This party, though, was the setting of what I am on record as saying is the most erotic scene in Gossip Girl history. I'm referring to Chuck and Blair's first interaction at her party. The way he brushed her neck. And kissed her cheek. And when he pleaded with her, "Have sex with me." I don't know about you all, but Tim here needed a fan. Or a cold shower. Those two just keep getting better in terms of their chemistry and relationship. You almost don't want them to become a couple because they're so good at sparring.

# "If Beta Bass is anything like the original, I have no doubt that sooner or later he'll disappoint me." How true was Blair when she said those words. Then again, Beta Blair would surely sooner or later back stab Chuck! As it was the case for the Betas, Chuck and Blair need to end up together. Until this happens, I'm willing to be entertained each week by their dancing around one another.

not that any girl could replace her in Chuck's heart.
Blair and Chuck's plan also backfires, but hilariously! See, Blair found Chuck a faux-Blair, and Chuck found Blair a faux-Chuck. How close are they?

I’m not sure who wins in this situation, but Blair and Chuck’s dates are caught making out with one another in a dark corner. Blair can’t believe that their clones can work it out, but they can’t. Chuck says he doesn’t want to change the way things are between them, and they even dance at the end of the night. Those two are so meant to be!
'Gossip Girl' recap: Dan and Serena, work out your issues | Quote:
Chuck and Blair stubbornly refused to ask one another to the Ball, so they decided to find one another the perfect date. They wagered on their skills of knowing what they other wants--Chuck betting his limo and Blair betting my beloved Dorota (who's skills as a housekeeper reach into the realm of Facebook). Unsurprisingly, the two folks they picked out for each other ended up hooking up, and they were left to have a sweet slow dance together. Sparkle tux!

Blair couldn’t worry too much about her mother’s impending nuptials when she was so distraught over how Chuck was behaving. This behavior was way harmful. She begged him to let her help. Blair wanted to be a part of Chuck’s life no matter what. But he didn’t understand. Why did Blair care so much? They weren’t boyfriend and girlfriend. And then Blair finally said those three words we’ve been patiently (or impatiently) waiting for: I love you. Blair loves Chuck! Love the sound of that. Too bad, Chuck didn’t care at all. Blair couldn’t stop him from destruction. Massive bummer.

At the end of Cyrus and Eleanor’s wedding ceremony, Blair was interrupted. There was a surprise visitor in her bedroom. And who could it be? Why, it was a sobbing Chuck (seriously so devastating to see him like that). Blair comforted him and it was the sweetest thing ever. Looked like it was just what he needed. Unfortunately, when Blair woke up Chuck was gone and had left a note. The note said Blair deserved better than him. She shouldn’t look for him either. WHAT? Right when we thought maybe there’d be a Waldass reunion that happened. Ugh! Talk about disappointing!

TV's Most (and Least) Stylish Characters of '08
Quote:
MOST STYLISH: 1. CHUCK BASS and BLAIR WALDORF, Gossip Girl (The CW)
Their love-hate romance has become nearly epic over the past year — and their fashions are just as grand. The dapper look from Ed Westwick's Chuck — all bow ties, smoking jackets, and pocket hankies — is reminiscent of a bygone era in New York City, when men dressed with class...and panache. And Blair (Leighton Meester), well, she just always looks killer — be it in a lacy and too-too ruffled collar or barely-there cocktail dress — and that suits her catty attitude perfectly.

6. Best Backfire: Gossip Girl's Chuck and Blair make a bet to pick the perfect date for each other for the Snowflake Ball. If Chuck wins, he gets Derota (Blair's maid) for a month, and if Blair wins, she gets Chuck's limo for a month. Of course, neither wins. Instead, their doppelganger dates end up sucking face with each other. Watch it here with our Online Video Guide.

. Chuck and Blair are entertaining because they're always at the center of the twisted plots on "Gossip Girl" (whether or not it's of they're own making) and they tend to blurt out what everyone else wishes they could say aloud. Even though Chuck and Blair agreed to not become a couple (and we completely understand), we're secretly rooting for them to at least hook up… again.

#1: Gossip Girl
. Now our hearts break for... Blair and Chuck? It takes a special kind of show to illicit feelings for what are, ostensibly, two awful human beings. And yet Gossip Girl makes us want to friend them on Facebook. You can call Gossip Girl a derivative teen soap, Dynasty, Jr., or even a sign of the coming apocalypse. We'll just call it the best show of the year.

6. Blair Waldorf & Chuck Bass (Leighton Meester, Ed Westwick) -- "Gossip Girl"
I could mostly take or leave "Gossip Girl," but there's one thing (actually two) that has really elevated the show and that's Blair and Chuck. Yes, they're conniving, snobby and opportunistic, but they're not just a cardboard mean girl and guy. They've shown they can also be vulnerable, caring and loyal. But when they're bad, they're very good. Leighton Meester and Ed Westick also have some of the best chemistry on the small screen and their tug-of-war relationship gives "Gossip Girl" some real life.

Sorry, S and Lonely Boy. Of all the Upper East Side entanglements, it's the unholy union of Chuck and Blair that's really got Gossip Girl on her Twittering toes. "They are true equals," says exec producer Stephanie Savage. "They're both master manipulators and snappy dressers." Savage credits the allure of the dysfunctional duo - a teen Taylor and Burton who barter for sexual favors and bicker over using the L-word - to the off-the-charts chemistry between Leighton Meester and Ed Westwick. "They bring so many layers to their performances that [we] want to go further with the writing to see what they can do." So far, they've done a lot (their limo hookup still has our rearview mirror fogged), but according to Savage, we ain't seen nothing yet. "Chuck and Blair's relationship is about to be tested more than ever...it goes to a pretty dark place." Oh, yeah, you know we love it!

2. Chuck and Blair from Gossip Girl
Chuck and Blair are, simply put, perfect for each other. Chuck gets Blair, and Blair gets Chuck. They may fight and scheme and make ridiculous bets involving limos and human beings, but at the end of the day they love each other. They're both so used to protecting themselves first and foremost, but when Chuck's father passed and he needed her, Blair opened up and made herself vulnerable. She told Chuck she loved him. And while Chuck is far to screwed up with grief and alcohol to reciprocate she'll continue to be there for him. And when it's Blair's turn for a crises, you know Chuck will be there for her.

Why we really watch GG
Quote:
Chuck ends up being the most grown up, morally sound and richly complex character on the show. And while countless she-tears were surely shed over the frustrating on again off again stop/startings of the (admittedly involving) Dan and Serena love shenanigans, our money was, and remains, on the scintillatingly über-hot courtship, coupling and pairing of Chuck and Blair. Those episodes of their electric exchanges are priceless.

HOT news?
Quote:
Clearly, everything I write about Gossip Girl every week could easily be about the extreme hotness of Blair (Leighton Meester) and Chuck (Ed Westwick), since they and their twisted relationship are by far the best parts of the show. That scene at Blair's party when Chuck asks her about her (nonexistent) sex life with Lord Marcus? H-O-T!

They're Equals, Stephanie said so
Quote:
His romance with Blair will be the big draw when the show returns, according to executive producer Stephanie Savage. (A photo of Chuck offering up a dripping piece of cherry pie — and the texty tagline “ready4more” — covered the preview screeners sent to the press this month.) By the end of last season, it was difficult not to root for the caustic relationship between him and Blair, whom he earlier discarded and compared to one of his father's Arabian horses: “Rode hard and put away wet.”
How did this happen? Is this Luke and Laura 2.0? So wrong, yet so right?
“He hasn't victimized Blair. That sort of Stockholm syndrome isn't in operation here,” Savage said. “I think of Chuck and Blair as equals. It's much more Glenn Close and John Malkovich in 'Dangerous Liaisons.'”
‘Gossip Girl's' Chuck is the boy you love to hate | Show Tracker | Los Angeles Times | Chuck even got analyzed about his love for Blair!  did anyone else get that?!
Quote:
Nate and Blair finally ended their relationship giving Chuck a chance to pursue his love. But considering their wild nature, an ordinary relationship just won’t do for both of them. Hence, Blair and Chuck began playing mind games on each other leaving their hearts confused about the real status of their relationship. The fact that both of them like the game made things more complex. They found themselves being in the arms of another as a way of proving who’ll win the game that only the two of them could play. Soon after, a cat-and-mouse chase of being the first to say I-love-you took hold of the two. In between the chase, Chuck found himself paralyzed by his feelings for Blair. He knew it---Blair is the only woman he could ever love and give himself to again. The bad boy fell in love with the only woman he might never have.

| From the CW Source's best and worst of this season of GG:
Quote:
What we love about Season Two:
*The sexual tension between Chuck and Blair is off the charts. We don't know how the actors do it, but Ed Westwick and Leighton Meester have managed to dial up the chemistry a notch -- and that's saying something after some of Season One's hot Chair scenes.
*Some of our favorite Chuck/Blair scenes this season? Chuck revealing why he skipped out on Tuscany: "I didn't want you to see." "See what?" "See me." Then there was the clothes-on seduction at Blair's party: "Where does he... put his hands?" And finally, the almost-getting-it-on bedroom scene where Blair refused to say those three little words... and then Chuck refused her. For now, at least.

Chuck and Blair need to keep on being awesome. Gossip Girl, a show that I thought was only okay last year, has quickly become one of my favorite things to watch. I don't give a crap about most of the characters, but the deliciously evil Chuck and Blair keep me coming back every week. Don't ruin this for me.
