About: The original series revolves around the lives of privileged upper-class adolescents living in Manhattan's Upper East Side. The series begins with the return of Upper East Side teenage "it girl" Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively) from a mysterious absence. She is reunited with her frenemy Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester) and her mother Lily (Kelly Rutherford), and she also meets Dan Humphrey (Penn Badgley)-an aspiring writer from Brooklyn who is one of Serena's main love interests throughout the show. Other main characters include Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford), Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick), Jenny Humphrey (Taylor Momsen), Vanessa Abrams (Jessica Szohr), Rufus Humphrey (Matthew Settle) and Ivy Dickens (Kaylee DeFer).
Intellectual equals who always worked hard for everything they got and shared their love for the arts with each other?? Going from enemies to friends to lovers?? Y’all will never make me hate them!
Speak on it 🗣️
AMEN
Let's not forget it was his posting that resulted in blair losing her baby. 😂😂😂
@@CHAMPIONSCRUCIBLE let’s not forget the writers had no clue who gossip girl was until the very end & essentially threw dan under the bus for shock value because they knew there would be minimal backlash after they already spent a whole season making him a villain. the plot holes are numerous and most people agree that it made no sense.

I love Dair. He was the only guy, during the entire show, who truly loved and respected her. Her only healthy relationship. Waiting for the Serena and Nate video!
After all these years i still can not understand how people can concider them as a healty couple. The only reson Blair decided to be with dan was cuz she basically lost her mind during season 5. She went through so much and she needed to be taken care of. And she felt she would found that comfort in Dan because she knew he loved her and was there for her. Ironically he sometimes was the only one with her because he was isolating her from chuck and serena. He was always trying to make chuck as a bad guy, for example after her bachelorette party he let blair think that chuck was behind this whole aressting thing. Or when he found out about the dowry he let her think it was just because he want to win her back. Dan was so insecure cuz he knew that sooner or later blair will choose chuck and im not saying this just because im team chair. It it clear that for blair dan was only a rebound and she never loved him. She even said that she knew he would never hurt her that’s why she settled for him. Even though he hurt her. He did probably most horrible thing by uploading on gg video at her and loui’s wedding. He knew it is going to ruin everything between and he knew he could easily blame chuck for it. He knew it that blair would believe him. It made sense in his head. He wasnt just trying to help her he wanted and all he could to be with her. He even manipulated her to be with him by saying that either she would be with him or she will lose him as a friend. She was just terrified of being alone. She went through so much during that season she needed something safe and simple. But it wasnt true love. She never truly respected him because after they broke up she went back to treating him as a trash and as someone less worthy form rest of them. I get it if you prefer dan and blair i can say that they were a decent copule in couple of episodes but they weren’t healthier than most of other couples in the show. Maybe if they relationship happened during different circumstances i would like them more. But they only got them together just to keep blair and chuck away from each other till the end of the season and you cant simply argue with that. Dan wanted blair all to himself he desperately wanted her to go with him to italy because he knew it was the only way they would stay together for longer. Before his offer she never thought about spending summer with him, she knew it wasnt something serious between them. She described him in her diary as “fun”. Sometimes i wonder if i can say she kinda used him?? But i dont know. And just like serena said he didnt love the real blair he loved blair he created in his book, because if he truly loved her and wanted her to be happy he would encourage her to be with chuck. Before accident he event told her that blair and chuck are meant for each-other. The most funny thing about dair shippers is that they always say that they had so much trust which is so not true. Dan didn’t trust blair, he even stalked her when he knew she was close to chuck. Im not saying he didn’t have his reasons to be suspicious but it only proves my point that he was aware about blair’s feelings towards chuck. Im not gonna even mention how he cheated on blair with serena and said that he thought she changed. He didn’t understand her at all, they may have mutual interest in movies and literature which I personally found adorable and i love them as friends but only as friends. The thing i like about chuck is that he matured and grew up and became worthy of blair’s love. Dan got only worse during the show.
@@weronika8709Dan didn’t need to make Chuck out to be a bad guy. He is a bad guy. Attempted r*pe isn’t something you grow up and grow out of. There’s no maturing necessary. He shouldn’t be allowed near anyone - Blair included.
I don’t care about people not liking Dan and Blair as a couple …we each like the tropes that we like but Chuck support???? In 2024???
@@weronika8709 Finally someone telling the truth! Thank you! I thought I was the only one who thought so
@@disneygurl921 Chuck wanting to SA Jennie was in the pilot, he also had a mother then. the writers went in a different direction when the show was picked up but they couldnt change the pilot. the SA attempt was only brought back 4 season later to cause drama to break them up and CHuck had his redemption arch
@@deusexmachina9776 Regardless of what the writers intended - my opinions of him are based on what was presented to me on the screen. There are a lot of writers who wish they’d done things differently after the fact. At the end of the day, that is the character they wrote and those are the actions he took.
Being an adult is realizing Dan and Blair were the only healthy relationship on the show.
Chuck trafficked Blair to his Uncle for a hotel. It’s not only one of the most illegal crimes, its despicable and unforgivable. He did not respect her as a human being.
Trafficked!? 😂😂😂
@@CHAMPIONSCRUCIBLEwell pimped is more accurate and then he tried to r*pe her at season 4. They pushed dan and serena, and chuck and blair down our throats. Serena and nate should’ve been endgame as well as dan and blair. Chuck well should’ve had a downfall.
@@CHAMPIONSCRUCIBLE That’s exactly what he did.
@@goldrush18x th-cam.com/video/OoipOm2_EAE/w-d-xo.html
Dan was the only person Blair could be her true self with. They had the same hobbies, passions, interests and deep inner world. Both intellectuals. Blair didn’t have to be “on guard” and putting on a show and proving her power like she always did with Chuck. She could actually just relax and be a real human being with Dan, and he was the only person who brought it out of her. She’d be so adorable sweet funny and cute with him. Her and Chuck had intense passion yes and it was entertaining, but she had a real soul deep love with Dan. Chuck loved Blair’s power. But Dan loved Blair’s soul, underneath the mask she always wore and he was the only person who ever got to see it
I am not still over the fact that they separated even after 10 years.
Whenever I see their edit my heart gets heavy
I was on the edge of my seat for this couple. They had amazing chemistry together. I stopped watching when the writers randomly broke them up. Very strange to put Blair back with her abuser.
People who don't see how good for each other they were, are stuck in a perspective of a love that weakens you. Blair was not only vulnerable with Chuck, she was placed in an inferior position as the video shows. As a teenager you don't understand this, that's okay, but as an adult it's very worrying. Dan and Blair were the good, simple love that Blair once wanted. He saw her completely (she said in the vows). Their dynamics were fun and brought a new air to the series. Blair subjecting herself to getting back together with Chuck was a discredit to the character and the entire evolution of the storytelling.
No because how can people still hate them together?! Do you guys seriously not see how pure and healthy their love is? They had such a natural progression over the course of the show, and we still didn’t see it coming because we were led to believe otherwise with how heavily they focused on the other main ships. Dan and Blair brought out a different side of one another and definitely completed each other with how they were equals and partners in their relationship. Their development is honestly so beautiful, and their relationship was such a delight to witness. They were so refreshing and pleasing to the eye for me because of how much they grew to care for one another. Their indirect slow burn and development was perfect in every way! They deserved to end up together.
Even Leighton and Penn liked their relationship, so I really wish people would give them a chance. They really were the real deal, and I loved them so much. If only some of the fandom could see how perfect they were to each other because of their shared interests and how well they got along. They really could’ve gone so far in their relationship if people were more open about them 😭❤️
They even remind me of Rory and Jess from Gilmore Girls because of the conversationalist aspect of their relationship and their philosophical and intellectual banters!
I genuinely believe that the most important part of a relationship is conversation, and their dynamic was very interesting and entertaining because there was always something new they had to talk about to keep the comfortable vibe they’ve got going! By talking about literally anything and everything, they can easily do so much about what they discuss :)
Dayum you went all out. Guess you really are passionate about em together
It's so we'll written😭You said literally everything I had in mind
@@ahgasengeneinspiritcarat thank you! I’m glad you agree :)
I have never liked a comment more . They were the only couple to actually make sense
I also love Jess and Rory - definitely agree with that part
he brought the best of her and Blair brought Dan's cunning side; they were perfect for each other.
THE BETTER SHIP ARGUE WITH THE WALL!!!!!!!!!
Ew No
Dan should end up alone
@@StefansLcveYesss! I hate Dan
@@StefansLcve Chuck should’ve ended up in prison
Chuck in prison and Dan alone @@goldrush18x
@@StefansLcveYou sound like you're hot for Chuck
Dair was the best couple of GG, the dynamic was great, they were funny and complimented each other so well. Dare to dair always!
Yes they were awesome but she didn’t LOVE him tho
Yeah and considering how easy ended up sleeping with Serena and how hurt was she use sleeping with him as part of scheme shows how hurt he was by it. That was the thing that pushed him over the edge to write the serial and call Gorgina
blair and dan were the best gossip girl couple. the writers/makers really fumbled with this one. if only they were brave enough to make them endgame. this couple was the only one that actually had growth throughout the show. from enemies to bitter accomplices to being able to bear each other to acquaintances to friends to lovers. they were fucking perfect for each other. the only man who saw her as more then what others saw her. they truly were equals. instead they go back to toxic relationships and boring relationships that outlived their purpose.
just imagine the plot when blair and dan are going steady and she finds out he was gossip girl all along. she would have been angry at first and then she would actually be impressed he pulled off something like that. they would have work through new sets of doubts and tribulations but they would find a way to make it work. missed opportunity.
if they had been endgame, it would have the ultimate enemies to lovers and the ultimate rich girl poor boy couple in the television universe. i will forever resent the makers for not giving me that!!!!
THIIISS!!!!☝🏻
Becoming an adult and maturing is realizing and admitting that the couple Dan & Blair was the best couple (and especially the healthiest) of the entire series. Chuck and Blair will always be iconic and adored but this couple is the very embodiment of the original toxic couple. Dan brought out the best in Blair, he loved her for who she was. And she was obviously happier and more fulfilled with him. The whole arc of the beginning of their friendship and their couple is very well written
END GAME IN MY BOOKS
"I want a pure, simple love like you and Vanya have" Blair said to Dorota.... she had it with Dan, but had so little self worth she went back to the complete opposite of that. Vicious cycle. I wish s6 instead of being repetitive fodder had explored this part of Blair and her Stockholn syndrome-ish relationship with Chuck as well as overcoming that finally. Maybe Serena could've helped as to bury the hatchet between them. All these friendships seemed so forced at the end, but the one that didn't (Dan) they made her hate? These writers seemed like they didn't even watch what they wrote seasons prior.
Kinda wanted them to be endgame cause it was a real evolution for the Blair character in that she let go of status and wealth but instead she went back to the rich guy.
Dan and Blair are like Stefan and Caroline from TVD ... pure, funny and connected on a much deeper level.
EXACTLYYY
YOU GOT TASTE
Well yes. Except I ship Caroline with Klaus LOL
I would not compare them. Blair and Dan have a chemistry that actually makes the transition from platonic to romantic work, especially because they fell in love once they truly got to know each other and not the ideas they had of each other. Stefan and Caroline just don't... They made great friends but the romance was forced, they already knew each other from the get go. So when people say "they just paired up Dair because they were left" that's how I feel about Steroline. And that statement is so stupid for Dair because they've had subtext since season 1.
Not even the situations are comparable.
Honestly, as much as i want chuck n blair, I cant deny the chemistry with this two. I think Dan's feeling for Blair was much more sincere and pure than his feelings for Serena
Unpopular Opinion: Blair and Chuck were trash, a very toxic relationship.
this is actually a very popular opinion, say it louder
idc what anyone says, the elevator scene was one of the hottest scenes in the entire series!
Dan brought the other side of Blair that we all couldnt get when she with Chuck, in real life person like Blair end up with someone like Dan, so the writer made Chair end game for fan service sake ❤
Dair... my ultimate Roman empire.
Dan and Blair are each other's intellectual equal/pair. Beautiful
1:01 is proof that dan was never supposed to be gossip girl. writers were so dumb in the finale.
from what i remembered Dan shut down Gossip Girl and Georgina hacked it so he's still Gossip Girl
I mean I love Chuck and Blair but let’s be real they were toxic and Dan and Blair were just more healthy . Idk y people seem to always prefer the toxic couples
I’ve watched GG 4 times just for Dair, best relationship in the show
Dan's hair was truly fabulous when he was dating Blair. It's too bad they weren't the predetermined relationship. He lifted her up, intellectually, and she made Dan less judgy.
Idc what anyone says they should’ve been endgame 🤷🏽♂️
They were the only “non-toxic” couple, at least to the GG level. Dan was the ONLY guy who really loved her and protected her, not like Mr. I sold you for an hotel and trade you to my uncle. -- Dan and Blair actually had intelligence chemistry and tension, not like body chemistry she had with Chuck. But Blair had to be Blair and pick the lowest like Chuck. This couple was actually interesting and not predictable
The only healthy couple in Gossip Girl (and they ruined it for the abusive manchild that everyone romanticised - I will bring this grudge to the grave.)
Would have been so much better if they ended up together and that other thing didn't happen.
I'll always be team Dair.
I like Blair and Dan's relationship. He really brought out the sweet humane side of her. I cannot just say human because it was humane as well
Can we all just agree that Chuck and Georgina should’ve been “Gossip Girl?” They might’ve even roped Vanessa and Juliet into it too.
I started watching GG in 2024, sad I never watched it when I was younger. I won’t lie I started liking this show in season 4 when Blair and Dan started hanging out as friends- going to see the movies it kept me surprised for a moment because I know they both hated each other from the first season
When Dan started having feelings for Blair and then they had their first kiss it really reminded me of this recent show “Never have I ever “ how the two lovers used to be enemies, from enemies to friends from friends to lovers
Dan was very much in love with Blair he even wrote a whole book about it - I felt he loved Blair much more than he ever loved Serena. That Serena and Dan relationship was just too rushed right from the first season- I’m sad I didn’t get to watch it then I would have disapproved the ending.
Still in season 5 for now- if Dan and Blair ever break up I will stop watching lol
We'll you wont be watching ever again lol and I actually dont blame you either
I admit it makes a little sense
I think I loved them just because i know it annoyed serena
My favorite couple! ❤
Should've been endgame
My endgame!
I love Dan and Blair!!! 🤪🤍
My favorite relationship in the show even though I knew it wouldn’t last. I was so mad when they ended things
Dan and blair was perfect also nate and jenny were my favs idc
Dan and Blair
Nate and Jenny
Serena and Carter
Chuck and Jail
@@Dash120zspilleddddd
Here I didn't like Serena she also slept with nate that time didn't she think it was wrong and now she is telling to Dan blair is not going to change that is so heartbreaking to you
I stopped watching when they broke these two. I know people shipped the other couples, but for me, Chuck and Serena could go fly a kite and leave Dan and Blair be happy together.
Chuck Bass voice, 'They were prefecture. Blair was calling out to Dan in a manner, she had never done before, with anyone. Season 5 episode 15, is a true marker of something that bloomed to be one of the best scenes in its entire; And not even chuck bass's many scenes with blair, could challenge the magic of Dan and Blair; while everyone was acting there was real chemistry in those moments. After seeing Dan with Blair it was clear, that chuck wasn't her only pairing.
MY FAV SHIP Y'ALL
Idc what people say 😭 dair should have been end game they could have been the enemies to lovers, opposites attract
I love this relationship
Ugh I love them together so so much only reason I keep watching gossip girl over and over. Wish they were endgame. Would kill for a rom-com movie of them.
Dan and Blair always ❤
This should have been end game to show us a healthy relationship
Dan and Blair were a great match sorry but it's true
Shame that writers (also fans) preferred a toxic ship to be endgame
It's crazy how Chair fans can't help but come and spread hate on EVERY SINGLE Dair video. Like watch some Chair content if you love them so much and everyone will be fine about it. Ship wars time should have been left in 2023.
They looks romantic together, eventho Clair is the main character. How i wish they have another love story together. Both have chemistry.
Blair : What if I lost everyone?
Dan : You’ll still have me ♥️
DARE TO DAIR 😭😭😭💞💞💞
Should've been endgame
With Chuck it was like dating herself, while being complimentary, she didn't have to try so hard. With Dan, it's so cute, but they have to try so hard, it's not natural.
i love them as a concept but i feel no chemistry between the actors at all
Leighton Meester got some justice to “Dair”, getting married with a man who looks like very similar and have the same energy as Dan Humphrey: Adam Brody❤
Best couple. He brought the best out of Blair
Chair is still my #1, but Dair are definitely very cute together.
Still can't believe this couple got assassinated 😤
The characters make sense and probably should have ended up together...but the chemistry between the actors is so off. It's so sibling vibes.
That's what I thought 😭
DAIR ALWAYS 😭
So glad I’m not the only one who thinks they should have ended up together.
Best couple ❤
dan and blair❤❤❤❤😊
They are perfect toghether
I enjoy Blair ans Dan together ❤
They’re were so good together omg
Hello,You
PARENTS!!!!
I love this
Currently working on a novel about a pregnant aristocrat falling in love with her bodyguard and I'm only just realizing how much I got inspired by Blair and Dan relationship! They were such a perfect couple. Idc what people say, Dair should have been endgame
This would not cringe me had only Dan NOT been Gossip Girl. Why they ruined his character, being him the Gossip Girl? I really hate they made Dan Gossip Girl. And I just hate the ending, it felt rushed.. which is understandable considering how the last seasons, the storyline just became so messy and all over the place. Nate, who supposed to be main character, had very boring and irrelevant storyline.
And Blair's love life, it's all over the place. There was Dan, there was Louis, who they also ruined the character, then of course, Chuck, who I never wanted for Blair ever since they even started. It was supposed to be Nate and Blair.
They were the best couple imo. They matched each other’s intellect and humour
Blair when she is with Dan is stupid and weak, forgiving him immediately, even with Chuck was quite tolerant but at least he was respected and was not manipulated as it happens with Dan
Please God
Make my future wife looks like leighton Meester
The Best of all my Dair ❤ I miss them so much they should work together soon 😢💟
Eu gostei muito deles dois, não ficou estranho, pq foi saudável e bonito. Mas ambos já amavam outros
FINALLY ♥️💕
The best couple the moust healthy one
Their chemistry was insane 😭😭
Loved them together
They made no sense, should have been Blair + Chuck, Serena + Dan, & Nate + Jenny - best couple was Nate and Jenny
In my opinion, this love track was unnecessary for the show . It was fun to watch when they were best friends and making fun of each other. That was a beautiful friendship evolution . But these love dynamics has overshadowed their friendship.
I always thought they actually never ended up doing it, but now I see they did and Idk how this works later for Serena and him to be a couple again, sort of disgusting.
Dan doesn’t like you despite of who you are , he likes you because who you are!
I LOVED them together so bad but it was always gonna be chuck for me 😅
One relationship that makes me gag
Dan e Blair sempre ❤
She was just so pretty 🎉
Stopped watching when the writers put Blair and Dan together. Cringe, much?
What season did they get together?
season 5
Dan never gave a fuck about her as a love interest. He needed to score her to become part of the league. This show has two parallel realities going on. First you watch it as it is and then you watch everything keeping in mind that Dan is a GG. Mostly Dan is acting to benefit his goal and as a part of his journey he's got to live that life and do some bullshit, forcing himself in situations that is unnatural to him.
yesss!!!
Yessss
Nah they didn't know who gossip girl was gonna be at that point. Their whole original plan for who gossip girl was gonna be got leaked. Dan definitely loved her.
This is also post hic rationalisation
@@GringleTV The point is, you don’t have to think about what the writers wanted to do, because you don’t know, based on the TV series, Dan used every character for his blog, maybe when you look at it for the first time you don’t realize but looking at it again knowing who Gossip Girl you realize
Not the ultimatum-
Yall crying in the comments about Blair and Dan being a couple. So pathetic 🤷🏻♀️
Thankfully Blair has overcome the psychological breakdown she had after the loss of the baby and returned to normal in season 6
The worst and most forced couple of Gossip Girl, people think they are healthy and that there is true love and trust between them, but it’s all false. Dan used Blair for his blog, like he always did with every other girl, he manipulated her all season 5, deliberately keeping her away from Chuck, Serena and Louis the people who cared most about her, making her think they were bad, Like at the bachelor party that blamed Chuck for everything that happened, it was actually Louis' sister. Or at the wedding when he posted the Gossip Girl video, ruined her life, and then blamed Chuck again. Or even when Blair lost the baby and shut herself down, she pushed her away from Louis, Chuck, and even her best friend, Serena. Or when Blair asked him how Chuck was doing and he didn’t tell her he was sick. Or when she asked Louis for help because they were about to publish a story written by Dan where he spoke ill of Blair, and then made her believe that Louis was bad, when he was just doing a good deed. At this point she was convinced that no one except Dan cared about her apart from Dan (which is not true). Then when she tries to escape to divorce him he refuses to tell Serena where they were, even though he was totally aware that she and Chuck were the only ones who could help her, renting a get or something. Meanwhile, Dan was mocking Serena’s feelings, and Blair was insulting and constantly belittling him. Dan assumed that Blair was supposed to be with him, so much so that she blackmailed her, telling her that she would lose him as a friend if she didn’t get with him. And then Blair is so afraid to be alone that she gets involved with him. They may share a passion for literature and movies, but beyond that? There’s nothing else, no passion, no chemistry. Maybe Dan loved Blair, but love isn’t a one-sided feeling, So it couldn’t work because she didn’t love him. Then he didn’t trust her, and then he stalked her and then he cheated on her with his best friend, and then he hid it from her by trying to make her feel guilty about choosing Chuck. Plus in season 6 when he tries to win her back, it’s not out of love, but because he wanted to do the same thing to her that he did to Serena, even if he defames her anyway, and doesn’t admit his mistakes. Plus, Blair is unbearable when she’s with him. I’m not saying other couples are healthy, but I’m saying Dair isn’t.
what dan felt for blair was love. he might have used serena as a way to get into the rich and elite family but with blair it was always true love. i mean who can blame him blair is the queen
Agree through and through. This whole comment section and all the others on Blair's relationships are flocked with Dair's shippers like they have this need to constantly defend their favorite but in reality, Blair's heart has only Chuck. Guess that makes them all butthurt to the point that they can never rest.
