fathers, and the reconciliation of the girls (although, of course, it looks as cinematic as possible). Their conflict was literally blown out of a molehill, and a huge one at that. They've made everything absolute, and Jules' friends are only too happy to help. Yes, we need some drama, some action, but against the background of rather gray characters, for me it's a lot.
I keep watching just to celebrate, and then, apparently, to break into the revision of the original Gossip Girl 🤡
