Monocular Used In Bourne Ultimatum

Gossip Girl: a fourth season in free fall


Josh Schwartz series again after the long Christmas break, visibly subdued, seemingly devoid of interesting ideas that they can recover from here at the end of the year. The rumors that continue for another two years, helping to alert the fans, less and less involved with the plot and characters.

The CW undoubtedly going through a particular year, characterized by the excellent success collected from the two main novelties in the 2010-2011 season, and Hellcats Nikita, the triumph of plays of The Vampire Diaries and large public following series and consolidated as Smallville and Supernatural . All this has contributed to relegate the teendrama in a corner, which for years have been the chief balance of the network, causing a sharp drop of plays among fans of One Tree Hill , now almost at the terminus of 90210 and Gossip Girl , and in case of Unexpected Life, even the cancellation. And while it deserved, with the benefit of the doubt, a third season, the series starring the Blake Lively and Leighton Meester , would be better instead to close the adventures of the boys of the Upper East Side last year, to avoid the repetition of hitting the rock and nonsense where you went to clash recently.
Weak in the plays (almost two million hard and often drops below 1, 5) and in the plot, the fourth season of Gossip Girl, despite good initial premises vanished from the sixth episode, he began a free fall vortex and surface rough storyline, no solid foundation to lean on and the most often resolved in a perfunctory and unconvincing.
After a couple episodes of transient War at the Roses and Juliet Does not Live Here Anymore , focusing mainly on Serena and her emotional whims, and the constant push and pull between Chuck and Blair, the ninth episode, The Witches of Bushwick, could mark a good turning point for the series, if only he had taken a different direction from that chosen by the authors.
The long-awaited reconciliation between the couple formed by Meester and Ed Westwick , which fans dreamed for months, has instead proved to be an ephemeral flash in the pan, and became extinct in Within a couple of shots just after months of hot sex and phrases called a half, who had hoped for a happy ending, but burned in the bud. The love story in which everyone was pointing and then put aside quickly and without any explanation, to make room for other plots and other unlikely plot twists. Not even the return of lightning
Taylor Momsen in the role of Little J was able to give back to the series spirit, and his unlikely friendship with Juliet Sharp ( Katie Cassidy) and Vanessa against Serena, has only helped to add more confusion to an already confusing storyline and lacks credibility. In Gaslit fact, Serena is delivered in rehab, following a fake picture that is portrayed on the verge of taking drugs, the work of Juliet, which makes them unleash family and friends, with paparazzi and reporters rushing out of the clinic where she was confined, was not even a celebrity from the first page.
The turn of events incoherent and inconsistent, lays the foundation for the eleventh episode, The Townie , the last of 2010, the "resolution" if it can be defined, which will finally shed light on Juliet's character and his brother Ben (David Call ) and Serena's past, yet once again to strongly affect its present. A key
bet, unexpectedly, Lily Van Der Woodsen, the only responsible for the arrest of Ben, who is accused of taking advantage of Serena years earlier, when he was one of his teachers at school. The platonic relationship established between the two, Lily pushed it to forge the signature of Serena on the complaint against Ben, to protect her daughter, still a minor, and to curb a dangerous relationship in the bud. Find
then finally an explanation for the grueling Juliet's desire for revenge against Serena antagonist, completely unaware of everything, and now determined to make Ben exonerate unjustly accused and imprisoned for years never committed a crime.
War broke out inside the house Van Der Woodsen, is worsened when he jumps out, thanks to Rufus, Lily of the decision, taken at the back of Chuck Bass industries to sell without asking his consent, sparking the wrath of the boy and a bitter quarrel between all family members.
After more than a month of stop, the series is back on the air with the second half of the season, but the episode The Kids Are Not All Right not bode well: the choices of the authors are still not convincing at all, and the introduction of new characters unconvincing, certainly does not help.
Farewell to Juliet and Jenny (who there are rumors could still get from time to time), allows for two new villains, entrepreneur Russell Thorpe and her daughter Raina (Michael Boatman and Tika Sumpter), who wish to get their hands on wealth Bass to destroy Chuck and the legacy of his late father.
Ready to return to New York City also Billy Baldwin (Parenthood), the father of Serena, who will help lift the mood and self-esteem after Lily's ex-wife through hard times recently. Call David is confirmed in the cast in the role of Ben, finally out of prison and about to be reconciled with Serena, ready to give them a second chance at love story, even if, as a producer Stephanie Savage says "...
the biggest obstacle to their possible attendance is to overcome the suspicious eyes of the family of Serena."
Once again, therefore, the possibility that the Van Der Woodsen and Dan can get back together, is put aside, perhaps forever, even with the constant "repechage" of pairs that we have seen in recent years, nothing Gossip Girl seems impossible, as demonstrated by the latest senseless decision of the writers, to give birth to the love between the only two characters left, and Dan Blair
Their relationship with Serena is all that one hates the other, there will be very dynamic loads " assured the Savage, " At the same time, there are two characters who have much in common, and might want and no more hate. There
are very inspired comedies of the '30s and '40s, as scandal in Philadelphia with Cary Grant, Katherine Hepburn and Jimmy Stewart, where there are two people who basically hate but they are intelligent to the point of fun for Prick of others. " And on the big doubts about this new unlikely liaison , said: " will be a very fun story to write. I expect a large participation of the faithful of the show. Gossip Girl has the advantage of having a huge following of fans and we are ready to correct the roll if their relationship does not please the public " .
To sum up, in the year, the shot should be corrected on several fronts, however, if perhaps the time available is not enough: the feeling is that you're scraping the bottom of the barrel to pull out at all costs a plot twist that is able to make a change to the series, which probably would have been better when he was close to the top, to avoid reaching this point of no return.
