Brittany Snow as 'Lily Rhodes'
I am sure interested in what Lily's life was, it somewhat mirrors Serena's life now. How was Brittany Snow as Lily Rhodes? Did te think she looked like Lily. The transitions between Lily Rhodes and Lily furgone, van der Woodsen were well done, as I found myself comparing both individuals and they were somewhat the same. I know they are the same person, but think about it, has Lily furgone, van der Woodsen ever really grown up? There is still a hint of Lily Rhodes in there, mixed with a bit of her mother's (Cece) cliche moments.
Like:
Telling Serena 'Mother Knows Best' ...and
Getting Serena arrested for punishment, most moms take away allowances, sentence their children to one mese without Televisione o a cellphone, but Lily gets Serena arrested...
Serena getting arrested was done very sloppy in 'The Wrath of Con'. I believed the mostra had met it's final moments and decided to just pull the final Wild Card.
Surprisingly, Valley Girls, picked up much better than I'd anticipated.
Still for some strange reason I thought I would be seeing Georgina in this installment, since they just dropped the papavero and Gabriel theme like a hot potato! What happened to Georgina's words to Blair?
Blair - "I don't think Gesù would approve of that."
Georgina - "Well, te can tell Gesù that the cagna is back!"
Where is the cagna now!
Anyway I guess that would be picked up in 'The Goodbye Gossip Girl'.
Even though they needed to use this entire episode to promote Valley Girls, it's not right leaving us hanging in the balance there. I am sure papavero would not hang around until prom was finished.
Another main theme in the Valley Girls theme was Prom.
Prom signified the end of senior anno and it seemed to have brought an end to many things as well;
Blair and Nate
Lily and Rufus
...and a beginning for Serena and Dan
Lily and her Mom
It also looked like Nelly, Hazel, Penelope and Isabel were up to no good ...again. It only took Chuck to clean up the mess they created for Blair.
There latest scheme; giving Blair false hope of becoming Prom Queen at the same time crowning Nelly. Those girls really need to grow up! According to Nelly;
"If we do this stuff in college, people would think we're Pathological!"
-> What about Now ladies! What would people think of te when te do those things Now!
Blair got the crown non-the-less, with Chuck's help, da helping Blair be happy on the day. Chuck is always più sappy around Blair, but don't te think it's funny that even though Chuck gave Blair everything she wanted, she still ended up splitting with Nate!
This episode had so many fond moments, that I had to capture it in dialogue!
Blair - "Serena's been in jail for over four hours, she's already served più time than Nicole Richie and Lindsay Lohan combined"
Chuck - "She's a socialite mistakenly accused of stealing a bracelet, I doubt they're working her over with the phone book"
Nate - "I just can't believe she would actually have her own daughter arrested I mean who does that!"
Chuck - "Someone who's never been arrested!"
-> With reference to Lily of course, does this mean that Chuck doesn't really know the real Lily, because she has been arrested before!
Vanessa - "So was Lily blown away?"
Dan - "Well not really"
Jenny - "Yeah he never actually ah..."
Dan - "...proposed! Minor detail, made a proposal"
Jenny - "Kind of the key ingredient to the recipe"

Brittany Snow does look like Kelly Rutherford, except the difference in eye color. Brittany's eyes are blue and Kelly's are grayish-brownish. Although I read in an articolo that your eye-color does change as te grow older...
This was my preferito episode of Gossip Girl this season. Some may disagree with me, but the recitazione was solid, the flashback scenes were well placed and everything just fell into place. I am actually interested in the Valley Girls prequel!
Gossip Girl may not have the same spunk like Season one, and this episode might not make up for some past episodes they just passed us of with, but da the length of this review I'm sure te must already know that I liked this one. Definitely a different take on the complessivamente, generale series.
I just hope that they would conclude the Georgina mode quickly and I hope it would end better than her last encounter in Season one.
So, are te excited for The Goodbye Gossip Girl?
...and how much did te enjoy that performance from No Doubt!
