Gossip Girl S1E1: Pilot

The year is 2007, and your iPod shuffle starts to play "Young Folks" by Peter Bjorn and John. The crisp fall air greets your cheeks as you walk up to the MET steps. Sit, chat, and reflect on all things GOSSIP GIRL. In this premiere episode, we’re diving into S1E1, the Pilot, the one that started it all. From Serena’s shocking return to Blair’s scheming smile, we’ll revisit the fashion, the drama, and the cultural spark that made Gossip Girl an instant obsession.

XOXO, Alexandra

 

Opening Monologue:

Hey, Upper East Siders, Gossip Girl here, and I have the biggest news ever. One of my many sources, Melanie91, sends us this: "Spotted at Grand Central, bags in hand: Serena van der Woodsen." Was it only a year ago our It Girl mysteriously disappeared for "boarding school" and just as suddenly she's back. Don't believe me? See for yourselves. Lucky for us, Melanie91 sent proof. Thanks for the photo, Mel.
