The final three episodes of Season 1 premiered Wednesday with a fan favorite and other cast members from the original Gossip Girl. “Just getting everybody together was so great. We shot that over a few days," says showrunner Joshua Safran, who also worked on the original Gossip Girl. "Sadly, the Waldorf set was struck at the end of the first series and to rebuild it would have cost — because it was a standing set — to rebuild it would have cost as much money as one of our standing sets, which is too much (laughs)... We don’t have the money to do that, to build a set for one episode of that magnitude. So I had to come up with sort of this construction of why they were in Brooklyn Heights, which ends up being one of my favorite gags in the entire series.”
