What was amazing: Blair, Nate and Chuck closing ranks around Serena. The chemistry between Chuck and Nate in the elevator. The chemistry between Blair and Chuck when they agreed to go after Georgina. The four of them and how they fit and click just so. Like

"I slept with him in the back of a limo."
"A bunch of times."
"I slept with you. Once" ::pointed glare at Chuck::
"I'm Chuck Bass."
Made of win.
The absence of Little J, also a win.
Lily/Rufus. Their chemistry is undeniable. I can't help but feel a bit bad for Daddy Bass there's no way he's going to come out of the situation with anything less than hurt feelings.
Vanessa and Nate, I really like their not official datey-ness. I love how snarky she was when he showed up with his friends, that she hates. Though I can't help but quibble a bit about that, she and Blair reached a detente.
Rufus telling Dan he was judgmental. \o/ THAT was truly awesome.
Dorota getting involved. I LOVE DOROTA.
What I didn't like at all: the swiftness with which the Serena and Lily situation was resolved. That needed at least 10 minutes of screen time, a reveal where Lily possibly went upstairs and watched the rest of the video, or possibly figured out how to find the time stamp. It was needlessly rushed, that could have been spilled over into next season without any difficulty at all.
Dan. I just don't like Dan. I haven't liked him since the first episode, and I haven't liked him in the first three novels. I read on a GG journal yesterday or the day before that Penn is getting really nasty about Chace being the breakout star because GG was supposed to be "His" vehicle. That bugs me nearly as much as Dan's character.
Obviously Ed Westwick is the break out star. check out these pictures and tell me otherwise. I dare you
:-)
How is it possible that David Boreanaz is hotter every single time I see him? That t-shirt he had on made me absolutely gooey. GOOEY. The episode was the best effort since they came back from strike. And OMG dramatic cliffhanger!
But seriously, David is so hot, it hurts

I like V/N a lot, mainly because it's not a true love forever being shoved down our throats. They're teens who make out a little and kind of sort of date. I can appreciate that.
