GG: "Everyone needs to play games"

Gossip Girl aired its first of 10 new episodes Monday following a much too long break. Here is the link to the recap on New York Magazine's Daily Intel blog. And below are a few additions of my own. And while we're at it, I have to admit I almost missed the blog recap more than I missed the show these last few months.

- Lily, who has always had a difficult time fitting into her role as mom, actually took Jenny aside and tried to parent her when Damien showed up at the apartment. Plus one for the attempt, but plus five for Jenny completely blowing her off and rolling her eyes at Lily.
- As much as I dislike Vanessa's character, this episode made it abundantly clear that without Vanessa (unless you count Nate) Dan has no friends. Remember when he was dating Serena and he was considered one of the cool kids? Minus one because now I can't help but feel bad for him, especially with him living alone at the loft in Brooklyn.

What did you think of the episode? I loved the scene where Blair demanded all of Chuck's attention, again reminding us that she thinks she is the center of the universe and all must revolve around her. As for Serena and Nate, I'm not sure I believe their relationship yet. I hope it gets a chance to grow though because I'd hate to see Serena end up back with Dan, especially since they are now related.
