I'd like if he owned his negative qualities.

Eleanor?

Lisa2011 · 08-14-2008, 08:39 AM

Um..I hated her most of the season, I think. She was just a bitch to her own daughter, and I hate that. Especially with that photoshoot Besties thingy, I just wanted to slap her. -.- I felt so sorry for Blair, for the first time.
She grew on me later on, though.

cartiergurl01 · 08-14-2008, 11:45 AM

Yeah, I never liked her much. I'm pretty sure she loves Blair in her own way, but just seems like an overly stiff person who's awkward with showing affection to her. Which is unusual to see with a mom.

I think we covered just about every character/relationship there is. Chuck/Serena?

Eleanor puts too much pressure on Blair.

luliat · 08-14-2008, 07:27 PM

Yes, Eleanor definitely puts too much pressure on her daughter and sometimes she certainly does not know how to show her love for her. Cause I have no doubt that Eleanor really loves Blair.
Besides, I couldn't help but feel for her at the end of the Thanksgiving episode, when she tells Blair about the divorce papers. I loved that Eleanor/Blair scene

Lisa2011 · 08-15-2008, 11:08 AM

Actually, Blair/Eleanor totally remind me of Brooke/whatever-her-mothers-name-is on OTH. So much similarities, not even speaking of their looks. ^^ But I guess Eleanor shows more heart and as said before, she seems like she just doesnt know how to show her love for Blair..because with her, I'm actually sure she loves her daughter a lot.

luliat · 08-15-2008, 01:31 PM

ITA. I'm sure Eleanor really loves Blair but she might not know how to show it.
As for the OTH comparison, I wouldn't know, I don't watch it.

**kingjames23** · 08-16-2008, 01:52 AM

I think she does have good intentions for her daughter but sometimes she just doesn't show it.

Lisa2011 · 08-16-2008, 09:41 AM

Yeah, definitely.

Luliat, you better dont even start watching.

Seriously, this show has become so..ugh. I actually hope GG wont have many seasons. Quality is better.

luliat · 08-16-2008, 12:25 PM

Sure, I won't!

Definitely, I'd rather have fewer but great seasons! Although, ideally speaking, I want it to be a long-running but always great show!

**kingjames23** · 08-16-2008, 03:33 PM

LMAO. OTH is questionable.

Lisa2011 · 08-17-2008, 09:06 AM

Okay, yeah, that would be the ideal thing to happen, a lot of GREAT seasons.

Therefore CW only needs to..grow up. Sigh. I hate this network. Although GG is one of the few shows they treat well.

Aaaanyways-

HA, lord knows how much I heart these two. Seriously. They are my favorite UC couple ever. I so wish they'd hook up..but then again not, because what they have right now is freaking amazing. There's just always this undeniable subtle sexual chemistry that makes me wish they'd just kiss already.

cartiergurl01 · 08-17-2008, 11:35 AM

Pretty much agree with that!

Lisa2011 · 08-18-2008, 07:27 AM

Okay.

Anyone else? Other than that..what about the idea of Dan & Blair? I think they'd be pretty intriguing together.

cartiergurl01 · 08-18-2008, 11:08 AM

Idk. I never saw any sparks between them and I can't really see myself shipping Dan with anyone but Serena atm. I would like them forming a friendship, somewhere down the line.
