Lets just admit it: the casts really didn't like each other and HATED the show.

[@thatgirl9532]

Not true. Blake seemed to get a long with Penn even though their exes, Chace and in the beginning believe it or not also Leighton. Blake bought a barbie doll for everyone including Leighton she talked about it in a past interview. In real life, Leighton is really good friends with Jessica( Vanessa) and Michelle (Georgina) and seemed to be friendly with Ed to because Ed spoke highly of Leighton before in past interviews. Ed and Chace used to live together when they shot the show and it seems like Penn was close to Blake and Chase. I think the only person who didn’t like anyone or anyone else didn’t like was Taylor at least the main cast didn’t maybe but i know that Taylor and Connor (Eric) got a long in real life. They probably weren’t the greatest friends but I don’t think they hated each other. I don’t think that’s true. I just think they have different lifestyles and personality so they probably didn’t have a lot in common. Leighton was basically born in prison and lived in a half way house because her mother and father were in prison and she’s always had a rocky relationship with her mother compared to Blake who had a more privileged lifestyle. She had everything growing up even her parents were very successful. It’s like Blake is actually Blair in real life and Leighton is a mix between Serena and Dan in terms of their background and personality. Blake knew everything she was in the moment what places to go, the trends of fashion, food etc... whereas Leighton was more reserved so once she would finish her scenes she would go off set and go read a book in her trailer or something.

The show has A LOT OF FLAWS after the first season. And the lack of diversity was also not good either.

[@titsmcghee6691]

The fact that Chuck and Blair are the most liked couple, and that Chuck Bass is looked at as a hero and Is beloved tells me enough to know that this show is toxic AF. The fans and writers constantly shat all over the lower class characters and glamorized the terrible behaviour of the entitled and ignorant rich characters. Whenever a character like Blair would evolve and shows growth by melding their life with someone like Dan for instance, it was belittled and regression would always follow. Instead of being a show about both sides of the tracks coming together and getting rid of their preconceptions of each other it became a masturbatory fantasy for people who want nothing more in life than to be rich, famous and absolute assholes who take their power out on others.

[@metalh3adqueen]

I hate how everyone keeps seeing Taylor Momsen as the evil one, when she was actually the ONLY one doing what everyone else was thinking. Now its obvious that everyone hates being referred to the show in any way, why blaming Taylor for that when she only did what was the best for her? It clearly was, I mean she has been forced into the stressful acting world since she was like 3 years old. And look at her now. What people refer to as a "glowdown" is actually only her finally being what she wants to be. And she does an amazing job, her voice is incredible and the band is successful. I may be biased bcs I'm a huge fan of the band but I also got to know her through Gossip girl, so everyone should accept her and not blame her for being the problem and being evil bcs she really isn't. The environment was clearly the problem, and you can clearly see that on every other cast member as well. Everyone is fucking done with Gossip girl not only Taylor, so DON'T SHADE HER BECAUSE SHES DIFFERENT. Thank u if u read everything.

[@jolaidowupedro]

I thought that there was something up the moment Jenny started being "the evil one" First of all she was younger than the rest of the cast and second it looked like she was really sad bts and didn't like being there. You can tell the whole environment for her was horrible. Especially since the rest of the cast where saying they didn't like it why should she. As well as that she had to probably do a lot of things she wasn't comfortable with and when she got written off the show it seemed so sudden and unusual. I assumed she probs got another acting job or quite or something but it's just cos the producers wanted her gone. The whole show is an example of privilege white kids and the only coloured main character who got written off too wasn't rich. I don't think there should be a reboot it was good it had its time. The only reason they want is reboot is a marketing move so they can get money because they think all the fans will want to watch it. I hope that even if they do do a reboot it has better morals but if they don't that would be a lot better

[@metalh3adqueen]

@@jolaidowupedro The only reason Jenny was written off was because Taylor Momsen wanted to quit acting and she was "problematic" on set. But I think you're right, she was just really uncomfortable and its very disrespectful from people to hate Taylor because of that. Yes, she caused a lot of trouble and also without all that Jenny would've never become the hated character she is now, but anyone who accuses her for ruining it clearly didn't do enough research about Taylor.

as much as we love how they are on the show it really is toxic and unrealistic to many. this video and the GG reboot made me realize that I’m growing like the og casts, that kind of scene is not their scene anymore in life. it may be exciting at the beginning but in the long run it’ll exhaust you. like highschool, good to look back but ain’t going back...

[@Marilyn2401]

3:40 "They are just creating another toxic enviroment for a new group of teenagers" -LM 👏👏👏

[@reginarichter5502]

not to be rude but this new cast will never beat the real cast they will never be as iconic as blair waldorf or chack bass

[@skyelayon1273]

penn calling out the franchise PERIOD

[@sophial1247]

I can’t believe they didn’t want Nate to play somebody’s dad it would make so many more people watch it!!

[@marinag.2800]

When did Serena shoot someone? I’ve seen the show a million times and don’t remember that

[@tutiegal]

I was literally just thinking the same thing. I just recently rewatched it and I don't remember it either! 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@shihiroikiba6412]

It was the end of season 1, I think. She shot someone by accident while she was high on coke and explains why she went to boarding school

[@char2745]

nah she didn’t shoot someone, the guy overdosed on drugs and started having seizure and then she left him there to die. she never shot anyone idk why it said that!!

[@brandysmith7274]

That's exactly what I was thinking. Serena NEVER shot anyone. I've watched it a million times . Heck I'm watching it now. 🤷🏻‍♀️😂

[@lisacohen5022]

Regarding Leighton, she didn’t say the last long ass sentence you said about the producers having to create a healthier environment

[@uroobasalahuddin9877]

only one i care about is chuck

[@kendy_m1983]

And blairrr

[@kuramacabre]

I am interested in the reboot because the GG phenomenon has more sense now because of social media. All the characters were just pawns, buffoons exhibited to entretain society (being GG just a platform for it). It makes total sense that GG would rise from the ashes.

[@leoscream]

It’s so sad that the environment for many of our favorite shows are toxic☹️

[@biancan482]

It actually makes me feel better that they hated the show to.

[@charliewilkins8888]

I watched the original..... I doubt I'll watch the reboot

[@muntaqaak458]

Even though I hate some of the characters, I respect and love all the actors of Gossip Girl. They have their opinion. Blake Lively one was the same as mine. I hated Serena too. My only favourite characters were Blair, Chuck, Rufus and Nate.

[@chipmunkpark8826]

For me Gossip girl it's not about white priviledge, but more like a RICH priviledge haha

[@cameliavictoria5508]

From my opinion, it’s both really

[@loveitftw]

Mmmh yes agreed.

[@RaverFlav]

To be fair, Taylor Momsen seemed to run into the same issue that the character of Nate did: she had no actual control over her life, being a child actor at such a young age. I think her flipping the bird to Hollywood and taking the music route was the smartest move for her as she is insanely successful in doing so, and she clearly enjoys it over acting

[@juliawenceslao4505]

it would be iconic to see the non-judging breakfast club become parents but are still rocking the upper east side🤧

[@carolineviolet9092]

“Many would like to see her return as Jenny Humphrey” I’m sorry but who is that please keep her as far away as possible

[@nikkis7375]

People think it’s going to be the same plot, with all the problematic, racist stuff happening and it’s not lol it’s inclusive and modern so I’m here for it.

[@jessicafisher4174]

They will never beat the OG GG! Blair could make this whole new cast leave town and change their names faster than dorota says "Miss Blair" And don't get me started on this Walmart version of Chuck 🙄 I'm sure Ed is embarrassed and disgusted at the wanna be knock off. They should off based this after the original using the OG cast's kids and actually invited the originals to be involved.

[@MelissaAnonz]

Ngl Serena was the most annoying character, like I got angry watching

[@zubkozhenya7955]

For me it was Dan , I hated him since the beginning of the show.

[@maddie.officalzyt5244]

I don’t want there to be a reboot. Honestly- sewing whoever did this. 😁

[@leslys6205]

Check out this Pick A Card channel! kzbin.info/door/W6Mhx_ZOXb4q0EkNywrNRg

[@2245908765]

A reboot wouldn’t be worth watching to me without Chuck and Blair being married with kids and having the other main characters incorporated somehow and going off of that. Mostly because that’s how the show ended.

[@latenightwithsara]

Is anybody concerned about what the entire cast had to say?? Bro the backstage of the Gg filming was bad ...

[@llimone3338]

You can tell the producer of the video never watched gg. Nobody would say he fell in love with Chuck the first time he appeared on screen lol

[@loveitftw]

As a die-hard chuck/blair fan, I can confirm that statement. No one fell in love with him at the beginning lol

[@elisagita91]

I think they said these things because they don't want seen as their character in GG and get asked a lot about that.. GG is iconic but life must go on..

[@rockstardiaries]

A blog would never work today and gg being on social media seems boring and cliché. How the hell are they gonna make it work?

[@ritaramos120]

unpopular opinion: (according to the comments) i loved Serena from the beginning to the end, BUT there were some really shitty things she did that i didn't like/hated tho anyways, i've always admired Blake Livevly as a person and her work and i always will

[@muntaqaak458]

The only thing I loved Serena's part is Blake Lively's Performance and fashion stuff.

[@Stevetrevor360]

I watched every episode of the old gossip girl and I totally get what Blake and Leighton said... The storylines were very immoral and shallow and so were their characters... Not a good thing at all to pass on to the new generations... And when Leighton revealed the toxic work environment it clearly shows how badly the show runners use these artists as tools to mint money at their expense

[@monsieurmike2072]

Been there done that. The End!...XOXO!✌

[@MessyMind]

The only one that actually made sense as Gossip Girl was Penelope

[@loveitftw]

Underrated character ^^

[@jessicagrassergrasser8663]

its funny that every 'opinion' they got about the reboot was quotes NOT EVEN TALKING ABOUT THE REBOOT

[@helloeveryone7769]

I wish they wont do the reboot

[@thatgirl9532]

It’s happening they are shooting Rn. It looks awful tho. I’m only gonna watch because Thomas Doherty is in it!

[@sully7035]

It’s also sad that the one thing all the original cast has in common is their feeling that the set environment was toxic and unhealthy. I’m curious as to what Jessica Szohr, aka the only poc, would have had to say.

[@BloodyRegrets]

It doesn’t sound like most hate the reboot (they haven’t even seen it) so much as they are worried about the younger actors. Also Taylor quit she wasn’t fired and she hated acting.

[@JadedTomboy]

I blame the network for the toxicity of each of their shows no matter how good the shows were P.S Penn Badgley is one of my favourite actors so I don`t care what role he plays he always hits a home run no matter what character he plays

[@sarina4903]

If the old characters arent there im not watching the new gg.

[@danielalizcano6648]

8:32 I don't think they will they're not really becoming iconic, I don't even think memorable or likeable, which is probably a good thing because they can become known actors and actresses but still have open possibilities to interpret different roles threw out their career

[@joshuaserrato3495]

Here’s a better reboot idea. Jenny Humphrey is now an adult and has 2 teenage children. A 16 year old daughter and a 14 year old son. She’s fairly successful in the fashion industry and has come a long way since her high school years. She’s a single mother and it’s hinted that her ex husband was a cheater and sex addict. Jenny Humphrey moves back to the upper East side but wants her kids to be careful because she knows how toxic that world is. Nate Archibald has just been named most eligible bachelor and he has found success working in politics, but scandals are never avoidable for him. The reboot focuses on Jenny’s kids and their classmates who are the new targets of the new Gossip Girl while also focusing on Nate and Jenny the way the original focused on Lilly and Rufus. The original cast returns as special guest stars in special episodes. Serena returns humbled and has the opportunity to redeem her selfish behavior by occasionally mentoring Jenny’s out of control daughter who is also Serena’s niece. Blair and Chuck’s son is away at college but he comes in occasionally to stir up trouble.

[@StephTheYah]

The new characters look a hot mess

[@Stormy_Cloud]

Why does that girl have a shaved head. And how come the only TWO male main characters arw BOTH gay? Hookups generate gossip, therefore there is no juicy gossip.

[@StephTheYah]

@@Stormy_Cloud ikr 🤦‍♀️ I feel like they're trying to portray the newer generation but it strays too far from the original cast. 🙄 shouldve just made a brand new series instead of slapping gossip girl on it.

[@thatgirl9532]

@@Stormy_Cloud Thomas Doherty isnt gay and he’s a main character. I think he’ll play a younger version of Chuck with his accent 🤣or maybe Nate with an American accent obviously with a different name 🤔

[@chelseanoelanihale]

Definitely won’t be watching, the show’s time has passed and I don’t think the new cast could live up to the iconic nature of the OG’s.

[@lia-ts2hx]

sorry but the reboot isn’t gonna work out at all it ain’t the same thing if the original characters aren’t there

[@underated17]

I don’t agree with drug use or all of those things, but we are not to judge others. This is real life. People forgive people who have done drugs, we don’t know the reasons why they used them.

[@olivia7594]

i mean unless the reboot goes on for like 6 seasons again, i don't think the new cast has to worry about getting stuck in character if that makes sense

[@DanielCantinero]

I kind of feel bad for all the actors.... It makes me wonder what kind of toxic environment were they subjected to to. They all seem traumatized by it.

[@shannonhennessy6341]

hey!!! taylor was asked to be written off the show to peruse her music career.

[@tirzavanboxtel5814]

There shouldn't be a reboot. They end it just fine. A reboot would destroy the show. I love/like the end. Just leave it that way. I understand Blake and the rest sm

[@ShadowKeem]

It's interesting how the reasons we loved the show are the very reasons the actors don't want to come back.

[@jakechapman1442]

Chuck , Blair and Dan were awesome characters in Gossip Girl series I Would love see them in the reboot

[@ambervandergarde4318]

the title is about why the 'Cast Hates The Reboot' but they only talk negatively about the original gossip girl.

[@ponybrown13]

You can kind of tell from season 2 when the story began to trail, that Blake and Penn weren’t too into playing the character. From a certain point writing was C- at best, and it was pain staking to watch, can’t imagine how she would’ve felt portraying it.
