I'm listening to the song...... to explain the title, lol

Quote:

I dont understand loving NBs Blair. You loved her constantly thinking she was not enough and striving to be perfect.

THANK YOU!

NB was all about B feeling like she wasn't enough, and striving to be different than herself. How was that good for her at all? That's not a healthy relationship, and Chuck even pointed it out last year. Nate always wanted Blair to be different than herself, and that was stupid. If he didn't love her for who she was, then he didn't really love her.

Well to each their own then

because I will never like that Blair. I hated how much she strived to be better and perfect. But thankfully shes with someone that loves her for who she is and not a fake waspy version she was with Nate

I think what kary meant is that she misses Blair having a point of view. I miss S2 (especially early S2) blair the most because she had distinctive perspective. I'm enjoying the cb relationship but I do miss her having a storyline and a pov thats not purely comedic but thats the least of the writers problems this season.

She's not really comedic at this point, though. With the new CB storyline, I'm feeling for her already..

Don't get me wrong... i like CB... CB is good for Blair... but i agree with the person who said CB is more about Chuck, first it was about his commitment issues, now it's mainly Blair being there for him.. and NB was more about Blair's issues... and i like Blair having issues, not cuz i want her to suffer, but because vulnerable Blair is what i fell in love with

cutie_pie04 · 03-24-2010, 01:20 PM

But what does Blair not having a current SL have to do with CB as a couple.

Also I have yet to see her be comdedic with Chuck. Only with her NYU SL.

Trustno1 · 03-24-2010, 01:20 PM

Leighton's songs are obsessing!!

fox24 · 03-24-2010, 01:21 PM

I do like Blair since 3.13 I can even understand her feelings in trying to trust "mommy dearest" cause she wants C to be happy. However, I hope they work in having a serious storyline for her because in the first two seasons she had some really good emotional storylines

So you love the NYU storyline then?

I get what you're saying but I think that Blair's still showing that vulnerability. She's also showing a great deal of strength of character and I LOVE that about her current depiction.

really? her sexy talk when she found the necklace seemed comedic to me, even in the sneak we got, her extra giddyness makes it comedic to me... maybe it's how Leighton wants to play Blair though

idk

Thanks for the new thread.

I know what you mean about actors needing and wanting to be challenged Shu. I can see why Penn was reluctant to take the part since Dan is more of a heroic type character. As such there isn't as much room to push the envelop (in terms of exploring a character's dark side) as with an anti-heroic character like Chuck. It actually sounds like Chuck EVOLVED into being an anti-hero. He was initially a flat out villian. Anyway, point is: I can see why Penn might be disatisfied by the acting challenge of a role like Dan.

ewww no! why would my comments make you think that

this goes back to my S1 Blair vs S3 Blair...

S1 Blair IMO was a bitch with motive... the NYU toast epi, i was team Blair as default, but i didn't agree with how she was acting... it's like she was being bitchy, just cuz... i think Blair was used this way in this epi just to gain vanessa some sympathy

I totally understand that and I also think he gets the role like no-one else can. He gives dan an edge that he wouldn't have on paper. Otherwise he'd be way more geeky and like Seth or Chuck Bartoski. Penn gives dan that little sexy edge. The ocassional darkness that seeps out at the most unexpected moments. But, he's also got impecable comedic timing. That's why I'm more of a penn fan than a dan one even though I love the boy. If I were to choose dan vs serena, Serena is my girl but I love dan cause of who plays him.

sorry if i make no sense.

eta: I get frustrated with Dan being heroic cause right now they aren't letting him be that. They've reduced him to a side comedic player whose lost a lot of what makes him him so they can do this current pairing. I think thats my biggest beef. DV diminished Dan to a side player and he's too important of a character for that to happen. Even when Olivia was on it felt more like the Olivia storyline guest starring Dan humphrey.
