"Gossip Girl" (https://www.nickiswift.com/22024/untold-truth-gossip-girl/) first premiered on The CW in 2007 to 3.5 million viewers and quickly gained traction, with outlets like New York Magazine (https://nymag.com/arts/tv/features/46225/) dubbing the series "the greatest teen drama of all time" less than a year later. With that kind of reception, it's not surprising that the show was picked up for a further five seasons, eventually drawing to a close in 2012 after 121 episodes.
Within those six seasons, a variety of outrageously dramatic storylines are shown through some of Manhattan's elite... and not-so-elite. The show chronicles the lives of the Brooklyn-dwelling Humphrey siblings, Dan (Penn Badgley) and Jenny (Taylor Momsen), as they become embroiled with rich kids Serena van der Woodsen (Blake Lively), Blair Waldorf (Leighton Meester), Chuck Bass (Ed Westwick), and Nate Archibald (Chace Crawford). "Gossip Girl" follows them from high school to adulthood, depicting the dramatic ups and downs of their lives, friendships, and relationships, while narrated by Kristen Bell as the titular internet troll. From inappropriate affairs and royal relationships to parental issues, fake relatives, and scheming con artists, this show has it all.
"Gossip Girl" remains just as popular over a decade on from its series finale. And while the 2021 reboot has undoubtedly pointed out some of its glaring errors, there's a reason it is still so beloved. We've compiled the top 15 "Gossip Girl" episodes of all time, so sit back and enjoy the nostalgia.
