I love Thanksgiving and Christmas episodes of shows. There is always a crisis and somehow it gets resolved in that hour. And in that time you might just laugh and cry many times. I just hate that in Canada we have to wait for another month and a half before we get to see the Thanksgiving episodes from the States. But we still appreciate it.

Episode eleven of the season is called, Treasure of Serena Madre, and it goes like this: It wouldn’t be Thanksgiving on the Upper East Side if there wasn’t a serving or two of some major drama for the holiday. Blair (Leighton Meester) suspects her mom (guest star Margaret Colin) has been keeping a big secret from her, but it turns out to be something else entirely. Vanessa (Jessica Szohr) is supposed to spend Thanksgiving with her parents, but has a fight with her mom (guest star Gina Torres) and shows up on Dan’s (Penn Badgley) doorstep. Rufus (Matthew Settle) learns that Lily (Kelly Rutherford) has been lying to him about her mother, Cece (guest star Caroline Lagerfelt). Chuck (Ed Westwick) tells Nate (Chace Crawford) that he has some potentially damaging information about one of their friends. Jenny (Taylor Momsen) learns that Eric (Connor Paolo) was behind her very public embarrassment at Cotillion and can’t pass up a chance to get even. Serena (Blake Lively) is put in a very awkward position when her mother invites Trip (guest star Aaron Tveit) and Maureen (guest star Holley Fain) to join them for Thanksgiving dinner..

Can you believe we are already at episode 8 of the season? I think that’s crazy talk! I was caught up with Gossip Girl but now I’m lagging again. I just need to have time to watch all my shows.

Episode 8 is called, They Shoot Humphrey’s, Don’t They?, and it goes like this: Not satisfied with just being Queen of Constance Billard, Jenny (Taylor Momsen) sets her sights on becoming the Queen of all the Upper East Side by landing the hottest escort for Cotillion. Nate (Chace Crawford) and Chuck (Ed Westwick) plot to help Serena (Blake Lively) and Blair (Leighton Meester) repair their damaged friendship. Dan (Penn Badgley) is upset when Olivia (guest star Hilary Duff) contemplates leaving school for a movie project.

Chace Crawford and Blake Lively were seen getting coffee with Blake’s maltipoo, Penny, today in New York. I love how they seem to be best friends with each other. I am sure that they talk alot since it looks like there is some down time on the set.

Chace Crawford was at the premiere of Stepfather on Monday night. He was probably there to support his friend, Penn Badgley, since he’s in the movie. I want to go see it so bad. Nothing like psycho stepfathers on the loose. You always see stepmothers like that but never stepfathers. It’s about time!

More pictures from the Gossip Girl photo shoot here were released today. I have to say that I absolutely love these pictures. Especially the Chace Crawford ones. It’s too bad everyone is here except Blake Lively.

I am a bit late posting these pictures of Chace Crawford the other day on the Gossip Girl set. I know there are some people that would love to see them. Me included. I can’t wait to see Chace in Footloose. Because thinking about him dancing is killing me. And I know his acting will be amazing.

I swear I miss one episode and everything seems to happen in it. (Ask me about the Vampire Diaries that I missed that had a reference to Twilight in it. I almost died!)

In the fifth episode of the season, Rufus Getting Married, Lily (Kelly Rutherford) and Rufus (Matthew Settle) decide to move up their wedding to the next day, but will someone or something come between them before they become man and wife? Blair (Leighton Meester) grows suspect of Bree (guest star JoAnna Garcia) and shares her concerns with Nate (Chace Crawford). Chuck (Ed Westwick) discovers a secret that Carter (guest star Sebastian Stan) has been keeping from Serena (Blake Lively). Dan (Penn Badgley) and Vanessa (Jessica Szohr) are pulled into one of Georgina’s (Michelle Trachtenberg) schemes.

Now, this is Gossip Girl!

Chace Crawford was seen wearing a suit on the set of Gossip Girl in the Lower East Side in New York City.  That makes me miss NYC so bad. For some reason I need to go there. And with Chace in this suit we can all picture what he might look like if we were to marry him. Ladies?

What are you thinking of the season of Gossip Girl so far?

Chace Crawford hit LAX airport today wearing his cool aviator sunglasses. They must have worked because he was able to skip the line and get escorted right to the gate for take off . I am sure if I saw him at the airport I would want to escort him there myself too.

I finally watched the first episode of Gossip Girl for this season. I’m really confused, it doesn’t have the same feeling as it had the past two seasons so I hope it doesn’t disappoint.

Chace Crawford was practicing his intense stares on the set of Gossip Girl set today, September 21st. I have yet to watch the season premiere. I was kind of confused when I started to watch it, but I plan to catch it really soon. The second episode of the season is on tonight.

Recently he did an interview with OK! magazine about his love life, dealing with fame and working out. Here are the highlights:

On his juicy texts with Lindsay Lohan: It’s funny, I’ve had that question a few times in Europe. I’m not sure where that came from because we’ve been friends and known each other as acquaintances for years and there’s definitely nothing romantic. I’m friends with Samantha [Ronson] and she’s lovely. I wouldn’t do anything to disrespect her or Lindsay I think they’re phenomenal.

On going out alot in New York: Well we like to go to the quieter places, although it depends. Me, Ed [Westwick] and Leighton [Meester] like to go to shows and concerts.

On attention from the media: You’ve got to be aware because the paparazzi are relentless and ruthless and they will stay there until they’ve got a picture. Sometimes we’ll be on set and trying to do a scene and we’ll be forced to stop. Other times you can give them a picture and they’ll go away. It’s just balance. No one can really prepare you for the kind of conditions you’ll come across. You have to deal with it day by day. Sure it’s going to happen but there’s only a small amount of control you have over it.

On going to the gym: Yes, I’m a big gym frequenter. I guess I got it from playing sports in Texas. I played football from fifth grade onwards so working out was part of my lifestyle. My sister’s a personal trainer and my dad and mom go to the gym so it’s kind of a family thing. It’s a way of life, a lifestyle.
