Those are exactly the things I'm hoping for too. If there's better quality control, lots of real NYC locations, and outrageous costuming, it'll go a long way towards working.

 

 

Yep.

 

Funnily enough, just a couple weeks ago I was thinking how more modern technology would affect/influence the show if it were done today. Guess we're about to find out!

 

 

I don't see why some of them wouldn't.

First full trailer is OUT!!!

 

And it looks like we will have some characters that go both ways...something the original only touched on briefly.

 

Great song choice. And I like the hook (who is the new GG and who po off someone to make GG resurface at all)...

It's funny you should say that @victoria foxton. Other than that time Chuck kissed a guy...which Chuck did go both ways in the books from what I've heard, but this was more plot device...and Eric, they never touched on homosexuality really.

 

And honorable mention to Tika Sumpter's season 4 arc. I was so disappointed they did not do more with her when the promo set her up to be dangerous.

 

And hehe I see comments have mentioned ELITE which was inspired by original GG, too. Should be interesting to see how this goes down. 

 

I liked GG more than most it seems (Season 1 and 2 being the best, I personally liked Season 3 and 4, and the reveal at the end was problematic but I liked who everyone ended up with. Almost), so I'm super excited to see where this goes and how or if they will connected it to the original series since this is a continuation as well as a reboot.

The CW Will Air HBO Max's Gossip Girl Reboot Premiere (adweek.com)

 

And the reviews are IN!!!

 

I would say avoid the VULTURE review for sure unless you want to be spoiled on who the new GG allegedly is.

 

So far being torn apart I heard, but I haven't read any yet (and I read EW reviews and AV Club reviews first anyway).

 

Still watching.

    • I really have no problem with Kai as a character or with the actor. The problem is putting together two very nice people -- Kai and Trina. Neither of them has a bad side, neither of them has a devil on the shoulder, neither of them is impulsive. I think that's a problem in a soap relationship. Yeah, I agree. All this freaking out might make sense if Lulu wanted to do a tabloid expose on BLQ's LOVE CHILD. We have no indication that's the case.  
    • So Sonni would have somebody to talk to who she wasn't conspiring with (Will or Alan)? Alex kept telling Sonni how important her friends were...when she had virtually no friends. Instead they created loyal servants like Jane and Vera to give Alex people to play off of. They did that with Iris on AW, but Vivien was mostly there for comic relief Alex keeping Marah's paternity a secret was absurd. But I still love the scene between Alex and Alan where he convinces her by reminding her how they protected each other from their abusive father. Chris and Bev ATE that scene. Unfortunately, that took place only a few months before he exited the show...always thought they could have built on that, explored more how being Brandon's children screwed them both up. Maybe even used it as an explanation for the way their relationship could constantly swing from hatred to love. Instead of it being merely dictated by the plot.
    • The first one is Cass Winthrop dressed as Krystle Lake on Another World (not from his original creation of the character to hide from the loan shark Tony the Tuna, but at a romance convention trying to find out what had happened to Felicia who was missing). The second one is also Another World, Jake McKinnon as Doris although I don't recall what his purpose was.
    • I know there was one brief scene in the summer of 1989 where Lillian did mention Calla.. but in relation to her past relationship to Ross and it was to Roger while he was a patient at Cedars.  I think he was trying to pump her for information on Ross.. and for some reason, Calla's name came up.   I could see perhaps Beth mentioning that her mother Lillian was visiting Calla.. but not exactly giving any sort of details as to the going ons in Calla's life off screen.

    • They're neither great nor terrible AFAIK, but it is more a question of the streaming numbers in this day and age vs. actual TV airings. The Chibnall era reminded me much more of the crisis years, but I do think it's a very real possibility now as well due to the streaming bubble collapse affecting the show and its prospects.
    • ANYTHING to get her off the screen..she COULD have been interesting if she and Van had a few face offs..(there was a mild one of her going back to work...but I wanted something meatier "Bitch, I am Vanessa Chamberlain and I don't take advice from someone who followed the..career path you did!" I did like Alex's outright disdain for her.
    • Thanks @Vee for the commentary.    I haven’t even watched this season yet after  I couldn’t get past the couple episodes last season…like it was too Disneyified for my taste, although I did think it was a least better than the Chibnall era (but so is a lot of things). I’ll probably go back and binge it now. Hoping this season ends on a high note. I did read the ratings are terrible. As it stands I’m beginning to feel like what long time DW fans felt with S26 in 1989.
    • Yes, they are all on contract. Next.
