Now I know that Gossip Girl is probably not really old enough to
be considered a TV Classic just yet,
but I have no doubt that it will be. In fact, I only finished watching the
series about a month ago, and it’s already heading that way for me.
Around the same time that I began work on my dissertation, I
finally joined the 21st century and downloaded Netflix. This was a
potentially dangerous move, I know, but I managed to muster enough strength to
banish myself to the library each day throughout the process.
I’d seen the first series of Gossip Girl years ago, back in
the day of buying boxsets (I’ve never sounded so old), but didn’t get round to
buying the later series, which is why this show was top of my list.
