I Gave Up ππ I Just can't get pass season 4 episode 8
First watch ever and in the beginning I was entranced. Everyone was gorgeous, even Chuck compensated for that safety scissor haircut with wit and style. I was rooting for Serena and was appropriately apprehensive of Blair. It broke my heart to see the Ice Princess I knew and loved as a raging evil bitch (Georgina) but still I watched.
But the end of Juliet Doesn't Live Here Anymore BROKE ME. I just can't anymore, Serena is utterly insufferable, and I literally mean I could not suffer through watching her anymore.
Knowing that Dan was Gossip Girl and trying to look out for clues, knowing that Serena still married him despite it, and knowing that Lily actually does end up with her slimy, no good, criminal prick of an ex husband (who gave her fake cancer and tried to break up her marriage) instead of Serena getting over her Daddy fantasy and growing the hell up without his toxicity... It was a miracle a made it as far as I did.
I tried to stay strong for Blair and Chuck. For Dorota. For the FASHION. But between Jenny getting away with all her bitchiness in season 3 just because she slept with Chuck (so she suddenly gets this heartfelt goodbye as if she didn't try to break up a her dad's marriage, as well as Blair/Chuck and Serena/Nate), and Serena boy hopping from her professor back between Nate and Dan within MINUTES, I'm just to broken to go on.
I've seen clips, I know it just gets more messy. And I'll always have fanfiction but I am gracefully bowing out.
