Gossip Girl Season 4 Episode 22 Season Finale

Spoilers alert!

Noteworthy scenes:







I couldn't have asked for a better way to patch the huge gap between Chuck and Blair than this. The spontaneous dance scene, accompanied by the ever-so-apt Rolling in the Deep by Adele. They chose the right song, with the perfect lyrics to describe every bit of their relationship.

Stolen moments of happiness and love-making, even though Chuck let Blair go in the end, but honestly, there's never been a more compatible couple on-screen such as them, in my opinion.

Being the hard-core Chuck and Blair (hereby, known as Chair) fan that I am, I can't help but look back at the end of season 1, during Bart Bass and Lily's wedding when Chuck was giving his best man speech.

Chuck said, "In the face of true love, you don't just give up, even if the object of your affection is begging you to."

WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT HUH, CHUCK!

Then, rationality sinks in and tells me that if they got back together so quickly, there wouldn't be anything interesting to tell in the following season.

Gossip Girl fared extremely well on the ratings chart when season 1 and 2 premiered. Season 3 was so-so, presuming that they have derailed from the novel's storyline and wrote their own. Season 4 was just... a trainwreck, especially the scriptwriting. I hope Cecily von Ziegesar could at least contribute a part of her wit to the scriptwriting in following seasons?

I'm highly anticipating season 5 of Gossip Girl to know how more drama between them will unfold. After all, everyone's pretty sure that Blair is pregnant with Chuck's baby... One can hope, yes?
