Gossip Girl Makes Us Seek Comfort in Pints of Häagen-Dazs

It's time for our weekly comment roundup, in which we sift through the hundreds of comments left on Tuesday's recap of Gossip Girl and single out the best ones. On this special, post-hiatus week, a very special commenter emeritus is doing the judging: Comfortably Smug. Behold his labors after the jump.


They say absence is to love what the wind is to fire. When it’s a small fire, the wind kills it, but when it’s a real fire, it intensifies it. Fans of Gossip Girl are questioning their love for the show more than ever after its return from a brief hiatus. This week, we were frustrated by too many story lines (particularly the Chuck/Elle line) and not enough of the juicy bits that got us enamored so long ago. We hope for a return to salacious frivolity next week, but in the meantime, let’s take a look back at the best of your comments.
