Gossip Girl “The Fugitives” Producers’ Preview

Gossip Girl The Fugitives Bart and Chuck Bass

In last week’s Gossip Girl episode “Raiders of the Lost Art,” we were left picking our jaw up off the floor when Chuck walked in on his dad Bart Bass (who was supposed to be dead) at a sex party Diana was hosting.

After a week of WTFs and OMFGs, we are finally ready to see why Bart is still alive. The Producer’s Preview has been released and executive producer Joshua Safran and team give us the scoop on what to expect:

“This episode is almost like a two-parter,” Joshua said. “Last week’s story was truly ‘What is behind that door?’ and that was revealed. Everybody comes together as a team as they did last week, except for Dan who has gotten a second shot at the summer program in Rome.”

And will the gang figure out the deal with Diana? “Nate and Lola are very intent upon making the public aware of Diana’s past,” Joshua said. “But Diana is not too keen on that happening. So that whole Nate, Diana, Lola triangle really explodes.”

Jake Coburn, co-producer, said we’ll see a fun twist on the history of Serena and Blair‘s friendship. “We wanted to do this story for a couple of years now,” he said. “We tried to do it in the middle of Season 3, and we got our shot this time.”

Check out the video below and tell us what you think (or hope) is going to happen in this episode!

Cecily von Ziegesar Recaps “Raiders of the Lost Art”

Who better to recap each week’s new episode of Gossip Girl than author Cecily von Ziegesar? Find out all her favorite moments in “Raiders of the Lost Art” (Season 5, Episode 22).

Hey People,

I have to say I spent much of last night’s episode demanding — in between slurps of Campari, — “Wait, wait, what did she just say? Where is he going? What’s happening? What’s happening?” I’ve never been good with mysteries. I’m too impatient and I don’t like to be misled. And boy, last night’s episode was jam-packed with red herrings and casually tossed out lines. Maybe I should watch it again. So many subtleties, so little time….

Here are some of my favorite moments (as I remember them):

Best Dress: Serena looked pretty and young and footloose and fancy-free (for a change) in that short black dress with the white flowers all over it. Trés adorable.

Best scheming duo: Chuck and Blair, doing what they do best, without tripping over any of their emotional baggage.

Best Masseur: Dorota oiling and pummeling Diana for information was genius.

Best liar: Nate. His expression never changes, even when he’s lying through his perfect eyebrows.

Prettiest face: There was something tea-cup delicate about Chuck’s face last night—the fact that his entire identity hung in the balance was written all over it. He just needs someone to hold his hand and tell him that he’s loved. We love you Chuck.

Biggest surprise: I won’t spoil it for those of you who haven’t had a chance to watch yet, but sometimes the best surprises come in ugly packages and are given to us by total Bassholes.

Lingering question: Why oh why is Serena so so so hung up on finding out who Gossip Girl is? Does she want to take her out? Become allies? Torture her? I’d much rather Gossip Girl remain a mystery. Wouldn’t you?

You know you love it,

-CvZ

Get The Look For Less: Lola Rhodes in “Salon of the Dead”
