The first thing The CW wants fans to know about “Carnal Knowledge,” the February 2nd episode of Gossip Girl, is that Blair is in the mood for a little revenge, always a good thing.
To get it, she hatches a plan to bring down her teacher, Rachel (Laura Breckenridge). Meanwhile, Chuck wakes up in a hotel and realizes he can barely remember who he was with the night before, not to mention what happened. Enter Nate and Vanessa, who try to help him fill in the missing pieces of the mystery.

On Monday’s (January 12) episode of Gossip Girl called “Gone With the Will“:
Chuck, his brother Jack (Dexter’s Desmond Harrington), and Lily learn who will get what (or not, given the title) of deceased Bart Bass’ estate when the content of his will is revealed.
Also, Rufus searches for information about his child he recently learned about, which causes problems in his relationship with Lily and an even bigger potential problem when Dan puts two and two together and discovers their secret.

I just received a batch of still images from tonight’s brand-new episode of Gossip Girl called “In the Realm of the Basses.”
As just mentioned in my previous post, the plot goes like this:
Chuck’s uncle, Jack Bass (Desmond Harrington of Showtime’s Dexter), visits New York City to track down his missing nephew and help him recover after the recent ordeal of his father’s funeral.
Meanwhile, Blair becomes determined to convince a prestigious ladies’ club called Colony Club to admit her, and Jenny gets ready for a prolonged battle with Penelope at Constance Billard.

The first December episode of Gossip Girl, cleverly called “It’s a Wonderful Lie” after the classic Jimmy Stewart film, is all about deceit (what else?) and snowflakes:
When time for the annual Snowflake Ball rolls around, Blair and Chuck compete to find perfect dates.
Meanwhile, Nate, Jenny, and Vanessa encounter a complicated predicament that could possibly destroy both their friendships and romantic relationships.
And, finally, Serena must keep her emotions in check when Dan becomes the object of Aaron’s ex-girlfriend Lexi’s (Natalie Knepp) desire.
The trailer for the episode follows the jump.

It’s time for a typically angst-ridden and most definitely fabulous holiday episode this Monday on Gossip Girl. It’s name? “The Magnificent Archibalds.”
The holiday in question is Thanksgiving, of course, and Blair spends it unhappy that her mom’s new man Cyrus (Wallace Shawn) is spoiling the way her family usually does things. Unfortunately, something even worse is yet to come.
Elsewhere, Lily tries to make Rufus and spoiled Jenny behave, and Serena has to cope with Aaron (John Patrick Amedori) learning more than she wants him to know about her past from Dan.
Meanwhile, Nate gets a little help from …read more
