- Top 10 Differences Between Gossip Girl Books & TV Show // Subscribe: ua-cam.com/users/MsMojo?sub_c...
These are the main differences between the Gossip Girl Books and TV show! While some of the major plot points remain intact, the creators of this show took some serious liberties with the source material. In the book, Would I Lie to You?”, which is the tenth in the series, Dan starts a literary salon and goes through a period of thinking he might be gay after he has an encounter with a coworker. In the show, Vanessa has long black hair that she styles in various way, but in the book, Vanessa is actually bald!

Dan and Vanessa don’t have a “will they won’t they” relationship. They have *“please dear god make sure they don’t”* relationship.
Billie Bitch right lmao
Is it weird that I really liked her and Nate
I couldn’t stand either of them so I’m convinced they deserve each other
Agreed
I liked them together tbh
I hated how Serena was always getting what she wanted, while Blair actually worked hard for everything she wanted and often got snubbed. Blair was my favorite not Serena.
yh same
I don't agree, Blair was not that bad. Nobody is perfect. I guess you don't know human nature.
EXACTLY!!! And I never understood why the fuck she was mad at Blair for dating Dan, does she keep forgetting that she FUCKED NATE!!!??? WHILE Blair and him were dating, she kissed Dan when Serena and him were waayyyy over.
Not only that but Blair does EVERYTHING for Serena, Serena never does shit for Blair
+Anneetta Life
Same here. Blair's ambition set her apart from Serena, and it's part of the reason why like Blair more.
I’m saying !
If Rufus and Lily never got together in the books, why the hell would they write that storyline for the show? I think they just needed an excuse for Dan and Serena to break up so Dan could literally date every other female on the show.
lmao so true
I loved Rufus and Lily together and all their history
Because they needed more storylines for the tv show.
the show producers were the same guys from the oc, so they wanted to include the parents and make their storyline relevant
It’s funny cause it’s true- Spongebob
I actually do think bliars bulimia was a missed opportunity I would have loved for them to delve into the story line and I was disappointed when they didnt
NattyJane I agreee ! It was so useless in the show. Why did they bring it in to do that --"
Emily Smithson I agree but I also feel like it would make Blair more relatable and it would probably help a lot of teenaged girl going through the same thing, show them that you can be powerful despite having a mental illness
Im a guy and i am late but this topic wasnt the thing to talk about at the time. nowadays it is way different. people arent scared to talk about it even on television. it was difficult to handle on tv.
But her bulimia is mentioned in the TV show, what are y'all talking about?
possibly because its a story line thats been overdone so much already, cant believe people are still interested in it. I actually rolled my eyes at that episode. its just such a cliche writing. oh the pretty girl hanging over a toilet with masacara running down her eyes to still look pretty(eating disorder have been romantized so much im so fucking done with it) any teen drama series has had a center topic on eating disorders since the 80s lol.
So glad Chuck got a bigger role in Gossip Girl 😂☺️ him and Blaire together were the reason I watched Gossip Girl
Re-watch it now. It's way less romantic and epic when you understand how gross he is.
Juonithz Ramos I only watched gossip for the first time last year and I've rewatched it 3 times
And I still enjoy watching the character
May I ask your age?
Juonithz Ramos 18
Okay, thank you.
Did Vanessa annoy the shit out of anyone else or just me?
Yea
Jenny did
Vanessa is my least favorite, literally her face annoys me and I just want to punch her. Then Jenny is my 2nd least favorite
Am I the only one who hated Rufus?
I actually felt liked her. Never did I hate main characters as bad as this show. However, I had a love-hate thing for Dan, Blair, and Chuck's characters. I did love Dan and Blair as a couple though.
Gosh I can't even imagine how the whole storyline would have evolved without the limo scene
Dijana K ikr or without chuck's family plot or bass industries!!!
Everyone keeps saying that they forgot to mention how chuck was bisexual in the books but in the series he admitted to being with guys before in the past to Blair...
Kyah Clauzel yeah but in the series it sounds like he just experimented with other guys in the past, but is actually straight. In the books he actually IS bisexual, and not just experimenting.
Valeria Funez exactly. In the show he doesn’t seem interested in guys. Actually, the only time he kisses a guy in the show is in order to help Blair in a scheme.
He hadnt been with guys, he had only kissed one before
He admits to kissing guys but they never outright say he's bisexual. It doesn't seem like he's really interested in guys throughout the show. In fact he seemed grossed out when he had to kiss that one guy. But they definitely did hint at it a few times and I honestly think they missed an opportunity to make him bi in the show bc it would've fit a lot with his character.
@@Emily-ii6si true. it would’ve been so interesting to see Chuck with boys. I’m 99% sure he IS straight in the show, though, because when he said he’d kissed guys before it sounded like it was just an experience he’d had.
You missed how different Nate is!! In the books he's a massive stoner, who's gorgeous and sweet, but rather stupid. And the main plot of the books is the love triangle between Serena, Blair, and Nate. Also, Dan and Vanessa didn't just have a "will they or won't they" relationship" in the books, they were soul mates! Also, Chuck was bisexual!
Veronnica MacKillop in the show he mentions he has kissed boys multiple times before and Nates character is kind of similar. We dont see it much nor does he dress like it but its been seen and mentioned many many times that he is a stoner. Also its clear in the show that he is sweet but a little stupid
Laura Gallaher Nate’s supposed to be a fuckboy, not the warm, caring, person he is on the show. Only the first few episodes got his character right
These books sound better.
"massive stoner, who's gorgeous and sweet, but rather stupid" is exactly how the character appear in the TV show
saammmy7 he's a lot dumber the books Haha 😂 and he smokes weed aaaaall the time.
GG wouldn't be same without Chuck and Blair drama lol 💞
Luda Balkanska after season 2 they were literally the main characters hahahah
Luda Balkanska so true!
true i love them so much ahha
Martina Vega Nobody actually cared about anything else at that point lol 😄
Lol no it wouldn't be the same, lol that's the point of the video. It was still a good book series though. The tv show would have made boring books.
The romance on GG was beyond crazy...Everybody dated everybody like wtfffff😱😱😫😫😫 Best friends who share the same men😖😖
Charity Rich irl is the same
I don't know what kind of friends you have irl but it is NOT the same!
I went to high school with these two girls who were best friends and they both dated the same guy on and off. It was like some messed up exchange every few weeks. *shudders*
+Lisa-Maree Exactly😂😂😂😂
+xxIluvyouguysxx Boo I watch daytime soaps but even in that everybody don't date everybody....Mostly be like brothers in love with the same girl or whatever....Plus this is a primetime soap it shouldn't have been that soapy😒
1. Nate's character and family are really different on the books from the show. He is the major male character, along with Dan, but the two of them hardly interact, in fact they don't even go to the same school! His obscession with smoking in the books is a really big part of his charcter. In the books Serena and Blair are constantly fighting over Nate, whereas on the show it was a mistake Serena made once and regrets. His father is a really tough Captain, and his mother is a waify french socialite.
2. The characters in the books are a lot less focused on schemes and taking each other down, and a lot more consumed with their own individual crazy adventures like Dan becoming a poet, Serena becoming a famous actress, Vanessa as a DoP and Jenny becoming a model. They have a lot more random celebrity friends in the books.
3. There is a lot more references to strong drug use in a very casual way in the books like the ski trip with Georgina Sparks, or stealing the viagra from the teacher.
4. Overall the tone of the books is a lot more light hearted. The parents are barely involved in the children's life and they are often away, leaving their children completely to their own devices.
5. Vanessa's character is really awesome in the books and she has a lot more backbone. She is actually friends with Blair and Serena in the books and mostly pretty oblivious to the major class differences and she only cares about film.
6. Chuck's character in the books is also briefly gay!
7. Blair has 4 siblings in the books!
8. Rufus still always cooks in the books but he's a terrible cook and puts rum in everything!
9. Nate and Jenny date for ages in the books, even living together at university!
10. The books are much more Blair focused whereas the Tv series alternates between Blair and Serena.
Both the books and the tv series are awesome and totally addictive!
the books sound soooo much better and much more interesthing too. im kinda disappointed with the direction the show headed in now.
Who all is endgame in the books
@@elmore707 Read the books, they are amazing, but don't compare the two stories, as they are very different after all.
for #9, apparently the reason why they never properly finished the nate + jenny storyline is because chace crawford was uncomfortable “dating” a minor. and also once taylor momsen had turned 18 jenny was basically non-existent in the show
@@mrods999 The fact that Ms. Momsen wanted to focus more on her music (her band, The Pretty Reckless) was a big factor for Jenny's fewer appearances and later being written off (until her return for the series finale)
I’m so glad they used the series to make chuck a main character, rather than a minor like in the books
Siobhan _ same Chuck is important
same
Same
I just wish they didn’t erase his sexuality. He’s openly bisexual in the books.
amsayyy but he has said that he’s kissed boys in the series
Actually Jenny idolizes Blair and NOT Serena on the show. She told Blair that she wanted to be her friend and not Serenas.
Jenny eventually stops being obsessed with Serena in the books, though.
The way the show did Dan and Vanessa may have been the most disappointing thing about the show. Those two are supposed to be outsiders, remain outsiders and be damn proud that they are outsiders, as well as bringing a shred of humanity to the upper east siders. They are not supposed to scheme with them and against them.
Agreed vanessa was the most disappointing. The actress who played her said she herself and her character being a biracial minority was the result of the majority Caucasian writers not writing good storylines for her
@@Kevin-rg3yc so they gave her bad storylines on purpose because shes biracial?
i loved vanessa at the beginning, but they definitely did her dirty!
DL1982 Peters I’m saying the show writers just didn’t know how to explore the complexity of Vanessa characteristic similar to the other characters bc of her biracial background that something the actress and even the author of the original book series said
I’m glad that Chuck was a main character on the show, he was so interesting. On the other hand, I agree Blair’s bulimia was a total missed opportunity. And Vanessa, I prefer Vanessa’s book version much more.
I am watching the show now..and I HATE SERENA! Blair at least owned up to it..she was competitive and she admitted it. Serena was always so sly..I just watched the episode where she tries to get her cousin to be the 'it' girl..then gets jealous and humiliates her...I know it's just a show but it infuriates me that Serena is still portrayed as goodie goodie on the show despite herself.
Serena wants to be good, not food. I respect that. Just Blair kind of stole the show.
I love Serena she's so kind but I totally agree with u about the Lola thing, she treated her cousin so bad and was driving me crazy at that point
I like the girl with temptation...who feels like a real person being good and being with those friends. Just felt like it was a lazy hook in the story lines to have her keep resorting back to her old behavior.
Britni Salinger I don't know how I can show you my appreciation for your opinion that I a hundred percent agree with.
Haha no she's not. To me she is portrayed as a spoiled privilege white girl that plays the victim all the time because she has no clue what to do with herself half the time. She think she has it all together but doesn't; she still in high school and makes a lot of dumb choices. But that's what I see and how the show portrayed her to me. 😊 ahhh I love seeing the comments here to hear people's opinion it's so fun and interesting!!!
The show would've made more sense if Vanessa went to Constance. She was always going to their parties anyway.
yeah like on a scholarship for academics/ film. that would make sense
This makes me want to watch gg all over again
m2003 Mel you should
same
I'm watching it all over again now 😂
I have literally watched it 4 times already and it never gets boring
You should it's on Netflix all 6 seasons
Also, the t.v. show reveals Dan as being Gossip Girl but the books never reveal Gossip Girl's identity. Jenny's character on the show also seems to take more elements of her personality from the "It Girl" books rather than the Gossip Girl books.
"the t.v. show reveals Dan as being Gossip Girl but the books never reveal Gossip Girl's identity" - THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN NUMBER 1 ON THIS LIST.
ya but its a spoiler
wasn't chuck gossip girl in the books? it''s been a while but I thought that was a thing
no
@@xXTheRedrubyXx No. A few "readers" (in the letters to GG in the book) asked this, and GG answered "I have no monkey friend by my side (referring to Chuck's pet monkey), and I'm as girly as a girl can get". GG's identity is never made clear, not even in the spin-off "Gossip Girl: The Carlyles", where another "reader" asked if she was Chuck, since the previous core group (B, S, N, D and V) left to college and GG was still online.
Some of these episodes were literally OUTRAGEOUS
iesha Hunt Then you've never seen skins this show is tame compared to that show!
coleyt2 yesssss i love skins so much, not so much the third gen though, first gen is the best
like every episode with Nate lmao
Literally not a single scene of that show is outrageous EXCEPT maybe when Dan slept with their teacher that one time, but otherwise??? I mean I like the show, believe me, but in comparison to other teen shows it IS tame.
So just the character's names are the same?
Ana T yepp
no blair is olivia
The books sound boring in comparison lol
Exactly
Y'all forgot about Chuck being gay in the books. Half way through the book series Chuck comes out as gay.
Lloyd Williams that honestly makes more sense than chuck being straight. Look at the way he dresses.
Jaybird J Hahaha so true!
I for sure thought that would be #1 on the list!
oml what
the way you dress doesn't make you gay lol, if that were if that were true all girls who wear boys gym shorts are gay
The Dan gay storyline is still more believable than that Dan/Blair romance 🤮🤮
i know like why d*n and blair
ikrrr what in the damn world were they thinking I couldn’t even watch that without cringing 😫
@@happychildforever9750 at least he never sold Blair for a hotel. You have to admit Dan treated Blair a lot better than Chuck did.
@@moon.937 Doesn’t make it any better lol just because someone was “better” towards you (which Dan wasn’t at all either,she was so damn lost for the most time) doesn’t mean they are better for u. Dan fell in love with a character from his book and not Blair and unlike him Chuck actually loved her. And in the end they found their way to each other again 🤷🏻♀️ Chuck might have been an A class asshole to Blair but he grew and matured. He had an amazing character development. Dan and Blair had such a great friendship and imo they really shouldn’t have ruined that 🥴
it just didn't make sense tbh, and they should've toned down on all the haters to lovers-
Chuck and Blair were fine as haters to lovers, but adding another one? seemed like they were too hungry for drama WHICH WAS UNEEDED.
I remember reading the first book, and literally the whole book was just the first episode of the show lol
Aurora Anciso oh wow 😂
Omg really- well that would’ve been a bit boring. I’m glad they switched it up but I wished Serenate would’ve end up together.
Oh shit 😅
Yes, just what I tought.
To add another difference: in the novels, Blair is wait listed at Yale, doesn't haze a teacher and actually gets admitted. She also decides to pursue a career in law unlike in the TV show where she goes to NYU then Columbia and pursues a career in fashion like her mother.
Also, in the novels Chuck & Blair do end up dating while running into each other during a semester studying abroad at Oxford but end up breaking up. It's never really stated whether or not they get back together. The last novel just shows Blair & Serena deciding to travel throughout Europe together leaving Nate behind and ultimately choosing each other over constantly fighting over him (which was also one of the main story lines throughout the novels and not in the TV series).
Wasn't there something about a kiss and she didn't get admitted at first?
i like this version!
@@annerittwage1401 hi! I know it’s been 4 years but I literally just saw this comment now when I was notified that someone else commented on original post lol
Yes, you’re right. In the novel (which is also portrayed in the show), Blair kisses her Yale interviewer on the cheek in a moment of panic and desperation after pretty much tanking her interview 😂 at least she got in in the books despite all of that
Ms. Mojo is Gossip Girl.
I'm a little ashamed about how quickly I clicked on this
Gossip Girl will be forever one of the most iconic teen shows of all time.
What about Aaron Rose. He was in almost every book and he was in love with Blair. I actually liked all the changes they made in the Gossip Girl show except their exclusion of Aaron Rose.
I thought the painter guy that Serena dated briefly was Aaron Rose
Greatest Eva he is, in the books though he was more frequently featured. We never see him again after him and serena broke up even though he is Cyrus' son
I was in love with Aaron in the books, and he was so cute with Blair.
He was so boring
Actually, Aaron was in love with Serena both in books and show. He became Blair's brother when his dad married Blair's mom.
Please! Differences between The Vampire Diaries books and TV.
please do that
Thanks for the suggestion, Sabrina!
yes please
it would be easier to mention the similarities
Sabrina Diniz agree
I’m busy with my Homework, so I wanted to Skip the video. But then I saw the word Gossip girl😂
Good call, Yasmin :)
MsMojo Always 🙃
my boy nate got left out AGAIN
I think Ed Westwick brought so much to the character of Chuck they couldn’t help but make Chuck a forefront character. His and Blaires plot lines carried the show. Ed and Leighton have incredible chemistry and the writers worked around that.
In regards to Rufus I think the writers were inspired by a Sandy Cohen type dad. (Same creators from the OC after all) i think they saw how well it worked there and replicated the same archetype dad with him. Approachable, loving, down to earth, full of good advice. Lily also reminds me or Kirsten now that i think about it so i think there was a lot of cross over ideas there.
Omg.... if chuck and Blair never happens I would be lost
I would have dropped the show!
Asvea haha me too tbh
Damn, they should be shaved Vanessa's head.
Do top 10 differences between pretty little liars on tv and in books.
maxine chan OMG YESS
maxine chan 1.mona dies after falling off the cliff. 2.ezra is a Minor character only. 3.caleb doesn't exist in the books. 4.aria dates noel for most of the books. 5.toby was a creep in the books and he also commits Suicide. 6.hanna and Lucas dates on the books. 7.emily dates both girls and guys in the books and ends up ding dong ditching her baby. 8.hanna dates arias brother Mike. 9.theres no N.A.T club in the books. 10.hanna ends up in radley after -A exposes her bulimia (where as in the show it was spencer in radley). 11.No Spoby. 12.emily has 2 sisters and a brother. 13.ali's twin sister Courtney was the one who was friends with the girls (also mr Hastings is Ali and Courtney's father making them spencer and Melissa's half sisters).
“Book” Vanessa was WAY more interesting
Blair should have gone to Yale
Omg so true o was disappointed when she didn't get in Yale like WTF
This is the first time I even heard of a book xD
Me too didn't know there was a book
I can’t imagine it without chair being a big relationship
The top pick should’ve been gossip girl’s identity was never revealed in the books
only reason not to read the gossip girl books: THERES NO CHAIR!!
Esme Purdon more like only reason to read the book
I was skeptical about reading the books at first because of that, but they are SO good. It might not be everyone's cup of tea, but I feel like the author nailed the world of Gossip Girl in a totally different way than the writers of the TV show did
Esme Purdon More like a good reason to read the books
Well, there is...
Ava Silvestri thanks! I might read them
I beg to differ that Rufus and lily were a favorite, they were on and off so much...it was annoying. And they didn’t even end up together in the finale (not that they could) but damn...
honey monet since I read the books before I watched the show (and I didn't watch a lot of it), I could not get over the fact that Rufus and lily were brought even remotely close together. Completely different from the books. Why did everyone on the show have to be hot? Rufus was old, had a pot belly and was a slob.
Gossip Girl marathon after watching this lol.
Lilly Yarney SAME
Another difference between the books and the show...the whole timeline.
In the show, the first season starts off with them being juniors in high school; second season, seniors. In the books, up until book 8 I think, it is set during their senior year of high school only.
Scotti Brown 7 books about one year. Damn. Must have been a lot of flash back.
Micah Williams it was pretty much like book 1 would be the first month of school so September, by book 7 it’s like late May/early June...something among those lines
Scotti Brown wow. I can see why Serena ran away If months of my life was that dramatic. Shit.
ANOTHER GOSSIP GIRL VIDEO😍yaaass!! thank you thank you thank you msmojo❤️
What can we say, we love Gossip Girl! Let us know if there's anything else related to the show that you would want to see!
MsMojo please do more O.C videos...great show same producer as gossip girl
I'm glad the show deviated so much from the book. The book sounds very boring.
C Ewe the books are really good. I recommend.
Dan was supposed to be bisexual? What? Why they changed that?!
So dan had a gay experience. Chuck is bi. Erick was actually straight and a player but they made him gay.
@@crysdee461 that would've have been so weird with Chuck and Dan lmao
Paul Pogba The Black Sensation I don’t know why you think that’d be weird lol...
@@crysdee461 because they pretty much hate each other
Paul Pogba The Black Sensation oh they never dated each other in the books. Chuck is bi and dan was experimenting with another person that was not Chuck lol.
Different strokes for different folks but I prefer to show especially with how much Chuck grew and how they handled Dan.
Could have done without Dan and Blair dating. They could have just been good friends and it would have been fine.
I literally just finished watching Gossip Girl today, now I am bing watching all the Ms Mojo videos about it!
Now i want to rewatch the show and read the books.
I thought Jenny idolized Blair in the show
sharu812 I was thinking the same thing! But I’m pretty sure that we’re right, she idolized Blair rather than Serena, I think they made a mistake 😂
sharu812 she idolized Blair on the show, but in the books, she idolized Serena.
sharu812 I think she did at first, but then she stopped, she did idolise Serena in the first couple of episodes, so you could say she idolised them both
sharu812 she did idolize her for most of it not Sarena.
I believe you need to watch the show again she wanted to be like Blair most of the entire show not Serena.
As a gossip girl books fan, when I first saw Blair and Chuck together I cringe so hard, but then I fell in love!! Best tv couple ever
Is it me or the books sound awful?
Cut me and I'll bleed Dior right!! They made it sound like the books were horrible
They still sound better than the show
The books aren’t the best but let me tell you they are addictive
I actually like the books better than the tv show.
The books ARE awful. They can't even be called 'literature'. TV show is so much better.
Do this for Pretty Little LiArs!!!
lorettaluvs maxine chan 1.mona dies after falling off the cliff. 2.ezra is a Minor character only. 3.caleb doesn't exist in the books. 4.aria dates noel for most of the books. 5.toby was a creep in the books and he also commits Suicide. 6.hanna and Lucas dates on the books. 7.emily dates both girls and guys in the books and ends up ding dong ditching her baby. 8.hanna dates arias brother Mike. 9.theres no N.A.T club in the books. 10.hanna ends up in radley after -A exposes her bulimia (where as in the show it was spencer in radley). 11.No Spoby. 12.emily has 2 sisters and a brother. 13.ali's twin sister Courtney was the one who was friends with the girls (also mr Hastings is Ali and Courtney's father making them spencer and Melissa's half sisters).
Correction Hanna marries Mike & the rehab place is called The Perserve at Addison Stevens
I think it would have been nice if Eric was older and had a brief romance with Blair--it would be very juicy. I hate vanessa but if she has to be in the show I think it would have been interesting to stick with the book version.
Camille Weil same I hate Vanessa too. She got on my last nerve and how she treated Jenny ugh
but Eric is gay on the show and sam I also hate Vanessa
i meant keep the book version
I literally just finished watching GG for like the 3rd time and I''m probably watching it again❤️
The world needs more Gossip Girl videos !!!
Thank god the editors changed that, cause I could never imagine chuck not being a major character
Lol i just noticed that they never mentioned Nate until the end
Nate was the least interesting character in the show.
Anneetta Life Agree. Everyone liked him because, I mean, he is Chace Crawford...
People hate Vanessa for No reason she deserved more air time and a way better story line even while being the hero it was misconstrued as her being an enemy. Which literally made no sense as though she adds humanity to every character
@@cierrajackson9982Vanessa and Georgina drugged Serena and got her sent to rehab….. Blair dated chuck who sa’d her best friend and Jenny. Y’all are comparing Serena’s boy drama to things that are ILLEGAL. Vanessa was not a good person .
“You know u love me xoxo gossip girl.” Damn I will always remember that iconic line forever
I literally thank the show for Chuck Bass!
In the French version of the books, Blair's name is Olivia *major shocking difference*
Jimi Desmet Yeah and in the TV show Tripp name is Seb like why
Can we talk about how much Nate and Serena were in love with each other? And that they should have been together not Serena and Dan😐
Sabrina Henning agree
preach. we should always talk about that!
It was kinda one sided for Serena it was always Dan.
I only got up to the 4th book in my teens (i plan on getting back into the series), but I remember thinking that Nate and Serena deserved each other... and I don't mean that in a good way. I didn't like either characters; I saw both of them as dumb airheads that never seemed to have their feet to the floor.
I held much more respect for Blair despite how much of bitch she can be. She deserves much more than having Serena and Nate as they 'friends'.
I actually hope it would be Dan and Nate tho 😂😂
it is pleasant to know that most of the changes where for good. most shows and movies fuck up the source material in a bad way.
Quite the contrast between book and show! Thanks for the info.
GG would be nothing without Chuck Bass his and blair's relationship was the best part of the show
Season 1-6 Blair was my favorite character and always will be...long live QUEEN of the upper east side👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑👑
Thank you! I am just now watching the show now...so cool! ❤
Didn't even know this show was based off books!!! I HAVE to read them all now! All of these difference omg
Chuck had an amazing story arc in gossip girl but all the story arcs of the major characters were rushed to a climax in season 6. Why did s6 only have 10 episodes??? They had so much content to end the gg universe in a fulfilling way, i.e. showing a Blair labour scene with Chuck next to her holding her hands. That would have literally melted my heart
because the author worked as an executiv eproducer on the show i thought it was very similar to the books but i have been FOOLED wtf im buying the books today
Yayy thank u sooooooooo much ms mojo
Looks like the books deal with a lot more important issues than the show, I'm thinking of listening to the audio books .
I don’t care what anyone says, Rufus and Lily made the show for me. It’s a shame they weren’t endgame 💔👎🏼
Kirsten Zammit I know right!
They should've been 😭
they were tho right?
didn't they still get married?
They ended up divorcing....the best couple that stuck through the most in my opinion
Yeah same I really wanted them together so Nate and serena would be endgame
I totally loved chuck involvement in the series
Another thing, apparent in the books, gossip girl is never revealed
I just finished the show tonight and the comment section on this video is a safe place to put my GG post depression. CHAIR IS MY AIR LITERALLY
Alright... just don't date guys like Chuck in real life... trust me....
Chuck is my favorite character.
Not gonna lie, I liked what Bart brought to the show as a character, and I wish they would've done more with his and Chuck's relationship when they brought him back.
Chuck Bass is such an amazing character, how some fans can hate him is beyond me.
In the book they described Vanessa as a pale, bald girl whose wardrobe was filled with black shirts, but when i started watching the show I was so confused. Same with Eric, he was supposed to be older than Blair.

Anthony Fay THANK YOU
the books sound amazing and different entirely, kinda wish we’d got to see it in a truer form
Adrienne Paige the books are like a parallel universe but they’re SOOOO GOOD
I love this channel
this show right here made my childhood awesome
OMG I'm so glad they changed it, the tv show is far much better like can anyone imagine Gossip Girl without Chair because I know I ceraintly can't. They were the reason I continued watching GG of course otherwise than the fact that the show is great.
Chair?
@@velmadoo626 Chuck+Blair=Chair
Love this show (on season 4 and I'm hooked) but Serena went from my favourite to hated. She was so mean towards blair (yes I know, blair can be mean too) but her character development keeps going downhill. She keeps going from guy to guy, hurting people and getting away with it and I hate how everybody does everything/everyone for her and I don't see why. It's chair that is making me want more ♡
yeah Serena was by far the best character in season 1. I just hate how the writers destroyed her
Ok but I love the little nod to the pet monkey by naming chuck’s dog monkey lmao
I need to watch this show over again.
I only clicked because the thumbnail said gay😂
so basically the tv series is far much BETTER than the books
I remember reading the books, I was mostly shocked with the differences of Eric's Character
Everyone keeps saying that they forgot to mention how chuck was bisexual or gay in the books but he admitted to being with guys before in the past to Blair...
I live for point 6!!! Lily and Rufus forever!!!
thank you
You should do a video showing the differences between the PLL movies and books!
Okay to everybody that hasn't read the books and watched this video thinking the books are boring; Watch Mojo did a shitty job explaining the books and what kind of feeling they had compared to the series.
The books are amazing: deeper, darker, more interesting and at the same time more toned down. The only thing that is better with the tv-series is what they have done with Chuck and his relationship with Blair.
When I first started watching the show I was so disappointed, but had to acknowledge that the show was a new story and had nothing to do with the characters I fell in love with in the books.
What’s better with the TV show is Blair. Leighton made the book character come alive and then some. Cecily Von Ziegesar, the writer of the GG novels, thought Leighton was “totally perfect for Blair”.
