Reason to Watch (or Rewatch) Gossip Girl

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at BC chapter.

 

When it comes to Gossip Girl, I tend to assuming that most college-aged girls, especially at BC, have been as obsessed with it as my friends and I. If you haven’t been exposed to it, you’re missing out. And when you love Gossip Girl, there is nothing like re-watching episodes, reminiscing on love triangles, and obsessing over Serena’s wardrobe. That being said, here is a list of reasons you should watch Gossip Girl, or in most cases, re-watch Gossip Girl. And since it’s on Netflix, it’s easy!

1.     Serena Van Der Woodsen, a.k.a. Blake Lively, is the ultimate “Woman Crush Wednesday”, and every girl wishes they looked this good, especially at parties.

2.     Going along with that, Nate Archibald, a.k.a. Chace Crawford is the ultimate “Man Crush Monday.” Just look at that smile.

3.     If you’re re-watching or have seen spoiler alerts, you can look for hints and clues now that you know who Gossip Girl is, and even times when it really doesn’t make sense.

4.     Even if you hate to admit it, everyone knows they’ve learned some of their teenage sass from Blair… and don’t hate it either.

5.     GG is filled with luxurious vacations, expensive clothes, and outrageous parties, so what is more fun that living vicariously through your favorite cast? The show is about the richest of the rich and that makes it very entertaining.

6.     B & S might have their problems, but in the end they have the best best friendship ever, and watching their ups and downs as they grow makes you feel like part of it.

7.     Chuck and Blair. Best love story ever. Enough said. (I couldn’t pick one gif, so here they are throughout the years.)
