Best Thanksgiving Moments: Remembering Gossip Girl

I'm not gonna lie - Gossip Girl was one of the best TV series I've ever watched. I remember the first time I watched it, it wasn't exactly the first episode, I watched it accidentally when I turned on my TV and suddenly I heard One Republic's Apologize played. That's when Dan and Serena walked together outside a building and her mom, Lily, watched her from above. It was sad and sweet at the same time and I simply fell in love with GG. The narration reminded me of Sex & The City, and all of the fashion stuff in every GG episodes were no joke!
So let's take a moment to remember the thanksgiving episodes from Gossip Girl. I give you a hint: disaster. Does it ring a bell? Yes, every thanksgiving episodes of GG ended with disasters. Revealed dirty secrets, disappointments, sadness, all at once. Here's the two-most tragic thanksgiving episodes of Gossip Girl, according to me:

Blair Waldorf Must Pie (Season 1)

This was the first thanksgiving episode. I remember I expected something happy and full of joy moments, but when the episode started with drunk Serena and Nate, making love in a bar and Blair was watching them, it was unbelievable. I realized that this episode was gonna be epic. And yep, it ended with messed up facts that Lily had an affair with Rufus, it's complicated because their children love each other. Also the fact that Blair's dad wasn't coming to the thanksgiving and Blair was very upset about that, literally broke my heart.
Their style, of course Blair and Serena look like high-class high school students. Beauty and maturity were intensely pushed into their styles. Dan still looks like a Humphrey - living in Brooklyn with lumpy sweaters. Chuck with his colorful clothes (remember that famous basketball outfit of Chuck Bass?) and Nate, he's the son of one of the richest men in Upper East Side.

 

It's Really Complicated (Season 6)

From the first season I jumped to the sixth. Because I smelled that something epic would happen in this last thanksgiving episode. There was never a good thanksgiving moment in GG, and I was right. Broken-hearted Serena, Dan got punched by Nate for publishing his exposé about Serena, and Chair (Chuck and Blair) created an ally to destroy Bart Bass. Lily also got realized by Blair and apologized to Chuck for not believing him earlier. The missing part in this episode was Blair that didn't think about his dad. That's kinda sad but maybe at some point, we all need to grow up and move on to another level of our mind (but I didn't see Blair's dad on Serena & Dan's wedding so I don't quite understand why he didn't make any appearance in this last season).
From high school classy students to socialite, that describes them best. Blair and Serena have a really high class taste, of course, maybe because Blair is now the owner of Waldorf Design and Serena replaced Lily's position as the high class Van Der Woodsen. Chuck and Nate turned into the stylish businessmen and Dan turned from the ugly duckling into a famous writer - that quite influenced his style, mostly hair style.
